Speaking from personal experience, probably the best way to improve your vocabulary is by studying a foreign language, as many languages borrow vocabulary from each other. One of the most difficult tasks when trying to find that "perfect word" is knowing where to start looking, and knowing (for example) Latin, French, or German synonyms can help when scanning the dictionary or thesaurus.

Additionally, signing up for services such as a "word of the day" RSS feed, particularly those that offer context and etymology over a bare definition, can be very useful.
