If you can’t tell, Instagram is our jam. From pictures of colorful day-to-days to detailed nail art and fashion-forward feeds, we love sharing all things square-sized and inspirational. And that’s especially true for the talented designers rockin’ their well-composed snapshots on the ‘gram. So, if you enjoy being inspired on the daily by awesome graphics and bright pics, we suggest you give these 20 users (and makers!) a follow. We promise you won’t be disappointed.
