Calling all Instagramers and Bloggers! Instagram Story’s are the new SnapChat?! I love seeing and sharing real life updates on current happenings in their lives. For bloggers, it’s also a great way to share information on new blog posts, shoppable content, and more. Your favorite stories can now be saved to Highlight on your profile. These covers can be created in a matter of seconds – and will make your profile look professional, stylish and organized for your audience.
