Something is happening. It's like the whole world shifted and the greeting card which states "Life Begins at 40" is actually turning into a reality. Over the last few months we have seen Anne Hathaway, 43, play a 40 year-old lead in a rom com in The Idea Of You - where she not only looks amazing, but she is desired by a younger man and nonchalantly wears ripped jeans with long flowing curled hair with pride. And now Sienna Miller, 42, with her distinctive boho-style is taking one for the 40-plus team by collaborating with high street giant M&S, sending a message to everyone that life most certainly doesn't stop as you hit middle age. And side note: you're allowed to prefer M&S to Zara. It was announced yesterday that the style icon will be launching a limited edition range with t...

Some environmentalists on Monday said that unwholesome human activities had reduced the nation’s forest resources to less than 25 per cent.

Although Ahmadu said that there were enough experts in the country, she noted that they could still be more than the present number. She said that ...
