Have you submitted your nominations for Bomber and Bombshell of the Year? We’ll be having our Bomber and Bombshell of the Year showdowns on Friday, so be sure to let us know who should be in the running!
Perhaps you’ll pick today’s Bombshell, Shea from MIA:
She writes, ” Let me start by saying I am stepping way outside of my comfort zone by submitting my pictures for consideration.”
“… Of course anything that forces you out of your comfort zone has to be worth it right?”
” I would describe my personal style as classic with a trendy mix.”
” I am business professional so the majority of my outfits I post on my blog, Curvesandconfidence.com, are for those ladies that like to look professional and polished without having to be a slave to pants suits.”
” I always try to mix it up on the weekends and show my casual side which usually ends up being whatever is most comfortable for Miami weather at the time.”
” As you can see from my pictures I LOVE dresses and skirts, which work best for my curvy shape.”
” For the longest time I would shy away from anything that displayed my curves and I was always afraid to try new things.”
” Well I threw all that junk out the window and now I wear what what makes me happy.”
” I learned to appreciate what I was blessed with because it surely isn’t going anywhere.”
Cute! I love seeing professional Bombshells who keep it conservative yet stylish.

LOVE the mint green pleated dress in the last pic! Also great use of colors.
SHE ROCKED THIS!!!
cute!
Im inspired by some of your professional looks because i struggle with how to display my personal style while still dressing professionally.
your red skirt, gold belt, hot pink top combo was probably my fave.
Love, Love, Love her!!!
She certainly rocked it! Great looks with great use of colour.
Now THIS is a CURVY GIRL! I love the colors of each outfit! Go Girl!
I like the direction she’s going. Classic looks with pops of color and trend here and there.
My advice is that heat needs to be turned up on your shoes/bags/jewelry. I have to say if I’m going to wear a black pump, it has to be killer. Spikes or a nice soft leather. There has to be a wow factor in your outfit, at least one. I loved your color block outfit of the red and pink…until I got to the shoes. I would have loved to see a mixed print silk pump . Everything starts to look like you’re afraid of leaving 1st base in fear of being taggd out. I recommend going to Zara and getting some keys pieces to turn it up. But overall, you stylin my dear!
Go Boldy!!
I love her style and visit her blog regularly. Love her outfit with the fringe handbag.
simple, but tres chic for some reason.
Finally. Someone who looks employed.
I was just on her blog last night. I think she’s very stylish, but I wish she’d ditch the weaves and add more makeup and accessories to her look.
Sidenote: I need that fringed H&M bag. I never saw it in my local store :'(
She looks extremely polished and very age appropriate. Kudos.
Yup. Very well executed and I’m with Pinky on displaying personal style while still remaining professional.
Bombshell she is love and cute shape too
Yay!! Shea looks great in her professional attire! Always polished ;)
Simple and cute.
She described her style perfectly, so kudos for that! I appreciate her style, it’s very polished, even though it’s a little too conservative for me, but she DID say that these were mostly business/professional looks. I think that she should try to add a more playful element here and there to elevate her looks. Overall great job though!
That’s my girl Shea!!!! Lovvvve her style… She’s ALWAYS polished & on point to perfection!!!!!
I have been a fan of her blog for a while. Very nice
YES!!!!!!!!!! Shea KILLS it EVERYTIME! Her style is impeccable! Do it honey!
I love Shea’s style! I follow her blog and she’s ALWAYS on point; whether it be professional or casual attire. Good for you girl!
Girl…is that backdrop Aventura Mall? LOL! Former Miami res…..
But nice style…best I’ve seen even when I lived down there.
Cute!! Im not doubting her career, but professional with that above the lip ring?? Naw, not in DC. She be right at McDonalds.
Shea is always on point!! I love her outfits no matter if they’re for work or the weekends!
I guess
she rocks….she is so polished, I LOVE IT !!!!
I love it! I have been a fan of her blog and style for awhile.
Love her, love her, lovveee her!
I love it! Get it gurl………
LOVE LOVE LOVE HER! I DO VISIT HER BLOG TOO.
o yes… I HAVE TO agree that she needs to leave the weaves alone. cos this girl has a glorious afro under all that..
I must say her way of styling is true to her profile. It’s hard as a man to see a business professional who looks amazing every day and look fully confident in what she wears. You don’t have to wear over the top hills (you can’t walk in by 12:00) or short hot skirts (you can’t move in) to look on top of your game. Keep it up Shea you make every single guy in the world believe there are classy sophisticated and professional women out there.
. Keep setting your office on fire girl!!!!!
I like her style. Much like mine. Only thing I would like to see is a pop of color on her lips rather nude or pink. She still looks amazing though.
Curvy with Confidence Indeed! She rocked it!
Frugal Flirty N Fab!
FIERCE!
I agree a little lipstick would really seal her look !!!
and I agree with the above the lip ring… not professional … it actually is bad taste to me… otherwise I like her look .. it’s just hard to say it’s classy with that lip/mouth ring…
Woot Woot! Go Shea :)

