LET'S TALK ABOUT: SAINT KIDD


As I've mentioned before I love finding new stores online so this is again a post about one of them. Saint Kidd is something I've been loving for months now. The reason is Dougie Poynter, a founder of this brand and a member of McFly... yeah, it's McFly again. 

So here's a story that inspired Dougie to create this clothing line: It all started with pirates, especially one pirate, William Kidd. William was a privateer hired by English lords to steal money from pirates and the Spanish. Once, he and his crew robbed a ship called The Quedagh Merchant. Unfortunately it turned out the ship was owned by... the British. So before going back to England to clear his name he buried his treasure. After spending a year in solitary confinement he was sentenced to death. I think it's a very nice back story of such a nice collection. What Saint Kidd offers are t-shirts and accessories, all pirate related. 

Here are t-shirts that I chose for this post - my six favourite:





I gotta say my favourite of my favourite is a Butterfly Skull t-shirt. Which one is yours?

  6. I love the Crossing Seas one, but I like the Butterfly Skull one as well. I actually bought a butterfly skull shirt while in Paris last year from H&M so that may be why that one isn't my favorite. I already have one like it haha!

    New follower! Also have started my own blog and would love for you to check it out :)
