Some bloggers are drawn toward bright, vibrant colours. Others use filters to make photos look darker. Whatever they opt for, they know theme is important: it makes those 'grams easily recognizable and creates a uniform look on their feed. Consistency reigns supreme when curating an enviable Instagram presence. Whether it's a soft pastel palette or a moody monochrome vibe, sticking to a cohesive color scheme can set you apart. Invest time in figuring out what resonates with your personality and brand. Match your theme to your style—whether chic and sophisticated or fun and quirky—for a more cohesive and appealing profile.

2. Invest in a Camera

Yes, bloggers do take photos with their phones — sometimes. But the majority of pics you see were really shot beforehand with a professional camera, like a Canon, then edited to perfection before posting.

3. Post Often

It's not enough to post once a week: followers want that daily dose of style! Like fashion blogs, you don't need to post something "new" every day. Just save photos on your phone and share them later on!

3. Find the Light

It's tempting to snap away in your bedroom or at a bar, but there's a reason most bloggers shoot during the day: natural light is the best light. Consider the sunshine your own personal spotlight.

4. Use Other Apps

Bloggers don't mind admitting their photos are edited. In fact, many of them write posts revealing their secrets! Some popular apps worth a download? Snapsneed, VSCO, and Facetune.

Even established bloggers use hashtags to boost those "likes" — they just write them in the comments section. After you post a photo with your chosen caption, repeatedly type one symbol — such as "." or "*" — for the first few lines (to ensure the comment stays hidden). Then, hashtag away, using popular ones like #currentlywearing, #thatsdarling, or #flashesofdelight along with your typical #ootd.

6. Mix Things up

It's nice to have variety on your feed, so alternate between simple photos, boomerangs, and quotes to keep things interesting.

7. See the Bigger Picture

When someone new discovers your feed, they're not going to click on photos one by one. They'll likely scroll through your page first — which means you should be curating something visually appealing. Is it your color theme that draws them in? Do you keep things uniform with a white boarder? Is every third post a quote? It's definitely something to consider!
