80s-style Ghetto Blaster weekend bag

Ghetto_bag

Some time ago we featured the Paul Smith 80s-style Ghetto Blaster bag, which looked the part, but carried a hefty £190 price tag. This Ghetto Blaster weekend bag is much more affordable.

Made of a durable vinyl, it packs that ghetto blaster design on the front, as well as featuring a removable/adjustable shoulder strap, plenty of space for your essentials and a separate space for your mobile phone.

All of that for $54 (around £27).

Helen_bag

Still not been away on holiday? Well, you’re in luck – firstly because you still have time to pick up this Billy Bag Helen beach bag and secondly, because it’s now been reduced.

Very much a 1970s theme going on here, from the shiny vinyl body through to the bold circular design used for detailing. Indeed, that same design is also used for the canvas purse that’s thrown in too – sitting inside your bag for storing your bits and pieces.

Take your pick from some suitably retro colours too, with each bag selling for £38.50 (down from a previous £55).
