Dress up your Instagram feed

We all love nothing more than a glimpse into the lives of our favourite fashion folk so thank goodness for Instagram. Make room on your Instagram feed for 6 new stylish people you may not be following yet, but definitely should. From fashion bloggers sharing their outfit of the day to editors and socialites taking pictures of their Alexander Wang pebble-leather ankle boots, this Insta list will introduce you to style stars who’s famous blogs have expanded into mini business empires.

TheMan Repeller

Leandra Medine is an American author and style blogger if there ever was one. The bold New Yorkers famous motto, "Good fashion is about pleasing women, not men, so as it happens, the trends that we love, men hate. And that is fantastic," makes her one of the most influential trendsetters. This statement resonates with me because I do not dress to please people (especially men) nor do I foster the idea that fashion is about pleasing people. The Man Repeller is a humorous website for serious fashion where bold statements are the norm. You’ll find Medine on her Instagram feed rocking androgynous suits and colourful-layered looks without forgetting to slap on a reckless number of accessories. I can picture the reactions of men who might see her walking down the street in something that might look like a Halloween costume to them. Yet, she teaches women not to give a shit what anyone thinks about their outfits, which she exemplified when she wore, a white moto jacket designed by Rebecca Miinkoff on her wedding day.  I strive to one day have the confidence to put pieces of clothing together the way she does.
