Guest Post: Take Me Down To The Goblin City, Where The Faces Are Green And Far From Pretty!
Me - Ello!
You - Did you just say âHelloâ?
Me â No, I said âELLO!â, but thatâs close enough! Iâm Jade from The Style Rawr, fashion bloggers extraordinaire and fan girls of everything Truffle Shuffle, nice to meet you! Iâd invite you to come inside to meet the missus but this isnât my blog, and errrâ¦. Iâm not a blue haired, scarf wearing worm in 80âs epic movie Labyrinth!
As a HUGE Labyrinth fan (obvs), I was super excited when Truffle Shuffle asked me if I wanted to check out one of their exclusive Labyrinth T Shirts, the Ladies White You Remind Me Of The Babe Bowie Labyrinth T Shirt - £20, and it inspired me to play a little dress up, just like our teenage heroine Sarah!
SO, ahem . . . (checks lines) . . . Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the garden patio beyond the back kitchen to take back the child that you have stolen. For my pose is as strong as yours, and my style is as great...

Amazing, Cult Movie Tees
There's nothing we like better than snuggling up on the sofa under a blanket with a huge bucket of salty popcorn watching old school movies when the rain is pounding down outside! Our love of all the cult classics, has fed our insatiable desire to buy as many amazing movie tees as possible. Here is a little glimpse of some of the highlights.
The 80's heralded the arrival of a group of teens who made a massive impact on the movies of the day. Stars such as Matthew Broderick, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy,Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson and Emilio Estevez acted out their angst in a series of coming of age films.
My Top 5 Movie Tees
As you may imagine, when people find out I work at T-Shirt emporium TruffleShuffle.com, the first question I'm asked are which are my favourite designs.
Being a self confessed 80's movie buff, I have a particular soft spot for our 80's Movie T-Shirts so I couldn't resist running down my top 5 for you.
Enjoy!
1. Dark Crystal Movie T-Shirts
Inspired of course by one of the best Jim Henson films of my childhood, this awesome The Dark Crystal design is a great way to remember the legendary 80's fantasy flick that terrified and amazed in equal measures. One minute I'd be wide eyed in a world of beautiful fantasy and adventure and the next it would have me hiding behind my pillow from the Evil Skeksis, the bad guys of the film who looked like giant, skeletal crows who'd been dressed in rotting flesh. Imported especially from the US of A, not only do I love this because it pays homage to one of my childhood classics but also because it's one of our rarer designs, only available in limited numbers so you're unlikely to see anyone else walking down the street in the same tee as you. Always a bonus.
