Plenty of options when it comes to this kind of design, but the affordable budget mushroom lamps at H&M Home are worth checking out. A great retro look, plenty of colours and an affordable price tag. bit.ly/4nC0zOJ
1990s fashion spotters will know this one immediately. The Pulp Disco 2000 polo shirt has been reissued by Gabicci Vintage. Yes, the one worn by the male half of the couple in the band's 1995 video. bit.ly/41YyN6O
I don’t usually pick out small items as much these days, but I really wanted to share this pop art Love Door Mat at Joy because it looks great and has a pocket-friendly price tag too. bit.ly/46EHvd0
Not the first Bruce Lee shoes, but the limited edition 1970s Adidas x Bruce Lee Jabbar Lo trainers will sell out fast, so don't hang about if you want a pair. bit.ly/4nwga26
I've been thinking about him bit recently, so decided to put together an as worn by Steve McQueen round-up, covering his general look, and picking out six classics he has been seen in. bit.ly/4mNm4fv
A substantial place and a time capsule of the era, this 1960s modern house in Lower Earley, Reading, Berkshire, is up for auction. bit.ly/4mZHh5O
One item has been pretty much consistently in the Adidas range for over 50 years. The Adidas Trefoil 3-Stripes t-shirt. It's a bona fide retro classic. bit.ly/3JcOocm
A throwback design with more than a hint of Britpop about it. This 1990s-style Indie Disco t-shirt at Joanie is perfect for a summer's day and a night of dancing. bit.ly/3UHwQYt
Something of a throwback design, these 1970s-style brown glass tables at John Lewis are perfect for a retro living room - and priced well compared to something similar and vintage these days. bit.ly/4lqEYYa
A space-age classic and featured in books and exhibitions on the subject, this 1970s Patrice Dupont Philips 303 UFO record player on eBay right now is a gem of an example. bit.ly/47n72Ik
Famously worn by John Lennon (on the Abbey Road cover and on his wedding day) and Serge Gainsbourg, the Spring Court G2 plimsolls are still something of a cult classic shoe decades on. bit.ly/4opiKs5
One word pretty much sums up a movement. And Blitz: The Club That Created the Eighties by Robert Elms will be worth a read if you have any interest in the new romantic movement or youth cults of that era. bit.ly/45btToZ
I still have one of these, and oddly, with the two games pictured here. So I’ll definitely be investing in the upcoming Lego Game Boy. bit.ly/45r0hTA
Never mind double denim, you can go triple denim if you invest in this rather eye-catching Levi’s Back Pocket Tote. bit.ly/46wCpjv
Let’s ignore the fact that the tech wasn’t around in the mid-20th century and simply enjoy the Ikea Nattbad midcentury modern Bluetooth speaker for its looks, its functionality and its price tag. bit.ly/4oeBDhp
Going straight onto my Christmas list is the upcoming Vintage Motels book by Ellie Seymour, published by Luster. It looks amazing. bit.ly/4f2Go9O
Once upon a time, these were given away with a football magazine. But you can still buy classic League Ladders if you know where to look. In fact, they've just been updated for the upcoming season. bit.ly/45hPXgD
Looking for something retro to wear on your wrist and to tell the time? I’ve pulled together my 10 of the best 1970s-style watches, covering all budgets and a few different styles. bit.ly/46Po1mp
I mentioned the deckchairs from this range a while back, but now the Habitat x Scion vintage garden sofa set is in the sale. And it's a beauty, especially at the lower price. bit.ly/3TFVwzR
So many good ones around right now, but I've managed to keep this down to five of the best vintage Adidas trainers reissues. And I'll keep this list updated as new ones arrive. bit.ly/46exiEx
