So, what's new...

We like to keep you all on your toes, launching exciting new brands and products every week and so I am blogging today about some of the fabulous NEW additions to our site so you can stay in the loop.

CHASER LA

Fans of The Hills will appreciate this fabulous celeb spot of Whitney Port in our gorgeous Journey Hits boxy tee from premium US brand Chaser LA. This is a great shape for any dedicated followers of fashion with it's over-sized, shorter fit and vintage distressed print. It is also a fab find for any appreciators of 80's rock and the cult anthem 'Don't Stop Believing'.

MUPPETS FROM JUNK FOOD

Another great range to shout about is the brand new Junk Food Muppets tees! These US made tees come in luxurious jersey blends, with aged prints and washes to give them an authentic vintage look and feel. Here are a few of our favourites but you can check out all Muppets tees here.

The Real Life Springfield is finally revealed!

I think I speak for everyone when I say our childhoods would not have been the same without the loveable characters of Springfield. In fact...childhood? About 85% of my Sundays are spent on the sofa watching The Simpsons thinking 'I haven't seen this one - why haven't I seen this one'? The endless pot of goodness is brought to us by Matt Groening - who recently revealed a secret about his inspiration for the setting.

Classed as one of the best-kept secrets in television history, The Simpsons creator Matt Groening has now pointed to Springfield, Oregon, as his inspiration for the animated home town of Homer and the gang. Groening told Smithsonian magazine recently that he was inspired by the television show 'Father Knows Best', which took place in a place called Springfield. He worked out that Springfield was one of the most common city names in the US.

"In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, 'This will be cool; everyone will think it's their Springfield'. And they do," he said.

The show has made a running joke of hiding the true Springfield location. In one episode, Lisa points to Springfield on a map, but the animated "camera view" is blocked by Bart's head

The city has already incorporated the Simpsons into local lore. The Springfield Museum features a couch similar to the animated one shown in the show's opening credits, and a plaque marking the movie's release.

Here are some snaps from the real Springfield, and the Springfield we know and love...

Big Bang Theory T-Shirts Launched!

Big bang theory t shirts at truffleshuffle

We are proud to announce the release of Big Bang Theory T-Shirts onto TruffleShuffle.com

As huge tv nerds and avid watchers of pretty much anything that gives us a giggle, naturally we're in love with The Big Bang Theory! This cult American sitcom that first entered our lives back in October 2007 and since has gained a massive following. Now into it's fifth season there have been over 100 episodes for us fans to enjoy!

For those of you not in the know here's a quick bio:

The show is centered on five characters: roommates Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper, two physicists who work at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech); Penny, a blonde waitress and aspiring actress who lives across the hall; and Leonard and Sheldon's equally geeky and socially awkward friends and co-workers aerospace engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist Rajesh Koothrappali. The geekiness and intellect of the four guys is contrasted for comic effect with Penny's social skills and common sense. Three other supporting characters have also been promoted to starring roles: Leslie Winkle, a physicist colleague at Caltech and, at different times, a lover of both Leonard and Howard; Bernadette Rostenkowski, Howard's fiancée, who is a microbiologist and part-time waitress alongside Penny; and Amy Farrah Fowler, a neurobiologist who joins the group after being matched to Sheldon on a dating website. - Wikipedia

Fans and all things retro obsessed people like us will have noticed quirky cheif geek Sheldon's (Jim Parsons) fantastic collection of retro t-shirts, including classic superheros such as 'The Flash' and 'The Green Lantern' (see right).

From the start of the show he has risen to become a style icon for geeks alike, so much so that there are literally thousands of people searching for his t-shirts online every month!
