Heidi and Spencer Are a Little Late For the St. Patty's Day Party

PopSugar — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:30:34 -0700

Breaking News: Heidi and Spencer were spotted hanging out in LA, and not attached at the lips! Monday was the day to go green this week, but they were feeling festive right into Tuesday. Later, the attention-loving couple managed to stay under the radar sneaking in to catch the live taping of American Idol. Apparently they weren't getting into the fun with the rest of the crowd including Posh and her boys, but maybe they just agreed that Beatles night No. 2 was a little disappointing.

St Patrick's Day - How They Celebrated!

PopSugarUK — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 05:30:00 -0700

After all the St Patrick's Day parties I expect there are a few sore heads around ... especially if you started on Sunday like Roisin Murphy! The former Moloko singer rocked out at London's Trafalgar Square in a number of outfits - I love the Little Red Riding Hood vibe. Former Sugababe (and proud owner of that leg tattoo) Mutya Buena got Belfast bopping on the day itself with her Custom House Square concert.

Jameson Live was the place to be in London if you wanted to rub shoulders with the lovely Will Young and Life on Mars' John Simm, but if you wanted crowds then you would have enjoyed the parade in Dublin, which attracted 650,000 people including Ireland's President Mary McAleese and Grammy-nominated singer Moya Brennan.

Fab Finding Follow Up: Sassy St. Patty's Day!

FabSugar — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 12:03:33 -0700

Happy St. Patty's Day! Now I'm not Irish but I always enjoy an excuse to dress festively and make a toast, or three. I hope you're all dressing festively today and, please, be safe!

I started you off with these sassy Bottega Veneta Woven T-Strap Platforms, $960. Ok, I know the heel is hefty but they look comfortable enough for a night on the town and while they aren't green I thought they were a hue that would complement green nicely.

I asked you all to go Fab Finding for a fun Saturday night St. Patty's ensemble! I was thinking some hot cropped jeans (to show off the shoes!), a green top, jacket, shoulder bag and subtle jewelry . To see all the St Patrick's Day finds click here. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, found by zeldaf is super cute with this C&C CALIFORNIA Star Print Tank in Green/White and Kooba Elisha Tote. Although I would be quite nervous some drunkard would spill on that pretty white bag!

Come Party With Me: St. Patrick's Day - Invites

partysugar — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 07:58:19 -0700

St. Patrick's Day is this Saturday night and I am excited. I love St. Patrick's Day for three simple reasons: (1) I am of Irish descent so I celebrate my heritage. (2) My dad's name is Patrick so I celebrate his Saint's Day. (3) My half birthday is March 16 (the day before St. Patrick's) so I celebrate being a half year older.

I also love St. Patrick's Day because its one of those rare occasions where everyone likes to go out and par-tee! This year it falls on a Saturday night which makes it an opportune moment to host a dinner. I'm going to invite over a group of friends for some food before we all head out to the bars together. I've get less than a week to throw this shenanigan together, so I can't waste another minute - I need to make the invitations. To see how I make my shamrock shaped green invites, read more

St. Patrick's Day is all about the color green so I am going to use shades of green on the invite and in my decorating scheme. Use my idea as inspiration to create your own invitations. To assemble this invite you will need:

green cardstock
green printer paper (preferably in a different tone of green than the cardstock)
St. Patrick's Day green shimmery garland (I got mine at Michaels)
scissors
pencil
gluestick
shamrock stickers (optional for the envelopes you send them in)
a print out of this shamrock image
computer and printer

To make this invite:

Start by cutting out the shamrock to create a shamrock stencil.

Fold the green cardstock in half from top to bottom. Trace the shamrock shape onto the cardstock using the pencil putting on edge of the stencil along the folded edge of the cardstock.

Cut out the shape of the shamrock being careful to leave part of the fold. You are creating a four leafed clover shaped card.

Erase any pencil marks that remain from tracing the stencil.

Gently pull the green clovers off of the garland.

Glue the shamrocks onto the front and back of the card in a scattered chaotic pattern.

Set aside and move to your computer.

Create a new word document and drag and drop the four leaf clover image into the document. Align the image to rest behind the text. Rotate the image perpendicularly so it is the same shape as your card.
Insert a text box with no line or fill on top of the clover image. Write the details of your party in a fun friendly manner in the text box. Here's what I wrote in Bradley Hand ITC TT-Bold text, size 12:

PartySugar cordially invites you to a
St. Patrick’s Day Shenanigan!

7 o’clock dinner
10 o’clock pub crawl

PartySugar’s House, San Francisco
RSVP 415.555.555
Please Wear Something Green

Be sure to ask guests to please wear green.

Delete the clover from the text. (You only had the clover there to ensure that the text would fit inside the clover).

Print out the information on the green printer paper.

Trace the shape of the clover on the text page. Cut out.

Glue inside the card.

Add any special extras to jazz it up, I put 2 more shimmer shamrocks inside the invite.

Send in an envelope addressed in your best fancy handwriting in a gold gel pen garnished with a clover sticker.

Planning a St. Patty's Day party? Please tell me about your invites below! Keep reading all this week because I'm hosting one spectacular party and I'm taking you along for the ride.
