It’s Favorite ‘Fit time! Each week this month I’ll be featuring a fabulous brown girl blogger in her favorite outfit.

This week, I’ve sketched Renae Bluitt of Crush Media PR and In Her Shoes Blog. Here, she tells us the story behind this oh-so-fabulous dress:

“My favorite outfit is…
My Suakoko Betty dress & a pair of sky high (but comfy!) heels.

I love it because…
The dress is flirty, fun and designed by a talented independent designer.

My favorite place to wear it is….
Anywhere that allows me to indulge in great food, even greater conversations, cocktails & friends!”

Check out Renae’s glam blog, In Her Shoes. It follows fly, female entrepreneurs (and — wink wink — my Fabulous Brown Girls card were featured in her “Currently Crushing” section last holiday season). You can also follow In Her Shoes on Twitter and Instagram.

Starting this week, I’m featuring a few of my favorite brown-girl beauty, fashion and lifestyle mavens in a series called “My Favorite ‘Fit.” How it works — I asked each chica to share a photo of her favorite outfit and some words about why it makes her feel amazing. Then I illustrate her favorite look and share her answers here. Enjoy!

I’ve been following Tia Williams’ work as a beauty writer, editor and blogger for almost as long as I can remember now! Her blog, Shake Your Beauty, was daily lunch-break reading when I was still working in news. Here, Tia talks about the outfit that makes her feel like a rockstar.

“My favorite outfit is
my printed bodycon skirt and green mockneck crop top, with orange pumps.

I love it because
somehow, magically, it gives me the faintest hint of curvaceousness. If you squint. 

My favorite place to wear it is
anywhere after 9pm.”

Make sure to go binge-read Shake Your Beauty. (My favorite post? The one where she shares bikini-line trimming tips she learned from strippers. Such vital information.) And you can also find Tia on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
