“If you’re in it, fuel it, if you soil it, wash it and if you drink it, you most certainly DO NOT drive it.”

WHAT IS THE IdEAl PARTY cAR?

There are two extremes on the party scale and quite a few in between. However this month we’ll focus on the ultimate party goer seeing as not everyone

is content delicately sipping on sweet red wine whilst listening to soft music playing in the background, curled up on the sofa reading Jane Eyre. Let’s satisfy the cravings of the extreme party goer and people getting their collective drink on by taking the party on the road – with a designated driver, of course.

Upon deciding to paint the town red it is always important to know a few things that will catapult you to VIP status just by the ride you drive. First off, never arrive at a party alone if you want to be considered important. Those seeking VIP status have to confidently arrive fashionably late and in style. Tipping the guard at the gate in advance goes a long way in getting that coveted parking spot, just saying.

The ideal party car needs to be sufficiently roomy in order to fit your entire posse. Nothing promotes upchucking after a night of drinking more than cramming all six of your friends in a small stuffy car that smells like a wet dog’s feet. An added bonus would be a moon roof or convertible top out. They’re perfect for drunken merrymakers who

wish to anoint the night with their declarations of love to passersby. It is also a good source of ventilation and reduces chances of acid attacks on your car’s paint from at-speed vomitus.

Music is an integral part of clubbing which is why it is important to have an acoustics audio system with built in speakers. This makes for a perfect vehicle for anyone seeking a mobile boom box. (For you kids, a “boom box” is something your parents used to carry around on their shoulders, blasting MC Hammer throughout the neighborhood.)

It is important to know that there are a few cardinal rules that go with a night out. These rules allow any party goer to enjoy a night out with friends anytime, anywhere. If you’re in it, fuel it, if you soil it, wash it and if you drink it, you most certainly DO NOT drive it.

Party cars have to pull double duty too. They can’t just party all the time, a party car also has to be a working car at least until the sun goes down. So if you are not happy with your current motor, check out Pigiame for a wide variety of cars that suit all your party needs at the best prices in town.

“Your lifestyle and how your prospective home fits into it, should be the main consideration

in your decision to buy a home.”

Choosing a home that suits your lifestyle and fits your personality isn’t an easy thing to do but is an important factor when considering a move. A home that is able to accommodate the different schedules and lifestyles of all your family members or roommates could be a challenge to find but worth holding out for. Finding the best location for yourself is vital whether you are looking for a downtown high-rise condo, or a secluded abode on the outskirts of the city.Location is everything. If the thought of sitting in traffic or switching matatus to complete your daily commute to and from work gives you a migraine, you had better have a pharmacy close by if you’re willing to sacrifice location for rent. If you love walking to shops, boutiques, or other social amenities don’t move into a new suburb construction just because you’re able to afford a three bedroom maisonette no one will ever see cause it’s in the middle of nowhere.

Your lifestyle and how your prospective home fits into it, should be the main consideration in your decision to buy a home. There are plenty of properties in convenient estates that allow you to stay connected and enjoy the finer things in life like fine dining at exotic restaurants such as Under the Radar.

After eating in every night you can treat yourself at the end of every month by going to out for dinner in a posh garden restaurant and bar. Under The Radar is inarguably Nairobi’s best kept secret perfect for steak-eaters. It has adventurous new flavors and several delicious pizza options made by amazingly talented chefs.

Imagine eating a tasty, tender pepper steak or mouthwatering pepper chicken accompanied with rice, French fries or mashed potatoes and their salad of the day. With a simple driving or cab home, just two minutes away. This could be a part of your lifestyle at the end of every month if you find the perfect home in the right location.

Buying a sofa should be an investment. This is because they’re usually kept for a number of years. Therefore, the sofa you purchase might as well be the best money can buy. Here are a few tips to consider:

Size: Your sofa should not be too big for your living space. If you get a big bulky sofa and you have a small living room, it will make your space feel smaller and crowded than it actually is. You also shouldn’t get a tiny sofa for a big room. It just looks misplaced. Get furniture that fits your space. Measure out where the sofa will be placed and use those dimensions when you go shopping.

Uses: How you use the sofa will depend on the type of sofa you get. Will you take a nap on it? If so, you might want to get a sofa with more depth than the average sofa. Will you entertain a lot? If so, you might want to get the 3 seater and 2 seater combination as opposed to a corner seat. This will allow your guests to socialize easily.

Workmanship: Find out what kind of frame is being used. Hardwood is usually best as your seat it lasts for longer. It is also important to find out what type of filling is being used. This will determine how firm or how soft your sofa will be. When choosing the fabric, go for high options that don’t fray or wear out with time.

Colour: Go for a colour that is timeless, preferably a neutral colour. They never go out of style. If you want a pop of colour, simply add colourful cushions or throws. They are inexpensive, and if you get bored, you can simply replace them

Door size: This is very important. You don’t want to buy a sofa and it can’t get through the door. Measure the door.

Gone are the days when you needed the latest woofer, 16 speakers and a few thousands to host the perfect,

sound enriched party.

These days, a laptop, any laptop, is enough for you to jam the latest hits throughout the night. Music requests are even easily handled by a simple search through YouTube or some of the more popular music hosting sites online.

