The high street’s love affair with retro keeps branching out into increasingly inspired niche areas in vintage and retro scenes, with varying results.

This time Urban Outfitters are having a go at channeling a touch of Old Hollywood glamour. This Mesh insert top reminds me somewhat of a neckline Marilyn Monroe caused something of a stir with. Unfortunately, you’ll have to use your imagination as UO are a shop which tends to peddle the emaciated look.

This top, however, would look great teamed with some starlet curves and a wiggle skirt. It’s yours for £28.

This is one of many curious little examples of the high street’s tendency to mis-match their retro influences. Whether it works is your call.

This Corsage purse from Loop Kisslock is that pretty snap-shut style that everyone’s Nana used to own. They’ve made it distinctly different though with a mixture of psychedelic colour scheme and print, and very fifties corsage detailing.

The purse costs £12 from Urban Outfitters UK.

You don’t need me to tell you all how white knee boots are an icon of sixties fashion. They’re often taken off, but rarely done well or faithfully.

Thankfully these Nancy boots by Atom Retro look the part thanks to their somewhat kitsch Biba-esque circle designs. Named after the girl who wore them best, they’re a pretty faithful shape too with their low chunky heel.

I’m going to hold back from making any puns on Ms Sinatra’s best known hit and simply say they’ll cost you $185.
