HOW TO: Go Denim Less During the Weekend

I know many people say that during the weekend you should unwind and relax and this is reflected in their choice of dress. You store away your suits and pull out the denim. But what if you are tired of wearing blue jeans every Saturday or Sunday??? You can turn to khaki!! And just because it's the weekend doesn't mean that you throw your style out the window!!!! You can be casual yet stylish!!!
I wore this outfit last Saturday when I had a lunch date with one of my very close friends.I've worn this outfit before almost exactly as it is but I wasn't quite pleased with the turn out. So I decided to give it another go and tweak it here and there to see if it will be interesting and I must say I loved it.
I paired my army bubble skirt with a white t-shirt and my mustard coloured sweater. Then I added chocolate brown leggings because it was a little chilly in the morning. Adding leggings to a shorter skirt is a great way to transition your summer clothes into winter.

To accessorize I wore my black ankle boots that have become a wardrobe staple!!! These shoes are so comfortable!! I can walk in them the whole day and not get sore feet. I added my black belt to add some interest to the outfit, and carried my metallic clutch. I finally got something metallic!!! I'm so happy. Anyway, moving on, for jewellery I chose my black chandelier earrings, cream coloured bangles, a black ring and black bead necklace.

While walking in town it suddenly hit me, why is everybody wearing blue jeans??!!! Thus I came up with a theme for this post. I think I'll dye mine a different colour. Blue jeans are too common.

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) ...

Father's Day Meal Idea

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. With Father's Day coming up this weekend, I thought it would be a fun idea to share an idea of a meal that you can make for Father's Day. Butter Chicken This is one of my favourite Indian recipes. I like it because it doesn't need too many spices, you can do without the chilli and the chicken and gravy just melt in your mouth. Ingredients: Chicken (you can opt for boneless chicken) 2 tablespoons of yoghurt Red chilli powder to taste (optional) Crushed ginger and garlic Garam masala Tumeric powder Onions Tomatoes Butter/Cooking Oil Cashew nuts Salt Marinate the chicken: Place the chicken in a bowl, add yoghurt, red chilli powder, crushed ginger and garlic, garam masala and salt. Make the tomato gravy: In a pan, heat the oil. Saute onions until translucent. Add tomatoes and sprinkle some salt. Cook until they turn soft and mushy. Add red chilli powder, garam masala and cashew nuts. Fry until...

Celebrity Style Crush | Beyonce's Maternity Style

She might be expectant but Beyonce's maternity style has inspired me beyond words. I am loving the colours and prints, the ripped denim, colours and boho vibe that she is showcasing. Be it in jeans or a fancy gown, Queen Bey always looks put together. And does anyone understand how she wears heels when she is pregnant?? Maternity style tips: Opt for colour. Colour will cheer you up and brighten your outfit at the same time. Even if you opt for a black ensemble, add a pop of colour in the form of a coat or with your accessories. Long and flowy dresses don't necessarily have to be frumpy. Figure-hugging maxis or those with an empire waist will be both comfortable and flattering. Add fun accessories like statement necklaces, bags and shoes with interesting details like a message or embellishment. When wearing loose flowing tops, opt for fitted lowers like jeans or leggings to add some proportion. Photo Credits: 1 , 2 You m...
