Can you guess what the 10 most Instagrammed trends of 2017 were?

accreditation

This year really came in hot with major fashion trends. They came from the runways but we fell in love with them on Instagram.

Think of how often you spotted something at your favourite store, took a mental note to buy it at month end, and by the time you went back they no longer had it in your size or it was sold out. Worst.

I blame it on Instagram's see-now, buy-now culture.

Rihanna may have said "Instagram is where trends go to die," but that didn't seem to be the case with local style aficionados in 2017.
