While not everyone has a wide assortment of green attire in their closets, exceptions are often made for St. Patrick's Day on March 17, when parties and special events call for a true showing of the Irish colors. Many stores carry St. Patrick's Day celebration items like shamrock buttons or hats, but there are a select few in the Bay Area where you can find a wider range of clothing and other accessories. No matter what your taste, there are places where you can celebrate your St. Patrick's Day with a "wearin' of the green."
