I am sure you are all blissfully aware by now that after
what seems like forever spring has finally began to emerge! Soon to be gone of
the dull short days as we stride onwards and upwards into the new season. I like
to see a new month as a fresh start, leave anything negative behind, embrace
the sunshine, laugh a little more and see the world in it’s new sunny light!
After Winter, Spring is really a bit of a ‘mid year marking point’ where we sit
back and think about those new year resolutions we made all of what, 3 months
ago. Have we really been sticking to that ‘not so set in stone’ diet? And are
we still as motivated with the whole gym situation as we were a week after our
Christmas dinner. All of this brings me on to think about my spring to do list.
Clothes
Ok so First things first has to be clothes right? It is time
to fold away the chunky knits and embrace the florals. Last years ‘spring wear’
not looking quite so cute as before? well there you have it! An opportunity for
a shopping spree. (You can thank me later!) But out of all seriousness fresh
clothes can set you up for the weeks ahead, a killer outfit brings killer
confidence to smash those new season plans, whether its getting a job, going to
university or having a first date with that cutie you met on tinder. Good
clothes will always have your back. Recently I have been loving anything embroidered,
skirts, leather and denim. It’s all gorgeous, speaking of denim I can’t get enough
of the whole distressed denim vibe along with the gingham print, wide sleeves
and not to mention anything with circle details.
Food
It’s the deal breaker right? We all love a good treat now or
then but I like to mix up my diet in the warmer temperatures. Start looking
into lighter foods like salads and raps. Get out of the hibernation eating habits;
we don’t need to be bulking up for the cold weather anymore. Think about the
new rotation of crops. What can we find more of when it comes to the groceries?
Think berries, peaches and apricots. As lovely as they are alone mix things up
try out some new smoothies you never know what you might find yourself loving
this season.
State of mind
A positive state of mind is something I want to work really
hard at this season. I’m not sure about you but I find the weather can have a
huge impact on my mood, as much as I like the cosiness of winter, the spring
time certainly works wonders for me, if the sun is shining I just feel so much
more positive and ready to concur the day ahead. Like I said before see the new
month as a fresh start, a new opportunity to make a better you. Say yes more
and don’t get caught up on the little things life likes to throw at us.
I have added this to my list as I find it very easy to get
stuck in a rut of day-to-day life; sometimes it is easy to forget about having
some down time. This does not have to mean sitting at home watching Netflix.
Take the plunge, and get out and about, embrace the new month and grab any
opportunity coming your way with both hands. I recently started a yoga class
and it has been a great way of keeping active as well as zoning out for a while
and working towards a goal outside of studying and work. Setting goals brings
along positivity and drive which you can never have too much of.
Holiday
Last but not least book yourself H O l I D A Y put your feet
up and sit back whilst you enjoy a well earned break whether it’s a shorty city
break, a spa weekend or a week away with friends and family book it and enjoy
it!
