What I Wore | Grecian Pink

The warm weather for me means that my dresses can finally come out to play, showcasing their beauty without being swamped by coats and scarves. This dress makes me think of Greece. Its overall style is quite Grecian, don't you think? I tried to bring back old school fashion blogger vibes by colour blocking it with these suede turquoise wedges. But you know me, some black had to feature somewhere to calm my soul so I added a black statement necklace and handbag.

I've really been enjoying the warmer weather not so much the dehydration and extra dry skin and hair that comes with it. Last year when there seemed to be no respite from the cold season, I could only dream of January (who does that? lol!) and the sun and getting all my dresses out to play. Granted, I wore this in December when it finally started getting warm, hence the Christmas decorations but it's still season appropriate.

All in all, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. It's one of those dresses that I know I will keep for a long time.

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: Cropped Sunday

Hi all!! Happy new week! My love for crop tops has reached an ultimate high. So much so that I got one of my old t-shirts and made a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) crop top. I wore it yesterday, paired with my blue maxi skirt. I added a scarf, heels and a clutch to complete the outfit. With the weather being as confused as it is, I have all my clothes on standby. There are days when I choose warmer ones and others, like yesterday when I go for something more summery. I have had these box braids for three weeks now and I must say, I am still in love with them. And, I’m becoming a pro at holding them in a bun. I now want to look for a new way to style them.

OUTFIT: Warmth In A Trench and Ankle Boots

This was one of those days when you dress up and realize your outfit is too dull. I had worn black trousers, a chocolate brown turtle neck and a black trench coat then I realized that the dull colours were too much. So I added this coat, sort of like peplum, and added this red scarf for added colour. I layered the black trousers with a pair of thick stockings because their fabric is too thin for the cold. I didn’t feel much like accessorizing so I just put on simple earrings and a scarf. I wore black ankle boots. The boots have a block heel which up until yesterday I had been wearing only to and from church. But yesterday was a changing point in my life. These boots have joined my category of comfortable heels to wear while walking around in town. They were a gift from my mum a number of years ago and to this day they are still in good condition. Now I’m curious, what are your go to outfits when it’s cold? What colours do you gravitate towar...
