Guest Post: Carla

Meet Carla - a 24 year old writer living in Brooklyn, New York who also doubles as a nanny and a perpetual editorial intern. Her other interests include reading, live shows, and most importantly - big ole impractical earrings. I think we can all relate to a few (or many) impractical material goods in our lives. I'm also excited to share that Carla will be joining us a regular contributor here on Within Color so be sure to lookout for her future posts!

Look at these intricate details! I'm also really lovin' the headscarf. 

How would you describe your style?

Colorful, daring, and comfortable.

What does your beauty regime consist of?

I use African black soap and shea butter moisturizer on my face at night. During the week, I don't wear any make-up, but on the weekends when I'm going out I'll put on a bit of mascara and a lipstick. Revlon is my favorite brand!

Is there a celebrity/public figure whose personal style you closely align with?

British singer Corinne Bailey Rae and French singer, Inna Modja, are GORGEOUS black women whose looks are always on point and I get a lot of inspiration from them.
