7 Tips To Grow Your Instagram Profile And Become a Social Media Influencer

Hi There..... Are you a social media influencer? Would you like some tips on how to grow your Instagram profile?

Picture by Seadbeady

I opened my Instagram account in January 2017 but had no clue how to use it properly, let alone how to get more followers. 😬

Perhaps you have the same desire as me back then and desperately want to know how to grow your Instagram profile. 😦

It's no fun posting pictures and videos but getting no response, especially when you had a dream about becoming a big social media influencer. I am sorry, but there is no easy way to grow unless you buy followers. 😒

Are you crazy? There is no need to buy anything. It's an option I never even considered. Still, there is no easy way if you don't want to spend a dime. There is only the hard way. 😁

Let's start with something that's quite easy, and helps you to get seen, and that's also my first tip. 😉

Tip 1: Convert your Instagram profile to a business profile.

There are a few advantages to having a business profile on Instagram. You get a range of tools you don't have in a personal or creator account which might help you. 

You gain more insight through useful statistics about your followers, engagement, and views. It's also easier for customers to contact you. Here is a link on Buffer on how to convert your Instagram profile.

Tip 2: Like the posts in your niche

Start by liking lots of posts from your target group. Let me explain, if you focus on fashion, search for hashtags such as #fashionlovers #fashiondesigners #ootd, etc. Not that I have anything to gain by telling you this, but to find relevant hashtags I can recommend https://www.flick.social/. 

When you click on those hashtags, you will find an overview of popular and recent posts. Start liking the recent posts. Since most accounts don't get many likes on their posts, you quickly get their attention. Some might ignore you, but others will repay you with a like on your post.

Tip 3: Comment on 9 new posts every 12 hours

Choose 3 hashtags in your niche and give a friendly comment on 3 posts for every hashtag. Reactions such as 'nice', or 'great' will not be enough. The more effort you put into giving a personal response, the better. Do this 2 times a day with preferably 12 hours in between.

Tip 4: Start posting photos regularly

Sharing a post now and then won't work. It's quite a lot of work, but try posting a photo or video every 2 or 3 days. Work ahead, make an overview of your ideas, or work with a content calendar. If you post every day, you notice your Instagram profile will gain followers little by little.

Tip 5: extensively use hashtags on your posts

Hashtags are a handy way to get more exposure for your photos. For more reach, find the relevant hashtags for your post. You can use a maximum of 30 hashtags per post. Don't use the same ones over and over. You can use them more than once, but try to make a mix of different hashtags.

Tip 6: Ensure higher involvement

Involvement, or 'engagement', ensures a higher reach of your posts. If more people like or comment on your photo, the reach increases enormously. 

The best way to improve engagement is to also like and respond to posts from your followers. If they then see a post from you, the chance that they will like or comment on your photo is much bigger. It's a matter of give and take, but on Instagram.

Tip 7: Don't randomly follow anyone

I don't advise you to just randomly start following people, not even if they are in your niche. Wait for them to follow you and then give them a follow back. The reason for this is that you can only follow a maximum of 7500 Instagram accounts in total. Sorry to have burst your bubble. 

Those were my 7 tips to gain followers on your Instagram profile. I wish you good luck on your further quest to become a social media influencer.

If you aren't on Instagram yet, then this next post could be helpful to get you started:

Do You Need Easy Snack Ideas? DutchJerky - Homemade Beef Jerky

Hi There..... Are you looking for easy snack ideas? Have you ever been to the United States and tasted homemade Beef Jerky?

Picture by Seadbeady

https://dutchjerky.com/

I had never tried it before I got this package from Dutch Jerky in my mailbox. Oh my, I was so very curious about how it would taste, but first I want to start with some scientific facts about easy snack ideas and homemade beef jerky. 😎

You know, I have been thinking about changing the way I write my blog posts. I should be way more serious about everything, and not always try to fool you with all kinds of silly remarks. 😟

Hell no, there is no way I am changing into anything I am not. 😜

If you don't like it, just close your eyes and continue reading past the silly remarks. I wonder how that would work out. 😂

Some of my dedicated readers may know I had a Gastric Bypass in 2018, and need to be careful with sugary foods. 😟

