Anways, the point of this post is actually a little bit of what has made this month so far positive. I am always looking for sources of inspiration, and Instagram is always at the top of the list when it comes for a variety of it. One of my absolute favorite IG'ers is blogger, Carrie Santana de Silva of WishWishWish! She is a travel blogger + personal stylist based in London, who I have been following for probably a year or more. Her photography skills are beyond amazing, and her scenic shots of the bustling city and other areas she travels to, are gorgeous! Lately she's been sharing some lovely holiday-inspired photos of London and it's got me feeling the wanderlust. For this reason, she is officially my Insta-Crush for this entire year. Enjoy some of my favorite photos she's shared, and make sure to follow her for your own source of inspiration!

For this year's 'Life Through Instagram' series, I've decided to take a different approach. Instead of going through a bunch of photos, I thought I would select a few over the past year that have stood out to me! I'm really proud of what I've accomplished over the past year on my Instagram, and every photo is a new experience and opportunity for a conversation with people. I'm now trying cleaner aesthetics and brighter filters, and have sensed a theme as the seasons change too. So enjoy some of my favorite photos over the past year, and let me know which one is yours!
During fall last year, I was definitely in the mood for more romantic photography and fairytale-inspired editorials. This Vogue Italia photo shoot hit just the right points for what I was looking for. Look at that hair!
This was by far the best post I've ever done, mostly because Blake Lively liked it! That was definitely a surprise, and helped me to reach a much broader audience. It made my night ten times more relaxing.

I'm a huge fan of Rifle Paper Co., and the calendar for this year has cities around the world for each month. It just so happens to be New York City for October, and it just made everything so perfect. The illustration and colors are just top notch.
October last year was extremely special! I was finally able to save up enough money and get started on my third tattoo, which is based on Jane Austen. While I have not had the finances to get it colored and finished, I'm still dreaming of the day when that can finally happen. Though most people say they actually quite enjoy it as an outline. What do you think?!
Another successful post, and another ode to Rifle Paper Company. The cutest card ever, and probably one of the easiest Halloween costume ideas! Definitely one of the top contenders for this year.
That moment when you try a Lush bath bomb and your entire life is changed! I have become obsessed with this entire company, and I'm so glad there is one located in Minnesota.
My two nephews turned 4 & 2 this year. It's just hard to believe these two have grown up so much. Where does time go?!
The perfect moment captured last week. The sun was setting, I loved my outfit and the colors were so beautiful. Looking forward to more of these!

The second person in my Insta-Crush series, is a lovely lady who just so happens to be the direct for social media for Ban.do! Her name is Christina Winkelmann, and I've been following her for the past couple months and she's made my feed extra fancy. With bright, neon colors galore on her Instagram feed, it's nothing short of eye opening and I love it! It's a perfect representation of Ban.do too; with quirky products, 80s-inspired sayings and so much more to capture your eye. Christina's got the handle on how to capture the perfect image, is definitely another inspiration to get ideas on what to post about. If you need to put a smile on your face, I highly recommend checking out her feed and following along on her daily adventures! Tell her Mostly Lisa sent you!

The one thing I enjoy most about Instagram is the fact that it can inspire me on a daily basis. I'm always on the lookout for a good feed of images that will essentially make my day better, and Shini Park is at the top of that list! Owner of the beautiful blog, Park & Cube, Shini has been on my radar for a very long time since she is based in London, and we all know how much I love London! Her overall social media presence is inspiring in itself, and she's built a very successful brand across the pond. I particularly love her Instagram because she posts photos of her daily life, her dynamic style and her impeccable photography skills! Most of that includes scenery of the beautiful city she lives in, and so the hashtag #SparkyxLondon gives me life because it's like you're stepping into a British daydream. Above are some of my favorite photos in that tag, so enjoy and make sure to follow along with her escapades on her Instagram and Twitter!

It's been about a year or so since I posted a collection of anything from my Instagram that was completely just about my life. I thought I'd take the time to put together some of my favorite posts I've done on and some of the major moments that have happened since January. Hope you're all following me on there, and if you're not make sure to follow piccadillytown.
January through February was a good start to the new year. I revamped Mostly Lisa with a new template right on January 1st, and it's been pretty successful if I do say so myself. I received my diploma from college, FINALLY, in February and was very proud of myself. ModCloth had a lovely contest they hosted through their Instagram, where you participated in a #modweekoflove and each day was a different love-related photo challenge. Was particularly feeling the love with my favorite Fashion Friday post, "I Am My Own Valentine."
March through April were cold and very lively months. Minnesota weather was very discouraging through these two months, at first we thought we were finally getting spring but then more snow would come and temperatures would drop. For an entire weekend, which seemed like the coldest one we had, our furnace broke down and we resorted to having to wear tons of different layers while just walking around and sleep in one bedroom with the portable heater. I'll just let you know, that was the worst weekend I've had in a long time. No sleep was had during that time, for anyone. A sweeter note happened in April, when I received a lovely Easter basket swap full of amazing gifts. It was so nice to come home from work and find that sitting in the door. Tons of flowers were bought during the month, and I was consistently inspired by Erisha from A Thing Created. xoxoxo
May through June are usually my favorite months, as they are pack filled with birthdays, blockbusters and other various events. May had the celebrations of my sister and oldest nephew being born, and so it was fun looking back older pictures and newer ones. Zachary looked so good in his 'Future Superhero' shirt I bought him from Gap! I also got to spend time with my favorite BFF Nicole, and we spent some quality time eating pizza and enjoying the weather. Then my mom and sister granted my biggest birthday wish by purchasing my first Kate Spade bag! I got it as an early birthday present and was from then on insanely spoiled before my birthday. June transitioned very nicely with some gorgeous weather, a perfect 25th birthday party, and spending time with friends and family. This leads to where we are now, and I hope the rest of this year will be just as nice.

I thought I would do something a little personal for my first post of June. I decided to have a little look into my life, with reference from my Instagram. Oh, that lovely site. If you have one, follow me! My username is piccadillytown! I use it almost daily and it is a great recollection of life. I post pictures of everyday things, my dog Frodo, my favorite little nephew, and inspiration from my blog and other fun things. When I was in New York last summer I posted all the time and it's fun to look back at where I went while I was there. Here are some of my favorite photos I've ever posted. Enjoy!
What do you post about on your Instagram? Anything fun? Let me know your usernames and I'll follow you!
