25 "Walk Of Shame" Instagram Captions That'll Show You Did New Year's Eve Right

The holiday season is filled with celebration and tradition. From Thanksgiving to the midnight kiss as the ball drops on New Year’s Eve, we all indulge in the customs that are the framework of this time of year: dutifully documenting it all on social media. But there’s one tradition that you won’t see on any holiday cards, or in any holiday specials, and that is the annual migration taken by thousands every year, known as the New Year's Day "walk of shame"... which means it's also time get your walk of shame Instagram captions polished up, because it’s time to let everyone know there’s nothing shameful about kicking of the new year by getting lucky.

Before we go any further, let's quickly dispense the shame portion of this idea, because seriously, there is nothing shameful about having a good time and having sex. Instead of slinking home with our high heels in hand in last night's ~lewk~, I say let's hold our heads up high and make 2018 the year of the Stride of Pride. Because there's nothing like the shine of sequins in the 6 a.m. sun to say, "Yep, I did New Year’s Eve right." And if you cross paths with another post-coitus pilgrim, give that girl a high five.

Need some Insta caption inspiration? Here are 25 ideas to get you started.

1. It it isn’t a "walk of shame." It's the "I just got laid New Year's Day parade.”

If you're looking for a resolution you can keep, make this year's to fully own your sexuality and to not let anyone make you feel shameful about it. Because feeling shame about going after what you want? That's some 2017 nonsense.
