It sometimes feels as though our lives are a constant stream of decisions. Growing up, those that seem important at the time – who to play with in the playground or who to invite to your birthday party – soon become inconsequential as the years tick by.

It only feels like yesterday when we were considering the trends for spring and getting excited for the warmer days that lay ahead, and now here we are with the summer solstice marking the welcoming start of the season with its wonderfully long days, warmer evenings and sunny mornings.

It’s always a highly anticipated time of year when the early months of midsummer roll around. Sale season commences in our favourite shops and online stores.
