Summary
Don't get pinched!
While some people choose to go all out on St. Patrick's Day and dress as leprechauns or green fairies, most of us will pick out a few green items to spice up our wardrobe. You didn't see these looks on the runways at New York's Fashion Week, but on St. Patrick's Day, they're just the ticket to get you noticed and avoid the dreaded pinch for not wearing green. SHAMROCK SUNGLASSES: St. Patrick's Day is one of the few days it's acceptable to wear your sunglasses at night without looking like a poser. I've seen people wearing green- tinted aviators or other fashionable glasses, but why not go all out and rock the shamrocks? Also awesome -- "beer goggle" glasses. GREEN BEADS: Since Mardi Gras and St. Patrick's Day fall so close together, it's only natural to extend the fun of colored beads another week or so. Although not an official St. Patty's Day tradition, we believe the same rules of bead-giving apply to girls drunk on Guinness as girls drunk on Hurricanes. Also awesome -- green beaded necklace with a shot glass on the end. You never lose your cup! CLEVER T-SHIRTS AND BUTTONS: The options are endless to express your sense of humor on St. Patrick's Day, from the classic "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" and "Irish Today, Hungover Tomorrow" to a personal favorite, "Does this clover make me look Drunk?" Also awesome -- Green suspenders to pin your St. Patty's flair on. SHAMROCK BOXERS OR PAJAMA PANTS: Nothing says I'm committed to drinking all day than wearing your comfy drinking pants. There is no need to dress nice on St. Patty's Day. Also awesome -- Vintage Zubaz. Elastic waistband provides plenty of give when you eat too much corned beef and cabbage. AND FINALLY A ST. PATRICK'S DAY FASHION DO AND DON'T: Ladies, DON'T wear high heels. A broken ankle will ruin your fun and the fun of the friend who has to carry you to Miami Valley Hospital. Guys, DO wear a shirt. Although the idea of painting your chest hair green may seem awesome, the person stuck in a crowded beer line next to you doesn't think so. Also it's Ohio and it's March, which means it's cold and you're pale.See the full content of this document
