Now for a girl who has spent the last couple of years complaining about summer – I’m feeling optimistic and down with this summer vibe.

No, I’m serious! I’m actually not a summer Grinch for once and glad its summertime. Of course, I say this now, and with it only being early June, my feeling could change, and I could very well end up being a summer Grinch.

So while I’m in an optimistic, happy mood with summer, I, of course, want to make the most of it. I want to enjoy the long light evening, take the time to catch say ray and generally go out and enjoy myself.

Here are 5 ways how I’m planning on making the most of the summer. I would love to know how you are planning on making the most of summer in the comment down below. Are you going away – if so where to and can I come? If not going anywhere, where would you like to go if given a choice and money no object?

Anyway, enough rambling, let get on with the list:

Outdoor swimming:

With the weather being lovely and being the right temperature for the Goldilocks I am, I have been swimming outdoor. Oh my god, it has been glorious. I just love swimming outdoor with the warmth of the sun on your skin and how refreshing the water can be as you are splashing around. So throughout the summer months, I want to make the most of it and to enjoy swimming outdoors.

Go to a spa:

Anyone who knows me will know this isn’t a surprise. I actually got a spa holiday booked in the Autumn which I’m very excited about. But before that, of course, I’m talking about going to a spa during the summer months. I got my eyes on a few spas around London that I want to visit. In my opinion There no better feeling than going to a spa.

Go to a sandy beach:

This something Richard and I want to do. Beaches are made for the summer months-  they really are. We want to lie on a sandy beach and hear the wave crashing and the seagulls squawking away. Where we would have ice cream and walk along a pier. Pure bliss.

Spend my evening outside rather than inside:

As I said earlier, I want to enjoy the long light evening and just spend that time outside. I might just go to a pub and sit outside or go to an open air cinema. I might also go on a long walk or perhaps be really boring and just sit in a park eating an ice-cream. I have this feeling where I don’t want to be coop up.

Enjoy my summer clothes:

This isn’t me actually doing anything, but I did a big splurge recently at H&M (spent more money then I care to admit!) and got lots of lovely new summer clothes. So yes, this summer I want to enjoy summer fashion and my new clothes. Summer clothes are just so much more fun to wear; don’t you agree?

That way my list, now I want to hear from you. Tell me all about your summer plans and how you are making the most of these sunny months.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post. Stay tuned for more updates!
