"Alright, the last step in our crazy leprechaun costume is having a cool, over-the-top bow tie. This is a nice, extra addition, basically between our green shirt and our now fully leprechaun face. So, this is, you know again, something very easy to get. You can get small ones, matte finished ones; in this case I have sequin patterns over the bow tie, which go out, and they also, it's nice because they capture the light and really reflect it a lot. So that's a nice little effect to basically draw more attention back to your leprechaun costume. But you can also do it smaller. You can have like the small bow ties, with the, like the little matte green that, you know, powder out. That's no problem either. But just in my professional opinion, my expert opinion, I recommend going over the top. Again, this is not just a leprechaun costume. This is a crazy leprechaun costume. So, make people come in to a room, and like the first thing they're going to see is your very, very big, large green bow tie."
