Instagram released its Archive feature in June,Tahong but you might not know what it's for or how to use it.
Archive lets you hide photos and videos from your profile without completely deleting them. That way, you can bring them back later if you want to do so.
SEE ALSO: Apple’s Instagram account reeks of desperationInstagram phrases it as giving you the flexibility to represent how you evolve over time, but Archive is really just a way to hide embarrassing selfies or videos that didn't get enough likes. Because we've all seen the classic "felt cute, might delete later" post.

Here's everything you need to know about actually using Archive.
Archiving a photo is pretty simple. Just click on the post you want to archive. Go to the "..." menu in the upper righthand corner of the photo.

But don't worry, your archived photos and videos are super easy to find. Hit the little clock icon that sits in the upper righthand corner of your profile and all of your Archived photos will appear there.

Click on the photo you want to repost in the Archive folder. Once again, hit the "..." menu above the photo. This time you'll want to choose "Show on Profile."

There you have it. Archiving on Instagram sounds a little complicated, but it's actually quite simple. So, if you're feeling a little self-conscious about that selfie you posted earlier, take two seconds to hide it for a while if that's the best move.
