It's all in the details and since today was the last day of classes for my spring semester of my post-bacc, I wanted to dress up for the occasion lol! Plus it was the best weather we've had all week, so it was the perfect day to wear my lace mock- neck top I got from Charlotte Russe last summer. It has literally been sitting in my closet for 8 months and I finally pulled the tag off this morning!

If you didn't already know, I am a born and born North Carolina Tar Heel and today  my Alma Mater is heading to the NCAA National Championship and I couldn't be more excited, although I am a little envious that it happened the year after a graduated so I won't be able to join in all the excitement on Franklin St., but I can show my Carolina pride from afar. It also turns out that light/baby blue happens to be one of Pantone's color of Year for 2016, what Pantone calls Serenity, I call good ole' Carolina Blue baby! But either way, I get an excuse to wear the perfect pastel blue all spring!

***edit*** So my team didn't bring home to National Championship but I couldn't be prouder to wear Carolina Blue. UNC Basketball had a great season and no matter the outcome, played an amazing game.













We'll get 'em next time, but either way... I'm a Tar Heel born and I'm a Tar Heel bred and when I die... I'm a Tar Heel dead!

Now that spring has arrived, I feel it's time for me to put away my dark berry and brown lipsticks for something lighter and fresher. As a brown girl, sometimes I have a little difficulty finding nude lipsticks that work for my skin-tone and that ... well actually look nude. After years of trial and error, and many, many lipstick tubes, I finally found some shades that work for me. I also found the trick to blending and making nude shades look natural is a brown lip pencil.
