1,200 Instagrams Later

08/13/14 | Instagram, social media

Yesterday marked my 1,200th Instagram and it was by no means remarkable. I wish I had planned accordingly and shared a beautiful sunset or a great new pair of shoes but instead I posted about the candy one of the interns picked up for the office. Compared to my  6,000 pin milestones in February this is not as big of a feat but I it is when you consider that you can pin 10 things in one minute and I try to not share on Instagram more than twice a day.  

Last night I blast going through the hundreds and hundreds of photos I have taken and shared since I joined my favorite social network on April 7th, 2012.  From this vast collection of photos here are my 12 favorite snaps out of the 1,200 I have taken over the last two and a half years:

    Uhm, the candy picture was pretty momentous, so I think it was a solid 1,200 Insta post!
    Loooove the sunset pictures, and the one of the Plaza is absolutely perfect. Your selfies and outfits in all the pictures are equally gorgeous, girl!
