Do you follow me on instagram? If you don’t, you should. #maybeimbiased #butyoureallyshould 😉
WHY should you follow me on instagram? Well, I often times put content on ig that never makes it to the blog (including some personal pics from my family life here and there), and I also give instagram followers sneak peaks of items before the item/outfit gets to the blog. And y’all know, sometimes super popular items don’t last long, so the sneak peaks can be very handy!
If you do follow me on instagram, you are probably familiar with Like To Know It. But even if you’ve seen it mentioned, you may or may not know what it is and how to use it appropriately. I think it’s GENIUS. I use it myself all the time, and I think if most of you knew how simple it was, you would use it too!
In a nutshell, Like To Know It is an awesome service that allows people to shop my instagram feed. Once you sign up (it’s super easy and takes very little time), all you have to do is “like” a photo that you are interested in, and Like To Know It will send you an e-mail with the links to every item that I’m wearing directly to your inbox. Really. It’s that simple! HOW COOL IS THAT? No more asking “Where are your shoes/earrings/dress/shirt/jeans from?!?” Just “like” the photo, and then open the e-mail that is sent to you!
So, how do you get started?
- Go HERE and familiarize yourself with the service by watching the short instructional video (it’s only 1 minute and 25 seconds) at the bottom of the page!
- Register. It takes under 2 minutes, it’s free, and I promise you won’t get random spam or anything! When registering you can decide things like time frame of when you want your e-mails delivered. Do you want it once a week, once a day, or within 5 minutes or so of liking the e-mail? I want it immediately.
- Start using Like To Know It!
When you see an item you like on instagram, if you see the @liketoknow.it tag in the bloggers text, then all you have to do is “like” the photo to have the details sent directly to your inbox! I mean, it doesn’t get any easier that that! This is what your e-mail will look like. This is just a screen shot of one of my e-mails (the technology isn’t enabled), but when you receive it, all you have to do is click on the thumbnail image of the item you are interested in, and you will be linked directly to the item! STOP! ISN’T THAT AWESOME!?!
If for some reason you don’t want to sign up for Like To Know It, if you see something I post on instagram and you want to know about it immediately, you can hop over here (to the blog). When you are on the blog you can see the most current instagram on my right hand sidebar under “SHOP MY INSTAGRAMS “, and you can see my latest 4 instagrams on the footer of my page (just scroll down to the very bottom). You can click on those to get to the outfit links!
Here are my most recent instagrams. If you are interested in one of the outfits, just click on it!
Let me know if you have any Like To Know It questions! I know it seems crazy at first, but it really is super user friendly! See y’all back here on Friday for Friday Favorites. I’ve got some good ones!

Narci says
I love Like to Know it! It’s like my own personal shopper emailing me all of my shopping links so I can go through and check everything out when I have the chance! Pure genius!
Kim Nations says
This is awesome. I always wondered how it worked. Thank you for explaining. Love your blog.
Erin says
Ok, I’m technologically challenged, so don’t judge. I DEFINITELY want to sign up, but my only question is…do I have to have my own Instagram account to do it? I currently do not and don’t really want an Instagram account.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Erin! Yes, you do. So sorry! 🙁
Chas @ Haute Mommy Blog says
Yes, please continue updating the page here. I just can’t handle one more service or email or login!!! I’d rather just click through the blog than use liketoknow

Sheaffer says
Hi, Morgan! I’m sorry to say I’m not. Two days a week is just too much for me! 🙁
Christine says

Oh my word! You were so right about the Wit and Wisdom absolution jeans!! I really didn’t think they would work on me because I’m short and “curvy” and have gained some weight lately. LOL! The size 12 jeans fit me great!! I’ve been reading your blog for two years and this is the first time I’ve commented because I’m that excited over these jeans. I love your blog and all your reviews. Thank you again!
