St. Patrick´s Day outfits

Some "new" clothes on Stardoll are now avaiable which are perfect for St. Patrick´s Day. The green dress only cost 8 dollars. Use the 1 stardollar accessoires (hat & belt) to pimp it up. You can use your own boots or if you havnt one, buy them for 3 stardollars. So is your doll already dressed up in green????

So, why is it celebrated on March 17th? One theory is that that is the day that St. Patrick died. Since the holiday began in Ireland, it is believed that as the Irish spread out around the world, they took with them their history and celebrations. The biggest observance of all is, of course, in Ireland. With the exception of restaurants and pubs, almost all businesses close on March 17th. Being a religious holiday as well, many Irish attend mass, where March 17th is the traditional day for offering prayers for missionaries worldwide before the serious celebrating begins.
