I have never set myself any new years resolutions before but this year I am going to try it. I have had a fabulous 2017 on the whole so it’s not because of the usual reasons, but because I just want to!
1. No more Nexgen nails… This is hard for me as I love my nails to look amazing, but I am doing it to save some money. It costs about Β£20/Β£25 every 3-5 weeks (depending on how quickly my nails grow) if I were to average it at Β£22.50 every month I will be saving Β£270 a year π bloody heck, that’s half a holiday!
2. I spend so much of my money that I earn extra in the month on food & drink or clothes. So I am going to stop. Definitely the food & drink part. I will always take food to work with me from now on. The clothes I won’t completely stop, as obviously clothes get worn etc. I can’t obviously tell you how much this will save as it’s not a set amount π
3. This is a tough one, no more beauty subscription boxes. I love them so much π©π©π© but it’s Β£11.25 a month (they aren’t expensive, see) but that’s Β£135 for the year!
4. To sell all unwanted items. I have so much stuff I don’t need or want. So why not get some money for it?! I plan to find at least 3 things a month
5. This one is different, not money related. I want to be able to tell people when they have annoyed or upset me. Instead of letting it get to me, just say it straight. I feel like if they don’t apologise (if they’re in the wrong) then they aren’t going to be worth my time.
6. Be as happy as I always am βΊοΈβΊοΈ
What are yours, or do you not have any?!

I love the fifth one! I find it difficult to say upfront when things upset me and this one would make a great resolution on my list, too β€ All the best for 2018!

Not spending as much money is for sure one of mine! I’m going to write down basically all my purchases this year so I can actually see where I’m wasting money. Hopefully this will stop me from buying things I don’t need! Happy New year love! x
