Question

Here is my current css for the circular image circle

.circle-image{
    width: 64px;
    height: 64px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    background-size: contain;
    background-position: center;
    background-image: url("/assets/img/dashboard/img-stdn.png");
    display: block;
}

You can use the pseudo-element to create a triangle of the speech bubble, as shown in the demo below.

This works with the help skewon the square and positions it absolutewithin the relatively-position element of the container.

Alternatively, this can be achieved with a single element if you could use background-imagean image tag instead.

.circ {
  height: 100px;
  width: 100px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  bordeR: 5px solid tomato;
  position: relative;
}
.circ img {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  border-radius: 50%;
}
.circ:before{
  content:"";
  position:absolute;
  top:10%;
  right:0;
  height:20px;
  width:20px;
  background:tomato;
  transform:skewX(55deg) skewY(10deg);
  }

<div class="circ">
  <img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/lCp2t.png" />
</div>
