31 Retro-Inspired Items For People Who Dig A Nostalgic Vibe

Promising review: "This skirt is absolutely beautiful. I wore it for family photos. The material is thicker so you cannot see through it at all, plus it has pockets!! There is no stretch to the waistline, however I went by the size chart and it was true to size. This piece can be dressed up or down." T

Promising review: "I've been seeing retro-style typewriter keyboards on TikTok for a while now. I aways thought, 'That looks pretty cool!' Decided to look on here and found this one. I just got it today and so far has been working great! I had no problems connecting the keyboard via Bluetooth, and the clicking of the keys is really nice, one of the reasons why I wanted to get this." dee

Promising review: "So comfy, so worth it. I have been eyeing these slippers for some time and finally ordered them. When they arrived, they were in a vacuum sealed bag and I was concerned and confused because they felt so hard. As soon as I removed them from the packaging, they fluffed up and felt sooo comfortable. Theyre soft and feel great especially with the rubber sole!" Natasha

Promising review: "My girlfriend and I had a lovely picnic together at the beach using this blanket. The two of us easily fit on this mat with plenty of room for our lunchbox and other items. It is rigid enough to not press into the sand, yet comfortable to sit on. It matches my picnic lunchbox design, which is part of why I chose this blanket. Sand was easy to brush off, and folds neatly." DS

Dragon Glassware is a family-owned, California-based small business that specializes in custom glassware.

Promising review: "These are wonderful. Feels great in my hand. All glass. Beautiful colors. Would also make a great gift. The Barbie logo is on the bottom of the glass. Recommended to be hand washed." K. Scott

Levain & Co is a small business that specializes in kitchen conversion charts and kitchen tools.

Promising review: "I bake often (following recipes on the internet) and usually have to convert some of the ingredient amounts. Im glad I got this super helpful, especially because it has the conversions for different ingredients. Its also very cute! Its not too big either which is a plus." Jasmine

Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! I am a big fan of flare/bell bottom jeans. I loved them back in the '90s and early '00s and I still love them. It's irritating that stores don't sell them. I don't care what's in fashion, I care about what I like and how it looks on me. I was a little apprehensive to buy these because of the elastic waist but I did it anyways, and bought two pair because I need flares back in my life again. Once I tried them on, the elastic was out of my mind. They are a little long but that's how I like my jeans. Favorite jeans ever. I will wear them probably every single day this fall and winter season. And spring as well. Probably summer too. Buy them. You won't regret it." Shell

Promising review: "I dont like the larger shades, so these are perfect for me. The lenses are not so dark that they distort what I am looking at. I love the design look without the designer price." Lydia Harrison

Promising review: "After three previous toasters my wife finally has found one she loves, yeah!!! We live in a tiny house and this is an awesome little appliance. The hard boiled egg function is by far the simplest and best you will ever find. Very well packaged for shipping and received quickly. Perfect match for our other retro appliances." Old school

Promising review: "I never could get my old toaster clean, and it was getting sad. I do not like Sad Toast. This charmer is lovely to look at, and does a great job making Happy Toast which is just the right shade of lovely brown. A chart comes with the toaster. I find I needed to set it a little higher to get the toasty goodness I desired. Goes beautifully with my vintage Jadeite glass dishes. I feel so retro I may need to invest in a frilly apron." Margaret C.

Promising review: "After reading reviews and seeing similar body types to mine, I decided to take the big leap and buy this suit. I'm about 200 lbs., wear a 1620 depending on the brand. I have a VERY difficult time finding bathing suits that fit the way I want. I took the advice of other reviews and purchased the 3XL or otherwise labeled as a US 12/14. HOLY HECK, THIS ONE BLEW ME OUT OF THE WATER!!! The fit is perfect. I'm very glad the bust area had more fabric! I may just buy this in every color." Emma Mass

Beach State is a small business specializing in premium, high quality beach umbrellas. Check out a TikTok of the umbrella in action.

Promising review: "This umbrella is exactly what my family was looking for as our everyday beach umbrella large diameter, high quality, and cute retro design. It is a higher end umbrella but still slightly less expensive than the other big name designer beach gear company that we were considering. It is easy to pop up and stays standing, and weve had many compliments from other people at the beach asking where we got it. The customer service from the company was excellent. Would definitely recommend these umbrellas!" Taryn

Promising review: "Cutest bread box ever! Very well built, large enough for an eight-pack of hamburger buns, a loaf of bread, and a half-eaten bag of chips." Reader

Promising review: "I had a difficult time finding a backpack for overnight stays and day trips. I didn't need laptop storage, just a few clothes and toiletries. Ifinally found this denim backpack which is perfect. Just the right size and room for my needs. The only improvement I'd like is slightly larger outside side pockets. It can be done, but it's a struggle to get a water bottle in them." jayares

