01
The Stairwell Pose
To hop on this viral Instagram pose, head to a local parking garage or a building with a cavernous stairwell. Set up your tripod or bring your bestie with you to snap a few photos of you while you’re coming down the stairs. Bonus points for a bright outfit that pops against the neutral backdrop.
02
The Car Vibes Pose
The next time you’re in your car, be sure to grab your phone and snap a quick pic. The car vibes Instagram pose is all about being on the go, so throw on that oversized sweatshirt, hop behind the wheel, and post it to your feed.
03
The Small Mirror Selfie
Just like the name implies, you’ll need a small mirror to do this Instagram pose. A small tabletop mirror, handheld mirror, or even the side mirror of a car all work perfectly. All you have to do is snap a selfie of you looking into the mirror and you’re done.
04
The Squat Pose
The squat pose has been everywhere on IG, and everyone from celebs to influencers to your BFF is doing it. It couldn’t be easier to do this viral pose; just squat, and have your friend or tripod handy for a quick pic.
05
The Museum Gaze Pose
Head to your favorite museum to participate in this viral Instagram trend. Once you get there, find a piece of art you love, then ask someone to take a photo of you admiring the piece from behind. Pink heels aren’t required.
06
The From Above Pose
For this pose, you don’t even have to take a photo of your face at all. Lift your phone high above you and point the camera down. You’ll end up with a full body-length photo, which is perfect for showing off your favorite outfit.
07
The Watching You Leave Pose
You’ll need a friend to help you take a pic for the “watching you leave” Instagram pose. First, choose a spot that captures your grid #aesthetics. Then, start walking away from your friend with the camera. They’ll snap a pic or two of you from behind that you can post.
08
The Crossing The Street Pose
Celebs and influencers love a good “crossing the street” photo, and honestly, what’s not to love? This in-action pic shows off your outfit from head to toe. Plus, it’s candid, and also gives a glimpse of where you are in the world.
09
The In-Motion/Blurry Pose
Perhaps as a way of bucking the “flawless photo” Instagram trends of the past, several Gen-Z influencers are embracing a little mess in their feed. The blurry, or in-motion, pose features a photo that’s taken when you’re moving, giving it just a bit of a blurred edge.
10
The Scenery Gaze Pose
To do this aesthetic pose, head out to a place with some gorgeous natural scenery. Then, set up your tripod or ask your friends to take a photo of you gazing out at the horizon from behind. Post to Instagram, and you’re good to go.
