Where in the css do I change the black top of the Wordpress/Bootstrap pages to white or other color?

I like the Bootstrap theme for Wordpress but the Black page top doesn't match the styling I want to have for the website. I tried the TWBS color navbar but it doesn't touch the black top. Thanks for any direction.

Hey

Have you tried targeting the element with some CSS? If you open Chrome dev tools you should be able to pin point which element you need to target. If the site is live I could take a look for you.

Best wishes, Mike

I thought I had already exhausted that route, but when I went back to look at the css with the chrome deelopment tools and then back to my header.php file, I found that I wasn't using the navbar-deafult but the navbar-inverse. Thanks, your answer helped me solve the problem.
