Manage your Instagram feed from Hootsuite dashboard

It's been a long time coming but thanks to Hootsuite there's now a decent, quick loading Instagram web app that makes light work of managing your Instagram stream from the comfort of your Hootsuite dashboard.

Multiple Instagram streams on the Hootsuite dashboard

Of course this isn't the first third party online Instagram app but I've always found Webstagram and Statigram to be slow and glitchy. 
First impressions of the Hootsuite app are pretty good I'm disappointed that it doest have a multi account function, Now that would have been something to shout about.

Key features include:
Share Instagram photos to your social networks
View feeds for: Your photos, users you follow, popular pics and your likes
View and post comments and likes
View user information

Come on Hootsuite, not having to log in and out of my personal and work Instagram accounts would make me very, very happy and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

You can download the Hootsuite Instagram app via the Hootsuite App Directory and it's FREE!

WIWW : The Cybher Girls Edition

This post may well be a bit of a cheat as I'm sure both Claire and Ryan will have used it too but hey it's a great pic and we all love it!

We live about as far away from each other that the UK allows and don't get to spend a lot of time together in the flesh but last weekend we had a really special treat in the form of three days together in London.

We were there to attend a conference but also to hang out and have fun. If the photo is anything to go by it looks like we managed it pretty well! 

I'm wearing a fluro pink jumper from H&M and a big smile!
I'm also wearing a a rather special skirt that my beloved, Yan To made for me but that will get its own dedicated post really soon.
Tucked inside my jumper you may catch my favourite Cybher pink Freya bra, which brings me neatly on to their awesome new Blog Star competition!

Freya are searching for fabulous, new blogging talent to contribute to their Fitting Talk blog. You need to be creative, stylish, sassy, fashionable and love, love lingerie. So if that sounds like you pop over to their site to find out how to enter. You never know you could be the lucky blogger that bags all of the cool prizes!

What I Wore Today : The Girls Weekend

I'm heading down to London this weekend to spend the weekend with my best buddies Ryan and Claire. We'll be relaxing, laughing and knocking back too many cocktails as well as brainstorming for Cybher 2013 and celebrating Ryan's birthday.

I have a couple outfits in the pipeline. One is being made for me by Yan and the other possible is this.

The MAD Cybher Ticket Giveaway

It's been a big week for me personally with Cybher hitting the coveted top spot in the Tots100 May Brand Index and to celebrate I'm having a little old giveaway.
But first I want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me through this last year. You all made Cybher the amazing experience that it was.
Twitter was awash with the #Cybher hashtag and it clocked up a reach of over 5 million in just 48 hours!
So this is my way of thanking you for every single tweet and blog post. To have had more mentions than the likes of NEXT, X Box, Tesco, Volvo & Lego quite frankly blows me away.
Cybher was the most talked about blogger event that the UK has ever seen. 300 of the most influential female bloggers (and a couple of guys too) proved just how powerful their words can be.

So to the giveaway...
I have to say that it's pretty epic prize consisting of;
  • A coveted Cybher 12 bag, handmade by The Leather Satchel Co.
  • A ticket to the other must attend blogger event of 2012, the MAD Blog Awards final.
  • A ticket to Cybher 13.

The third annual Mum and Dad Blog Awards aka the MAD's, in association with Parentdish.co.uk are the UK's biggest and most exciting awards for parent bloggers. This year they received more than 100,000 nominations and votes which is quite frankly, amazing.



Even more amazing is that I'm a finalist so I'll be there at the finals on Friday 28th September too! Entry is by invitation only and I can't thank Sally enough for donating this prize.

Cybher 13 will take place on 1st June 2013, at 8 Northumberland Avenue, London, so save the date now. 
Not surprisingly following the buzz around this years event, over half of the early bird tickets have already been sold.

Please enter using the Rafflecopter widget below (please note that widget doesn't always work on a mobile device).
Don't forget you can use the Tweet to enter option every day to boost your chances of winning!



The MAD's award ceremony takes place on the evening of Friday 28th September in central London. Cybher 13 takes place on Saturday 1st June 2013 in central London.
