Guest Post: More Yo-Yo Than YOLO!
Hello! Let me quickly introduce myself, my name is Nikki and I am a fashion blogger from Passerellauk, but most importantly of all, I'm a fully fledged 80's baby!
Growing up in the 80's was pretty amazing wasn't it? There are so many things that make the 80's great. If you've all but forgot the crazy times of the 80's, then let me jog your memory a little.
Remember Ring pops, Yo Yo's and Spokey dokes?
We all remember the good old fashioned Yo Yo right? Can you remember the one that lit up? The Coca-Cola spinner? Most people still don't understand why they were so popular... Why were they so cool? It was all because in 1989 the UK was gripped by Yo Yo fever.. and everyone got involved from our friends, to our mums and dads! We took them to school, we took them to the park, we swapped them, replaced them and finally, got very bored of them and that was the end of the Yo Yo craze! I have to be honest, I never learnt one trick, but if I saw a Yo Yo today I would probably have a go.

Sparkling new Coca-Cola gifts at TruffleShuffle!
With all the recent hype surrounding the Coca-Cola advert, it's not only our Holidays are Coming jumpers which are flying off the shelves! We also have a whole range of Coca-Cola goodies for your home - and cool gifts you just can't say no to! Ever since The CocaâCola Company first sponsored a TV show on a US network back in 1950, their advertising has appeared on television screens around the globe in many different, often memorable forms â from the festive red trucks of Holidays are Coming to the group of hilltop singers in the 1971 hit, I'd like to buy the World a Coke! Every one is met with stupid amounts of excitement - and who could blame us? If Santa loves Coca-Cola it must be good.
We have loads of Coca-Cola t-shirts, but what else do we have 'in store' for you?

10 Things You [Probably] Didn't Know About...Mr Men & Little Miss
As you know, we're huuuuge Mr Men & Little Miss fans! So much so we tucked ourselves away and worked as hard as ever to create and bring you our exclusive range of Mr Men T-Shirts AND Little Miss T-Shirts! We might have mentioned them once or twice already :) But hey....classic designs at only £14.99! Who can blame us right?
While digging our way through the iconic stories and books, it got us thinking of a cool little post we could do where we dive in and seek out some cool, interesting and perhaps shocking facts about one of our all-time favourite books. So here it is! Check out our 10 Things You Didn't Know About Mr Men & Little Miss!
1) "What's a tickle look like?" That was the question which launched the series, asked by a young Adam Hargreaves of his dad Roger. Inspired, Roger created the first Mr Men book, Mr Tickle, in 1971. Another five books came out that year.
2) The Mr Men books have been translated into 15 languages, and in this process several other Mr Men characters have been created by editors around the world, such as "Madame Oui" in France. Additionally, some characters have been renamed for foreign markets, such as Mr Jelly, who is known as Mr Nervous in the USA.
