Instagram Fashion Accounts To Follow Today

By Janey Dike on August 19, 2014

Everyone knows about the fashion blogs they can follow online, but what about the Instagram fashion accounts dedicated to style?

In a world of individuals sharing personal tips, opinions and ideas over the internet, it isn’t hard to find articles, blogs, and photo galleries featuring outfit ideas and finds of the day.

Instagram offers a unique online outlet for the fashion world. The medium allows for fast information in the form of pictures and quick captions. Looking through accounts can give you outfit inspiration, ideas on where to shop, information about giveaways, and links to more information.

Instagram can be more convenient for some users looking for fashion news and advice because of its simple layout, the ease of on-the-go access, and the aspect of social networking.

Being able to follow accounts that you like will keep you automatically connected to their newest updates and information as posts show up in your newsfeed. Here are just a few fashion accounts on Instagram to help you fill your closet and get creative with what you already own.

@ASOS: Asos.com is an online store featuring women’s and men’s fashions. You may have browsed through the site’s sale section or checked out one of the featured boutique stores from around the world, but did you know the company has an Instagram account?

The fashion account posts pictures of outfits for followers to get stylish inspiration and gives shout-outs to ASOS personal stylists.

If you like a certain stylist, you can simply follow him or her to keep getting updates and advice that meets your interests. The best part is that if you see a pair of sunglasses, shorts, or shoes that you love, you can just follow the links and find the product on the ASOS website.

@NastyGal: This fashion account also represents an online store. Nastygal.com is a fairly popular site offering stylish and unique women’s fashions.

The Instagram posts feature a lot of vintage items and bold products with innovative designs. While some of the fashions might seem intimidating to buy and wear because of their originality (leaving you to wonder, “But can I pull this off???”), the fashion account makes them a more realistic product for users to purchase.

Followers get to see how to incorporate clothing and accessories into everyday outfits. Seeing the models in outside environments and making the creative apparel work encourages users to let their creativity flow when it comes to trends.

Sometimes all a fashionista needs is a little inspiration to get started.

@Etsy: Etsy continues to rise in popularity as people search for original, handmade, or vintage items.

As with most online shopping websites, the vast amount of products can be overwhelming, especially if you aren’t completely sure what you are looking to buy.

Fortunately for Etsy.com lovers, the Instagram account regularly features designers and artists who contribute to the site by selling their products. Many of the posts shine a spotlight on unique jewelry, creative clothing, and fun hair accessories.

Even if you don’t end up deciding to purchase from Etsy, the pictures are always colorful and eye-catching since everything posted is basically a work of art. The account also informs followers about showcase dates, giveaways and other personal information about Etsy.

Recently, the site posted about their ninth birthday, their support of LGBT Pride Month, and where to find inspiration.

@JCrew: J.Crew is pretty well known for its high-quality and fashionable clothing lines.

While the cost of J.Crew apparel isn’t exactly ideal for the typical college student, adding a few of the company’s pieces to your wardrobe could be a smart investment.

J.Crew offers a lot of clothing that can be used for interviews, nice outings, jobs, holidays and upscale events. The stylish nature of the clothing allows college students to dress for these types of environments while still feeling fashionably fulfilled.

The Instagram fashion account highlights successful ways to wear J.Crew products and shows that dressing classy can also be fun. The account also lets followers take a peek into the workings and personality of the company with posts about employees and designers, “on site” pictures, and a look into how certain products are actually made.

@MenwithClass/@MenwithStreetStyle: While most fashion accounts seem to focus on women’s style, these two classy accounts offer hundreds of posts filled with style inspiration for men.

The posts allow followers to get an idea of what could look good on them, what’s currently in, and how to incorporate items they might already own into a dapper outfit.

@MenwithClass uploads outfits for upscale occasions that require suits, dress shirts, leather shoes, and maybe even tasteful suspenders. @MenwithStreetStyle focuses on more casual looks, but still makes sure that the outfits they post are trendy and make the wearer look well-dressed and groomed.

In a society where men are often criticized or deemed not masculine enough when they care about their appearance, these two Instagram fashion accounts make dressing well an attractive and impressive form of expression.

The next time you need some fashion influence to ignite your imagination, consider using fashion accounts on Instagram the same way that you would use a fashion blog.

Though the quantity of written advice and recommendations will be more limited, the quick pictures and descriptions will be enough to spark ideas.

Once you see something that interests you, it’s easy to follow the links and users on Instagram to find more information on how to create a look or purchase a new fashion.
