An outfit idea can come from anywhere. Maybe you're walking down the street and you spot someone interesting out of the corner of your eye, or, as is more often the case, maybe you've carefully curated your Instagram feed to serve you up a handful of winning outfit ideas on the daily. If the latter sounds at all familiar, chances are you're always searching for new people to fill up your feed with fresh ideas.
Well, my Instagram-loving friends, you've come to the right place because today I'm sharing with you a group of women who are style experts in their own right but not always an obvious resource: fashion designers. Think about it: They're usually their own models, and, as such, their personal style is an extension of how they envision their brands being worn IRL—or is it the other way around? In any case, I've taken to following six of these creative women who have a notably strong presence on Instagram.

Haley Boyd, Marais
Minimalism didn't go anywhere if you're asking Haley Boyd. The designer behind Marais, a line of pared-back sandals and ladylike heels, has a distinctly minimalist (dare I say "French-girl"?) style, which has earned her 60,000 loyal Instagram followers.
Shop Marais' latest:
Alana Johnson, Orseund Iris
There's no denying that the celeb-adored NYC-based Orseund Iris is a veritable cool-girl brand, and designer Alana Johnson has everything to do with that. Though her designs have graced everyone from Emily Ratajkowski to Kourtney Kardashian, Johnson shows off how to wear the pieces in a really everyday way on her personal account and (bonus) shares glimpses of her design prototypes before they launch.

Karla Deras Chambers, The Line by K
If you're a fashion blogger turned-designer then, well, it goes without saying that you have a really strong sense of personal style. Karla Deras Chambers of her namesake The Line by K is both her own muse and best model, styling her pieces so naturally that she makes it seem like by shopping TLK you're really shopping pieces from her very own closet (which, by the way, is an enviable one).
