Here’s the thing. You don’t need to be Irish to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. But you do need to be ready for a party on 17th March – and perhaps a pint of Guinness or three!

If you do indulge in the black stuff, you won’t be alone. An estimated 13 million pints of Guinness are drunk worldwide every St Patrick’s Day.

You should also be ready to go green in your fashion choices. Not convinced? Legend has it that if you don’t wear green, a leprechaun will jump out and pinch you.

But before you run for the hills, rest assured you don’t need the luck of the Irish to pull together the perfect St Patrick’s Day outfit. Green is far more wearable than you might realise. Think less leprechaun and more dazzling Emerald Isle with your wardrobe choices, and you’ll stand out in the sea of green for all the right reasons.

Until then, we’re here to share some of our top picks for the ultimate evergreen St Paddy’s Day look.



Get your green on

For a practical approach to St Patrick’s Day style, this understated blazer by Vila will take you from work straight to the party. Pair with jeans and white tee to show you mean business. Or for more of an easy breezy vibe, how about this puffed sleeve, relaxed fit printed dress? Team with chunky black boots and enjoy the craic.


Shamrock-inspired accessories

Give any outfit instant St Patrick’s pizzazz with this crossbody satchel by Valentino Bags. Made from luxurious faux leather, it’s the perfect place to store your hip flask of Irish whiskey. If the sun is shining on 17th March, why not view life through a (green) lens? Try these Ray-Ban Clubmaster sunglasses for size.
