With the #10yearchallenge currently trending on Instagram seeing everybody going retrospect mad, here at Husskie we got all inspired to take a look back at what our favourite Instabloggers were getting up to when they first jumped on board the social media platform.

From mostly empty captions alongside grainy captures to considered inscriptions teamed with magazine-quality images – Instagram has come a long way. A long, long way.

Here, we take a look at the first post for 10 top lifestyle influencers compared to what you’re more likely to find on their feed these days…

6. We Wore What | Danielle Bernstein | 2 million followers

THEN
Date posted: May 30, 2011
No of likes: 102
What she said: –

We Wore What

NOW
Date posted: January 22, 2019
No. of likes: 22,420
What she said: “Morning thoughts ?: Ive been on a personal emotional roller coaster with the power of social media as of late – from an egg receiving 50 million likes on a single Instagram to the Fyre Festival’s biggest success and downfall all stemming for social postings – it all seems a little (ok, very) ridiculous. But then something happens, the 10 year challenge turns into a focus on cleaning up our environment, Shaun King posts to educate and actually create change bringing those responsible to justice, and even a lost dog is found within minutes through the Instagram community. My high of this weekend was of course Kylie Jenner posting a photo in a small business swim brand, my small business, generating over 60k in sales in just 1 hour (and she didn’t even tag us). So the power of social media is clearly very real, and I vow to continue to use my platform for good and to maintain its purpose – to inspire fashion choices, introduce new brands/experiences, and share authentically.”
