Friday's Fancies: Week 8


Welcome to another edition of Friday's Fancies! I created an Ireland-themed outfit a few weeks ago for {av}'s "Let's Fly Away" link-up, for which I found these awesome green jeans. Of course I had to use them again for a St. Patrick's Day outfit! This time, I decided to do a one piece, two ways post (a la my Valentine's Day outfit), so here's two different ways to wear green jeans this weekend during your St. Paddy's Day partying:

St. Paddy's Day

For each outfit, I picked a fun spring purse/clutch because I was afraid the sweaters I chose made the outfits seem too autumn-y. I'm also a sucker for tacky holiday jewelry, hence the shamrock earrings on the left. I picked a gold Claddagh ring this week to match the earrings, and I chose some more costume-y pieces for the evening jewelry. Finally, I went with flats for the evening because—let's be real—you're going to want to be as close to the ground as possible.

See more details about each piece below:

I like the change from day to night! And very clever of you to add in the Claddagh ring :) Reminds me that I should probably wear mine this weekend.

That sequin sweater is beyond amazing. I need to make a friend in london who I can ship things too. OR, H&M needs to ship internationally

LOVE your picks! Those clover earrings are so cute. :) We also went with a day outfit & a night outfit centered around green jeans. Great minds think alike!

I LOVE that your outfit isn't totally overwhelming with green! I love St. Patrick's Day, but I hate being all green - I guess it's just not my color! The little pop of green is such a great accessory to those shirts - LOVE it!
