Chances are you shop online – it’s probably the easiest (read: laziest), most comfortable and super convenient way to get cute stuff. In many cases, online shopping even yields rarified clothes, shoes, accessories and vintage finds you can’t get anywhere else.
But sometimes, you just want a change of pace. Sometimes, browsing through your online shopping cart just seems so passé. Enter the Instagram shopping experience!
Lots of online retailers nowadays boast bright and colorful IG accounts; in an effort to target a tech-savvy, over-connected clientele, many clothiers are branching out into the land of selfies and hashtags.
The very best accounts, I think, meet certain important criteria:
- Frequent posts
- High-resolution images
- Free giveaways and special deals for followers
- That “it” factor – the account’s sheer awesomeness makes you want to follow!
So, with that being said, here are my picks for some of Instagram’s best Insta-Shops, for the fashion and price-conscious shopper.
1. @PrincessPollyBoutique – Go here for girly luxe at super affordable prices. Also offers worldwide shipping.
