Planning ahead...

We've all spotted the sparkling Christmas goodies appearing in the shops and although every year I say to myself, 'this Christmas I WILL be organised', I never seem to start shopping for gifts until the last week of December. This year I really don't have any excuses as we have been busily adding tons of new fabulous gift products, here's a little tempter to get you started...

Me love cookie (Cookie Monster that is!)

Although Sesame Street spawned a tonne of my favourite childhood characters, it was Cookie Monster who ruled my heart as a kid growing up!

Yes - Elmo was adorable and I was partial to a bit of learning to Count with The Count but for me, the connoisseur de crumbs was my absolute fave! With his deep, growly voice, and childlike chatter (Me want cookie!) even as a grown up, I can't seem to resist that bright blue fur and trademark googly eyes!

As his name implies, Cookie Monster just loves cookies (don’t we all!) and can usually be found munching away on his favourite treats (OMM-nom-nom-nom...) but luckilly for me, he's also taken time out of his hectic shcedule to star on some of our official Sesame Street Tees!

The perfect way for us grown ups to pay tribute to the voracious monster,  check out some of our exclusive designs below....

Fame & Fortune with TruffleShuffle

Blogging for Wardrobe Mag & TruffleShuffle, I find myself in front of the camera a lot awkwardly posing in the most beautiful of clothes. So when those lovely folks at the TruffleShuffle towers asked me to think of ideas for my next guest post, I had a slightly different proposal…

Instead of being in front of the camera, I thought wouldn’t it be refreshing for everyone to have a break from my lovely mug (ahem) and give someone else a go. Now before you pull that confused expression hear me out.

Fame and Fortune Men's T Shirt

With it being summer (you know that brief period in our yearly calendar when this strange yellow thing called the Sun comes out and we’re all so happy and hot) I thought it would be cool to maybe do a mini photo-shoot. I also thought it would be perfect to show you male TruffleShufflers’ how some of the men’s tees look worn on.

As a keen photographer, I offered to “get my pap on” and take the pictures. With TruffleShuffle providing the t shirts it was just the models left to gather. Unfortunately Kate Moss was busy back then with her pending nuptials but step forward two of the Wardrobe Mag girls: Steph and Bhavna. Now getting a bunch of guys to model wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be but three superhero studs came to my rescue. Once again thank you Anthony, Alex and Kieran.

Now where does one do a super cool summer photo-shoot at? Well the park of course! Where else can we mix a bit of business and pleasure? Just a shame the kiddies had taken over the swings and slides, how inconsiderate.

Ode To The 80's

One of TruffleShuffle's favourite Facebook fans Ashlea Davies has written this amazing poem for us and we wanted to share it with you all as if you are a child of the 80's it will certainly bring back some memories!

The Fresh Prince Of Bell Air,

Is what I really liked,

A true 80's child,

I was totally psyched!

I could rap all the words,

From beginning to end,

Bert and Ernie will not marry!

While catching up on all the news this week TruffleShuffle spotted an amusing story about two of our favourite Sesame Street characters and just had to share it with you! Sesame Street makers have confirmed that Bert and Ernie, best friends forever will not be getting married as was hoped by fans.

The odd pair first appeared on our screens in 1969 with the intention of teaching children that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves. Despite numerous campaigns and petitions calling for the couple to get married the Sesame Street show makers have decided that the duo shall remain very good friends!

For now the quirky characters including other Sesame Street friends Elmo, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Oscar The Grouch and The Count will continue to entertain 120 million viewers across 140 countries, pretty impressive we think.

With such a huge fan base we thought we would introduce our amazing new collaboration with Sesame Street! Exclusive to TruffleShuffle, each limited edition design has been inspired by old school music iconography for the ultimate in 'Street' fashion. Available in both men's and ladies sizes, which one spins your decks?

Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street......?!
