Last week on Instagram a question was posed; something along the lines of why do we use social media? My response was that I love finding niche brands on Instagram that I would never have heard of without social media. I have listed a few brands I have found through Instagram, following blogs and checking out brands that influencers mention (paid or not). Let me know which cool brands you like in the comments below!

Wow, I have so many to choose from some I found on Insta and others stumbled upon and fallen in love with these brands.