Since I now have a smaller stomach, I can never eat large portions anymore, which is a good thing of course, but that means I have to eat in small batches, so every time I go out the door for 2 hours or more, I need to either stop and buy food or carry something with me. 😊

That's why I am always looking for alternative and easy snack ideas that fit into my handbag, so it thrilled me to get the chance to try this homemade beef jerky from Dutch Jerky in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍

Picture by Seadbeady

About Dutch Jerky

It all started years ago on a trip to San Antonio, Texas. That's where we got our first taste of Beef Jerky (from Dziuks meat-market, Castroville Texas, if you are ever in the area this is a must!). We immediately fell in love with this traditional American product. 

After returning to the Netherlands, we searched for a long time for quality homemade Beef Jerky and concluded that no real 'Beef Jerky' was available. We found all sorts; too thick, too wet, made from minced meat, full of preservatives, non-smoked, and always a few minor pieces for lots of money. That needed to be different!

Since we couldn't do without Beef Jerky anymore, we started making it ourselves. After many tries, we finally got the right recipe! At first, we only made it for ourselves, but soon our friends and then friends of friends asked for our homemade Beef Jerky. The demand grew steadily and finally, when our kitchen looked like a Beef Jerky factory, it was time for a big step. The idea of Dutch Jerky was born: real, affordable American fresh Beef Jerky in a Dutch jacket.

Love for meat, craftsmanship, and really beautiful honest products brought us, and Jasper Poldervaart, the award-winning natural meat specialist from Waterland, together. Together with Jasper, we perfected our recipe and applied it to his grass-fed beef. The result is true homemade Beef Jerky as it should be. At Dutch Jerky, we cut each piece by hand and marinate it in the finest ingredients, and then slowly smoke the meat to create the most delicious Beef Jerky.

Homemade Beef Jerky as it should be

True Beef Jerky, that's what we love at Dutch Jerky. Together with our natural meat butcher from Waterland, we produce this originally American delicacy with only high-quality ingredients. We make this traditional product with an eye for the craft and this results in tasty, large, thinly sliced pieces of smoked, and dried beef. 

To make 100 grams of our traditional hand-cut beef jerky, we use approximately 225 grams of high-quality lean beef from our natural meat butcher. Our homemade beef jerky has a long shelf life outside the refrigerator.

Our beef jerky comes from a natural meat butcher who produces it traditionally. Our product is incredibly healthy and packed with proteins (60%), vitamins, and minerals. Unfortunately, many people aren't familiar with this delicious snack and we want to change this.

My opinion on the Garlic Rosemary

As with any kind of food, I always dive in the nose first. I found the smell a bit fishy, not literally of course, but a little weird. Still, I didn't let my nose get in the way of my tasting. 😊

At first, the feeling was peculiar, but after chewing for a few seconds, the taste of the meat came through, and it wasn't an unpleasant taste at all. 😋

Picture by Seadbeady

My opinion on the Pepper

If you like to pepper your food, you are definitely going to like this one. Although, I don't think they went over the top with their peppercorns. I was most fan of this one even though I am not a huge pepper lover. 😍

Picture by Seadbeady

My opinion on the Cajun

Regret to say I wasn't a fan of this taste. It's probably the combination of spices that is just not my thing. 😵

Overall, I like the slightly salty snack, and it's healthy and packed with proteins. You could also present it as a snack on a serving board when you have friends over. 😉

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

Interview with Jewelry Designer Rustin Yasavolian

Hi There..... Are you a fan of chunky jewelry, or do you prefer fine jewelry? 

Picture provided by Rustin Yasavolian

https://masinadiamonds.com/

You know what that means. It's time for another jewelry designer interview. Perhaps I should skip the first part of my blog post, where I give you a kind of introduction, and jump straight to the interview? 😬

Would you like that? If you said yes, too bad because I have no intention of changing that part. Before you know you will want me to skip the middle part, and while you are at it, let's get rid of the end, too. 😲

Ah, I'm sorry, I was just thinking to myself, and that, you, was just me talking to my brain. It answered, yes, because at the moment I am staring at a blank page, not knowing what to tell you today. 😱

Have you ever had a brain freeze but absolutely wanted to get something written? It's not that hard. You just talk about what you are experiencing at that moment, and before you know it, it filled your blank page with a multitude of words. You should try it sometime. 😁

The point is, never give in to yourself. Does that make any sense? Probably not. The only thing that makes sense today is that this new jewelry designer interview is about fine jewelry. 😍

Picture provided by Rustin Yasavolian

What are your name, function, and the company you work for? 

