I love the simplicity of silver jewellery, it’s a modern and easy to wear style. And while I often lean towards gold, I still reach for silver regularly (and mix silver and gold too). Silver works on most skin tones, it’s all about pairing it with the right colours (navy, charcoal, white, black, or even a bright pop of colour like pink). I feel more pulled together when I add my jewellery and a lot of my basic everyday pieces are silver - like my ring and bracelets. I was recently been gifted three pieces of silver jewellery from John Garland Taylor Jewellery and they are exactly the kind of staples I love - simple and timeless, it's jewellery that suits my real, everyday life. In this post I’m sharing some spring outfits featuring a 3-piece silver jewellery capsule, along with a few useful tips on buying sterling silver, the importance of comfort (especially earrings), and how to keep silver looking its best.

Spring always feels like a brand new chapter, the days get longer, the light changes, the sun rises higher, and it's time for a spring clean, a wardrobe detox and maybe a little style inspiration too? And this spring I’m taking a few style notes from Elinor Dashwood in Sense & Sensibility - quietly confident, timeless, and proof that simplicity works. I’m excited to let winter go and I've chosen a cream polka dot dress and a classic rafia handbag for a spring style post. It's an outfit Elinor would approve of (nothing fussy but still very wearable). And because the new season deserves a fresh start, my Kindle is coming with me on my outings, for in-between quiet moments, in a coffee shop, stealing ten minutes of calm in the sunshine, or just choosing to slow down with a cup of tea in my garden. Here's my spring style story ... what's yours? This blog post is sponsored by Very.  Styling my spring dress - I love this little 'secret' garden in Marlow! I've been selling my unwanted clothes and other household items on Vinted for a couple of years now so I am a fairly confident and successful Vinted seller. I like to keep my wardrobe clutter free and avoid too many 'nothing to wear' moments and if my wardrobe is overflowing with things I don't love then I get overwhelmed. I have tried to adopt (mostly) a one in one out policy and I keep a dedicated box handy - my 'sell on Vinted' box as well as another bag for 'donate to charity' items. I then upload a small batch and wait for them to sell. Some go really quickly, others I need to change the price or the description but the biggest tip - make sure your clothing is clean and freshly ironed then include good quality, clear photos. If you want my tips for how to sell on Vinted without the faff, then read on to learn exactly what works for me. You can find me on Vinted here, I am fifty_andfab.  I like to keep my wardrobe uncluttered and regularly sell on Vinted Overheating at night isn't just a midlife challenge, everyone wants to sleep under a comfortable, cosy duvet and know that they won't get too hot, toss and turn all night and feel miserable in the morning Midlife sleep changes are very common in perimenopause and menopause and choosing the right duvet can make a massive difference. It is also very common to get too cold at night, some menopausal women report 'cold flushes' so read on for my ultimate duvet guide in midlife, the good news is that choosing the right duvet isn't complicated once you understand the basics! In this guide I’m breaking down the most common duvet fillings - wool, feather/down, other natural fibres and polyester - plus why hybrid duvets (like the Simba Hybrid Duvet I’ve been testing) can be a great modern option if you overheat. Remember the tog rating is how warm it feels and the filling defines how it handles heat, moisture and weight on the body ... This is a gifted blog post.
