Social Media

Social media plays a massive role in all of our lives. I don't know where I'd be or what I'd do without it.

There are so many different types of social networking that all serve a different purpose and today I'll be showing you my favourites.

 1. Instagram
Instagram is probably my favourite social media just because of the fact that it's so easy to use. For anyone who doesn't know what it is, it's basically a way of sharing photos.

This is my instagram account...


(For anyone who doesn't know what my bio means, it's a 5sos reference)

My all time favourite instagram account is @tashbonniface. Her pictures are always so colourful and I am in love with her style, definitely recommend chucking her a follow!




She also has tumblr, specklesoftash.tumblr.com and mywardrobeonablog.tumblr.com, both which are just amazing!

There are so many other accounts that I love so take a look through my following list to find some!

2. Tumblr
Tumblr is so diverse and caters for many different needs. I absolutely love working with coding and html (basically the look of the blog) and I've learnt heaps of cool tips and tricks (like adding falling unicorns!). The only downside is that it can be pretty hard to work out.

My recommendations for gaining followers on tumblr is to find one blog that you love the style of (whether it be indie, modern, fandom, etc.), and then follow the blogs that they reblog and so on.

My friend Kasey and I co own (kind of, I do most of it ;) a indie/bambi blog, dayzeih.tumblr.com.

Because I'm typing this on my iPad right now, I can only add a really bad screenshot of the computer site so please forgive me but you get the gist.


It's so hard to pick one favourite tumblr blog, but I really love stihckers.co.vu (I won't screenshot hers on here because it wouldn't do her justice) and again Tash's mywardrobeonablog.tumblr.com (her most recent post is life). 

Also thanks for getting us to 100 followers on tumblr, especially from only starting it about 2 weeks ago!

3. Twitter
If you want to stay in the know about any celebrity, twitter is the place to go. This is the place where the drama happens and rumours are spread. I love twitter to death and I highly recommend it... if you're using it for a celebrity/band. I'm just gonna put it out there, to be really successful (follower wise) on twitter, you have to be a fan account (or famous). 

I'm keeping this category short as I don't really want to put my twitter user or anyone else's on here.

4. Pinterest
Pinterest is inspiration. This is where I find DIYs, outfit ideas, room inspiration, etc. The app itself is pretty self explanatory, so I won't explain anything here. I actually only got Pinterest the other day, but I am in love with it!

This is my Pinterest account, @idcmaddy



I also recommend you follow, @freshlypickked (check out her instagram, same user, and blog, in her bio), @mayahello and @sophamandasmith (her blog is in her bio too). 


So that's it for today, and I am so so so sorry it's late but I couldn't get to the spot where I wanted to take photos so I had to pick a new post idea. But the one I wanted to do will be up hopefully next week. 

I hope you all enjoyed,
Maddy xx
