It’s that time again! We’re showing love to Atlanta in honor of the upcoming Cocktails with Claire x Miss Diddy LA Atlanta. Check out today’s Beauty Bombshell of the Day, Britt from Hot-lanta:
Britt writes, “Hi my name is Britt Bradley (@brittbradley) and I’m a model. Modeling has been my dream since I was little girl. I’ve always wanted to be a doll and modeling gives me that opportunity to be dressed up and created into different characters. It’s a joy to help someone’s vision come to life.”
“I’m originally from a small town (Clarksdale) in Mississippi and I’m the youngest of 7. It has been a struggle to get this far and I’m thankful for the opportunities I’ve received while pursuing my dream of being a Supermodel.”
“I would describe my style as mysterious and edgy. I love to wear dark colors. Boots and jeans kinda gal!“
“My dream is to create a platform to help others, especially young girls and boys from the neighborhood I grew up in, to learn about different avenues of success as well as build their self esteem. Back home, as well as in Atlanta, people ask me how I get started and how to stay motivated and it’s not easy but you have to keep believing in yourself and never give up on you! I’ve gotten to go to a lot of places such as London, Paris, Istanbul, Dubai, Jamaica, New York, as well as Los Angeles through the support of others and especially my Mississippi family. I would like the opportunity to be your Atlanta bombshell because Atlanta, GA is where I received my start working with the best of the best in Atlanta!”
Absolutely STUNNING.

Much like last week, Cocktails with Claire will be making another stop but, this time, we’re headed to Georgia for some good ‘ol southern hospitality. My colleagues and I are super excited about this upcoming networking event and it’s sure to be one for the books!
In celebration of our stop in A-Town, we thought it would be amazing to showcase some of our favorite bloggers.
I first discovered this phenomenal duo back when I started my internship as a writer here on Fashion Bomb. I accurately remember coming across their Instagram and just being swept away by their impeccable sartorial presence as well as their ability to blend neutral hues so effortlessly.
But, Kay Lynn and Cari Rene have continued to evolve since then. Now, the sisters are known all over Atlanta for their distinguished lifestyle brand LAYLLAH. With a social media platform of over 64,000 followers, these #GirlBosses are surely a pair to look out for in the future. They’re doing big things! See more on their official site here.
Talking with Tami is the product of red carpet correspondent and on-air personality Tami Reed who has worked with various brands including Oxygen TV, Verizon, Vibe Vixen, Disney, Ambi… and the list goes on and on! This Bomb Blogger’s bubbly demeanor has garnered her a massive amount of support and her online phenom is a one-stop shop for lifestyle posts, celebrity discussions and (of course) fashion.
And, Tami’s style is nothing short of extraordinary. The dazzling diva loves to incorporate tons of color, dramatic silhouettes and she always injects a bit of ladylike aesthetic into every single one of her ‘fits. Basically, everything she does turns to gold! Want to see more from Tami? Well, check out her blog now!
There’s always been an issue regarding the representation of curvy women within the fashion industry. We’ve seen endless panels address the situation and we’ve also watched as plus size innovators have taken the forefront while assisting in providing shapely women with inspiring approaches to style. But, Marie Denee of The Curvy Fashionista is focused solely only catering to our voluptuous bombshells.
Marie’s blog is chock full of the hottest events, introductions to up-and-coming plus size designers, budget-friendly shopping tips and travel adventures. I was absolutely floored by the intricacy of her content coupled with her down-to-earth personality that shines through widely throughout her posts. Yes, honey! Keep slaying!
First off, Mattie James is #goals. She’s one of the sweetest spirits I’ve ever come across. And, although we have yet to meet in real life, we’ve had run-ins with each other via Instagram. This former Miss Liberia USA 2010 has taken the blogosphere by storm with her bold and eccentric style while also including little nuggets of her life in the process. She’s a wonderful wife, a loving mother and she’s a firm believer in “living what you love“.
Mattie is also quite the beauty connoisseur! Her primary topics include natural hair revelations, makeup faves and even skin routine tips. It’s evident that this chick is the total package and she’s definitely reppin’ for the A. And, trust me, once you take a detour to her blog, you’ll keep going back for more!
Bev is another one of my favorite Atlanta bloggers! She’s the epitome of chic and her solid grasp of personal style has transitioned throughout the growth of her blog Life in Beverly Heels. According to her ‘About Me’, the fashionista writes, “I’ve been working in this industry for almost nearly a decade. I am the owner a luxury designer consignment store called Loved Labels. In addition to being obsessed with fashion I am also a bit of a nerd, I have a couple degrees but by the far the one I am most proud of is my law degree. By combining my two passions of fashion and law I’ve been able to do what I love, and when you do what you love you never feel like you’ve worked a day in your life.”
Wow! Talk about beauty and brains! In her own glamorous way, Beverly has captured the hearts of fashion enthusiasts everywhere and she is living proof that dreams can, indeed, become a sweet reality. If you’re a bombshell who enjoys daily outfit musings with an added dose of humor, then Beverly is your girl!
