After revelling in the reasons to love both November and the season of spring, it felt only appropriate to spread the joy for the season of summer too. It is the most commonly loved time of the year after all...

- Let's start with an obvious one—the sun! Humidity sucks but the summer sun is an absolute delight

- An ice cream van on every corner. You're a liar if you say you can resist the temptation!

- Summer days spent laying on a picnic blanket at the park. Never have naps felt so good

- Holiday time! The ability to shred the stress of everyday life and jet off to paradise for a week or two

- Summer fashion is one of my all time favourites. My wardrobe is pretty sundresses galore!

- Light evenings are a god send. I'm writing this blog post at 9pm and the sky is still shining blue outside

- Opening the windows without freezing to death! We all need a bit of fresh air but winter air is far too bitter

- Pink lipsticks dominate more than half of my collection 

- As a blogger, I really do appreciate having limitless natural lighting! The winter kills my motivation

- Eating outside! It's such a rare treasure in the UK and we grab every single opportunity that presents itself

- For most, summer is the time where your responsibilities start to dwindle. Run free, young grasshoppers!

- A salad for dinner actually starts to become longed for in the summer, wanting something cool and light

- Festivals! The summer is the perfect season for all music lovers, with festivals up and down the country

- For me, the summer brings freshly darkened skin. Oh what a gift it is to be able to naturally tan

- And, if all else fails, the summer can be used an excuse for anything and everything. 'Oh, it was summer...'
