I’ve been readying InStyle magazine for years. To me, it’s like one of my fashion bibles. I love to see all the styles and colors splashed on the pages of the magazine, but I have been hesitant to venture out of my black-on-black fashion style. With InStyle’s challenge to discover this season’s spring colors, I now have a shopping list full of not only styles to try, but fabulous colors with which to experiment.

Magazine Overload
I recently used some airlines miles to subscribe to several of my favorite magazines. And today, I hit the motherload! I received not one, not two, but FIVE of my favorite magazines. Talk about magazine overload! 1. GLAMOUR Can I just say that I have a crush on Sandra Bullock? Surely I’m not alone, right? She “sped” into our hearts and “while you were sleeping”, gave a “two week notice” that she was all about “the proposal.” And while “hope floats”, she charmed us and won “Miss Congeniality.” Then for “28 days”, she tried to figure out the “divine secrets […]
