Next apple memo board

Apple memo board crop

Like the Balmoral mugs featured last week, this apple memo board from Next clearly references Enzo Mari's 'La Mela'. Even without knowing its predecessor, its graphic red outline will stand out in any kitchen or hallway. Usefully it comes with five further apple shaped magnets, perfect for pinning up notes or photos, and a pen for scrawling messages across the board. The board costs just £22.

You may also be interested in the fruit patterned mugs in the left of the image which feature the same apple motif and also a corresponding pear design. A set of the four mugs is even more of a bargain at £7.

Floral Bikini by Shoshanna

Shoshanna

In the UK it's certainly no longer bikini weather, but if you're lucky enough to have holidays planned, or you simply don't mind shopping well in advance, there's some fantastic swimwear currently knocking around. This Floral Bikini from Shoshanna is a great sixties style two-piece that worth investment.

With a very cute halter top, with bandeau design, the shape is perfect with tie side briefs to match. The print uses a floral in adventurously bright colours, against a black background. The effect is an almost psychedelic look that works in sync with the retro shape.

Get it online from Bluefly as separates, for the perfect fit, with a combined price of $110.

Seventies Sunflower Cushion

Sfcc%20WEB

There is no shortage of retro print cushions out there and indeed we hardly go a week without featuring one. So not wanting to break that tradition, may I draw your attention to this Seventies Sunflower Cushion.

The square cushion has been made by hand in a cotton featuring a very bold sunflower pattern. The yellow/orange sunflowers on a brown background version pictured here is probably the most authentically 70s looking, but cushions are also available in olive green and purple or shades blue, both against white backgrounds.

The cushions cost £20 with a fibre cushion pad. Deduct £3 for just the cover or add £4 for a feather pad. Buy online from HunkyDory Home.
