Encourage some '80s dreams with this boombox pillow set.
Yes, in what's the second music/comfy place to lay your head related post of the day, these white cotton pillowcases have been printed with a black and white line drawing of a set of old school decks. You'll need a double bed or larger though, as the design of the boombox stretches across both pillows.
The pillowcases cost £25.

Technology is a funny thing. We're desperate for the next big thing, but as soon as it comes…we're nostalgic for the technology that's been dumped on the scrapheap. But there is a middle ground – this Boombox Speaker for iPhone and iPod for example.
Yes, that's right – old school looks meet new school technology. Compatible with all generations of iPod and iPhone, just slip in your Apple device (see how to do that over the page) throw out those vintage grooves via the 12w speakers within.
There's also an alarm and sleep function, accurate real time clock display, separate bass and treble controls, USB flash drive and SD/MMC card compatibility, a remote control and the option to use batteries or mains. £255 secures you one.
There's no doubt that picnic season is well and truly upon us. As a change from using the traditional wicker as a means of carrying your stuff about, how about a more 80s inspired look with the Boxsall urban picnic?
As you can probably tell from the picture, it's a box printed to look like a boombox. It's not just a novelty item however, as it also contains some pretty useful stuff: eating implements, trays, bowls, cups, napkins and even a rubbish bag. As an eco friendly incentive, everything is made from compostable materials. Alas it doesn't also provide the food or musical soundtrack for your picnic – you'll have to look elsewhere for both of those.
The urban picnic costs $35.
