Love is in the Air!

Hello love bugs,

Let me introduce myself, my name is Miranda, and I am a Manchester girl with a passion for music. I was very much a child of the 90’s – I grew up listening to influential musicians from my hometown such as Morrissey and Oasis and a love of music blossomed from there.

My appreciation of all things retro started at the grand age of 6, when I got my first album. It was a Ramones album, a band that had formed 15 years before I was even born. I even insisted for a time that my family called me ‘Riff’ in honour of Riff Randall from the 1979 film ‘Rock 'n' Roll High School’ featuring the Ramones. I was a little quirky, perhaps.

I still regularly watch ‘Rock 'n' Roll High School’, and I’d consider myself a huge film fan, although my husband is constantly infuriated by my refusal to watch anything new.

“How about we watch a film? The King’s Speech maybe? It’s supposed to be brilliant.”

“Erm, how about we watch Wayne’s World again?”

Bread and Butter Berlin 2012: Turn it up to 11!

I was lucky enough to attend the amazing Bread and Butter trade show last week. Based in Berlin, this ultra-inspiring event is like a big melting pot of brilliant brands, designers, fashion trends, glamour, catwalks and above all, creativity. Hosting thousands of visitors each season, we spotted some amazing examples of street style, design and just generally cool shizzle so we couldn’t resist sharing.  Check out some of my favourite snaps of the day below….

The event took place in the old Berlin Templehof airport meaning the entrance looked fab with check in desks, retro airport signage and goodie bags and guides rotating on a luggage conveyor belt. It gave us loads to look at before we had even entered the venue!

Here's a little overview of some of the stalls, as you can see everything was crammed in meaning there was so much to see and do.

The amazing Tommy Hilfiger don’t do things by half – check out their huge stand which came complete with a proper ice rink complete, topped off with tonnes of model penguins. Amazing.

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..."
