10 Tips For The Perfect Instagram Theme
Jess Conte

Everyone loves to go on Instagram and share pictures and videos of the fun things they did, their pets, or even their delicious food. Many people have gone so far as to create a “theme” for their Instagram to attract more likes and followers and make their account more appealing. We all see them and want the perfect theme, but how do we get it? Here, I’ll share my 10 best tips for creating the perfect Instagram theme!

1. Take all of your pictures in good lighting.

No one wants to see a grainy, low quality picture on your feed! It will make the picture and the overall look of your theme more appealing!

2. Stick to a certain filter for all your pictures.

Choose a filter that you like and use it for all of your pictures! It can be any filter with any color like blue, white, pink, etc! Mix it up and try different things when you first start off, that’s how you’ll know you’ve found what you like!

3. Crop your pictures the same.

That way all of your pictures look similar when you go to post them! You won’t want different sizes as it will mess up your feed!

4. Take different types of pictures.

Don’t just take pictures of people/you and your friends, take pictures of things like food, adventurous places, or even dogs! You’ll want variety in your feed!

5. Find your Instagram inspiration!

Find a celebrity, youtuber, or just someone whose theme you like and use theirs as inspiration for your own!

6. Post frequently!

The more you post, the faster your feed will establish!

7. Try different angles for pictures.

This will mix up your feed so all your pictures do not look exactly the same! Although you’ll want it to look like it has a theme, you don’t want everything to look the same!

8. Use VSCO!

This app has awesome pre-filters you can use when editing your pictures! Plus, it’s free!

9. Take lots of different pictures of the same picture.

The first picture you take won’t always be the best, so mix it up and try different things like using flash/not using flash, choose different places to take the picture, etc. It will give you more options to choose the best picture for your Insta later!

10. Have fun!

Once you get the hang of having a theme it will get more fun and enjoyable! You also get to choose what your theme is like, so try new things and see what works!


Having an Instagram theme can be fun! Take some time to practice taking pictures and getting the hang of the editing process and you will have the perfect theme in no time at all!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
