Our Favorite Southern Entertainers on Instagram

@camillestyles

This Austin, Texas blogger has become a beloved resource for everything from fanciful desserts (like pistachio cakes with honey-lemon yogurt glaze) to party-pleasing cocktails.

@julieblanner

This St. Louis blogger’s soothingly neutral feed is filled with images of soft, inviting interiors and simple and sweet treats. We love her humorous and sweet Easter treats.

@jessicasloane

Based in Nashville, this creative powerhouse (titles include creative director, event planner, florist, designer, and stylist) works on projects worldwide and creates some seriously dreamy tablescapes.

@theschoolofstyling

If you’re here to learn, then you’ve found the right account. The School of Styling is based in North Carolina, but hosts workshops around the country (many of which are in the southeast!). You can’t look at their feed without getting major floral inspiration.

@buffyhargettflowers

Okay, we’re biased, seeing how she’s our senior staff stylist and resident floral genius, but her Instagram is objectively, total entertaining inspiration. Impress guests with one of her brilliant “easy wows,” aka, floral arrangements that are totally doable, even for us beginner florists.

@waitingonmartha

Waiting on Martha (of Atlanta!) is an all-around great follow for the best of modern Southern style. She’s full of fun entertaining ideas (like her dreamy picnic guide), but also her online shop is a great resource for gifts that are somehow simultaneously quirky and classic.

@pizzazzerie

Courtney, based in Nashville, does not back down from color or fun--which is what makes her the perfect spirit guide for any party planning or tablescape-arranging venture. Important note: if you’re in the business of throwing tea parties for teddy bears, she also has an Instagram account dedicated to her daughter’s crazy-cute parties.

@packedparty

Packed Party is an Austin, Texas-based brand that helps you send the perfect pick-me-up package to a friend or just bring a little sparkle to your own day with their “packed party” boxes.

The boxes are themed (e.g., birthday, miss you, etc.) but are always filled items that are playful, colorful, and probably sparkly. Their Instagram feed is SO fun you can’t leave without wanting a disco ball shaped drink for yourself.
