Three shows down and only two to go-- I had a blast during day one of A Robeson County Christmas Show! We hope to see everyone tonight at the Carolina Civic Center at 7pm! 🎄 (at Carolina Civic Center Historic Theater)

A special thank you goes out to Jewels Formals for this truly dazzling sapphire blue #Jovani evening gown for my opening act in A Robeson County Christmas Show! ❄️ (at Carolina Civic Center Historic Theater)

Absolutely obsessed with @ajdayphoto! Why I waited so long to shoot with this talented human being is simply beyond me! I can't say thank you enough for what I can only describe as pure #perfection. Until next time 👯 #constantslayage (at Atlanta, Georgia)

One word: fabulous. This woman is such an inspiration and I'll always cherish our time together. 👑 #walkwithlu #boundforthecrown (at Washington, District of Columbia)

I'm anxiously awaiting the finished photos to arrive.... But, until then, these #bts candids serve as a #beautiful reminder that we are not paintings or pictures of #perfection. The entire experience of shooting with @_jonathancarter and @_eastcoastgirl is a memory surrounded by this glimmering mirage-- but only because I chose to see it that way. We are not brushstrokes or filters— we are so much more. 💋 #glamorous #flawless #perpetualslayage #carterstudios (at Carter Studios Inc.)

Has it really been 10 years since this #beautiful little girl captured my #heart and quickly became my sweet little #sister? From riding in parades to frequenting Chick-fil-a for our favorite milkshakes and random excursions on Carolina Beach-- I remember each and every #memory as if was just yesterday. I'll always be so #grateful for the immeasurable bond that a contestant, miss or teen, can have with her #CarolinaPrincess. I #love you forever and always, Jordan Capps! 💕 #MissFayettevilleOT #abondthatwilllastalifetime #somuchlove

One of my favorite things about the #MissNC Organization is how it can bring two strangers together to create a #special bond, a unique #friendship, and a distinct #sisterhood that is irreplaceable. So, I was beyond #excited to see this precious gem, last night, at the Teen and Miss Lumbee pageant. I love you forever and always, #MissFayetteville 😘

And it's a wrap! I had the #best time serving by your side tonight, Brent! Until next time 😊 #typical

The #stage is set and the contestants are ready! I'm beyond #excited to share the stage, tonight, with #X-Factor finalist, Brent Tyler, as we #emcee the Teen and Miss Lumbee #pageant! A heartfelt thank you goes out to All Occasions and Bridal for always dressing me in nothing less than the absolute #best! I couldn't have imagined a more #fabulous #gown for tonight's pageant. You guys rock! #lumbeehomecoming

To this day, I'm still asked "Do you actually make friends with your competitors in pageants?", and I always respond with a resounding "Yes!" because of friendships like the ones I've built with these two incredible women. I'll forever cherish the moments that bring us together despite our busy schedules. I love you, ladies! Xoxo 💕#MissNC #friendship (at Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts)

I'm reminded on a daily basis of the intelligence, resilience and talent of my #MissNC big sisters. So, I couldn't have been more honored to reunite with so many strong, passionate, and motivated women, all of whom I can call "sister." I will forever be #grateful to be a part of such a rich legacy of female empowerment. 👑 #foreverMissNC #MissNC2010 #MissNC2011 #MissNC2012 #MissNC2013 (at 18 Seaboard)

Congratulations to the new #MissNC, Kate Peacock! I can hardly wait to witness your life changing journey. Welcome to the sisterhood! 👑 #theresheis #MissNC2015 #MAO (at Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts)

#tbt to night two of #MissNC 2013 preliminary competition where I was blessed beyond belief to win the lifestyle and #fitness award! 👑💪🏼
