INSPIRING INSTAS TO FOLLOW IN 2016
PAXYSHIA — FASHION, BEAUTY & SELF LOVE
If you’re interested in getting your dose of plus sized fashion inspiration, gorgeous makeup looks, and an abundance of self love, Paxyshia is your girl! Not only is her fashion sense out of this world, so is her kindness expressed to her following that has definitely come well deserved.
BEAUTY.FAM — REPRESENTATIONAL BEAUTY & TIPS
In an extremely white washed society upheld in unrealistic beauty standards, BEAUTYFAM is a fresh breath of air. With it’s incredibly diverse community of beauty gurus ready at hand with advice, it makes finding yourself represented less difficult. If beauty advice and tips wasn’t enough to sell you on this account, they even have #BEAUTYFAMFRIDAY, a way to showcase otherwise overlooked beauty created by their following.
ROWANBLANCHARD — SELF AWARENESS & FEMINISM
Rowan Blanchard, an actress most commonly known for her role as Riley Matthews in Girl Meets World, made a splash in 2015 for unapologetically learning to love herself all while using her platform to speak on any matters regarding intersectional feminism — Quite the feet for a 14 year old. Nonetheless, her Instagram is just another form of inspiration for anyone seeking it.
WILLDARBYSHIRE — TRAVEL & PHOTOGRAPHY
Will Darbyshire first gained his following through his YouTube, where he posts very thought provoking and artistically pleasing videos at his leisure. If you’re looking to get regular updates on his life, though, the place to look is his Instagram. Through perfectly edited photographs, you can enviously gain inspiration for travels. I never wanted to visit Auckland until he posted it’s scenery on his feed! Thanks Will.
WITANDDELIGHT_ — HOME & LIFESTYLE
If you’re anything like me, having home decor inspiration is key to a happy day. There’s something so satisfying about the way Kate Arends of WITANDDELIGHT photographs her home. BONUS: Her dog Winnie makes countless cameos, and dogs are never a bad thing. C’mon now!
AMANDLASTENBERG — #BLACKLIVESMATTER
Amandla Stenberg is a teenage activist making waves in the media for being so shamelessly educated and willing to raise her voice for others — something many celebrities shy away from for fear of consequences.
ARTCEAE — ART, PHOTOGRAPHY & LGBT+
With posts ranging from her art and photography to support fot the LGBT+ community, Rosi is an all around inspiration. As a very forgetful artist who tends to go weeks without picking up the pencil, following artists so I can regularly see their art in my feed is important!
SILVERSPIES — FOOD ENTHUSIAST
Food photography is one of my many loves, so I couldn’t end this post without including my top inspiration in that department. Juliette’s feed is 99% her eats and will 100% make you drool out of hunger and food envy.
