BITS AND PIECES

The tips and tricks that will change your life this week

DON’T SWEAT IT

÷IT’S Menopause Awareness Month and Irish brand Zzzana has come up with the ideal solution for those nights when you are hot under the pyjama collar. It’s range of PJs (€85) and masks are made from organic bamboo fabric which is both natural and soothing on the skin. See zzzanan.com

WRITE AWAY

÷IS your child a budding author? If so, why not enourage them to enter the Specsavers’ nationwide writing competition, which celebrates its sponsorship of the Irish Children’s Books categories at the An Post Book Awards.

Children across the country are being asked to create a short story, no longer than 500 words, inspired by a cartoon picture and the words; ‘I can see you’re going to have the most amazing adventure...’. See specsavers.ie for the picture and full details.

GET THE SUSS

÷SUSTAINABLE Irish fashion brand, The Suss Edit, is range of luxurious sustainable wardrobe essentials. We love The Suss Edit’s Perfect Tee (€49), available in white, black, and mocha. Check out thesussedit. com.

WE LIKE TO PARTY!

÷FUN is back on the calendar so it’s time to relive those shell suit moments at the 3Arena as the Biggest Disco 90s is going ahead. Get dressed for the occasion and watch the Venga Boys (pictured) Whigfield and many more, ticketmaster.ie

HAVE THE EDGE

÷WE could not be more in love with the new Edge Only collection that’s just landed. As well as some beautiful threader earrings in the hexagonal, megastar and spiral drop shapes, there’s a vinyl pendant in gold, silver and black that we need. See edgeonly.com
