This 1960s midcentury modern house in Edinburgh is perhaps the most perfectly-preserved example of the sale I've seen. But offers have to be in this week, so don't hang about if you love it. bit.ly/448vdYt
Whether it’s for sporting action or a weekend away, here’s my eight of the best retro sports holdalls - and most are currently in the sale. bit.ly/4v9qS23

One of my recent favourites, this 1960s midcentury modern property in Little Shelford, Cambridgeshire, which is packed with original details, has just had an asking price reduction. bit.ly/4whrqE2
There’s something unashamedly midcentury about the design, so I’ve picked out my five of the best retro flip clocks. Actually, there might even be six. bit.ly/4vsU3xv
The 1969 movie classic was filmed here, so it’s apt for the Adidas Torino City Series trainers to get an Italian Job reissue. Three colours, limited editions, landing this week. bit.ly/4wpYLwQ
I suspect The Manchester Chronicles: True Tales of Music, Madness and Mayhem 1976–2006 by Clint Boon will be a gem. Great subject matter and an author who has been there and can tell a story. bit.ly/4xJbOdY
A mid-20th century icon, but the classic pen has now been transformed into the Seletti x Bic oversized pen lamp by Mario Paroli. Be great as a quirky light for a home office and can be used as floor lamp or ceiling light. bit.ly/3SZLqfZ
@shinykatie They are the best. I used to have a pair with Velcro fastening!
One of my all-time favourites and with 50 million pairs shifted, one of the best sellers too. The Adidas Stan Smith trainers in their 1980s incarnation are back on the shelves right now. bit.ly/4vpY5qR
The attention to detail within these midcentury modern birdhouses by Fledgling Designs is a joy to behold. And the range constantly changes. I know the birds don't care, but these would look amazing in your garden. bit.ly/3QHdLa9
I haven't done anything for dogs and cats for a while, so how about these? A classic retro Adidas top for your pets in various colours and sizes. bit.ly/4oJKkRy

Sitting within the old conservation area, the midcentury modern Jack House in Portsmouth, Hampshire, is a real gem. Lots of original features, lots of character. bit.ly/3QGFiIY
An exclusive range, you’ll have to pick up this Habitat x Scion retro outdoor seating at your local Habitat outlet or online. But note some of this retro garden collection has just dropped into the sale. bit.ly/4amcZpQ
Back in 2025, they released some models and a garage, which are being followed up by these super-cute Playmobil x Vespa 80th anniversary sets. bit.ly/4eqqDuD
It isn’t cheap, but this Volkswagen Camper Van cool box on wheels looks a lot of fun. Especially if you have a love of the full-size vans. Also, perfect for a heatwave. bit.ly/4eCU6QF
It takes inspiration from a classic (the 1960s Alessi Cronotime desk clock), but this 1960s-style Ikea PS table clock comes in at a fraction of the price. bit.ly/44rjSCK
Hovering between modernism and space age design is the wonderful 1960s Gubi Stemlite lighting range, which has now been reissued. Interesting fact - these were used on the original Star Trek series for that 'futuristic' look. bit.ly/4vrkNPB
@MattAtherden I've got that one and the blue one I'll likely be selling soon in XL. Weirdly both are far too big for me now.
