BUCCANEERS
This season, the basics are back.

Heave those day-glo fabrics overboard; the word in pyrate fashion these days is simple.

Go casually elegant in linen, rigged in nautical stripes - hipper than ever.

Pillage with pride in breathable cotton, now in newer, stain-resistant colours.

"Show off what ye gots" in sleek pants cropped tight, closer than your last shave (whenever that was).

For the burly buccaneer, go overboard - fashion cut huge never fails to please, in barnacle brown, seaweed greens.

MMMM! Simple never looked so salty!

NEW BOOTY

Be those storm clouds, or cumulus? Wait, aren't they the same thing?
Wonder no longer, with CLOUD FORMATION FLASH CARDS! The newest thing from PIrate's Press, these handy buggers are colourful and informative and - best yet - waterproof!
 
Accessorise!

Big belts are in big - the bigger , the better , from the Ivory Coast to the runways of Cape Horn.

BUT BELTS AREN'T ALL!!

Going to shore? Got to hide that bad headshave, or that nasty bit o' lice?

Headscarves cover a multitiude of scars and sins.
Now in fabrics funky to fabulous, you have no excuse to wash your hair!

 
HAIR: To Tar or Not to Tar? Readers weigh in
SEZ AMISH PETE: "Oh, I always tie firecrackers in my 'dreads, like -Blackbeard? Bluebeard?- whoever - did. The ladies love it! Oh, and when you're going into battle? Totally terrifies the enemy."
SEZ BERMUDA CHARLIE: "What's wrong with a bandanna? Don't ask, don't tell, far as I'm concerned. Though I do tar my moustache-tips. Keeps 'em tidy."
SEZ JUAN O' WAR: "Bald be beautiful, arr!"
