You’ve been posting “plandids” for years and you didn’t even know it.

Tipped to be the hottest Insta trend of the summer, this newly coined term actually describes a pretty well-established Instagram practice that many of us have been doing for yonks.

SEE ALSO: ‘Finstas’ can be boring or funny or sexy but they’re always real

So, what exactly are plandids? The word is a portmanteau of “planned” and “candid,” which kinda sounds like a contradiction in terms. The idea is to post “as if you didn’t know the picture was being taken, but you’re still posing,” according to Instagrammer Maria Gillett.

“Kind of like you’ve been caught in the act of looking good in an ‘off duty model’ sort of way,” Gillett adds.

Fashion and beauty Instagram blogger A La Mol says she’d been “accidentally” doing them long before she heard the term “plandid” online from another influencer. She describes the trend as an attempt to achieve “that infamous candid look Instagram models seem to always nail.”

It’s unclear precisely who coined the term but a quick Instagram search will show you more than 500 plandids of people trying to nail that nonchalant look. You’ll see a stream of people looking oh-so-casually at the ground, or gazing into the horizon. Others will be mid-prance with a hand cocked to a jaunty angle. “Oh, I didn’t even realise you were taking a photo,” is the aesthetic.

Plandid Candid I had a media breakfast at the @thevandalpgh @visitpittsburgh which is a modern minimalist style cafe for breakfast + lunch + dinner. It’s a cute spot but also super health conscious. You can get yogurt with edible flowers and the fluffiest eggs ever. If you are vegans plenty of options here too! #LovePGH #TravelByKiwi #visitpittsburgh #pittsburghsmostdope #pittsburgh #KiwiTheBeauty #TravelBlogger #Plandid #PressTrip

So, why is this trend so popular? Gillett thinks people love taking plandids because “people don’t like to look like they’re making too much effort.”

“Because it’s meant to look like somebody else took the photo while you weren’t looking, it kind of gives the person an excuse for putting up the photo, without looking really vain and contrived,” says Gillett.

Really caught off guard.. #plandid

But, just how new is this purportedly new trend? Professional photographer Ronald Timehin says the word plandid is basically a “new term for an already existing concept.” He says in his line of work he’s often “directing people to move, stand or pose in a certain way” with the aim of making the final image look as “natural as possible.”

“This is nothing new as photographers and models have been doing this for years, before social media was even a thing,” says Timehin.

Hope y’all had winning starts to the week! I’ve popped the deets from this outfit over on alamollie.com in my PEP&CO post for all you need to know about Poundland’s new clothing range. I repeat: cheap.gym.clothes. [Now there really is no excuse] #pepandco #poundland #ootd #plandid #MondayMotivation #wod

So, how do we take a good plandid? Timehin says the best way to take a good plandid is to make the person physically move. “Then shoot using burst mode, capturing all the little intricate details of the expression, rather than a static often forced pose,” he says.

A La Mol says that she tends to look down for “that ‘I didn’t realise there was a camera’ look.”

“I then just take a million (not even exaggerating) photos while I’m moving to capture that specific ‘casual’ moment.”

Have a great start to the week everyone. I’ll be shooting on Wednesday so if you would like to join, send me a DM

Don’t even try to deny it: we have all taken and posted plandids on our Instagrams. And, why shouldn’t we they look cute as hell. Perhaps, by adding the #plandid hashtag, you’re actually being more real with your followers.

How freaking cute is this summer dress from @pepandco??? I think it was something crazy cheap like £5.00. It is perfect for over your swim things at the beach, or a pool party. Or just chilling when it's too damn hot! #summer #summervibes #pepandco #fashionbargains #fashionpost #dress #bright #floral #tropical #print #cute #plussizefashion #highstreetfashion #summery #tropicalprint #plussizeandproud #ukfashion #madeupwithmel #fashionblogger (at Kent)

Stay Beautiful! I was doing some shopping the other day and couldn't help a quick dressing room snap! The backpack is £9 from @primark The top is (blue in real life, photos to follow!) £8 from @pepandco #fashion #retailtherapy #shopping #plussizefashion #pepandco #blackandwhite #fashionphotography #fashionofinstagram #dressingroom #tryonhaul #clothes #peplumtop #backpack (at Dartford)

Just me being all cute and stuff. 🤭 I'm wearing some shorts from @pepandco and my @simplybeuk basic t shirt (from a 3 pack). Pep and Co only go up to a size 22 but these fit me with room to spare at a size 28. When you're out shopping don't be afraid to pull things off the hanger and give them a stretch to see if they will fit. I'm pretty good at judging by eye if things will fit me (years of practice) but you could measure yourself so you know your digits and carry a tape measure in your bag to measure clothes with. I'm sure there are MANY clothes out there which are oversized and us fat babes *shouldn't* fit in them but can. Pep and Co also have some leopard print shorts in the same generous sizing which @mookie7x7 picked up. Photo by my boo ❤️ — view on Instagram http://bit.ly/2Yqlybx

[leahlovescatsandbacon]

These are the days. Laying on my back in the cool grass on a hot day with the wife @mookie7x7 by my side. Wearing an oversized @pepandco vest top in size 20(!). I think it cost about £3. #selfie #pepandco #neon #snakeprint — view on Instagram http://bit.ly/2HQgvun
