Spike sticker clock from Next

Spike clock

Only last week we showed you the Nelson print by Blue Ant Studio, a print inspired by George Nelson's Spike clock. Now we've spotted this high-street take on the classic design, the Spike sticker clock from Next

Aside from the name, they've clearly taken influence from the radiating spokes of the classic design. However, here the colourful spokes are made of plastic and are self-adhesive so they can be fixed where ever you'd like. 

Brightly coloured and a bargain too, at £20.

Leopard Faux Fur Coat from Next

Fauxfurcoat

Once upon a time, before fashion's politicisation, fur was an unmistakeable signifier of your status as someone of both wealth and taste. Thanks to faux fur versions of everything, we can now achieve an homage to days gone by, without the dubious morals thrown in.

This Leopard Faux Fur Coat from Next is part of their latest sixties-inspired line, tapping into an Edie Sedgwick style. Hers was the look that tread the line between sharp style and just a little bit trashy to perfection. The swing style ideally carries the bold print and fabric choices, creating a look that's feminine without being overblown.

Get it now from Next for a thoroughly affordable £55.

Next offers high street copy of Panton chair

Curve chairs

You'd be forgiven for thinking this room set photograph included the Panton chair. In fact, it's an image from Next's new Autumn/Winter collection, featuring their Panton lookalike, the curve chair.

It's got the same curves and plastic appeal as that iconic piece of 60s design. However, while the Panton chair is available from Vitra in a variety of colours, Next's version is only available in white. 

The main noticeable difference between the two is the price. While you can get an official Panton chair for about £150, a pair of the curve chairs costs £125.

Next classic telephone

Next phone

This telephone from Next is an update of a classic design. Based on the familiar 1960s BT phone, it's been remade in the colours of red, with a white dial detail and a red trim. It's not just the colour scheme that's been given a make-over either: it's actually a push button phone. Still they've retained some more familiar details, keeping the bell ring of the phone.

Next are also selling the same model in a black, red and cream colour combination. Both phones sell for £25.