Promising review: "Got this for my office, as our HVAC is temperamental. It has two speeds to choose from, and I find both not overly loud. It gives a decent breeze and helps fight off the heat and stuffiness on the days that the AC is not up to par. It's a good compact size, and I love the retro styling. It fits perfectly on my desk. I kept going back and forth as to whether or not to buy it. I'm so glad I did! It's been a lifesaver many times over." bvegan

Promising review: "Ordered one for me and my boyfriend since were taking a trip to Disney in June. These are perfect just the right price, thick enough to keep you warm, but you wont be too hot in this, so I love them." Emily Ramos

Promising review: "My only regret is I didn't buy these sooner! I love the handle on the top, the rubber bottoms, and the easy pour design. The green color is so cute as well! Just buy them!" Jessica

Crosley is a US-based small business that specializes in retro-style record players and furniture. Check out a TikTok of the tulip chair in action.

Promising review: "I love these chairs. They are very sturdy and I love how they look on my porch. Also, they remind me of the chairs that were on my grandparents' front porch in the 1950s and '60s." Tina A. Smith

Promising review: "Super soft, high quality sweater with real buttons!! Its a '50s style cut so perfect for high waisted jeans/pencil skirt or with a black tank top and skinny jeans with wedges. Very good quality!!" April

Promising review: "I absolutely adore these!!! They are so cute and definitely do the job! They keep the surface free from water rings and make me giggle!" johnny williams

Promising review: "Cute little faux microphones. They look like the old style ones, but only have the microphone 'openings' on one side. They worked well for our lip sync contest!" Laura H

Promising review: "We waffled about getting this kettle. Surely the cheapie electric one we had would do the trick for amateur pour-over enthusiasts? No. Wrong. This is superior in every aspect. The temperature holding feature is amazing no more heating up the water, forgetting you started, and having to heat it up again. Definitely more consistent in temperature, creating more consistent cups of coffee." Emily A.

Promising review: "Love this wall clock! It has a beautiful shape and the sweep hand is really nice (unlike the type that tick, tick, ticks). Best item Ive bought in a long time. $20 a deal for real!" Ellen B.

Promising review: "Small, cute, functional clock. Its simple and user-friendly. Great for travel or to use at home.It emits no ticking sound, perfect for those who need silence at night, and has a standard beep alarm. Ive used it as a bedside alarm clock and have found it to be accurate. Ive used it simply to display in the living room as well, because it looks great anywhere! Its only downside is there doesnt seem to be a light/glowing hands to determine the time in the dark if needed, which can be helpful if youre using it as a bedside alarm. Otherwise, its a great clock." Kinsey Maneval

Stacy Kitchen Decor is a California-based, woman-owned Etsy shop established in 2020 that specializes in handmade reusable kitchen towels, aprons and bags.

Promising review: "Love this bowl cover! It fits perfectly and looks so beautiful. Its also sturdy, as Ive washed it by hand and all the daisies are intact. I also appreciate the seller's prompt communication." Nicoco

Promising review: "Came straight to Amazon when I saw these beautiful mugs on TikTok. I just had to have them! Im very picky with mugs, these are perfect for me. Stunning to look at and a pleasure to drink out of. Highly recommend!" Margarita Harutoonian

Promising review: This chair is the cutest and is really comfortable too. Dusty pink color is exactly like in picture and fabric is super soft. Easy assembly took probably 10 minutes. It shipped really fast too! Amazon customer

Promising review: "I love this as Im getting into my super pink era. Its a nice weight and not easily breakable. It holds a lot of knickknacks too, from lipsticks to trinkets. I also think its really cute. Going to get a number of these to put around my home." Agusta

Promising review: "Sound quality and durability is very good! I like the ability to change the artwork on the cover, the ability to change the brightness of the image, the ability to change the volume of the startup/connect/disconnect, the auto-shutoff and auto-sleep mode toggles, and the ability to set a number of alarms (available on the app only, sadly, not out of the box). There's surprisingly a lot you can do with such a seemingly simple device, and it's made more than a great replacement alarm clock for me, which is initially what I bought it for. Highly recommend if you've got the extra coin to spend on something cute, fun, and practical!" Soul Breaker

Promising review: "I was using a small foldable step stool in my bedroom to reach the top shelves of my wardrobe. But you know, those things arent pretty. It wasnt be bringing me joy, just begrudging utility. This ottoman brings me joy. Its pretty, its lightweight so I can move it easily to use it as a step stool, and the storage capacity is perfect for things like my nightly moisturizers, my Kindle and journals, and other little miscellaneous things." Monica N.

Promising review: "I was very impressed and happy with this purchase. The bottles are well made, the cap screws on and off with no issue, and the holder is well made and looks excellent with our retro theme." Ashley
