Adidas Vintage Airline bag

Adidas_airline1

A nod to the past, mixed in with the present day, that's what you get with the Adidas Vintage Airline bag.

With the Vintage Airline bag, Adidas has updated one of its archives designs for the present day, using the classic shape of the airline travel bag, made from a synthetic material that gives the impression of soft leather.

Aside from that, there are three pockets, a large strap and a vintage-style Adidas logo. Choose from three colours (another pictured over the page), all selling for £30.

Blush B-Lush Fan Evening Bag

Blush fan bag

There have been many motifs that have been reinvented throughout fashion, not least 1920s inspiration. It might be confusing to figure out, but this 1980s-does-1920s style bag from Blush needs no justification.

Made from white leather, this fan shape is reminiscent of art deco design, accented further by the gold highlighting. Easily combined with the right outfit to make a perfect twenties style accessory, this also holds up as an eighties inspired number thanks to the materials and modern twist in design.

Get it online from ASOS for £300.

Cream Frame Vintage Clutch from Miss Selfridge

Ms cream vintage

The high street's love affair with eighties influence is still going strong, and moving into explorations of the decade's style far beyond neon and leggings. This Cream Frame Vintage Clutch from Miss Selfridge is instantly recognisable in eighties influence, without looking like something from the dressing up box.

Made from faux leather, this off-white cream shade combines perfectly with the turquoise blue for a mainstream eighties look. The classic clutch shape keeps this bag from looking over the top, giving it the opportunity to turn into a lasting wardrobe item.

It's new at Miss Selfridge now for just £25.

Sixties Swim Happenstance Bag

Orlatributebag

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery apparently so we hope Orla Kiely doesn’t object to the products made my Etsy seller, majkatree. Her Sixties Swim Happenstance Bag is closely inspired by the designer’s signature stem print.

It has been handmade in cotton with felt appliqué in bright colours to give it a 1960s feel. On the inside, it has four useful pockets. It costs $60 (plus $5 shipping inside the USA, $6 everywhere else).  There are purses and cometic bags in similar styles also available.

Visit majkatree’s Etsy store to buy.

Deadworry Bicycle Field Bag

Farthingbag

Deadworry is a small independent print shop in Florida who describe their designs as a mixture of cute and creepy, but don’t that description put you off as a lot of their designs have a retro influence. They have a wide selection of bags, of which this Bicycle Field Bag is my favourite.

The old-fashion bicycle (a penny farthing?) is hand screen printed on 100% cotton canvas in a putty colour. The bag itself looks to be a decent size for carrying around your daily things.

It costs just $20 from the Deadworry website.
