Using Google Blog Search for Inspiration

I recently told you about Google Blog search... a Google search that searches only blogs. It's great if you want to find a review, idea, suggestion, etc. from a blogger (a real person) instead of a company or whatever. I recently purchased this trench vest from Old Navy on clearance for about $6 (woot woot!) and wanted some ideas on how to wear it. By performing a regular Google search for "Old Navy trench vest" I found mostly shopping results with a few blogs mixed in. By switching to a blog search, I quickly and easily found many ideas for my new vest that I could add to my Pinterest style board, either ways that ladies had worn the vest, or Polyvore type boards they had made.











I also tried just searching Pinterest using the term trench vest. I did find some result that I pinned too, but the blog search was the best. I have already worn my vest twice this week.

This isn't a sponsored post or anything, I just want you to be aware of this tool to help you be creative!
