You know you're a child of the 90's when...

After our recent Facebook competition, and with all the exciting ranges we are working on here at TruffleShuffle – it got us thinking about how cool the 90’s were. We’re obviously big fans of anything 80’s related - whether it be 80's t-shirts, hoodies and accessories or just good old fashioned nostalgia, however the (sometimes forgotten) 90’s can be held responsible for a lot of retro goodness...

With the likes of Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Spice Girls, Round the Twist, The Simpsons, Saved by the Bell, Johnny Bravo and Ren and Stimpy.....it's pretty clear why the 90's was such a cool era to grow up in.

If you’re holding out for the Fun House twins or (like me) you’re waiting for Zach Morris to sweep you off your feet – you may have a chuckle about what 'officially' makes you a 90’s kid...summed up by our lovely Facebook fans - here are some of our favourite responses...!

You just cant resist finishing this... "In west philladelphia born and raised..."

You pretended to be either Wolf or Jet

Your first mobile phone wasn't smarter then you

You used to sing Barbie Girl in both Ken & Barbie voice

You start the elderly style complaints about cartoons will never be the same

You actually watch rainbow now and understand the innuendos from a program

You were never "bored" and your mum called your name not your mobile!

You used to have temporary tattoos free from smash hits/top of the pops magazine of your fave bands logo on your arms & pretend they were real

You still call starburst 'opal fruits' and say 'taped' instead of 'sky plussed' a program!

You remember pogs, loved Zack Morris and wanted a pet hedgehog called Sonic...

You say 'HAMMERTIME!' when someone says 'stop'

You spent Saturday mornings on your inflatable chair watching live and kicking/sm:tv live, spent the rest of the day outside playing on your bike and roller blades dressed in your old jeans, sweater shop t shirt and baseball boots, (not a games console insight, apart from the odd half hour on a car trip playing with your game boy), and the evening was spent watching awesome tv - blind date, Noel's house party, and mr blobby!!

You genuinely believed that one day you would marry Zack Morris
