17 Reasons Why Gisele’s Instagram Is the Best Healthy Living Guide Ever
Gisele is not only the world’s most recognizable supermodel and arguably the Boston-area’s most famous resident (sorry, Tom), she’s also unknowingly the best lifestyle blogger on the planet. Except, she doesn’t write a word—unless you count a caption as prose—and she doesn’t try to sell anything, unlike the other lifestyle gurus (sorry, Gwyneth).
The green juice-drinking, charity-giving, yoga-practicing mother of two, has been quietly documenting the secrets to her life, from her morning ritual to her favorite juice recipe, through her Instagram feed. The advice is surprisingly realistic, authentic, and you can tell that most of the time, it’s really Gisele herself behind the lens.
Hopefully, one day, she’ll put it all into her own book. (Call me, Gisele, ghostwriter for hire here). But in the meantime, we’ll continue to read between the lines to learn just how we can live like an international supermodel who happens to live in Brookline. Here, 17 reasons why Gisele’s Instagram is the best and most practical healthy living guide in the world.
