Where do you look for style inspiration? If your Instagram feed, Facebook page and blog reading list are full of people who look just like you, you’re not looking far enough.

And who doesn’t need to learn something new?
Below are a handful of black women I’ve been following for a while for regular style inspiration. Check out what they’re wearing. Listen to what they’re saying. Engage with their social media posts that speak to you. Commit to learning something new from someone new.
