Social media has now become a hub for information, entertainment and inspiration for the general population. With the impact that social media now has, more people are using it as a catalyst for their own business growth and development. In recent years, the term “influencer” has become more prevalent as Instagram is the primary social site for designers, producers, stylists and all creatives to express themselves. Here are five influencers who you’d love on your feed.

Alani, or @wuzg00d, has a refreshing, yet intriguing approach to fashion and accessories. Her feed boasts all colors of the rainbow, which most would shy away from. She color coordinates in a way that is aesthetically pleasing and doesn’t feel too in your face. Her flashy accessories complete her outfits, which all have the signature New York flare. She’s all in the details, from her earrings to her bedazzled nails to her shoe laces.

Her personal style matches her raw, underground DJ sets.

Farren “Fucci” Andrea has been blazing through the fashion scene. His styling of Paper Magazine’s iconic Rihanna spread first put him on the map. With the set including purple ponytails, Chanel and malt liquor, Farren’s take on fashion sparked a conversation. He now styles some of the biggest names in the industry, like Bella Hadid and Jhene Aiko. He’s also walked the Dolce and Gabbana runway — twice.
