Episode 19 of WatchCut’s “100 Years of Beauty” casts a timely focus on Ireland.

The video features a split-screen depiction of beauty in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.

In fact, let’s face it, the '90s are officially back, and those of us who haven’t already are itching to break out that exact plastic choker.

This St. Patrick's Day, celebrate with one of these classic Irish looks (except maybe for the '80s, as usual)!