Love her blog and style! Definite Fashion Bombshell!!!!
True beauty, love your style I just viewed your blog and fell in love with your style. You seem to be on your way to someone’s magazine cover. Well-polished and absolutely amazing curves……loving it!
Splendid style is give me “college-graduate-stylish-working-girl”
Good hair!
Nice style. Mostly just seems like straight from the rack with no prep though.
I like some of her looks … she needs to add some make-up to her staples though…
I like her look.That vintage style dress at the end sealed it for me!
Love how vintage done modern looks..
I checked out her blog (which is now a favorite) I can’t believe the places she shop. Her style is affordable and refreshing… love it!!!!
Love it all!
Shea did that! As a professional myself, I typically don’t see outfits I can find at BR to spice up with accessories and go. I really appreciated her opening up to this site – critics go in! I also enjoy those comments from posters. Some good, bad and others plain silly. I will be following her site – she got a new fan.
Love her style! Bombshell indeed! :-)
She is PRETTY FLY. I rarely like the clothing choices but she did that. Real clothes for real working women! KUDOS :)
very nice… i liked it!
Hey now dear! Love your style, but you already know this!!! LOL
Go Shea! Always polished. Not everybody wants to look like they threw the whole kitchen sink into their outfit!
A true Bombshell!!! Already follow her blog, she’s always polished. I love how she styles her looks, minimal fuss, well put together, and a inspiration to women.
Do it vbff!
Love Shea’s style!
Love it, def a FASHION bomshell.
Definitely classy!!
Looing good, Shea! Classy, chic, and sophisticated. Love your style and congrats on being featured!! :)

I read her blog, this is my girl! I always love how she dresses! Glad to see her featured!
I love Shea’s style! She always looks fun and polished! I also like the way she incorporates the current trends into work wear!
She is definitly a bombshell! I love her style… she DID that!!!!!!!!
I love her blog, she gives good pointers and points you to great sales! I wish she would wear a tad bit of makeup or at least some lip gloss….
She looks nice, but the outfits are kinda boring. I like the pink and red outfit, but aside from that it’s all basic stuff. I have that fringe bag and i love it so much! I get compliments on it all the time.
All of her outfits are lovely and well put together! However I’m not seeing anything original or out of the ordinary.
For the first time on this site the word curvy is being used appropriately. Yes Hon you have curves for days and toned up as well and every outfit screams im black, educated, sophisticated and classy. I wouldn’t change a thing about your fashion very corporate chic. Ladies take note, a guy here@liv said shea makes him believe that there are classy black women out there. I am also happy to see this side of black women, more power to Shea. I would be proud to have a friend like you.
Umm, that black dress is from Forever 21. What a find! It looks great!
I’ll definitely check out your blog. It’s always helpful to see clothes I would wear the other 5 days of the week.
Love that her style is so polished and chic. I’ve never seen a chic look so good in a skirt! Werk Shae!!!

Bombshell indeed! Go Shea!!! Love her style & blog!
I love her style. Classic and feminine. Nice.
*****She looks good in a few articles of clothing but her vision gets lost when she wears any outfit that requires a top AND bottom*****
Very sophisticated and well put together. Love the beach back drop.
She looks cute for a business PROFESSIONAL…She’s dressed the way NORMAL people dress to go to work. She’s showing off her PERSONAL style instead of dressing in over the top outfits that only look good on camera. Reading these comments I have to wonder if some of you are unemployed, and don’t realize people with REAL JOB’s are not dressed to the nines in quirky getups,(seen ONLY on blogs)everyday.
I love Shea’s style, She exudes confidence and her choices of clothes for her body type is amazing. We’re shaped the same and I follow her blog for inspiration
She looks nice and all, but ive seen these outfits a million times. The red with the pink. Black and white striped skirt etc. Were not all that boring in Miami, I promise!
i absolutely love the work outfits you have on! as a business woman this is exactly what I try to look like at networking events/ meetings. thanks for the inspiration and ideas. very classy & chic
What an awesome surprise…I loveShae’s blog-she looks amazing, everyday. Every outfit is perfectly executed, per usual. Go Shae.
I’ve been following Shea for at least 6 months or so. I love her style! I think her description is perfect – classic w/a trendy mix. We should all remember that style is personal. If she followed the advice of others, I guess it would no longer be her personal style. I like seeing her bare faced. She’s a beautiful girl and doesn’t need the makeup to make her outfit pop. Love her! Keep bringing it Ms. Shea! :)
LOL@SPS”finally someone who looks employed” love the mint pleated dress. like how shes not trying so hard
One of my favorites! She is always on point from head to toe!
LOVE IT! I follow the blog and its for the everyday person who doesn’t live in a fantasy land and plays dress up to impress ppl. Your outfits are always on point!
OMG!! I love her!!!! Very cute && Classy && simple! Def. a BOMBSHELL
I really love her style for business casual. It is professional but not business professional!
