Frames of reference

Three pairs of glasses with pink, tortoiseshell and blue frames
Eye candy: available in 175 colours

Cubitts makes an excellent pair of glasses and its new Jermyn Street store also offers a spectacle atelier. The St James collection can be ordered in one of 175 custom colours. Very fancy.

Candid camera

Relive the old days when the instant analogue camera was as immediate and personal as photography got. The new Polaroid OneStep – launched 40 years after the original model – is here: no delete button, finite film.

Danish design studio Hay has gone Scandi on Scandi by collaborating with Ikea. The 30-piece collection features everything from candlesticks to sofas. The range is called the Beauty of Basics and the name is apt.

French polish

L’Objet’s new fragrance is called Oh Mon Dieu No 69. That’s a reference to Parisian life in 1969. Obviously. Incense stick holder £55, l-objet.com

Time for bed

A simple blue/green cot with white bedding
Sweet dreams: a stylish cot for £79

Stylish cots typically come at a cost, but Mokee designs are different – maybe because they’re created by a dad annoyed by the cost of baby stuff.
