Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day but since it also coincides with Tasty Tuesday I decided to showcase my green outfit today instead. Even though I don't look Irish, I have about 25% Irish blood running through my veins so it's important that I put my best green foot forward to celebrate this holiday. Currently I'm in St. Maarten so thankfully I'll be rocking a green sundress instead of this cold weathered outfit for the actual holiday but I couldn't resist showing off this amazing green blazer I bought a couple years ago in the Gap.
Not going to lie, this jacket is BRIGHT. It's basically neon and I always get so many comments when I wear it because it definitely makes me stand out in a crowd. However, its such a bold fun piece that I'm so happy it made a place in my wardrobe. Since the blazer is obviously the conversation piece of the outfit I decided to stick with a black and white canvas to make the blazer the centerpiece.
I'm not sure if St. Maarten really celebrates St. Patricks Day but tomorrow we are going to a Mardi Gras event that involves plenty of street vendors, live entertainment and a parade. I think it will be fun to experience a non-traditional St. Patricks Day celebration. I'll let you all know how it is!
