Flashback Thursday: Getting wilder as you get older and to gray or not to gray?

I’m introducing a new feature at 40 Style! According to my stats 1048 posts have been published on this site and many of these articles are still worthy (in my opinion) of being read and seen. Since I have a lot more readers since these articles were published (currently 680,000 page views per month) many of you will never have read them.

So with this new feature I like to highlight some of these older articles that I feel are still worthy of attention. Since this will be the first year of running this feature I will look back at all the the articles within the same time period in previous years. Since this is the last day of April, let’s have a look at April’s articles.
