From adorable animals to the world’s most breathtaking destinations, these are the Instagram accounts that our editors love

1. @round.animals

"@round.animals is an account dedicated to fluffy or chubby animals…I like to look at this account when I’m having a bad day."Justine Lee, Fashion Director  

2. @octonation

"@octonation. Since reading Soul of an Octopus by Sy Montgomery I’ve been obsessed with these whip-smart cephalopods. Not only are they masters of disguise—changing their skin colour and texture to mimic their surroundings and other creatures—but they’re also daring escape artists known to have broken out of aquarium tanks by squeezing their boneless, tentacled bodies through tiny holes less than an inch wide. This fascinating feed gives me and 169,000 other mollusc fans a regular dose of octo-love."—Jakki Phillips, Editor in Chief
