Happy Friday!

This week’s weather has been a real mixed bag – one minute it feels like spring has finally arrived, the next we’re back to grey skies and chilly breezes. If the unpredictability has you craving a cosy night in, we’ve rounded up the 30 best women’s pyjama brands so you can relax in style.

Looking ahead to warmer days and summer holidays? Our travel desk has reviewed the best first-class amenity kits from top airlines, so you’ll know exactly what to expect if you ever get the chance to fly in style. And if first class feels a little out of reach, I’ve spotted up to 67% off a four-star stay in Brighton – because who doesn’t love a seaside escape? Sunshine or not, there’s plenty to enjoy.

On the shopping front, the Ray-Ban sale currently has up to 50% off  – ideal timing for brighter days. There’s also up to 65% off Birkenstock at BrandAlley; my trusty pair have been getting plenty of wear lately and are perfect for slipping on to potter around the garden.

In beauty, this serum claims to reduce wrinkles in just 10 minutes – so we asked our 60+ tester to put it to the test. And if you’re after fuller-looking lips (no needles required), we’ve found eight of the best lip plumpers for a naturally defined pout. Plus, you can nab up to 80% off skincare at Secret Sales – because you deserve a little Friday treat.

Have a wonderful weekend.
