OUTFIT: Thursday, 15th December 2011

Today I had to leave the house earlier than I would have liked. It was so cold. I think the temperature drops a few degrees each day because no day is like the previous one. And we can only expect it to get colder until about mid-January.

So today's outfit was mostly to keep me warm than anything else. And this coat, scarf and boots served their intended purpose very well.

I love the colours of this scarf. They always add some cheer on a dull, cold day like today.

To further ensure that I don't run to the market to shop for "winter clothes" (a good enough excuse for me to shop, not that I need any!) I'm using some of my summer clothes and piling on the layers.

I bought these boots a few winters back and I'm actually shocked that they've lasted this long. You see I was a bit sceptical when I bought them as I had always bought my boots back home in Kenya and these were the first I got in India.

I bought this sweater in Ngara on my last trip home. I loved the fact that it's 100% wool!! It comes with a belt too but today I opted not to wear it.

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.

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: Drop-waist LBD

Hi, come closer, let me whisper something. Wearing this dress had me feeling myself! I felt like a Queen. Like I could conquer the world. I felt an inner strength that I hadn't felt in a long time. You know how they say your appearance plays a big role in how you feel about yourself? I'm here to tell you that this is so true. I'm not saying that we should all abandon hard work and using our brains and only concentrate on our looks but if you want a simple fix on a day when you feel, to put it simply, meh, dress up. I had been thinking about a drop waist dress with a flouncy hemline ever since I watched Lydia Millen's edit with Karen Millen. I can't explain why. I don't even think there was a dress or skirt like this in the collection but I just thought the idea of this silhouette would be ultra chic. My options for styling centered around boldness. This red sweater, though worn to stave off the morning chill, provided me with a loudness you'll hardly get fro...
