SPOTTED Jorgie Porter Loves Our My Little Pony T-Shirts!

TruffleShuffle were so excited to spot the amazing Jorgie Porter AKA ice skating (Mc)Queen (do you see what we did there?!!) wearing not just one but two of our My Little Pony t-shirts recently while rehearsing for ITV's Dancing On Ice. The first tee we spotted was the fab Ladies Always Chasing Rainbows My Little Pony T-Shirt from TruffleShuffle £20!

Still showing her love for the ponies, the following week Jorgie was spotted in hair and makeup getting ready for the live show wearing our Ladies My Little Pony Stripes T-Shirt from TruffleShuffle £20!

Our tees are the perfect rehearsal attire and we think Hollyoaks star Jorgie looks just gorgeous in both of them. If you fancy recreating the style without the need to learn to skate you can see the whole My Little Pony collection here!

With her professional skating partner Matt Evers, Jorgie is looking like the favourite to win this series and with her clear love of the 80's classics, she is certainly our fave! You can catch Jorgie in action on Saturday and Sunday evenings on ITV1, we will definitely be looking out for some more of our tees, this girl's got great taste!

From Romance to Bromance - TruffleShuffle's Got It Covered This Valentine's!

TruffleShuffle's one stop guide to movies on the box this Valentine’s day!

So if all’s gone to plan Casanova has swept you off your feet or Prince Charming has melted your heart to a cheesy fondue like substance! You may have received acres of roses, masses of heart shaped chocolates or you were lucky your bloke remembered and made that last minute dash to the petrol station and got you something meaningful and romantic like a rose scented magic tree for your car (hey I try!)

Or maybe you don’t  believe in  Valentine's day at all and you’ll ignore everything going on around you because it’s a scam made up by  corporate fat cats and big wigs to get you to waste money on rubbish that’s going to end up in the bin anyway. Whichever category you fall in to I’ll do my best for you if you’re spending Valentine's night in alone or with your partner.

I’ll start with the two most romantic movies on tonight.

First up a film I’ve not seen (it sounds a bit slushy!) “You’ve got mail” ITV2 7.30pm - two rivals in a bookshop business fall in love over the internet, unaware they know and dislike each other in the real world. With Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. It’s most likely to be like “Sleepless in Seattle” but then I’ve never seen that either (most definitely slushy!) I can however quote Joey from Friends and say “Meg Ryan get’s mail and stuff”.

Getting Creative With Our Photography!

Recently we've been trying to push our photography skills here at Truffle Towers. Trying to push our abilities past the everyday standard product shots of our truly awesome tees and accessories to create something to inspire, interest and catch the eye of our much loved fans and customers.

It's turning out to be a very challenging process which feels quite alien to me and puts me on the spot each time forcing me to learning from each mistake so I thought I would share a few of my recent favourites with you.

I am given a brief of the products we want to feature and a few pictures of the type of shots we're looking to recreate and draw inspiration from and then off I go to shoot them! For a recent banner I needed a suitable model and decided our designer James was going to be perfect for the job!

My photo of James was then edited to use as Valentine's banner which is now on the site.

This is the studio where it all takes place!
