Today is my birthday so Happy Birthday to me! I'm 26 years old, closer to 30 than I am to 20 and that is a scary, horrible thought. My twenties have not been what I expected but 25 was better than most years! During the past 365 days, I feel like I accomplished a lot while finding myself and finding more happiness…

I had a Weight Watchers Wednesday scheduled for today but truthfully, it's just the same stuff every month. My weight fluctuates every 3 weeks, I'm still stuck at this stupid plateau and even gained two pounds last week. I'm trying but failing and I almost don't want to discuss it because I'm so di…

Another week is over, the first full week of December and we're one day closer to Christmas. Since I hit my twenties, I feel like Christmas has never felt like Christmas but I make the most out of it every year. I thought this year would feel different because I was REALLY looking forward to it, but I am feeling t…

Today I turn 25 years old. That seems like an unreal age for me. I felt this way when I turned 13 years old, 16 years old, 18, 20, and 21. The past few birthdays have been uneventful but yet, here we are at another milestone. For my last milestone birthday, I was in my senior year of college, ready to drink my face of…

Today is my last day of being 24 years old. I'm leaving my early twenties tomorrow and heading straight through into my mid-twenties.  I almost don't even want to admit how scared I really am because it sounds silly, but I've been in the middle of a quarter-life crisis since I was 20 years old and now that…

It was a great week. A really fabulous, awesome week! I turned 23 years old on Monday and it was honestly one of the best birthdays in a while. It felt like my birthday for once, and my sister baked me cupcakes and I got the most adorable Kate Spade bag as a present from my mom. The weekend was fun too -- I had a bir…

Today I turn 23 years old and I can't believe we've come this far. I don't feel 23. I feel like I'm still 16. I don't feel like I can be considered an adult because I don't understand things like taxes or know how to control myself in aspects of shopping. I still live at home and share a room w…

How is it mid November? How is Thanksgiving next week? How is my birthday in less than 2 weeks? Time is flying by and I don't like it one bit. This is however, my favorite time of the year. Fall into winter, the holidays, all the good food and the chill air. The Christmas movies, wrapping paper, winter scented can…

With all the holiday sets at Ulta and Sephora, I have been online window shopping like no one's business. There are so many gorgeous value sets out there, I needed to get my hands on at least one of them. My birthday was on Sunday (#feeling22) but I celebrated with my family on Thanksgiving. I'm 22 years old n…

Today is Royally Pink's one year anniversary! I created this blog one year ago today after spending a few weeks at home after finishing my sophomore year of college. I was miserable and desperately wanting to go back to school. I discovered one blog in-particular that inspired me to spend my summer writing-- Colle…

Today is my 20th birthday. I am 20 years old. The thought is rather sickening if I'm being honest. I love my birthday so much; I'm one of those people who relish in the attention on the day of their birth but would rather hide behind the curtains the other 364 days a year. This birthday I was dreading all week…

Today is the queen of pink and green's birthday! It's been marked in my planner and I have been counting down the days...Happy birthday Lilly Pulitzer! I think Lilly is so special and I wish I could spend every last cent I have on something Lilly but unfortunately I cannot so here are some of the new Lilly stu…
