I made a goal to rock my blog this year (here’s the post if you missed it!) and because of this I’ve been turning to everyone’s favorite place- instagram- for inspiration!
I have done some diligent work unfollowing people that make me feel bad, something I highly suggest to everyone. So my feed is curated especially for me. I mostly look at normal people living extraordinary lives, organization enthusiasts and of course the ladies in my book club. Here’s my top 10 bloggers that I’m looking at for allllll the inspo this year.
The Travelers (aka the Jessicas + Helene)
The Bucketlist Family– Jessica, Garrett, Dorothy, Manilla & Cali
- I love them so much. They inspire me to travel with kids, live more authentically. The Gees show me that family is everything and possessions are nothing. Their YouTube channel inspires me to get in the picture more and make memories. Yes, it helps that they have a lot of money and go on incredible adventures but they give me something to aspire to.
Flying the Nest– Jessica, Steven & Hunter (and baby boy coming soon!)
- Another traveling family, this time from Australia. Their travels feel more attainable and lifestyle a bit more similar to mine. Their daughter is about a year older than my son and they show me how to travel with a young family. Jessica inspires me to be better dressed lol. And Hunter is just about as cute as my dude (just about 😉).
Catch Me If You Can– Jessica Nabongo
- Jessica is the first Black woman to go to every country in the world. She’s a freaking icon. And her book is bomb. Enough said.
Helene In Between– Helene & Michael
- Helene is a fellow blogger. She and her husband are amazing and she helps blog newbies like me! I love that she is her true self and never tries to fit into the rest of the instagram traveler mold. She inspires me to write more, explore my own backyard and be better at the biz of blogging.
The Fashionistas
Hello Her– Rachel
- My original blog inspo. I came across Rachel a few years back when I was looking for some midsize fashion inspo. She lead me to the book club I’m in and she’s an all around boss. Inspiring me to dress better and care more while also making me long for Boston and spending my summers there as a kid.
- Another gal from my book club! Madison dresses they way I do in a parallel universe. She is so chic and put together. That mix of southern belle, French fashion and Kate Middleton.
The Organizers
I Speak Organized– Melody
- Awesome professional organizer and mommy of 2 sweet girls. She is hilarious on insta and has the best realistic organizational tips and tricks. She’s not afraid to be imperfect and genuinely herself. Plus she’s one of my very first supporters on ig and I love her for that.
Life with Less Mess– Melissa
- Another ig fav follow. Melissa has the best tips and tricks for ev-er-ry-thing re: routines. I’m telling you. If you’re looking to make your life more organized (not just your stuff), check her out!
The Locals
Chelsey Explores– Chelsey
- She’s got the low down on the local stuff. She inspires me to explore my own backyard and get out more! She also hikes like no ones business and I only hope I could ever keep up. Plus she has a little boy too so it’s nice to see what I can do with the kiddo around tow.
There are so many more people that I draw inspiration from but these gals (and families) are the exact energy I’m bringing into 2023. Who are you looking at? Who’s on your radar? I am always looking for more folks to follow so drop your suggestions in the comments below!
