  • September 19th Worldwide Talk Like A Pirate Day, A-r-r-h! And Look Like One, Too!

    September 5th, 2006 by markdownmom

    Hoist the Jolly Roger and show your colors on this day, mateys!  One of the hottest fashion statements this year, Skull and Crossbones, are showing up in the trendiest locations.  Get ready to join the crew in the lastest pirate fashion and see if you walk the plank or just the runway!

     

    Target No respectable pirate’s cove would be acceptable without a skull or two.  Proclaim your dastardly intentions on September 19th with this full, terrorized skull all the way to Halloween.  Yours for $12.99!

     

     

    Delia’s a hot trendy place has a super Skull V-Zip Hoodie, perfect for Fall nights.  This comes in sizes XS-XL and is $39.50.  Or you may take a glance at a pink version with a more subtle skull theme for the same price.

    Walmart has several fantastic pieces in their  pirate booty to make this day ’shiver me timbers’ exciting.  This Junior Burnout l/sl ruched neckline in skull and crossbones pattern comes in four colors for a great price of  $12.87, sizes S-XL.

     

     All good pirates have a Dew Rag and here is a great one!  36" x 36" square in white/black , white/red, or black/white for $6.88 at  Walmart.  Because of the size this can be worn many ways including a sarong around the waist or top.  Better order this one online as MDM has found that stores have been soldout in some colors.
