No Tricks this Halloween....just Treats with our 80's Fancy Dress!
With Halloween fast approaching â we have an office full of very excited TruffleShufflers!
We do love any excuse to get glammed up in Fancy Dress - and with head turning results like this, who could blame us?
Perhaps this year Lee could opt for something a little more...'manly'? (We did have plenty of options available, however this seemed like the best idea at the time!)
Apart from the difficult task of deciding what party you are going to â the most important thing is choosing a costume and as always - TruffleShuffle have it sorted. Whether it be as simple as adding one of our retro wigs to an 80âs-tastic outfit or going all out and dressing up as your favourite Super Hero or 80âs icon, we have lots retro halloween costumes to choose from.
I have decided to ditch the home made costume (involving black bin bags and a whole lot of hard work!) and opt for something a bit more exciting:
Katy Perry loves our Beans on Toast Ring which is given to her by a fan!
Katy Perry, known for her fashion forward statement looks was snapped out last night sporting our fabulously quirky Beans on Toast ring!
Katy sported the ring after playing her sell out California Dreams Tour @ The Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield and it turns out it was one of our lovely customers Becky who gave it to her. Yup - Becky was lucky enough to have won a meet and greet with Katie before the show during which she gave Katy the ring who loved it so much, she had actual tears in her eyes!
Even more excitingly, Katy herself then tweeted saying..
Yup, the singer instantly adorned her finger with ring and let the world know how much she loved it via Twitter! Cute or what!
A big thank you to Becky for spreading the TruffleShuffle love to one of our favourite pop princesses - follow her on twitter here!
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...
Spotted - Our Who The F**k Is Mick Jagger T-Shirt in Maroon 5's New Video
Maroon 5 frontman, Adam Levine has become the latest rock n roll icon to wear the iconic Men's Who The Fuck Is Mick Jagger T-Shirt from Worn By in their new video, Moves Like Jagger.
Keith Richards first donned this provocative t-shirt in 1975 for the Rolling Stones Tour of the Americas and Mick's stylist Pierre Laroche also wore the t-shirt on the same tour so it's now become something of a legend and the perfect fit for Maroon 5's new Jagger tribute tune.
The Jonas à kerlund-directed vid opens with classic footage of Jagger, during which a reporter asks the iconic Rolling Stones frontman how long he plans to make music.
"I don't know. I never thought I'd be doing it for two years even," a young Jagger says, as the opening whistles of the Maroon 5 song kick in, throughout which a slew of Jagger look-alikes are shown dancing up to a central microphone, interlaced with archival footage of Jagger himself and shots of band members James Valentine, Jesse Carmichael, Michael Madden and Matt Flynn rocking out on their instruments.
Check it out below and keep your eyes peeled for our Who The Fuck Is Mick Jagger T-Shirt Levine and several extras sport at various moments in the clip.....

Minnie Mawi Looking Fabulous At London Fashion Week!
Claire and I were very lucky darlings indeed last Friday when we crossed the West-East divide, teetering our way over to London hot on the heels of the fash pack on route to London Fashion Week. After a quick stop off at the Chaser LA showrooms, where we saw some pretty amazing new collections due over the coming months and new year (keep your eyes peeled) we headed over to the Strand and Somerset House. We have been drooling over the Minnie Mawi collection for Disney Couture over the past couple of weeks here at Truffle Towers so it was very exciting to go and see all the stunning up and coming pieces at the Fashion Week exhibition. We were met by the lovely Sandra and Lisette, who looked very at home in the uber fashionable surroundings. I managed to get a few snaps whilst I was there...
After taking a tour around, seeing some stunning new brands showcasing their latest collections, stopping for coffees and people watching, I scampered off, Hoxton-bound for some fun times and slightly dodgy 90's rave dancing flaunting my new favourite thing, my Ivory Pearl Minnie Mawi Bib Necklace!
Who Ya Gonna Call?
This week we've just launched a brand new collection of Ghostbusters T-shirts from Fame and Fortune. Of course this got everyone in the office buzzing, but I was most excited of all cause designing these Tees was my first ever project for TruffleShuffle! Seeing the final results of my work is such a great feeling and it took me back to when I had just started working here as a designer. For me there couldnât have been a more perfect starting point as I am a huge fan of the classic film, I remember that I couldnât wait to get started!
The first step towards building a new collection of tees is to really research your subject, so luckily for me it was the perfect opportunity to spend an evening in and watch the film again for the 100th time, any excuse will do! I knew there were a number of bases I had to cover, everyone loves Stay Puft, Slimer is a definite and we really wanted to see the Ecto-1, but it was really useful (and fun) to see the film again as it refreshed my mind and reminded me of some really classic catchphrases and scenes. It was the best way to get me back in the Ghostbusting state of mind!
As well as the ultra popular âWho ya gonna call?â and âI ainât afraid of no ghostâ I loved the phrases âDonât cross the streamsâ and âWhen the light is green the trap is cleanâ and was determined to get them included on one of the tees!
I also included the Ghostbusters Montage design to show our four heroes fighting against some of the monsters from the film as well as a special appearance from the ghost best know from the films main logo!
