LIFE UPDATES


Hi all!!! I hope you are having a good week. 


According to my blog schedule, I'm supposed to be doing a post on accessories today. But so much has happened in my life over the last couple of months that I thought I'd share a little with you.

This is my latest profile picture.
My brother has mentioned a number of times that I am scary. I don't know what he means by this but I do know I have a terrible temper. I don't get angry quickly but when I do it's really bad. In a bid to get a hold over my temper I've decided to take these words to heart.
And when I do open my mouth to speak, I'm going to be very careful with what I say because people's reputations get ruined and their self-confidence goes down with every hurtful word I utter.


Sometimes I sit back and wallow in the mistakes I've made in the past and get myself down for no reason. But with time I'm starting to forgive myself and move on because I know I'm better than that.
I have so many plans for my life and sometimes I fall in the trap of speaking about them to all and sundry trying to get their approval. Then I read this and I realized that my decisions are mine and nobody elses.
I'm getting to work on my plans. This means I have to take all the sacrifices involved in my stride. Doubts may come in but I will overcome and move forward like a good Christian soldier.





Happy Wednesday!!!

A labour of love: Long days, bee stings and a global premiere

“Amkeni” roughly translates to “Rise Up” in Kiswahili. This is the call of Chambuko Amkeni, a community-led conservation group involved in mangrove restoration and protection. In 2025, I had the honour of working with them to document their journey on women’s leadership in coastal and marine conservation, climate change adaptation and the blue economy, for a collaboration between Mission inclusion and the BBC StoryWorks'   for the   Living Legacy Series . This was my first time working on a project of this magnitude not to mention one that would have a global audience. To say this has been one of the highlights of the last two years is an understatement. Just thinking about it, my heart swells with pride. I feel like a mother watching her baby grow and come of age (please don't tell my daughter this!). With members of the Chambuko Amkeni Group Leading the production of Amkeni with my amazing colleagues was a true labour of love. A vision come to life thanks to the support o...

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) ...

Miss Elly...1st Outfit Post

Once Elly became old enough to wear a variety of clothes that did not include rompers, I got so excited to finally be able to style this little girl. In fact, two weeks ago I went shopping for her and I had to stop myself from buying everything I lay my eyes on. She hasn't mastered walking yet although she likes to show off that she can stand without support (she expects you to cheer her on) so I still have to factor in crawling when I am shopping for and dressing her. This dress and tights is a typical Sunday outfit. Elly's grandma is so kind as to send me loads of clothes for baby girl and the packages usually contain tights and dresses and this dress was one such gift. I paired it with some stockings and a long-sleeved top to combat the cold. A sweater did make an appearance but baby girl, being her fussy little self, had it removed. She is photographed here playing with her uncle. She can hardly stand still long enough to be photographed so this was a luc...
