Now that 'retro' and 'vintage' is an seemingly all-encompassing thing now, it can be tricky finding something that's simple and actually captures that 'timelss' look from years gone by. However, rummage amongst the loud 80s patterns and ironic t-shirt slogans and there's still a load of gems to be had.
A few years up, we flagged up the Orangina bottle as an everyday design classic. But equally as iconic is the branding – and you can secure this vintage Bernard Villemot-designed Orangina promotional poster in eBay right now.
Finding that killer vintage-look top you can pair with almost anything is often a near impossibility, with most retro design focusing on statement dresses or coats. Thankfully dedicated retro brands like Heartbreaker Fashion have the solution, the latest being this fifties style Gretta Top.
If you like your home furnishings to come with a bit of history then look no further than these Reclaimed Train Luggage Racks from retro interiors specialists Original House.
There's always plenty of choice out there for fifties lovers who favour dresses and skirts, but for a more relaxed take on the era's style it can be a trickier shopping trip. That's what makes these High-Waist Jeans from American Apparel worth a look, with a classic shape that you'll want to pair with everything.
If you want a modern (and official) reproduction of this, it will cost you £432. But this vintage Louis Poulsen PH5 Pendant Lamp by Poul Henningsen is currently on eBay for a small fraction of that price.
