Last week I tackled sweaters and other fall wardrobe essentials but this week, I'm thinking more about shoes. I have never been a shoe gal. Shoes are my least favorite thing to buy and if it was socially acceptable, comfortable, and hygienic, I'd probably live my life barefoot. That doesn't seem to smart w…

This is a sponsored post but all thoughts/comments/opinions are my own. I think we'll make this a new series on Royally Pink... I love talking about beauty, and there is always a new product or brand or store I want to talk about. I need to get more organized in how I discuss things on here so I think "Beauty…

I love the start of the seasons for many reasons, one of them being new nail polish collections. I was really excited about Essie's Fall 2015 collection, until I saw it. None of the colors excited me as past collections and I figured I wouldn't buy any polishes from the collection, opting for some older, class…

I'm writing this as I'm sipping on a glass of Moscato, my Yankee Candle Vanilla Bourbon candle lit, and watching ABC's #TGIT. Yes, finally my fall favorite tv shows are back -- Grey's (which I haven't watched in years but figure why not), Scandal, and How to Get Away With Murder. Thursdays are my n…

I've been thinking a lot about Birchbox and maybe I don't need these monthly boxes filled with beauty products. I have enough products to last 3 lifetimes. It's beginning to get a tad bit overwhelming and I think about canceling my subscription more than once a month. But then, I watch the Sample Choice vi…

So I think the title of this blog post is a little misleading. I'm talking about my favorites for fall fashion but it's mostly sweaters. Sweaters are my favorite item of clothing, especially during the fall. I think they are the most versatile piece of clothing you can keep in your closet. You can dress them u…

I find myself browsing Sephora's website for new items pretty much at least once a day. On one of these benders, I found the latest Sephora Favorites collection -- a brow wardrobe . Sephora is always coming out with these exclusive kits that feature deluxe & full size samples of products. They have one for eye…

Let's get the elephant out of the room, shall we? I have a new look on the blog, AGAIN! My banner was messed up for about a week and a half, and I was getting bored with my design and felt like Royally Pink needed a face lift. This is a temporary design purchased from The Blog Shop on Etsy. She has pre-made blog …

Does anyone else think this week was unusually long? Every day felt like Thursday but in fact, they were not. I don't remember the last time I had a week this long. It was long, but good! I had a fabulous week, filled with lots of fun things. If you missed it, I went to a NYFW event and paid a visit to the Birchb…

Another "event" type post in one week? I am on a roll! Going out after work isn't SO bad after all ;) Birchbox is honestly one of the best companies out there, in my opinion. They do everything right -- they're on their social media game, have an amazing website/shop, and they care so much about the…

Here we are again, trying out a new writing format. I have been reading/listening to too many books to do separate posts about them, and sometimes I find myself rambling in book review posts just to fill up space or get my point across. I think rounding up the books in one short paragraph is much better than dedicated…

Whenever I see bloggers attending fun events and doing fabulous things, I get mildly jealous. Why can't I be oh so fabulous like that? I get especially envious during Fashion Week. Living and working right in the heart of NYC, I'm constantly surrounded by Fashion Week. A few of my friends who work in magazines…
