These 5 Brands Are the Secret to Your Favorite Instagrammers’ Style

Elizabeth Sherwood

If you haven’t shown up at the office wearing the same outfit as a co-worker, have you really lived? Kidding, but when we all spend our weekends hitting the same go-to retailers like Zara, H&M, and Topshop, it’s nearly inevitable that you and someone you know might both grab the same runway dupe.

And though shopping big-name designers isn’t always (well, almost never) an option, somehow the Instagrammers we all follow — bloggers, editors, and influencers alike — always seem to dodge that same ruffled shirt we’ve seen a million times, or they’re two months ahead on a trend that hasn’t filtered down to the fast-fashion stores yet. But if you look closely, they’re all wearing the same few brands too — you just haven’t heard of them yet.

Ahead, find five brands fashion Instagrammers love, and see our top pieces from each.

Staud

With on-point styling and a decent Instagram following, Staud is the L.A. brand you’ve probably seen on both Leandra Medine and that up-and-coming blogger whose name you keep forgetting. We highly recommend bookmarking the brand’s editorials when your own closet feels tired.

Loéil

Those knockoff Gucci shoes that fooled you? That faux fur that looks anything but? We can almost guarantee it came from LOÉIL.

Stylenanda

This Korean shop, which is a trove of hard-to-find gems like graphic tees and frilled blouses nobody else has, offers a bizarre 8 percent off of everything almost every day.
