These past few months have been such a busy season for us. After returning to work I had a good bit of catch up to do despite working a little during my maternity leave as our large audit is about to be upon us and there was a period of time where I was down 2 staff instead of just 1 so it was all hands on deck to make sure everything was up to speed for our department! (Which I’m pleased to say, we’re right on target & ready to go!) However, that has meant a lack of a lunch break most days and little break time outside of work to sit down and be able to write. Because of that, I spend most of my social media time on Instagram as I can post quick snaps of life more frequently than anything else and it allows me to stay connected in such a fun way. If you’re not following along already, come join in -> @elliott_lauren. In light of that, I wanted to share with you the best Instagram accounts to follow along with! These are some of my absolute favorites:
If you love dogs and a healthy does of sarcasm, then @thedailytay is your girl. She’s also got some pretty sweet t-shirt designs too. Great outfits & dreamy Chicago sites can be found on @thefoxandshe and I just adore her style – especially when it comes to the shoes! @cmcoving has probably the most perfect hair on the planet (no joke), is a good ole’ southern gal, also has great style and travels to some amazing locations. @marquis_clarke posts the most precious pictures of her little, supports small shops, and offers spiritual truths on  the regular. She’s got such an encouraging feed and is such a sweetheart!

Clearly I have a  thing for style/fashion accounts & @whitecoatwardrobe is such a practical outfit guide which I love. And evidently I’ve got a thing for Chitown too as @lakeshore_lady posts great city shots, fun yoga inspiration, style and lots of delicious food posts as well! Not only is @caraloren adorable, her fitness posts are quite motivational as her her love for her littles and her husband. For some organizational inspiration, @the_home_edit hits the spot with crisp and bright images.

I love small businesses and especially creative ones. @texturedesignco has such a colorful feed of not only their items, but fun spots in Charleston too. And she’s a long time friend! Another pracitcal (& petite) fashion inspiration comes in @carylee07, and not to mention how sweet she is with interacting on her comments! With a mixture of her little, and her house decor, @herheartandhome has a sweet balance of mom life and decor. And if you’re in love with some breathtaking nature shots, @portermccain has that down to a science. The younger brother of a friend from college, and only non blogger on this list, his pictures are simply ridiculous.
