Audrey and Marilyn storage boxes

Audrey box

From Audrey screens and rugs to Marilyn room dividers to cushions, I've lost track of the number of products that utilize the glamour and popularity of Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. Here their style is applied to a very practical product: storage boxes

Both boxes use one of each actresses' most iconic films for inspiration. In the case of Audrey, it's Breakfast at Tiffany's, while the Marilyn box uses images from The Seven Year Itch. So, even if what you put in them is dull, the outside will still look chic. 

The boxes are self-assembly and come in two sizes: 32 x 40cm (width by depth) at £11 and 40 x 50cm for £13.
