We all Snapchattoo much. There I said it. I flick through my Snapchat story instead of listening to my actual friends (sorry) can never remember to floss but can always remember to see what @kylizzlemynizzl is doing (I know) and I can’t sit down for a civilised meal in Prezzo without my pals slamming my fork out of my hand, ‘Don’t EAT that! I haven’t uploaded a picture to my Snapchat story yet!’
Now I am not saying that we should boycott Snapchat, don’t be ridiculous. It’s a great medium to take selfies with flowers on your nonce and I bet it has brought together many couples due to it’s..er… sexting qualities.
However, if we make a conscious effort to fill our Snapchat address book with more women that are funny, smart and god damn inspirational – it will make our late night Snapchat story viewing sesh a lot less guilty.
Plus, maybe their fabulousness will rub off on us (no, not like that…you are already fabulous…you know what I meant? More fabulous? They will inspire you when you’re feeling a bit disheartened on a Sunday evening? Yes let’s go with that).
Here are some inspiring women you should follow on Snapchat – counting down from least to most on how Insta-worthy their best* quote is:
