Along with two fellow Bristol-based Instagrammers, katiejanekonstanz and Rachel Emily, Lois has founded Influencer Collective, whose first event takes place at Gold Bar on September 19 promising “an opportunity to connect influencers and brands in an Instagrammable setting”.

Here are Lois’ top-five Bristol favourites:

“There are just so many different places at Wapping Wharf and it’s so picturesque, with the lighting amazing for pictures. It’s very quirky and very ‘Bristol’.”

The Florist

The Florist on Park Street is also very picturesque. There are so many different rooms and the toilets are really nice as well. The food is really nice, the staff are really nice and the cocktails are amazing. I go there so often that the staff recognise me now.”

Bird & Blend

“The teas that they sell at Bird & Blend, also on Park Street, are so different, so completely original but also completely natural. They are so good for you. I also go here so often and the staff are really nice.”

The Lido

“I love it at the Lido. I wish I was a member. Swimming in the wind is so cool. I love having cold air in my face while in the water.”

Everyman Cinema

The Everyman Cinema on Whiteladies Road is just so cosy. When it snowed earlier this year, we walked up. It was absolutely freezing cold. We got there and just wrapped ourselves in blankets.”
