Staying Safe On The Internet: Instagram
Hi Lovelies!
Today is a learning day! Did you know that you can find out someone’s exact location via Instagram? Yeah, I mean exact. Down to the house they are living in. This makes is beyond easy for someone creeeeeepy to find out where you and your family live. Scary huh? Well, have no fear, I’m here today to show you how to A. find out if your information is being shared, B. find out how to take the location off of any pictures you have already unknowingly tagged, and C. make sure that you no longer give away this private information!
Are you sharing your location with strangers?
Well, if you have ever tagged a restaurant, grocery store, gym, airport, zoo, etc. chances are you have been sharing your location with people unknowingly. To find out for sure, go to your profile in Instagram and click on the map button as shown in the picture below. If a map shows up, you are sharing your location! If a message shows up telling you about the photo map and telling you that it is currently empty, you are safe! Woohoo for you! (If your map shows up, zoom all the way in on the pictures, it literally shows your house if you have posted pictures there….scary!)
So, you’re sharing your location…how do you get it to stop?!?
Great question, and it is SO easy! 1. Go to your profile in Instagram and click on the map button. 2. You will see photos on the map. 3. Click on the menu button in the top right hand corner of the screen. An “Edit” button will pop up when you do.
4. Once you have clicked edit, the screen will go dim except for the photos. 5. Click on the photos and then press edit in the pop up. 6. A new screen will show that has all of your photos on it. You can click on each picture individually or at the bottom of the screen (not shown) press “Deselect All”.
Click “Done” in the upper right corner and a window like the one below should pop up. Click “Confirm” and that’s it, you’ve untagged all of your photos!
I’ve taken location off of all my pictures, how do I make sure I don’t do it again?
When you are uploading a photo, uncheck the “Add to Photo Map” box just below “Tag People”. Once unchecked your pictures will not show up on the map! Simple as that. You can also turn of locations on your phone to be sure, but I use a run tracking app that needs locations/GPS to function so that doesn’t work for me.
Now, I’m not an expert, so if I have gotten anything wrong here, don’t hesitate to let me know in the comments! Let me know if you have any questions at all as well!

Hi Lovelies!
I hope you all had as wonderful of a weekend as I did. We did lots of grilling, lots of organizing, more grilling, a little hangin’ out with friends, a little game playing, a little more grilling, some sunbathing, and even a little swimming. It was a blast! If you would like more detail you can head on over to my Instagram account and see there…although I didn’t do a very good job documenting all of the fun until Monday. Oh well…it’s the best I could do:)
Today, we are here to talk about something that is a HUGE problem in my life. Target. Now, by problem I mean that they cannot stop making amazing clothes! I can’t deny, I saw this skirt on Bethany‘s Instagram (Perfectly Coutured) and just about died….I HAD to have it. It has the perfect amount of class, with a little bit of fun all in one! So, obviously, I went to Target ASAP and picked it up….along with a leopard one, a blazer, this mustard cardigan, and a few other small things. Like I said, it is a HUGE problem in my life. Thankfully, this skirt was only $22….may I say once again that I LOVE Target?

Well, with all of that being said, it is a new month…and I am on a spending freeze. I have bought far too much this summer and it is time to wear all of the glorious things that I already have in my closet a few times before I buy anything else:) Wish me luck with this one…I will need it!
Until tomorrow…
