This June has been one hell of a month for taking photos of our town. There’s so much going on! There’s an argument to be made for trying to do it all, showing at every backyard BBQ and seeing every concert, but there’s also a reminder to just relax, choose one thing, and be present. You can check your Instagram feed when ya get home, or first thing in the morning on Fridays like we always hope you do!

This is week two of three with Modern Nostalgia as your sponsor for our roundup. They’ve chosen some select items to give away to the top ‘gram this week from their Hertel Ave location. One of the very few locally owned clothing boutiques with apparel for both women AND men, their Hertel or Canalside locations are worth checking out for some fresh looks.

There were a ton of great uploads this week and tight competition for the #1. Thank you all for tagging #RiseBFLO and contributing to that community – now with over 10,000 uploads holy shit!

 

This week’s winner:

JERRY! Awesome shot. If you aren’t following @sevenoneflix yet, what are you waiting for? So much of his greatness comes in the form of creative video posts on IG which are unfortunately difficult for us to feature, so when we saw this beautiful still we had to make it the winner. Email us hey@risecollaborative.com to see how to claim your prize from MOD NOS.

All this week’s ‘grams that made ya say “Hot Damn!”

I spent Monday and Tuesday in bed with a crippling migraine. It was my first time experiencing one and is something I never want to go through again! If you have any natural, homemade remedies I’d love to know so I can be prepared in the future
