9 Instagrammers That Create Epic Flat Lays

Prepare to be inspired (and obsessed!).
________

It probably comes as no surprise, considering the aesthetic of my own Instagram account, but I have a soft spot for a damn good flat lay. And, as it turns out, so does pretty much everyone else. Ye ole statistics say that flat lays actually get more 'likes' on Instagram, plus they're kind of super crazy fun to create (I've already spilled  My Secret for Creating Flat Lays). Of course, I take a ridiculous amount of pleasure out scrolling through the #flatlay hashtag feed, so I figured it was about time I shared the love and my favourite Instagram accounts that lay down a flat lay that could compete with the qween herself.

PS. The one above is a creation of my own. I had way too much fun creating it, heh-heh-heh.

@TARAMILKTEA



Amongst the #goal worthy travel photos and pretty outfits, Tara creates the most magical flat lays that often include colourful plates of delicious food that exude a lifestyle we'd all dream about. Of course, as flat lay experts ourselves, we know just how much hard work, creativity and patience goes behind each and every single one of her perfectly curated photographs.

@MEOHMYGIRL



When I first stumbled across Charli's Instagram page, I had to do a double take. I mean, surely this type of beauty and perfection can't be possible, right? Wrong. Combining her impeccable skills as a photographer, visual artist and art director, Charli has managed to captivate me with each and every beautiful image featured on her account. Oh, and did I mention she has impeccable personal style? Well, she definitely does.

@LICHIPAN



I'll admit to spending far too long scrolling through Li-Chi's stunning Instagram page. With each intricate photo layered with dream-like filters, it's probably no surprise that I often find myself lost in her images, complete with beautiful blooms, drool worthy sweets and perfect moments. Unfortunately, it's back to reality for me once I realise that that donut milkshake isn't really mine. Le sigh.

@MILKTHISTLES



If you're into all things pretty and pink, then trust me when I say, you're definitely into Melissa's stunning account. With what seems like a never-ending supply of pink peonies, pink roses and, yes, even pink cherry blossoms, this is Instagram's ultimate girly girl page. Just be aware that you'll end up wanting to surround yourself with more notebooks and quirky office supplies than you could ever need. Hey, there could be worse side effects.

@PHOEBESOUP



Fancy a spot of minimalism and monochrome with a hint of slightly desaturated colour? Then you'll fall head-over-heels for Pheobe's feed, which is scattered with delicate jewellery, black accessories and latte art. BRB - off to drink copious amounts of coffee.

@DESIGNBYAIKONIK



As a photographer and graphic designer, it's no surprise that Carissa does good flat lay. Very, very good flat lay. And not just that. This jet-setting creative also has an eye for capturing life's beautiful moments, like her stylish office, cafe eats and high end makeup lineups that will have you wanting more.

@LIONLIONBAZAAR



How I hadn't discovered this stylish duo previously dumbfounds me, because -  ZOMG - Teresa and Bronte sure know a good looking photo (and have even more beautiful things!). Before long, your wish list will be chockers full of super rad sneakers, high quality basics and minimalist watches, and there is nothing wrong with that! Let's swap wardrobes, ladies? Just kidding, kind of.
________

@CHLOEHOLLYWOOD



And just when you think it couldn't possibly get any better, along comes Chloe's bold account filled with black and white goodies, and the odd splash of bright colour. Needless to say, this girl has got some killer style and it only takes one glance at her multitudes of outfit photos to be convinced. What really got me hooked, though, is her array of luxe products arranged perfectly in flay lay heaven. Girl got the goods.

@ANNAHECEK



Finally, there was no way I was going to leave out Anna and her visually stunning feed. While she has an impeccable eye for style, it's her lifestyle focus that I'm engrossed with - can you blame a gal? Nestled in-between shots of the photogenic Bondi Icebergs and Whistler covered in a white blanket (how I miss thee!) are #OOTD flat lays and so much more. You can thank me later.

Now it's time for you to share with me your favourite Instagram flat lay-ers! Who's on your must-follow list?
