InStyle

Every month I look forward to passing by the magazine rack at stores to see the latest edition of InStyle. To me, this is the IDEAL magazine. The pages of InStyle cover a variety of topics ranging from fashion, cooking, beauty, travel, celebrities and entertaining just to name a few.

This month, funny girl Tina Fey graced the cover of InStyle. Each month, InStyle does a great job of choosing from a broad variety of cover girls. The magazine does not only feature a buzzworthy actress. It features famous people ranging from TV and movie actresses, musicians, models, athletes and more. The magazine also always has an interesting profile story on the cover girl that lets readers into their lives to find out information they might not have know before.

One of my favorite sections of the magazine is "your Look/ Instant Style." The section takes one article of clothing and shows you various ways to wear it for different occasions. For example, the April edition took a white shirtdress and created fully styled outfits that were "structured" and "dressy." The feature includes photos, pairs the clothing article with accessories, shoes and other clothing, and explains why the outfit works.  These pages often give me tips on how I can wear a basic clothing article in a new way.

Each month, I also enjoy reading "Her 10 Best Ever!" in InStyle. The section takes a celebrity and shows a two-page layout of the top 10 outfits she has ever worn. The pages always consist of amazing fashion choices and beautiful dresses and other outfits.

I highly recommend InStyle to anyone! The magazine definitely has a section for everyone. This month's issue is worthwhile because it is "The Color Issue" and is filled with pages of colorful fashion and ways to update your wardrobe's color palette. Instyle.com has some great sections on various topics. One especially entertaining feature lets you upload a photo of your face and try on different celeb hairstyles- the perfect tool if you want to try a new haircut!
