The first thing I did when I moved to Myrtle Beach was set up my magazine subscriptions: InStyle, Glamour, Marie Claire and Elle.  But I must admit they had been piling up.  Maybe with Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. I feel I get enough inspiration, but I finally decided to go through them.  I was flipping through the October issue of InStyle (I told you they were piling up) and came across one of my favourite sections: Color Crash Course.  I've been inspired so many times to try new colour combinations and, of course, they always work.  I had been thinking of how to style this gorgeous green coat I had just bought, so I was so excited to see the colour featured and decided to pair it with 'steel' head to toe and I love the combo!

So although Instagram is filled with #inspo everywhere, nothing quite beats a good ole fashion magazine.  I won't be letting them pile up again.
