Audrey Hepburn has had been things named after her, but Kartell’s Audrey Chair is certainly one of the less obvious tributes.
Designed by Piero Lissoni, the chair has an aluminium frame and is available with a variety of seat colours. It is versatile enough to work in a variety of settings. And its name? Apparently like Ms Hepburn it has an elegant silhouette, with clean and simple lines.
The chair is available to buy from Utility Design with prices ranging from around £175 to £333.
Better-known for grocery shopping, Sainsbury's has a home section too, with one or two interesting finds amongst it, including this Tu midcentury-style Dark Wood Flower Wall Clock.
There's a touch of the George Nelson about it, or at the very least, a 1950s or early '60s feel. If that's the look your after, this is great value. 35cm in diameter, it has that dark wood construction with contrasting hands, able to wall mount easily, as you probably guessed.
Powered by a single AA battery, you can grab one online for just £18.
Sometimes it's the most simplistic and versatile items that become wardrobe favourites, especially when it's a stylish accessory you can turn to almost any outfit. This cool, sixties inspired Box Bag from New Look is a piece that could become an everyday essential, and at a price which belies its good looks.
The rounded box bag structure has a great retro feel, toeing the line between sharp lines and a more youthful appeal like so many sixties designs. The use of a mustard shade of faux leather, along with the gold chain strap and hardware, keeps the vintage colour palette in place too.
It's now available from New Look for just £15.99.
For an instantly recognisable shot of US fifties fashion in any girl's wardrobe, a diner style dress is a great choice. For a hint of that Americana feel, without falling for cliché or cartoonishness, this Betty Lou Dress by Heartbreaker Fashion is very worthy of a look-in.
The structure features a full swing skirt, button through front and sleeveless cut, with a contrasting shirt collar and waist ties creating accents to the slinky silhouette. The dress comes in two shades, mustard and ketchup, for an added wink to the kitschy inspiration.

Looking for a summer runaround? This 1975 Volkswagen Beetle convertible should be just the thing when the sun starts to shine.
Taxed and tested, the 1600cc Beetle isn't an original convertible, it's been converted sometime in its past. But it been restored pretty well, most recently a new stereo and a full set of tyres. What we don't know is the mileage, with 11 previous owners it could be high.
But on the plus side, this isn't the most expensive car in the world, with bidding at £1,700 and a 'buy it now' of £2,000. For a good runner (or what claims to be), that's certainly an affordable classic. More images on the listing.
Round by name, round by nature, that's this Arthur A J Marshman-designed Horton Rounds house in Horton, Northamptonshire.
Arthur A J Marshman designed the house in 1966 on the grounds of the old tennis courts to Horton House. Why he decided on circular is anyone's guess, but we're glad he did, as he's left us a stunning period gem set out over three floors, with an annexe wing and some good outside space.