My name is Rustin Yasavolian, and I’m the CEO of Masina Diamonds. 

How old are you?

I’m 29 years old

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

I own and operate Masina Diamonds. We are a jewelry store in Atlanta that specializes in custom design of fine jewelry, loose diamonds, and engagement rings.

What made you decide to become a Jewelry Designer?

My family has owned Masina Diamonds since 1984, so I grew up around the diamond industry. Growing up, I was very creative and enjoyed drawing. I knew I wanted to get into a career that let me enjoy that creative freedom. 

After graduating, I joined the Masina team and saw how our fine jewelry creations brought so much joy to our clients. From that point on, I knew that this was the career for me. This path allowed me to look at diamonds artistically, which brought people's ideas to life. 

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Fashion is important to me; it is like an art. I think it allows people to express themselves without dialogue. Everyone is an artist and they convey their style through their clothing and accessories.

Picture provided by Rustin Yasavolian

What are your successes, and how did you achieve them?

A few of my successes are winning Wedding Wire’s Couple Choice Award from 2019 to 2021. 

Another one of my successes is being featured in Brides 2023 and holding a Google 5-star rating with over 260 reviews. I believe that if you create something of quality with beauty and attention to detail, the work will speak for itself. 

We have worked with some of the greatest talents on the Atlanta Braves, including Ozzie Albies and Matt Olson. I talked to the CEO of the organization to put in our bid for the 2021 World Championship rings and although they already signed a contract with another organization; it was a great learning experience. 

We achieved these feats by providing excellent service and honest opinions. I am a big believer in only curating or selling jewelry I would offer my family or loved ones. In the end, your clients really become like your extended family. 

What’s something you might want to do in the future?

My future goal is to create Masina into a fine design house that designs accessories outside of just fine jewelry. I want to create a team that can branch into other aspects of luxury, like handbags, colognes, and other accessories.

I also want to continue to work with professional athletes. Unfortunately, jewelers in my industry understand that these people have money tied to their names, so some of them overpay for jewelry. In my eyes, everyone should be treated and educated the same, especially in something like diamonds, since it is not something people typically deal with on a day to day. 

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing or jewelry?

Although I believe certain brands are extremely innovative with their designs, brand names are not particularly important to me. I believe that as long as you can make clothing or jewelry work together in unison, that name on the tag is irrelevant.

Describe your personal style of fashion?

I’m very simple with my personal style, especially in clothing. Although I enjoy dressing up, I’m most comfortable in a plain shirt, Lulu Lemon joggers, and a luxury watch. I pay more attention to the detail in accessories. When a person can captivate a room with a simple style, you know it is not what they are wearing but how they wear it.  

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

I found my personal style based on what I’m most comfortable in. The more comfortable I am, the better I can think and operate. My signature look is a plain button down shirt, business casual slacks, two simple gold chains (18”, 20”), and a luxury watch. 

Picture provided by Rustin Yasavolian

Do you have an influence on other people’s fashion style?

I would say I have a slight influence on people’s fashion. I am asked often what goes well together and what we should avoid, especially with jewelry accessories. 

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

My favorite trend at the moment is how yellow gold is making a comeback in the industry. There is something so beautiful and captivating about gold in its natural yellow color. Human history has been intertwined with this precious yellow metal for as long as we have been around, and I think its use pays homage to the ones before us.

One of the most popular trends in the engagement ring space has been the move toward simplicity. We have a lot of clients now that prefer to go with a very simple solitaire band and diamond. They want the focus of their engagement ring to be the diamond itself rather than everything else going on around it.

Another one of my favorite trends is the use of sleek bezel set diamonds. It is a very modern, and contemporary look that again keeps the focus on the center stone. 

