Retro breeze: fans from John Lewis

Even on not particularly hot days, sometimes you need to get the air moving a little bit for comfort. This retro-style desk fan in cream has caught my eye and offers three speed settings for your perfect cooling breeze. It's 36 x 25cms, comes with a three-year guarantee and is also available in red, chrome and black. £45 from John Lewis.
