Ingela Arrhenius Tivoli Poster

Ingela-arrhenius-tivoli-poster 
Ingela Arrhenius is fast becoming a favourite with her latest offering, the Tivoli Poster being up her usual high standard.

Ingela is based in Stockholm, and Scandinavian design influences her style along with other 1950s and 1960s designs. Like many of her other designs, Tivoli is probably intended for children, but has a charm that appeals to adults too. The poster measures 50cm by 70cm and is sold unframed, so you can mount it in a frame of your choice.

It costs £18.95 from Hus and Hem.

Anonymous Shop Cushions

Cush_uf11 
Anonymous Shop bring a quirky sense of humour to their products, which is particularly apparent in their cushion designs such as the Urbane Fish design pictured here.

Just as we like it, this design offers a surreal combination of a Victorian-style illustration of a fish next to a Brutalist tower block. Victorian illustrations crop up in their other designs such as the Yorkshire Nectar series. All of the cushions have a vintage-style ticking back and measure 45cm square.

Bonnie Bustier Bikini with Shorts by Jemma Jube

Bik

Australian swimwear label Jemma Jube is inspired by superheroes and super vixens; tough talking ladies who flaunt their curves but can more than hold their own in a man's world.

The Bonnie Bikini takes a classic retro shape and cuts it to flatter – accentuating the bust with an underwired balconette bustier and slimming the stomach and hips with super-high-waisted shorts. It's a sexy look that keeps you covered and combines the style of vintage swimwear with modern fabrics that work to conceal and enhance your figure in all the right places.

eBay watch: 1968 Porsche 912 Classic – at just 99 pence

Porsche

Ok, it's unlikely to stay at that price for long, but it's nice to see a low starting price for a very cool car on eBay – this 1968 Porsche 912 Classic.

An incredibly stylish coupe, it's not perfect and has been stood in dry storage for a few years. But if you are willing to invest a bit of time, effort and money in this, it will really pay off. According to the seller, it will need some recommissioning, although it runs when parked and has no bodywork issues.

Lots of images on the site if you need a closer look and as we said, just 99 pence right now.

Retro Styled Sweaters by Sonia Rykiel

Rykielsweaters

Warmer weather may be just around the corner for most of us, but that doesn't rule out the room for stylish knitwear in your retro wardrobe just yet. Especially when we're talking about items as stylish as these Retro Sweaters from Sonia by Sonia Rykiel.

The skinny knit tops both start with a slim and feminine silhouette, with a classic crew neck to finish. But it's the subtle addition of fifties motifs that makes these stand out, borrowing from 50s tattoo imagery with both the cherry and anchor emblems. Ideal for a more relaxed nod to retro style, these jumpers are the sort of item you'll wear with everything.

Available now from Matches Fashion in the UK, they're both priced at £208, with the striped option in two colour choices.

Denim Button Dress from Oasis

Denimdress

Denim is a fabric that famously made its way into fashion from workwear in the 1950s, but it was a later decade that truly embraced it throughout fashion. The seventies took the classic blue stonewash and used in everything from jackets to dresses, like this retro Button Through Dress from Oasis.

The pinafore style of the dress is simple yet structured, creating a silhouette that wears well with such a stiff material. With a mid-length hemline, tailored waist and thick straps, the seventies style points are easy to see throughout.

It's available now from Oasis for £55.