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

It is hard for me to say what bad trends are. For fashion and jewelry, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Like art, what one person sees as unattractive, another person sees as captivating and breathtaking.

  

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

My fashion advice is to stick with simplicity within your realm and taste. A simple style with a matching color palette goes with everything. Again, it is not what you wear but how you wear it. Insecurities are loud, and confidence is quiet. 

Who is your style icon and why?

One of my favorite style icons is the Cartier Family and their story. They were one of the first design houses to introduce platinum in jewelry. They also created the iconic “Love” bracelet in 1969, which is still one of the most highly sought-after jewelry pieces almost 54 years later. The idea is that it needs 2 people to put the bracelet on given the screw mechanism, giving it its name “Love” bracelet.

Thank you, Rustin, for filling in my questions. It's not that I am thinking about getting married again because I love my husband to pieces, but I couldn't help browsing your wedding bands out of sheer curiosity, and they look amazing.

Interview With Fashion Designer Charles Fratto

Hi There..... Are you ready to learn more about events in the fashion industry? 

Picture provided by Charles Fratto

https://www.iloestudios.com/

Great, then you'll be particularly interested in this fashion designer interview that I have for you today. 

Doesn't it sound great to go to fashion events? Can you believe I have never been to any? 😯

I wouldn't even know who I'd have to ask to get an invitation to an important event in the fashion industry. Humor me, and spill your secret if you know. 😜

Don't worry, I know how to keep a secret. My lips are sealed. Oh my, you don't want to see the image that's locked in my brain at the moment. 😬

I was thinking of a horror movie where a killer sewed his victim's mouth shut. Mind you, that's not what I had planned. 😟

Ouch, perhaps I just planted the image in your brain now. Not what I had planned, either. 😱

Ok, new plan, let's find out what the answers are from the fashion designer I am starring in my blog today. 😉

Picture provided by Charles Fratto

What are your name, function, and the company you work for?  

My name is Charles Fratto and I am the style director of ILOE STUDIOS, one of the nation’s premier fashion trade show events. 

How old are you?

29

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

ILOE STUDIOS focuses on fostering connections across the entire fashion industry with events that inspire and deliver an outstanding return on investment for both exhibitors and attendees. 

As style director, my role is to ensure we meet these goals while creating an exceptional experience for our clients. I ensure our events resonate with our clients and tell the story of fashion today with trends that are timely and on-brand. 

From a practical standpoint, this means working closely with our operations coordinator to increase the appeal and accessibility of our show floor as well. Our goal is to not only engage our clients but also provide unparalleled business opportunities throughout their experience. 

What made you decide to become a Fashion Designer?

I’ve always been creative-minded. Before I earned my degree in fashion design, I was a professional dancer in Salt Lake City, Utah. My sister had been traveling abroad for two months and I decided I wanted to make her a dress as a homecoming gift. 

I had never even sewn or seen a sewing pattern before, but I took on the idea as a fun challenge and found that I was enthralled with the process. I learned to thread the sewing machine, choose fabric, and ultimately, made her a black lace evening dress with no measurements. Somehow, it all came together and fit her perfectly. 

Her reaction inspired me to pursue fashion as a career. I wanted to recreate that moment for others. Later I enrolled in the Fashion Institute in Salt Lake City, and now I continue to design womenswear while working as a style director. 

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Fashion is one of the few aspects of life that is both utilitarian and expressive. Everyone wears clothes – they are functional. But our clothing and accessory choices convey who we are, how we feel, and how we see ourselves in the world. 

It is the seamless connection between function and form that excites me when I think about fashion. I think the same goes for the process of designing and creating apparel, which is why I have found so much satisfaction in my fashion career.  

What are your successes, and how did you achieve them?

I am always so proud at the end of our ILOE STUDIOS shows because I have the chance to see how the event and the connections that we foster are not only helping our clients but also their employees and their communities through their business success. 

Being able to help someone achieve a great win in business has a ripple effect that is truly mind-boggling. 

Picture provided by Charles Fratto

What’s something you might want to do in the future?

