And Now, 17 New Poses to Try on Instagram

We'll admit it: We're always looking for ways to up our Instagram game. We've cracked the code to making a viral fashion Instagram and have even started shopping certain trends just so we can post about them. But as far as what it takes to make sure our own personal feeds are thriving, it doesn't always have to mean investing in one of this season's It bags. Sometimes all it takes it testing out a fun new pose when shooting your next #ootd post.

Thanks to our wildly creative readers, we're super inspired to shoot our outfit posts in a whole new way. From the power squat to the perfect candid moment (even if it was anything but candid), see each of the creative outfit posts that you, our community, shared on Instagram using #WhoWhatWearing. Want to be featured next time? Use the hashtag on your outfit posts so we can see them.

The Upright Squat

Give off equally as cool street vibes as the classic squat when standing by propping one leg up on an elevated surface. Lean over your bent knee and let the world know how good you look.

The Casual Seated Pose

The trick to nailing this one is finding a low curb and bending your knees at slightly different angles to create a super-casual effect.

This one takes a bit of practice to get just right, but once you do, it's the perfect way to showcase your whole 'fit.

The "Couldn't Care Less" Squat

Just like the classic squat, this pose gives off an aura of cool. Get even more creative with your squat poses—rest your chin in your hand and your elbow on your knee for extra-casual vibes.

Step 1: Find an aesthetically pleasing coffee shop. Step 2: Take a "candid" shot while sipping your latte or staring out pensively into the abyss.

The Head Tilt
(Image credit: @styledevotee)

You can sit or stand to nail this one. Tilt your head a bit to one side, slightly pushing your chin out for a subtle amount of attitude.
