The good old British supermarket clothing lines are always handy for a cheap and cheerful bargain. Thankfully the ranges are improving all the time, meaning you’re no longer confined to shopping for stripy socks and undies.
George at Asda‘s new summer range features quite a few good looking pieces, including some inspired by 50s preppy style and others by early 70s hippie/folk. Of course, these summery pieces of retro style are unbeatable on price. See them online and buy in stores.
We have mentioned these in the past when the coloured variety got a limited reissue, but if you want something a little more plain, Diadora has reissued the Bjorn Borg Elite trainers in white.
These are reissues of the original 1981 shoe, the first tennis shoe produced with a kangaroo leather upper and of course, created for tennis legend Bjorn Borg.
Back on the market, you can grab a pair for £55.

Vintage fashion has been going through an ever bigger surge than ever in recent years. While charity shops were once the stomping ground of the few, now vintage fashion is hot property for every fashion lover.
With that we’ve seen many of the big high street hitters jumping on the bandwagon. Miss Selfridge‘s often impressive vintage shop has now returned online featuring original one off pieces from the 30s, 50s and 80s. Don’t hang around if you fall for one of these pieces, as with every vintage experience these are one of a kind.
If you’re a vinyl junkie then you probably won’t mind letting everyone know as it is, but a more subtle way to broadcast your penchant might be employed with these cute earrings from Always Amy‘s Etsy shop.
These mini 45s are made from plastic and mounted on a nickel free stud to ensure they’re kind to your lobes as well as looking great. A fun, kitsch accessory that’s hard to beat at just $4 for the pair.
Good old Monopoly, the most enduring of all board games has gone through a lot of changes since it was launched in 1935. Thankfully one mainstay of the game is the Monopoly banker, that cheeky little tycoon we all know and love.
Retrobay has a new t-shirt featuring the man himself. The fun part will be watching people trying to figure out why your little cartoon is so very familiar. Get it online for £11.99 from baby sizes through to mens.
Space Invaders is 30 years old – and to celebrate, maker Taito is producing a limited edition t-shirt and a new online game.
The limited t-shirt is a joint project between Taito and 55DSL and is available from 30th April. It should look something like the above (although that’s obviously a mock up).
But before that – tomorrow in fact – a brand new Space Invaders game will launch under the name Space Invaders World War. It’s essentially a teaser for the t-shirt, but as its Friday, it’s the perfect way to kill work time until the weekend. Check it out via the link below…