I’m a sucker for a woman who has fun with fashion. No matter what the trend nor the season, I always find myself intrigued by Monica’s use of color, her genius combinations and her fearless approach to styling. Awed by Monica is a destination for the bombshell whose only desire is to uplift their true personal style.
Monica’s style is unpredictable. And, while she tends to gravitate towards feminine pieces, every now and then she shocks the masses by adorning an unexpected necklace or a flamboyant pair of sunnies. Her use of accessories helps to amp up even the simplest of looks and she consistently manages to make all her ensembles feel new and fresh. That’s why she’s on our list of bloggers to follow! Go girl!
Jasmine Crockett is a PR and marketing powerhouse who enjoys shopping, spending time with her family and traveling. The Godiva goddess has also translated her love of communications into a wildly-popular lifestyle blog that documents frugal style finds, day-to-day outfits and frequent posts that gives readers insight as to how they can become full-time bloggers.
Another installment on Jasmine’s blog that caught my eye was a segment simply known as “His Perspective“. In contrast to “Her Perspective”, the feature highlights the personal style of her husband! From time to time, he hops in front of lens while providing a slew of inspirations for male readers. How dope is that?
Founder and creative director Crystal Daniels of Society of Harlow is a force to be reckoned with! The young girl boss has solidified a brand carefully tailored towards helping women master the art of slaying on a budget. She’s also the mastermind behind #TripleSlayFashion, a feature that shows fashionistas how to take one garment and style it three distinctive ways. Werk!
Immediately after visiting her blog, I fell in love with Crystal’s warm smile, her positive energy and the unparalleled confidence that oozed from each and every one of her pictures. She’s such a refreshing breath of air and there’s no doubt that this bombshell will go on to accomplish all of her heart’s desires. Check out her site now!
We’re moving on to another taste of #BlackGirlMagic featuring Titilola of TiTi’s Passion! Every now and then, I come across fashionistas who can rock the heck out of modern minimalist style. Minimalism is a no-fuss approach to fashion but, at times, it can be a little tricky to pull off. But, Titilola kills it oh-so-well while proving that fashion can still be classic yet sophisticated.
This Georgia peach is an absolute gem when it comes to piecing together wardrobe staples. Whether she’s rocking a pair of pom pom embellished boyfriend denim or twirling it up like Kenya Moore in a sizzling red flowy dress, Titilola is no stranger when it comes to serving it up full throttle. She came slay. Nothing more, nothing less. And, I’m here for every single moment!
Our final Bomb Blogger is a standout from the rest of our Atlanta fashionistas. Hadiza is not only a notable style maven but she’s also a fellow food enthusiast. (But, aren’t we all?!) As another blogger I follow via the ‘Gram, I’ve also witnessed her gorgeous evolution. She’s grown from a wide-eyed newcomer and solidified her own unique place within such a saturated industry.
In a brief bio on her blog, she gives her audience a quick preview as how she ventured into the blog world. She expresses, “When I finally became old enough to shop for myself, I knew what kind of clothes I liked and what worked for my body shape. I would play dress up for endless hours and basically to put two and two together till I was satisfied or could make it work. It’s the opposite with cooking… My mum did all the cooking and even with her aids, she still needed extra helping hands. It was a case of if you don’t help me, you’re not eating. From this, I became more inquisitive in the kitchen. From wanting to know how to make one thing or another, I became bigger and better.”
Whew! What’d you think of the list?
Are there any Bomb Bloggers that I missed out on? Well, let me know below!
Her LBD features a deep V neckline, asymmetrical shoulder straps, studded and perforated panels, ruffle detailing, D-ring eyelets and rings, and cutout accents.
It’s all things Atlanta this week as Cocktails With Claire x Miss Diddy LA makes ATL its next stop this weekend. So we thought it would only be fitting to pass the Beauty Crush Wednesday torch on to Atlanta native and rapper, Pressed boutique owner, and Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta star, Rasheeda Frost!
From her early days in the rap game sporting a minimal lip and a touch of color with eyeliner on her lower lids, Rasheeda now experiments with different eyeshadow hues to frame her dark brown eyes and bold lipstick tints. From bright reds to neon pinks, matte, glossy and everything in between, she knows exactly what shades work effortlessly with her complexion. This probably prompted her to start her own cosmetics line, Poiz Cosmetics with a range of lipsticks and glosses, even expanding to foundation.
Clearly one to change up her look when it comes to makeup, she definitely doesn’t neglect her hair. Whether in braids, kinky curls, or as straight as a line, nary a strand sits out of place. I mean, have you seen her LHHATL confessionals? So sleek and shiny!
But for Rasheeda, beauty isn’t only an exterior factor as she seems to be a smart business woman and a voice of reason to many who tune in to the show. It’s only fair to say that “Da Boss Chick” is worthy of the title. Take a look at the gallery above to peruse our favorite of Rasheeda’s beauty looks. What do you think? Is she worthy of this week’s pick?
