Insta Loves: Good Things From The Grid

Instagram gives us endless eye candy, a dash of wit – and the occasional gem that’s too good to keep to ourselves. This month, our editors dive into the grid to share the accounts and finds currently filling our feeds. From indie brands to pure escapism, these are the posts we’re double-tapping with gusto. Ready to refresh your own follows? These are the Insta discoveries worth pausing your scroll for.

@leapfrogremedies

Instagram made me buy it… Currently trending are the viral Leapfrog’s IMMUNE chewable supplements that you take when you feel a cold or flu coming on. Be gone the threat of onsillitis.

@pookylights

Right now, the trend of wireless wall lights is all over Insta. We’ve got a lot of love for Pooky’s new collection of USB rechargeable wall lights which require no hardwiring from an electrician. Bright idea.

@sean_anthony_pritchard

Instagram is wall-to-wall with beautiful homes. But Sean Anthony Pritchard’s has to be my favourite of them all. His is lived-in and simply stuffed full of the things he loves, without a whiff of the precious or the overly ‘done’. Every picture is a joy. I am always inspired to start rearranging my over-burdened shelves and bring flowers in from the garden.

@brucemcleanofficial X @wortonhallstudios

The inimitable, exceptional and all-round genius artist Bruce McLean just turned 80, and to celebrate he has made a duo of artworks of his own ceramics in association with @wortonhallstudios. Prints are on sale for £500 and the money goes to @cureparkinsons. Run don’t walk.

@katebartondesigns

I have been living in Kate Barton’s jumbo cord dresses this season. They are flattering, easy to wear day or night, deeply cosy and come with big useful pockets. Instant favourite winter frocks.

@clavertoncloches

It may never have occurred to you that a hose could be beautiful but this one from Claverton Cloches (https://www.clavertoncloches.com/shop/p/beautiful-garden-hose) has blown my mind.

@matthewricewatercolours

Matthew Rice’s daily watercolours deliver a little hit of dopamine.

@themodernhouse

The Modern House’s podcast Homing In is an unsung hero, with fabulous guests like Nigel Slater, Ruth Rogers and Skye Gyngell.

@initiallylondon

I love a pouch. They make travelling so much easier and organised. You can also swap bags easily this way too. I love these new ones from Initially London and will be buying some monogrammed ones for Christmas presents this year.

@goodfoodeveryday

I have tried these three lunch ideas and can confirm that they are indeed delicious (and quick and easy!).

Lydia, Lifestyle Editor

@FitGreenMind

I love @FitGreenMind. Maya is a brilliant young chef who makes plant-based cooking really simple and gets me out my vegan-rut of the same 10 dishes.

@alexsteinherr

I adore @alexsteinherr’s style and trust her beauty regime recommendations implicitly. Have you seen her skin!?

@amigo_app

I discovered the AmiGo App through Instagram, a brilliant resource of beautifully curated travel guides and destination tips from stylish travellers and tastemakers in your pocket.
