So kiddies, in the spirit of St. Pattie's Day, we've decided to go with an Irish theme this month. Now, some styles will quite obviously not follow what is considered to be the 'norm' in Irish fashion, and some of these will even make you ponder 'where did she come up with that outfit for an Irish theme?' But I assure you, all of the following picks are based on either Irish tradition or today's trends. So, sit back and enjoy the very different styles that IMVU has to offer!
EMO – Well, I can personally say that 'Irish' is not a style that comes to mind when I think of St. Patrick's day, but surprisingly enough, I was able to find an outfit that I thought was perfect for this fashion sub-genre. Oop's 'Kiss ME I'm Irish' fit is a perfect little number when you're just not in the mood to be bothered with all the festivities and yet still want to show your Irish pride...but not too much ;) Match it with a pair of green Monster Boots and you're all set!
URBAN – While you may not associate 'urban' with 'Irish' you might just be surprised with how many options there are when the two come together. So you want to wear something hip, trendy, stylish, and probably more on the sexy side, right? But you also want to show Irish pride, but don't know where to look? Well, Jombo07 has just what you need! He has just what you're looking for in his 'Green Top & LeatherSkirt' outfit. This is something you could wear to the St. Paddy's Day parade in the afternoon and then hit the club in that night. And he even has the perfect green leather boots to match in his catalog.
GOTH – Ok, I'll be the first to admit that when I think of Irish fashion, green comes to mind. But why? Who says that you have to wear green to show your Irish pride? Well, I decided to step outside of the box for this genre and found a sexy little outfit with a dark twist. TaintedLove2004 offers the perfect style for what I was looking for with her '~IrishLolita1~' outfit. This red, black, and gray dress is just what every Irish goth needs. Pair it with the matching shoes, also available in her catalog, and you're all set!
VINTAGE – For this month I wanted to include at least one traditional Irish outfit, and the vintage category gives me the perfect opportunity to do so. Why not go back to the Celtic era and dress up in a more themed piece? Aerliinniel's 'Irish Gown' gives you a more traditional look. With the lace and bell sleeves, this piece is perfect for paying homage to the olden days.
ELEGANCE – Have a ball or big party to go to and you want to wear something in the Irish tradition? You want to look both stunning and classic? Well CaraLolita has just what you're looking for. Her 'Irish Princess Gown' is simply breathtaking! You'll be donning the more traditional emerald green color in a gorgeous floor length silk ball gown, compete with a train.
CASUAL – So you're looking for something simple, yet cute and flirty to wear this St. Patrick's day? You want something that you can wear anywhere? Well, look no further than Singulares718 'Irish Dress.' The name says it all. This fit is a cute little green and black dress. Depending on the shoes and accessories that you wear with it, it's perfect for just about every occasion.
FURRY - While there are many different types of furry skin, why not give the month an Irish twist? You could just wear your regular furry skin and put on an Irish themed outfit, but why stop there? Why not go all out this month and be an Irish Furry? Don't have a clue what I'm talking about? Well, just look for lAdiES0UljA's 'Lucky Fur' and you'll be instantly transformed into a mythical creature with Irish roots :D
ANIME – Ok, I know what you're thinking, 'how can you put anime and Irish together?' Correct? Well, it's actually not as hard as even I would have imagined. To start, you'll want to get Mechaddollie's 'Senshi Green Skirt' and matching 'Senshi Green Top.' But don't stop there! Pair this outfit with some matching animated Monster Boots or a pair of green thigh high boots and you're ready!
PUNK - So you want to rock out while rocking Irish pride? Why not go with Glam's 'Green Black Crop'. Just grab the moose and a pair of combat boots and you're all set.
