Now, as adults, St. Patrick’s Day is all about going out to drink some Irish alcoholic beverages, while wearing green and saying you’re Irish or pretending to be Irish (or saying you’re 1/18th Irish)… all while wearing green.

If you don’t want to wear one of those tacky “Kiss me I’m Irish!” t-shirts from Old Navy, then what in the world are you going to wear on that fabulous day of the Irish? While it is probably too late to order it this year, I think this Roberto Cavalli Printed Chiffon Tunic would be a great option.

It is a watercolor print silk which makes it look like a piece of art (all good pieces of fashion should be!) The boat neck style shows of shoulders, so if you are trying to give the First Lady a run for her money in the arm department, this may be a good blouse for you. It is longest at the hips and is $1,750.

St. Patrick’s Day in Style

Image: Bauer-Griffin

This is one of the newer RC styles and it’s one of my favorite. It’s got beautiful metal detailing along the temple and front of the frame. Those are little snakes (Roberto Cavalli loves using snakes on their shades) along the temple.

The round, oversized frame looks great on her! This style also comes in other beautiful colors including silver-black with gold detailing and brown-silver with silver detailing. All of them feature gradient lenses.

You can order these from FramesDirect.com for $325.60.

More Green Gifts for St. Patty’s Day

Image: Zappos.com

The first pair, the RC 386S, have this beautiful gold snake detailing along the temples and along the lenses. Very chic, very classy and it really stands out on the white. These shades also have 100% UV protected gradient lenses.

The white is lovely, but you can order these in light ruthenium whith bordeaux lenses or you can snatch them in rose gold with green lenses. They are expensive, though. For a price of $484, you’ll get a protective case included from Zappos.

Up next is the RC 370S. These sunglasses have a square plastic frame with a little cut-out at the temples. This is commonly seen among other Roberto Cavalli sunglasses and majorly among Tom Ford styles. The circular gold detailing at the temple for these shades is really pretty.  Love it!

Again, if you like the design but white isn’t exactly your thing, try looking at the black with smoke lenses. Those ones are quite awesome. Instead of having gold highlighting like the ones on the right, you’ll get metal.  These are actually on 10% discount right now from Zappos. Order them now for $397.35.

Last, but certainly not least, is the RC 372S.  The most spectacular thing about this design is obviously the intriguing detail to the arms. These aviator-inspired shades feature a luxurious design with the RC signature jeweled at the temples. With adjustable nose pads, the sunglasses are a nice combination of metal and plastic frames.

Other colors for this design include shiny matte rhodium with smoke lenses and shiny rose gold with green lenses.

These are also on 10% sale and are available for purchase right now for $397.35.

Voila!  The classic, elegant wool trench coat.

I admit, it does have leopard print lining, but wouldn’t that look stunning on a blustery winter day?
