Whether it’s to distract yourself from the horrors of a morning commute, to give you some entertainment on a lazy Sunday morning or to communicate with your bestie via tagging them in memes that are ‘just so you two’, Instagram is our go-to app. And, because we can never follow too many people our follower list is growing quicker than Mo Farah pacing down the final straight in Rio.
To keep you ahead of the ‘who to follow’ game, we’ve rounded up 6 of our current favourite Instagram accounts that will leave you envious, laughing and hungry…
Deliciously Stella
No, you didn't read it wrong. We're not talking about Deliciously Ella, but rather her hysterical counterpart Stella. Fresh off the train from Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Stella's Instagram will leave you feeling guilt-free as she makes her green juice using a Mint Viennetta, finds gym motivation by using pushups to take a sip from her bottle of wine and gets her protein fix from Haribo eggs. Now this is a health craze we can get on board with...
Hershesons
If you're stuck in a bit of a rut with your hair, then Hershesons is the account to follow. Word of warning here: even if you're content with your hair, it's safe to say you won't be three pictures deep. Leading hairdressing salon and with some of our favourite styling tools in their repertoire, when it comes to hair you're in safe hands with Hershesons. From perfectly undone 'I-just-got-out-of-bed' waves to big, bouncy blowouts, you'll be sure to have hair envy.
Milly Cook Book
With GBBO season finally upon us, we're dusting down our aprons and our work surfaces all in the name of baking. However, it's not just Mary Berry who is our idol but also Nicola Millbank, aka 'MillyCookBook'. From snaps of oozing golden egg yokes over crispy sourdough bread to bowls of decadent whipped cream and melted chocolate, you'll log out of Instagram salivating and making immediate restaurant reservations no matter the time of day.
Paintbox Nails
London Fashion Week is upon us so if there's ever a time to experiment with our nails, it's now. Heralded for their modern approach to manis, Paintbox's nail designs are bold, chic and certainly make a statement. Take a bit of nail inspiration from the pros and you'll have perfect #manimonday nails each week.
Glossybox
When it comes to Instagram you have to be a little shameless with your self promotion (that's what # is there for, after all) so we're adding ourselves to the list. Whether you want to uncover the latest beauty launches that hit our desk, the tips and tricks on how to use your monthly Glossybox products or get your hands on beauty bundles so good you'll want to set up multiple Instagram accounts to enter, we're the page for you.
The Estée Edit
The Estée Edit is fast becoming one of our favourite makeup brands...ever. Aimed at millennials and backed by none other than Kendall Jenner, the range consists of everyday staples as well as innovative, colourful and forward-thinking beauty products. With an Instagram account as cool as their covergirl, you'll be revamping your makeup bag and look in no time.