I love to learn and I am always seeking new opportunities to expand my experience, knowledge, and skills. One of the great things about the fashion industry is that it is extremely diverse, with endless facets to explore. 

At ILOE STUDIOS, I bring the same eagerness to learn, to my commitment, to the continuous improvement, and enhancement of our events. 

I aim to be at the forefront of industry innovation so that I can incorporate new ideas and best practices to help our exhibitors and attendees enjoy a more effortless experience. 

I take a lot of inspiration from other industries where client service is paramount. Our goal is to best serve our clients in such a way that they focus solely on their success at the show. We cover all the details so they can achieve, and even exceed, their business goals. 

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing or jewelry?

Quality is what I'm most focused on with my purchases. I’m infamous among my friends for turning everything inside out when I’m shopping so I can see how it was made. I also think it’s important to remember that brands create a story and a world that we as consumers aspire to join. 

If the brand inspires me and its products are well-made and with quality materials, then I’m all in.

Describe your personal style of fashion?

Before I moved to Florida, the colder weather in Utah inspired me to lean into layering. Now, I am just a little more strategic and materials-conscious. I wear a lot of natural fibers like cotton and linen, as well as rayon and tropical wool. My overall aesthetic is relaxed yet polished. 

For special occasions, I love to dress up and bring my unique spin to classically inspired silhouettes. For example, I like to pair more formal, tailored items with something unexpected, like a shawl instead of the traditional suit jacket. 

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

My personal style experience has been mostly trial and error, but when I first became “fashion aware,” I really leaned toward classic styling and dressing. Being that I love to design womenswear, I looked for opportunities to integrate elements of those designs into more traditional menswear. 

I’m also an avid knitter, so I would knit large shawls and pair them with my formal looks for various events like ballet or galas. 

Do you have an influence on other people’s fashion style?

Whenever my opinion is asked, I love to help others discover their style and fashion awareness. I continue to make dresses for my sister and mother, and I always welcome opportunities to style others. 

Picture provided by Charles Fratto

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

I am fascinated by the element of surprise we are seeing in the luxury space now. Bottega Veneta, for example, recently showed Kate Moss on the runway wearing what appeared to be jeans and a flannel button-down. 

We later learned that they actually made both items of leather. It was an immense surprise, especially considering the way the apparel moved. I’m looking forward to more of these types of surprises. 

Another interesting shift is in sustainability, including both how they make apparel and who is making it. Many people aren’t aware that every item they wear is physically sewn by a person, and it’s important that we respect those individuals. I hope we continue to see more appreciation for the artisans and those who are making our clothes and accessories. 

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

On the business side, I always encourage others to learn as much as they can and to take every opportunity – even those that seem scary at first – to learn and grow. 

Who is your style icon and why?

I’ve never drawn inspiration from a singular individual because style is always evolving and changes throughout our lives. However, I enjoy seeing how others approach their style. I am drawn to others’ attitudes toward fashion, much more than their approach. 

Is there something else you would like to share with us?

Dress for yourself and tell your own story. Embrace what you like, and what you want to convey to the world in both your style and work in the fashion industry. 

Picture provided by Charles Fratto

Thank you, Charles, for filling in my questions. I think it's incredibly cool what you did for your sister.

Where To Find a Clear Handbag - Margo Paige - Sustainable Fashion

Hi There..... Are you into sustainable fashion? Have you ever seen or bought a clear handbag?

Picture by Seadbeady

https://www.margopaige.com/

I am not saying we should all buy vintage. There are new sustainable fashion items you can buy. 😊

I thought it wouldn’t be bad for bloggers to set a good example, so a story around this clear handbag could be a great idea. 😎

Ok, I have another question for you. Don’t you just hate it when you spill something on your new handbag, and it’s damaged without repair? No matter how hard you try, the spot won’t come off. 😬

Oh yes, I’ve had this happen to me, and my clothes have had their fair share too. No need to worry, though, because spilling is what I do best. 😂

Ok, maybe not the best, but I’m pretty good at it. Especially when we are eating out. If I dare to order something with a sauce, I can guarantee there will be stains after. 😋

I’m not one to brag, but this is something I am better at than most. Hey, I am not suggesting there is no one better at it. Let me know if you are, I am desperate to know. 😏

High time to tell you some more about the clear handbag I received from Margo Paige in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍

Picture by Seadbeady

About Margo Paige

I founded Margo Paige as a response to the moral dilemmas I encountered in my life. Although I've always had a passion for handbags and fashion, the industry itself clashed with my personal values. I observed a prevalence of people and brands indulging in excessive consumption of bags, clothing, and more.

