Ana makes us feel like we, too, could have Pinterest-worthy homes. We love her clean, curated home style, full of natural hues and textures. She talks to her followers like she's talking to her BFF, sharing from the heart while being unafraid to laugh at herself. Give her a follow and you'll soon feel like you know her.

Jan is your weeknight dinner warrior. When you're trying to work up the enthusiasm to turn out a home-cooked meal, or need a little inspiration to actually do the meal planning you said you'd do in January, Jan's your gal. She feeds two teenage boys and a toddler daily, so you know her meals are always hearty, kid- and teen-approved, and healthy. You can find most of the recipes she gram's either here on Savvy (psst: she's our beloved food editor) or on her personal site, Family Bites.

Proving that wardrobe basics don't have to be #basic, Brandy is all about rocking the girl-next-door uniform. She makes sneakers, jeans, and tees look decidedly not boring, and has nailed the casual-comfy-chic look. With her two sweet kiddos in tow, she treats the city like her backyard and is constantly inspiring us to check out a new neighbourhood. She has an eye for detail and a knack for seeing the beauty in the small things.

Andrea has given us the travel bug. Whether it's lush parks and skyscrapers in Hong Kong, iron-hulled merchant ships in San Diego, wide open sandy beaches, or the shores of Lac Tremblant, we feel like we're seeing the world through her eyes and living vicariously through her. Hey Andrea, need a travel buddy?

These beautifully lit, pastel-hued pics just make us feel lighter. Misty just started a biz as a photographer and her skills show in her gorgeous photos. We love the way she leaves it all out their on the ‘gram—she's raw and honest in a way that we love. You know when you love your little one so much it hurts? That's the feeling she captures with her camera.

@themintedmama
Oh, the style inspo. If the words ‘fresh, floral, feminine' make you sit up straight, then you need to meet Candace. The bright colours of her feed pop off the screen and she's a big fan of a flirty dress and a red lip.

@nikkitaholder
Who better than an Olympian to give you a little #fitspo (that's fitness inspiration)? Nikkita is a track and field athlete who specialises in the 100 metres hurdles, and she won the bronze medal at the 2015 Pan American Games. This dancing, singing mama will inspire you to get up and move. And she's all about the #singlemomstrong love, too.

@sweetpotatochronicles
OK, so this feed is actually run by two moms—but they work as a unit. Laura and Ceri are business partners and friends who make it their mission to feed their families good food—healthy, fresh, and homemade. You'll see lots of fruit and veggies presented in kid-friendly ways (like the watermelon pizza above), plus why-didn't-I-think-of-that recipes. When you're wondering what's for dinner, give their feed a scroll. Plus, they're big on breakfast. We approve.

@catandnat
It's easy to mistake these two for sisters, but they're not. These BFF's and business partners do everything together, and we mean everything—from school drop offs to weeknight dinners, playground hangs and back-to-school shopping, they hold each other up and keep each other laughing. They've got seven kids between them, and are all about embracing chaos, flaws, and mess…because that's life, right?

@tracycityline
You might recognize Tracy from Cityline, aka the longest-running daytime talk show for women in Canadian history. Sure, there's behind-the-scenes pics aplenty, and we love seeing what life on a TV set is like—but it's the super-sweet home pics that really make us melt. Whether helping with homework or braiding her daughter's hair (while talking about bonding and natural hair pride) the love shines through.

@leighandmeg
You know that one friend who is always the life of the party? That's Leigh…and Meg. This sister act does everything together, and with six kids between them their feed is all happy chaos and active living. Their pics will either inspire you to take up cross fit, dance in your living room….or take a nap (sometimes it's tiring just watching them run around).

@nikkileighmckean
Nikki's bubbly personality shines through in every shot. You'll see behind the scenes shots of her Kensington Market café (Fika) and PIANO PIANO, her chef hubby's new fam-friendly Italian resto (psst: we reviewed it here). Her feed is a mix of food, home life, cheeky babies, and T.O. exploration—with the occasional shot of Meatball, the bulldog, thrown in.
