Instagram can be an invaluable source of inspiration and information, especially for moms! But far too often we can be misled by fake followings, paid likes + comments, and even worse- people pretending to live a life that’s very different from their reality. You know the type… posting non-stop, giving tips as if they’re a guru of all things, meanwhile they usually have a child or two just off screen staring at an iPad for hours while Mommy picks the perfect filter to use for her daily check-ins that no one asked for.
With Mother’s Day fast approaching, we thought it would be the perfect time to share a round-up of Hong Kong Moms with real followings and most importantly REAL inspiring lives. Our top 10 picks won’t spam you with daily nonsense and you can rest assured that the life they lead online and off is one in the same. Scroll through our list of Hong Kong Moms who live with purpose, value sustainability and share content sure to fill your feed with encouragement and positivity.

Norbyah is a mom of three, and teacher by day whose love of vintage and pre-loved fashion has us looking at our wardrobes with fresh eyes.
