Challenge Sally!

 And Wow on Wednesday

Dear friends.  Meet Sally Millington,  a 45 year old woman who has been setting herself 52 challenges a year since 2018. 

In addition to completing 336 challenges (so far), Sally also has a side activity of running every single day. She recently passed the milestone of 700 consecutive days.  

The challenges range from physical, creative, relaxing to travel related and some Sally describes as plain daft. Here are 5 of the challenges to show how varied they are. We also have some tips on how you can become an everyday adventurer, like Sally.

#Secondhand September

 Style Not Age challenge

Dear friends. It was my turn to set this month's prompt for the Style Not Age Challenge, and I chose #SecondhandSeptember.  This has become a popular hashtag and topic on Instagram, with many people not buying anything new.

Dear friends. Welcome to my review of September, a good month for socialising with friends old and new, and seeing the big ticket event of the year.  No, not Oasis but Van Gogh at the National Gallery.

Getting the Total Look

 And Wow on Wednesday

Is This Mutton's signature style is a tonal look with colourful footwear, hosiery and jewellery. She calls it The Total Look

Dear friends. If there's one thing I look forward to when the weather gets cooler, it's The Total Look.  This is when I achieve a tonal, or contrasting, look from head to toe, with everything co-ordinating. No black shoes or handbags for me when I could choose purple or rose gold!
