We’re relaunching our Ask Claire section with a query from Joslyn, who asked, “As a blogger who is still working a 9-5, I see why many bloggers have extra writers. It’s a lot to do on your own. My blog is growing and I need help keeping the content rolling in. Now that Fashion Bomb Daily is a well-oiled machine with a staff, my question is how did you prepare to bring in the extra help? For example, were there…
The Bomb Life 101: Set Specific Goals and Write Them Down
Now that I’m not relying on the ‘I Wore This’ outfit posts, I’ve been racking my brain about what to say! Even though I dispense lots of advice via The Bomb Life 101, let me state that I am by no means a life coach or an expert. I’ve never met a self help book I didn’t like, and most of what I’m offering to you is my interpretation of great advice culled from lots of reading and research. Long…
The Bomb Life 101: Practice Patience (Good Things Come to Those Who Wait) in a BCBG Fringed Jacket, Givenchy Bambi T-Shirt, and Zara Jeans
So this week ended with even more good news: I’m an ambassador for Dark and Lovely’s new #LovemyColor Campaign! I should do a praise dance to setting goals.

Monday was Real Style. Tuesday was Fashion News. Wednesday was Beauty. Thursday was Wild Card. Friday was Mail Bombs. Now, things go at such a fast pace, you never know what you’ll see on the site! The same goes for any…
Style Diary: A White Kyna Collection Crop Top, High Waisted Pants, and a Theory Blazer
So many outfits, so little time! The other day, I filmed a few vignettes as part of my ambassadorship with Colgate Optic White in a white look by Kyna Collection: I can confidently say that white is a great color for brown skinned folks. Now you know why we love a white party! Kyna Collection is a fabulous brand we’re actually partnering with on a future collection and collaboration. There is so much brewing behind the scenes, I can’t wait…
Welcome to the New Bomb Life! Wearing a Zara Red Top, Isabel Marant Skirt, and Aquazzura The Queen Sandals
So the Bomb Life has a new design! Yes, yes, y’all. I collaborated with bomb designer Denisse aka @ThugNanny_ on something slick and sophisticated, that equally displays both style and prose. I’m not your typical style blogger. And while I’ve had fun showing off my lewks from various events, y’all know I’m a writer at heart, and have found it more fulfilling to offer advice, reflect on life, and chronicle my career. While the older design was all about photos,…
