That must have been a fun job (hopefully!). :) And I'm glad you understand about privacy and such, it seems like a lot of people don't these days!<br /><br /><br />And I've heard of Picframe before! It's fun to make collages but for some reason, I never think about it when Instagramming. It would definitely be a good idea for makeup and outfits, though! :)Kikihttp://www.initstimeblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7858077928947631725.post-56144369486192920162014-09-19T20:51:09.083-07:002014-09-19T20:51:09.083-07:00Exactly!

The only picture I ever showed of my kids was just one of them, with two other girls the same age, from a distance, not easily identifiable. And I didn't say which was my kid and which two were her friends. <br /><br /><br />I have to stay on top of all things social media and content marketing for my job, so I've read about a lot of apps to improve Instagram. The two I ended up downloading were Repost, which I LOVE, and Picframe, which allows you to make collages on Instagram. I primarily use it for makeup posts or outfit posts (neither of which happen often because of the aforementioned pajamas while working at home!).Brita Longhttp://bellebrita.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7858077928947631725.post-60497601040854629112014-09-19T19:07:04.054-07:002014-09-19T19:07:04.054-07:00That's how I am!

And like you, it's mostly because I don't really post much from home and work (it seems like that's a dilemma for a lot of people out there, though!). <br /><br /><br />And I'm with you, I want to post more often, too!

Mainly because I don't have much to post, working from home, there isn't the most exciting things to post, especially not of the same thing every day! haha I wan't to get better at posting more often thought.Aubreyhttp://www.thefoundlife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7858077928947631725.post-71330164906358033472014-09-19T07:41:50.876-07:002014-09-19T07:41:50.876-07:00DO IT!!!

I mean... I work from home. Who wants to see me in my pajamas, at the same desk, five days a week? I try to post a few times a week. I use the Repost app quite often, to share what other awesome people post. It keeps my Instagram account active, even if the pictures aren't always my own.
