How to assign attributes to child element?

How do I specifically assign a style to a child (the top black header from the image)

I've tried something like

and

.noo-topbar .container a

but nothing's changed...

Answer 1

Read about css combinators:

if you still have trouble i'd suggest applying an id to it, like #specialElement, and styling it directly.

Answer 2

try this

.noo-topbar .container > ul li a
