Color me Confident by Lindsey Blackwelder sent me a very informative color analysis, and I honestly had no idea what to expect! I found out that I am Warm & Medium, which means I look best in colors that are warm, earthy, and a little softer instead of super bright or super dark colors. My color season is True Autumn, which actually makes so much sense now that I see all of my colors together! I was SO surprised by some of the colors that looked best on me. Things like rust, terracotta, warm greens, teal, coral, mustard, and warm browns are all really good colors for me. I also learned that really harsh colors like pure black and bright white aren’t my best unless I have a good tan from Briley or the sun, and I should go for softer neutrals like navy, ivory, camel, and chocolate brown instead when I don’t have as much of a tan.
The whole process was honestly so interesting and I can’t wait to share more soon! I’m excited to start adding some of these colors into my nationals wardrobe and see how much of a difference they actually make. Stay tuned because I’ll be sharing my color palette and some of my favorite colors!

One month ago, I was crowned Miss Louisiana Teen Volunteer!
It’s hard to believe that an entire month has already passed since one of the most unforgettable moments of my life. Being crowned Miss Louisiana Teen Volunteer is so much more than a title, it’s an opportunity to serve, inspire, grow, and make a difference in my community and state. I’m so incredibly grateful for everyone who has supported me throughout this journey. To my family, friends, mentors, and everyone who believed in me, thank you for helping me get to this moment and achieve my dreams! I wouldn’t be here without you all! This past month has already been filled with so many exciting memories, and I know this is only the beginning. I’m beyond honored to represent Louisiana and can’t wait to see where this year takes me. Here’s to a year of service, purpose, growth, and making a difference. I can’t wait to represent Louisiana at Miss America Teen Volunteer in March!💗

The last Bites & Beats at Miller Quarters Park for 2026 is next Thursday, Sept 10th, featuring live music from Beaux Atkins! Celeste Lay, Miss Louisiana Volunteer and I will be there for a fun activity fundraiser for St. Jude. Come join us for this fun event! 💗
