Yes
There is no particular tradition about wearing jackets and caps on St. Patrick's Day in Ireland. Some do and many don't. Those that do would often wear jackets and caps on other days too.
they were green
No, But if you wear a pin that says "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" then yes. And if you don't wear green on St.Patrick's day...You will be shot by a pack of wolves trained to handle guns
There is no part of Ireland where it is illegal to wear green on St. Patrick's Day.

what did people wear in saint augustine
Many children will make a special effort to wear something green, but there is no particular trend, so children will wear any colour, just like they would on any other day.
All green. That's about it. Green top, green trousers, or to look like those littleLeprechaun people, wear a tighter green top, a green knee length skirt with a gold belt tied around it, and green tights.
St.Patrick's day is the celebration of st.Patrick converting the Irish to christians, and the symbol of Ireland is green.
they wear green for st patricks day
Because you wont get pinched and so you can have good luck. Saint Patrick isn't associated with the color green, but he is the patron saint of Ireland, and Ireland's national color is green, as is half of its national flag. So people like to wear green to celebrate the festival of one of the Saints of Ireland. Saint Brigid, another Saint of Ireland, isn't especially linked to the color green, but her day - February 1st - is frequently symbolized by a cross (not a crucifix-shape) made of roughly-woven rushes (a sort of dried grass), or straw.
