Back from ther '70s, but with a 1950s twist, the Clarks Ashcott shoes are back on the market.
Yes, one from the archives, relaunched to 'coincide with the rockabilly trend' according to the maker, the shoes are much the same as the original, which means double lace-up fastening and that chunky crepe sole, finished off with a choice of light or dark suede.
You can secure a pair online at the Clarks website, price is £69.
An icon of the 1970s, this JVC 3240GM Videosphere space age television is just £1 on eBay right now.
Granted you'll need to get it converted for use to digital (in the UK anyway), but if you can deal with that, this is a fine example. A 'limited' grey version, it's described as being in 'very good' condition and 'hardly used'. A few age scratches being the only issue. But on the plus side, the base and chain are intact.
Not sure how much it will go for in the end, but right now, it's a bargain.
Finding knitwear for warmer months can be difficult, with the British weather flitting between extremes. This Summer Ranch Knit Batwing Top from French Connection is an ideal choice, with some true retro appeal thrown in to boot.
The loose, light fit of the top adds to the eighties style batwing cut, with a delicate and light woolen fabric. The bright rainbow shades add some spunk, while the v-neck cut adds some much needed femininity to the oversized eighties cut.
Get it from French Connection UK for £88 in the sale.

According to the seller, the lamp was designed by Knox for Pfaffle, a mix of chocolate brown plastic for the structure and brushed aluminium for the lamp section. Not just a lamp though – this is an alarm clock too.
