November has just begun and for the common partyphile that means two things: it is the start of a season of hardcore partying and major (gift) shopping. Because of that, I have decided to help you out by giving you a short list of things that you could give to your partyphile friend. These are gift ideas that any partyphile would enjoy and would be delighted to receive.
I know you may argue, but I still insist on giving this wish list really early just because I want to. Also, it would give you more time to save up for the items on the list (and purchase it before Christmas) because we all know you blow your cash on alcohol and too much over-priced food. Third, I am hoping that somebody close to me would read this article and realize that this is actually a list of things I really want for myself and buy me some of these stuff for my birthday which happens on the 7th of next month (giving the list out this early gives them time to buy me all these gorgeous stuff). So here is the list of lust-worthy partyphile treats:
JanSport SuperBreak Collection
JanSport’s new collection is for Spring 2012 but it will be available in the country during the Holiday season. The collection comes with everything we have always loved about JansSport bags: straight-cut padded shoulder straps (to keep your shoulders comfy even when carrying heavy loads), one large main compartment, a front utility pocket with an organizer to keep your stuff tidy and handy, a web haul handle, and a padded back. What makes it perfect for the partyphile? This new collection actually comes in NEON colors; perfect for any partyphile who wants to stand out in school, while travelling, or just walking around the city. The collection features a mix of plains and prints that are sure to accent whatever ensemble you don. I particularly like the neon green line just because it’s extra bright, extra-perky, and extra fun—just like a proper partyphile! These new bags just beg for attention and are perfect for one who likes to stand out and wear his/her personality on his sleeve. The Spring 2012 NEON colors are definitely the bag-must haves for stylish but utilitarian partyphiles and would make for the perfect Christmas gift for Yuletide 2011.
North Palm Hotel and Garden
This brand new hotel in Davao City is located at Andreliz Building Km 7, Lanang and is definitely one-of-a-kind. The hotel features an actual garden with the foliage mixing in seamlessly with the hotel’s design and is the perfect gift for a partyphile who wants to relax or have an instant vacation without having to leave the city. You can ask North Palm if they sell gift certificates or simply book a night for your partyphile friend. Why? Because a night at a posh hotel is perfect after a tiring night of hard partying. As added bonuses, North Palm features a 32-inch Cable LCD TV and WiFi connection in all of their spacious rooms. The hotel features relaxing views of a gazebo, tropical plants, flowering plants, manicured lawns, and a fountain. Basically, staying at North Palm is like sleeping amidst a beautiful garden; an experience all to itself. Any partyphile would definitely appreciate a stay at North Palm.
Sugar Cookies from I Love Mousse
I Love Mousse is another Facebook enterprise that specializes on cookies and other desserts. What makes their sugar cookies special is the fact that you can personalize it however you wish. All you have to do is choose a design, shell out 150 bucks per dozen, and meet Wilcon Yan, the entrepreneur behind I Love Mousse to get your orders. I’ve asked I Love Mousse to create Halloween cookies, Confessions of a Partyphile cookies (disco balls and martini glasses), and Angry Birds cookies and they all pleasantly surprised me. The cookies taste familiar and homey and have the perfect ratio of frosting and sugar cookie. Order from I Love Mousse by searching for the name on Facebook.
