Oh My God. I love being a girl and I really love being a black girl. I also am obsessed looking at African and African American Influencers creating astounding content. From black female travel bloggers, to black business bloggers, black bloggers are killin’ it and what better way to view their content in one place than on Instagram.

Melanin against brilliant pops of color or even in stark contrast to a brilliant white backdrop. I cannot get enough. You must know, however, while these women are uber glamorous and their blogging has taken them to magnificent locations and afforded them immensely and swoon-worthy opportunities, these women are working their behinds off in order to bring us incredible content that we can devour. They’ve designed their best lives and are striving for even more. They are truly inspiring.

These Black Bloggers Give You Life On Instagram

@ijeomakola

I love her brown skin and how it pops in her photos. Ijeoma’s style and photos are beautiful, but what I love most about her is her giving spirit. Ijeoma openly shares secrets to help you create amazing photos in her story highlights. She’s helped me a lot when it comes to figuring VSCO and Snapseed methods for creating cohesive and gorgeous photos.

Of course I had to add myself, because why not. If you haven’t followed me on Instagram, I’d love to see you there. I’m a mommy blogger, teacher, and CEO of my my own business at Luxor Ridge Social Media Agency.

@colormecourtney

If you have not experienced the incredibleness that is @colormecourtney, run don’t walk and follow her. She is the essence of branding done right. I had the honor of watching her speak at Blogger18 and I was blown away by her confidence. She is the it girl that brands go to for color point blank and the period. Her feed is so fab, goddesses. Seriously. Even my mom, who knows nothing about blogging or instagram knew who Courtney was from a commercial. Incredible. Check out her quote for bloggers here.

There are so many incredible African and African American influencers out there. I could not possibly name them all, but know ladies you are giving us black girls aspirations. You’re showing the world what Black Girl Magic is and you’re killing it in business. Thank you, Goddesses. We love you.
