And we definitely wouldn’t have called that one…

We all have Instagram regret – those photos that seemed like a great idea at the time, but on closer inspection don't work on your feed the next morning.

Instagram regret gets a whole lot worse when you’re a celebrity – with reality star Kim Kardashian having 102 million followers to answer to if she makes a social media blunder.

Kim recently took part in a make up tutorial video with YouTuber Patrick Starrr where she opened up about her Instagram habits, explaining how she (like everyone) has some Instagram photos that she wishes she'd never posted.

To everyone’s surprise, the Instagram snap that 36-year-old Kim felt particular regret over was her social media announcement that she was engaged, back in 2o13.

The black and white photo shows Kim’s huge engagement ring, with Kanye’s sign ‘PLEEEASE MARRY MEEEE!!!’ illuminated in the background on the San Francisco Giants AT&T Park.

‘One of my biggest photo regrets is when I got engaged and I had the shortest nails when I showed my picture,’ Kim explained. ‘It would have looked so much better with long nails.’

Opening up about how she hates her hands, Kim went on to discuss her love of long nails, but did add that it makes applying make up impossible, explaining ‘I can’t even function when I have long nails.’

She then went on to rank the Kardashian sisters’ nails in terms of length. The top spot went to Khloe who apparently has the longest nails of all the Kardashians, shortly followed by Kylie and then Kendall. Kim ranked herself fourth, with Kourtney reportedly having the shortest nails in the family.

To be honest, if this is Kim's biggest Instagram regret, she's doing better than us.