In addition to the industry's wasteful practices, I couldn't ignore the frequent news stories highlighting poor labor conditions and environmental pollution within the fashion world. After delving into this issue, I uncovered some concerning facts:

- Research indicates that consumers bought 60% more clothing in 2014 compared to 2000.

- An astonishing 85% of textiles produced by the fashion industry end up in landfills every year.

- The fashion industry contributes nearly 10% of the world's annual greenhouse gas emissions and ranks as the second-largest water consumer among industries.

Terms like waste, excess, and negative environmental impact have become synonymous with the fashion industry, especially fast fashion.

As I witnessed other industries I cared about, such as food and events, taking steps to improve their practices, I felt inspired. Organics and Fair Trade products were becoming standard on supermarket shelves, while football games and concerts were adopting zero-waste policies and providing attendees with reusable options to reduce waste. This progress was encouraging.

However, the fashion industry, while showing some efforts from industry leaders, wasn't making the necessary strides to address the pressing social and environmental challenges of our time. I realized that I could contribute to the solution by establishing a handbag brand rooted in sustainability. For me, this meant creating versatile pieces that matched my lifestyle.

Our designs, like the transparent handbag that facilitates event access and seamlessly transitions to brunch or nightlife, were crafted with multifunctionality in mind. These pieces not only catered to various lifestyle needs but also embodied a commitment to minimizing waste, sustainable fashion, and timeless design.

Though the realms of sustainability and event bag guidelines are intricate, our mission is straightforward. Margo Paige produces sustainable, multifunctional, and stylish products that enable your lifestyle to align with your values.

These handbags effortlessly enhance any ensemble, regardless of the season. What's more, they are all manufactured with sustainability in mind, from the materials used to our workforce, all the way to your doorstep. We trust that you'll take as much delight in our latest release as we do!

Cut Out Crossbody Clear Handbag

Material

GRS Certified Materials 

Recycled PU is 40% Recycled Post-Consumer Polyester + 60% Polyurethane

100% artificial renewable and degradable properties PVC

Care

For the proper maintenance of your handbag, gently clean the product using mild soap or detergent combined with warm water. It's best to use a non-abrasive towel, such as a microfiber or soft cloth. Alternatively, anti-bacterial wipes can also be used. 

Sustainability

Clear Recycled PVC boasts impressive longevity and durability, effectively extending the lifespan of this handbag and preventing it from ending up in landfills prematurely.

Utilizing Recycled PVC not only conserves resources but also diminishes the need for virgin fossil fuel-derived materials, all while maintaining the same high-performance characteristics.

The incorporation of faux detailing not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also aligns with principles of animal welfare.

Moreover, this handbag provides an end-of-life recycling solution, contributing to a more sustainable lifecycle.

Crafted with an eco-conscious approach, it is designed by women and produced ethically using eco-friendly materials.

My opinion on the clear handbag

As some of you know, I love to give you a head up about sustainable fashion, so this is a big plus if you ask me. 😍

Most of you know I am more the fall-type kind of chicken, but I wanted to point out to the spring chicks reading here that you might need this type of handbag to get into some festivals this summer. 😉

Another big plus, as I mentioned at the beginning of this blog post, is that you can spill heaps of food on it without having to throw it in the waste bin. 😃

However, there are some negatives about this clear handbag too. It is anything but safe from pickpockets, so you'd have to be very aware of this when you use it. 😞

The other problem is that you can't adjust the length of the large strap, but you can solve this by using the gold chain as a shoulder strap. 😊

Still, I think it looks pretty cool, and the size is good for festivals, events, or concerts. As you can see, it easily fits a small wallet, a cell phone, a pair of glasses, and some other minor items. 😍

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day
