Sponsored Edition: Kiss Me, I'm Stylish

Irish car bombs? Fun until you hit 22. Green beer? Really fun until you turn 24. Your co-worker who always pinches you whether you wear green or not? Never fun.

You hate to sound like a curmudgeon, but you’re just a wee bit over St. Patty’s Day. You’re tired of being lepre-conned into going to some crowded bar where the only Guinness you’re likely to get is of the world record variety for most sweaty people around you at once.

Lucky for you, Royal Hawaiian Center is here to shamrock your world (or at least your St. Patty’s Day). In fact, if you see a rainbow coming from the Waikiki shopping center, it’s because on Saturday, the shopping will be pure gold. Not only will they have the Celtic Pipes and Drums of Hawaii performing in the Royal Grove, but with more than 100 shops offering everything from designer duds to of-the-moment accessories, you’ll undoubtedly find yourself feeling downright festive.

Stop into Zumiez and scoop up an awesome graphic tee from the 2012 GLMRKLLS collection or a funky watch from Neff. Then head over to Bebe to snag that party dress you’ve had your eye on, like the oh-so-hot pink and black Corset Colorblock Bandage Bodycon dress. With a frock like that, you may just feel like going out after all to one of the Center’s more than 20 restaurants and bars.

Your new look will be just what you need to turn your friends green with envy.

Who needs the luck of the Irish when you could have the luck of the stylish?

Royal Hawaiian Center is located in Waikiki at 2201 Kalakaua Avenue. The Pipes and Drums of Hawaii’s free performance is Saturday, 4:30 p.m. in the Royal Grove. For more information, call (808) 922-2299 or go to Royal Hawaiian Center’s website.
