Perfectionism : Help or Hindrance? // The Effect of the Instagram Algorithm
Sunday, February 26
The other week, I made an observation. One which I've made many a time before but never really spoken about on here. So now's, your time, kids!
See, for me and many others, Instagram is a portfolio. A sort of 'archive', if you will, of our lives and outfits; a body of work which has individually been curated and cared for, to collectively showcase our skills and passions to the world. I know what non-social media moguls are thinking - "it's just a pic-sharing platform, it's not that deep" and look, I'm not dismissing that fact; you're either immersed in it or you're not... I, however, am not ashamed to admit that I sometimes plan my outfits based on whether the colours will flow nicely next to my previous pic (alright, slightly ashamed)
