I’ve discovered a lil shop called Truffle Shuffle that sells retro (well not true retro) items, – t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, a few bags. The range isn’t massive but there’s some really cool things that caught my eye, being an 80s child.
I bought a barbie t-shirt -
Yuk, Paris Hilton wore it. Still I think it’s cute
A hoodie!:
I like the rainbow swirl detail
Then I got a zip up hoodie. I love the way the Little Miss logo is like a multi coloured print:
I got a green (my fav colour) care bear tshirt.
I’m not lucky at all but maybe this t-shirt will bring me luck?!
Finally I got this Wizard of Oz Make up bag -
It’s cute! It comes with a red slipper keyring thing, a little mirror and 3 pins on the back. I hope its not too huge (can it be too huge for a make up junkie!?)
You get free shipping with orders of £50 and free special delivery over £100.
I noticed a 10% code if you a refer a friend – worth if it you spent a fair amount like me, and you can always refer your friend, Miss Me, if you know what I mean….cos your friend gets a code straight away but you don’t. Ahem. (If you don’t get what I’m getting at then forget it, just forget it).
Minor Gripes
A lot of stuff is out of stock. I loved the mugs – hasslehoff! the chesney hawkes mug! the mullet mug! alas all out of stock, so very disappointing. I am also in love with this – in stock last night, out of stock now. Rubbish! What’s it going to be like near Christmas!
Also the sizing – I would normally buy a UK 12 but with these slim fit t’s and the season of gluttony and my Salma Hayek-esque chi-chis I erred on the side of caution and bought 14′s where possible. Hopefully this won’t be a disaster.
And its so damn expensive! Tshirts average at £25 – I think that’s a lot for a simple t-shirt. Hoodies are £35 – £40 – once again expensive in my opinion. I am thinking that it may have something to do with licensing since everything on there is branded. I am thinking the quality should be high too for that price.
Expected on Tuesday. It’s one of those sites that makes me feel like it’s a pretty reliable company and will sort things out if they can. They definately need more stock though! D’uh!

Row, I promise you’ll love them! I’ve bought a couple of T-Shirts from them in the past and definitely would do again. I have a Crybaby one & a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one – because you know TMNT rocks
The shipping was really fast and the colours of the shirts were much brighter than they looked online. You did right to order 14 – they do fit small. I had to buy large in both (i’m normally a 14), and the TMNT is still pretty snug around my chest.

Hey Chica! Oh that’s good to hear *excited*. You know I had this debate with the boyf (and again last night cos there was a show about 80s kids TV) about the NINJA tutles, not the HERO turtles – turns out he was half right cos they changed the name in the UK from Ninja to Hero cos they’re gay – I prefer Ninja anyday!
Phew! I went for large in all my t’s and even a XL in the pink hoodie, as I think they are better when they are a bit loose. Oooohhh so exciting

Salma Hayek-esque chi-chis are the worst; they’re too much trouble (which Salma Hayek rightly deserves as she was stupid enough to buy hers at the surgeon’s office)! It’s very difficult to find a blouse that fits properly when you’re built like a blow-up doll.

That’s right – nothing buttons properly. Makes most day to day dressing very awkward indeed…
