Oh Snap! Digital Polaroids!

Hello my lovely people, I hope your having a fabulous week hanging on to the last windy remains of summer. Over the weekend I went to my last summer 2014 beach party, and mucked around with my friends fantastically vintage polaroid camera. I went home with this profound and overwhelming thought - ooooohhhh, I really want one!!!

Being unemployed at the ripe old age of 14, I mainly rely on my parents, and I can't convince them in all their logical ways to pay $2 per beautiful polaroid picture. It was then I got creative. I spend a while crawling the web for digital polaroid generators when I came across my new best digital friend (behind blogger, of course.) Available for Mac, on the App Store, is Instant! For a tiny comparison of $5.49, I was sold. Here's a little review of the ingenious app.

 So, the app looks like this, a pretty little Instant camera, similar to the Instagram one!
 Just drag your photo onto the camera
 Crop your photo into the right shape
 The Instant camera prints out the little strip, just like a real one, you know just not actually real..
 Then wait for the photo to develop. I'd avoiding being a total hipster and doing the 'shake it like a polaroid', if you shake your entire computer you're probably going to break something. If you don't have any idea what I'm talking about, get yourself into a Typo store already you outsider! Just kidding, your beautiful xx
 Now for my favourite part, pick your filter! You can change your photo to different filters, so they look like their from different time periods. Wahhh I just love this!
 There's also a bunch more settings for stuff like the colour of the slip, and the amount of fingerprints on the photo! Lol!
 Also, add cool captions in different colours and fonts!

Here's our beautiful polaroid! I hope you just love this app as much as I do, and you have an awesome last week of summer. If your popping by a newsagent, pick up an issue of Dolly, and read the Blog Squad. It includes all my FAVOURITE bloggers, and I'm super keen to check it out. I'll leave you with some more of my favourite digi-polaroids :)
