The softest instagram account
What if I told you that there is a supremely perfect IG account that will pump your timeline full of delicate little lambs and small Asian children and gentle fields of pastel flowers, AKA all the industrial-grade serotonin you could possibly want, and it’s called @mignonettetakespictures?
The woman behind the account, who goes by Joanna outside of Instagram, is a former style blogger (omg remember that whole lookbook era of the early 2010s when everyone in fashion had a blogspot and they’d publish all these giant photos of themselves with their chic friends and list out their clothes in tiny, inscrutable font, or was that just uh me being a psycho on the internet in rural illinois?). I found this beauty secrets interview she did with The File, and it is also similarly soothing and will remind you of a specific blog aesthetic of yore.
(And if you need more curated goodness, she’s got a Tumblr too, duh.)
(Also if soft IG content isn’t your thing rn because you, too, are watching the TV show about the horny noncommunicative Irish teens, I must direct you to @connellschain.)
H/t to Jenns for showing me this account!
Signal Boost:
I’m still taking listings for places that are hiring and also people who’ve lost work/jobs because of the pandemic who are looking for work. This past issue has examples! DM me @delia_cai if you have either.
