DIY: Little Black Dress


 So last week I took out this dress which I'd bought a while back and made up my mind to change it. I'd been unable to wear it when I got it because there was something about it that I didn't like.
So I took out my scissors and cut off about 2 inches and voila! I had a better version of the dress. I'm really excited as this is my first do-it-yourself project.
Winter is kicking in here and the nights are quite cold. I wore this to a party and paired it with stockings and boots, it was a short notice and I didn't have time to get the boots that I had wanted to wear it with. So these ones had to serve the purpose. I added the sweater and necklace to add some colour and not look too dull. I'm looking forward to dressing up this dress in different ways!

ABOUT

Hi, I'm Audrey. Welcome to Inches To Style☺ How it started I fell in love with fashion at an early age. In fact, I wanted to be a model and when I realised that I wouldn’t make the cut because of my height, I decided that I would become a fashion designer. I’d been making clothes for my dolls for years so I knew that was a career path I would love to pursue.  I didn’t study fashion nor did I become a fashion designer but my love for clothes and putting outfits together stuck with me.  On September 12, 2011 I wrote my first blog post, after I discovered the world of fashion blogs and got hooked. I thought to myself, “I can do this! I like writing and I like fashion, so why not?” And so Inches To Style was born. What to expect from the blog At first, I wanted this blog to be a source of inspiration for anyone looking to up their style game. As time progressed and my personal style and lifestyle has evolved, I found the name of my blog quite fitting as I’m moving inches (closer) ...

What I wore: Light florals

Happy new month! I went clothes shopping earlier this year and made sure to buy dresses that weren't black. I love black dresses but lately I've been craving a little more colour in my wardrobe.  Florals and lighter colours are always a great idea when its warmer. When you think summer, you automatically think of light breezy fabrics and flowers in bloom. This is what this dress represents for me.  I loved the light blue colour and the tie-waist which mean I can wear it through all my weight fluctuations (I tend to lose and put on weight quite frequently).  Keeping to the light colour theme, I paired the dress with some light coloured sneakers.  Thank you for stopping by.

What I Wore: Denim and Boots

Baby, it's cold out. I opened the door today and couldn't believe how cold it was. Makes today's outfit post all the more appropriate☺ Denim has to be my favourite go-to piece when it's cold whether it's the old school type or jeggings. They keep you warm and can be paired with anything and everything. And now that working from home has become the thing, and I don't own sweatpants, denim is number one on my what to wear list. I paired these high-waisted jeans with a grey long-sleeved top and navy trench coat. If I was to wear this outfit out, I would have paired them with these black boots. I felt that they helped complete the whole winter vibe. Outfit details: Jeans, top, coat: Thrifted (Gikomba) Boots: Online (Lanem Shoe Closet/Facebook) Thank you for stopping by.
