Luck of the Stylish: 5 St Patrick’s Day Outfit Ideas

St Patrick’s Day celebrations and the opportunity to ‘get your green on’ have just got bigger and bigger over recent years. It was originally only celebrated in Ireland with religious services and feasts in honour of St. Patrick, one of Ireland’s patron saints then it evolved into a more secular celebration of Irish culture and now it’s a fully blown green-fashion-fest with a side of Guinness thrown in for good measure. 

When we say ‘thrown’ we’re not far off the mark because the typical Paddy’s Day revelries can get out of hand pretty quickly if our gal gang is anything to go by. That’s why you need to ensure you have your St. Patrick’s Day outfits sorted well in advance of the crucially Irish and STYLISH March date. You can then concentrate on sampling all the fun the greenest day of the year has to offer without worrying why you’re the only one dressed in a ‘Kiss me I’m Irish’ t-shirt you found in the local charity shop.

 

Green dresses are the ultimate in St. Patrick’s Day outfits!

At EGO we have the very best selection of St. Patrick’s Day outfits; there’s no need to look elsewhere, ‘to be sure!’ Let’s start as we mean to go on and get to grips with the girl squad celebration to end all celebrations. You’ve got it! The bottomless brunch is a legend on its own lunchtime. Yes, it can get ‘cray’, yes it’s in town, and no you don’t need to find a four-leaf clover to ensure you have ticked all the green outfit boxes. From subtle mossy hues to the boldest of emerald greens it’s all covered by EGO.

If you want to channel the sexy leprechaun look (and who are we to deny you the privilege?) then a bold start would be a sultry, textured green dress. We’ve just snagged the Open Back Green Halterneck Dress because it’s easy to dance in, creates an impressive entrance, and is sassy enough to wear throughout the year. Double bubble. 

Perhaps something a little shorter and slinkier is your calling card? Look no further than the subtle olive hues of the Cowl Neck Open Back Mini Dress. Shaking your stuff in this glam number will be totally shamrock ‘n’ roll. Just add some striking heels  – we are living for gold accessories at the moment so we’ve just added the Square Toe Strappy Heels to our basket. Perhaps add a gold clutch like the Knotted Textured Leif Bag and you are all set!

The ‘green’ day about town

If brunchin’ with the girls isn’t your scene and you would rather get out and about in town to see what revelry is happening in the city centre you might want some warmer clothes. When walking around in town, comfort is king so you’ll find your ‘end of the rainbow’ in some chunky boots or chunky trainers. The High Heel Boot in Black Faux Leather is an absolute classic and the wide, squared-off heel means you can march around town for hours on end without getting sore feet. 

Perhaps you would prefer to keep your accessories green for the celebratory day. Why not snag a pair of these uber-comfortable Faux Leather Chunky Black Trainers? You could whip out the laces and swap them for a green pair and then accessorise with some gorgeously quirky headwear like the Oversized Hat in Green Faux Fur. You will stand out in any kind of parade with this St. Patrick’s outfit, and you’ll have the added advantage that your mates will always know where to find their very own leprechaun. 

Steal the scene in head-to-toe green outfits for St. Patrick’s Day

We hear you. You want to be green from the top of your newly-died-green hair to your newly-painted-green toenails. It’s game on. When thinking about St Patrick’s Day outfit ideas, then EGO has you covered in all the right places. And by that, we mean that you can still look sexy AF whilst glorifying the gathering with your entirely green game.

Let’s start with the feet. If the weather has started to get a little better by mid-March you could wear the Green Faux Suede Sling Backs paired with the Green Low Rise Cargo Trousers and topped with the Green Denim Bandeau Top. This look will be a show-stopper in its own right but for maximum make-an-entrance points then add the Distressed Green Crop Jacket. Those green eyes of envy will all be on you, we promise.

St. Patrick’s Day outfit ideas, but make them classy

So, you want to give a nod to all things green, in honour of both Saint Patrick himself and your natural party vibe, but you want to keep it strictly sleek and sultry. We’ve got the brief. No tip-to-toe green looks for you. You are subtle and understated so why not simply throw on a delicious and sophisticated Button Detail Belted Trench Coat in Khaki? This is then, your one artful nod to the shamrock. You could wear a simple black dress underneath your sexy green trench and add glistening gold accessories like the Tori Woven Bag for maximum car-to-bar impact. Oh, and don’t forget a poppin’ pair of green heels!

 

Green accessories for the win

Opting for green accessories on St. Patrick’s Day is a great way to show your allegiance to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow without having to think too hard about St Patrick’s Day outfits.  The Flower Detail Bracelet is incredibly intricate and sophisticated and offers the opportunity to show your keen, green spirit in a very subtle way. Or the Woven Grab Ba in Green Faux Leather is on-trend and adds a real pop of colour to even the most neutral of looks. 

What if you’re simply slouching at home but want the world (or at least your immediate family) to know that you haven’t forgotten your inner leprechaun? Well then, a pair of sliders with a nod to the green trend might be just the rainbow riches you have been looking for. We love the Playoff Flat Slide Sandal in Khaki because they are low-fi enough for a day in the house, but if you need to nip to the shops because the girls decide to descend on your place and you’re all out of Guinness then these shoes are comfy yet uber-chic. Win win!
