Hello retro clothing fans!

Ever wanted to know just what everyone else is buying? It's almost like wanting to peep into someone shopping bag in town to see what they've just picked up....just us?

Not that we like to be nosy of course, it's more a hangup from our early inquisitive years as youngsters, always wanting to know.... what's over that fence, over that wall, behind that gate, or in that cupboard under the stairs. It's that wanting to know just because you don't know right now. So yeah probably a bit nosy :)

Well....hopefully setting your mind to rest for the TruffleShuffle website at least, we've compiled a list of our latest bestselling t shirts that everyone is buying right now for you to take a peep at. Enjoy!

Get ready to feel old movie fans! This week we’re celebrating the whopping 10 year anniversary of Simon Pegg’s masterpiece, Shaun of the Dead!

We can’t believe it either, the first film of the “Blood and Ice Cream trilogy” was originally released a whole decade ago, so to celebrate, here’s ten things you might not know about this fabulously funny, all-brit, homage-filled classic. Enjoy!

.

1. Repetition is key. Throughout the film, a number of phrases are repeated or mirrored, including “Sorry Shaun, no... I’m sorry Shaun.” and “Top left, reload, I’m on it! Nice shot!” which is something Alfred Hitchcock used to do in order to build suspense or give the audience suspicions about a character, Edgar Wright uses a number of horror movie conventions for comedy purposes. The most obvious of which comes in the form of quick cuts of short actions which usually implies a hasty retreat or preparation for war but in Shaun, they just make a cup of tea or go to the car. Genius.

2. It’s one of many techniques that was honed by Wright when making Spaced way back in 1999 and the movie was inspired by an episode of the series in which Tim (Pegg’s character) stays up all night and begins hallucinating, seeing zombies from the 1996 Playstation game, Resident Evil.
