5 Things I Love About Summer


Summer officially rolled around on June 20th, and I'm already feeling the change of seasons with the warmer weather we've been having for the last week or so. This season is sometimes one of my favourites when the sun isn't trying to take me down (otherwise I'm a Spring girl!), so I wanted to share what I love about Summer time.


Family time - I get to spend more time with my family! BBQ's outside are a favourite around this time of year. We have more days out at the end of summertime, so we can avoid the mass groups of families with children on school holidays!

The weather - The weather is so much warmer and it just feels like the air is lighter. I get to wear dresses and shorts a lot more, and go out more without worrying about freezing to death!

People's moods - Everyone just seems happier. Granted, summer seems to get people drinking a lot more so those moods are not for me - I'm not a drinker! - but everyone just seems to be a little nicer to one another.

Lighter days - Longer days make it feel like I can tackle anything. I wake up to daylight and to to bed not long after the last rays of the sun have vanished.

The food - Is it just me or are all snacks and foods nicer this time of year? Fruit is nicer, vegetables seem better, and ICE CREAM IS EVERYWHERE! 


What are your favourite things about summertime? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

5 Essential Budgeting Tips and Tricks for Financial Success


Managing your finances effectively is a crucial skill that can help you achieve your financial goals and build a secure future. Whether you're saving for a rainy day, planning for retirement, or working towards a big purchase, having a solid budgeting strategy in place is key. Here are five simple budgeting tips and tricks to help you take control of your finances and set yourself up for financial success.

Track Your Spending
The first step towards effective budgeting is understanding where your money is going. Start by tracking your spending, whether it's through a budgeting app, spreadsheet, or good old-fashioned pen and paper. Make a note of every pound you spend, from your morning coffee to your monthly bills. This will give you a clear picture of your spending habits and help you identify areas where you can cut back.

Create a Budget
Once you've tracked your spending, it's time to create a budget. Start by listing all your sources of income, including your salary, freelance earnings, and any other sources of income. Then, list all your expenses, from rent and utilities to groceries and transportation. Allocate a specific amount of money to each expense category, making sure to set aside a portion for savings and discretionary spending. Be realistic and flexible with your budget, and don't forget to account for any irregular expenses or unexpected costs.

Limit Impulse Purchases
Impulse purchases can quickly derail even the best-laid budgeting plans. To avoid overspending, implement a "cooling-off" period before making any non-essential purchases. If you find yourself tempted to buy something on a whim, give yourself 24 hours to reconsider. Chances are, you'll realise you don't really need it and can put the money towards more important financial goals.

Automate Your Savings
Saving money can be challenging, especially when you have competing financial priorities. One way to make it easier is to automate your savings. Set up automatic transfers from your main income account to your savings account each month. This way, you'll be less tempted to spend the money if it's already earmarked for savings. Aim to save at least 10-20% of your income each month, even if it's just a small amount to start with. Over time, those savings will add up.

Review and Adjust Regularly
Finally, make it a habit to review your budget and financial goals regularly, ideally on a monthly basis. Take stock of your progress, identify any areas where you're overspending, and adjust your budget as needed. Be flexible and willing to make changes as your financial situation evolves. By staying proactive and making adjustments as needed, you'll be better equipped to stay on track and achieve your financial goals.


Budgeting is a powerful tool that can help you take control of your finances and build a secure future. By implementing these five budgeting tips and tricks, you'll be well on your way to financial success. Remember, budgeting is a journey, so be patient with yourself and celebrate your progress along the way. With a solid budgeting strategy in place, you can achieve your financial goals and build the life you've always dreamed of.