Wondering how to turn your computer into a DJ’s turntable equivalent at the touch of a button? Check out these simple alternatives you can use:

Portable Bluetooth speakers: These have become the latest music must-haves for audophiles and party animals alike. They are light, tiny, and portable and emanate perfect bass-filled sound, loud enough to fill entire rooms, in this case, your party centre. They’re inexpensive and their size allows you to place them anywhere; by the pool, on a bar top, even outside if you’re hosting a barbecue.

Awesome playlist: Now you’ve got the sound,

your party will not be complete until you

have the perfect playlist. Sure, you’re into

rock music but not everyone can listen to

your taste of music all night long. There are

great sites online that have a music mixes

spanning the latest billboard 100 hits to

the best of the 90’s. Download one of these

before your guests arrive and impress them

with your wide taste in music.

Internet (for those random song requests): You’ll get these in plenty. There’ll always be something about the song currently playing that reminds someone of a song they just have to hear right now. They’ll even grab your computer and quickly search through the internet for it, stop your current super

awesome playlist and have it play about 3 time just in case you and your guests missed it. Though annoying, it is good to equip your computer with a healthy amount of bundles, you never know those random songs may just take your party up a notch.

Power: You know you’re doomed when your laptop goes off and your power cable is nowhere to be found. The silence thereafter is guaranteed to turn your all-nighter into a 2 hour get-together. Keep your power cable close and plugged in. Remember, close and plugged in.

The marriage between fashion and sports is peaking worldwide as internationally renowned designers

such as Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen have begun to partner with sporting brands to release new lines. Not only does it open them up to a new market, but it also raises their diversity at a time when business in the fashion industry has become pretty cutthroat. Famous sportsmen from David Beckham, Roger Federer, Russell Westbrook and Cristiano Ronaldo have taken the fashion industry by storm. Ranging from dapper to fashion-forward, these sportsmen have successfully transcended both worlds and proven that just because you are going to get a little sweaty in the field doesn’t mean you can’t look good. Kenyan sportsmen are not too far off from this trend and here are some notable trailblazers.

Dennis OliechOne of the most accomplished football players in the country, Dennis Oliech has now added fashion into his portfolio of investments. After living in the world’s fashion capital, Paris, for several years this sportsman recently launched his first clothing store, Veron Fashion Detail in Nairobi, fashion house which samples different styles from Paris allowing Nairobi fashionistas an exciting assortment to try out.

The Kenya Rugby TeamWho can ever forget the creative collaboration between the country’s leading fashion house and the Kenya Rugby team? At the launch of its menswear line, KikoRomeo enlisted the help of Kenya’s rugby players who enthralled the audience as they paraded down the catwalk in African shirts and suits.

Gor MahiaGor Mahia is synonymous with fashion. Walk into any stadium where they are playing and a sea of green will greet you. This football club has a fiercely loyal fan base that religiously purchases the club’s apparel in a show of support. Even local musician, Rabbit, could not resist the sportsmen and endorsed the team with Gor Mahia T-shirts which

came under his clothing label. Hot on his heels is an Italian sports apparel company that just sealed a three year sponsorship to have the players fitted in authentic Joma sportswear. This will include fans replica jerseys, fans jackets, training kits, tracksuits and other merchandise.

The Maasai Cricket WarriorsTraditional whites are the norm in any cricket field except when the Maasai Cricket Warriors are playing. Defying the set standards for a noble cause, these sportsmen are quite a sight to behold as they take on the old-age sport in their tribal attire. Their intention is not only to show off their skills but call attention to the troubling issues they face within their community.

I find that knowing thyself will save you a deal of trouble especially when it comes to going out for a bit of fun. It’s useful to know what kind of partygoer you are so that you don’t end up spending cash you don’t have for an event you will not enjoy. There are different attitudes partygoers when it comes to partying so which one are you?

1. The MastermindAt the top of the list we have the person who organizes every party you’ve ever been to. This is the person who rallies up the troops through Facebook events, texts or WhatsApp. There is always that one person that is instrumental in getting the gang together and is usually best suited to the social butterflies of this world or that irresistible charmer you just can’t say no to.

2. The Life of the PartyNext you have those partygoers who are able to turn a dull affair into a whirlwind of fun. They are the type of people whose first question is ‘drink?’ and the last to request for “one more for the road”. Ordering a round of drinks on a whim is their specialty, and so is instigating everyone in the group to down shots one after the other. These people love to party and are guaranteed to stay until the bitter end so a high tolerance to alcohol is vital. You either love or hate these type of people.

3. The BummerNo group is complete without the guy who’s always a few shilling short of a drink, a cigarette, a light or a cab. They love to party but aren’t willing to spend a dime to do it. They are great to hang out with but terribly expensive to have around especially during mid-month. These people have no hesitation to order drinks but can’t quite manage to pay the bill at the end of the night which can be quite inconveniencing when one of you has to foot the bill.

4. The Invisible Lightweight

WHAT KInd OF PARTY gOER ARE YOU?

There is always that one partygoer whose great fun to begin with, and tolerated by the end. This lot lose control of themselves very early on in the night and tend to disappear for hours on end before they are finally found. When out at the club, they’ll lose all inhibition, bump into everyone and potentially get you into fights. Partying with a lightweight can prove to be quite interesting if you don’t mind being in charge of cleaning up and holding their hair back whilst hovering over a toilet just when the party is getting started.

Whatever your niche of partying there are partygoers for every kind of party. Find the right kind of people you’re comfortable with and vice versa then stick with it or adjust accordingly. Remember, a partygoer is someone at a party. You can’t be a partygoer if you don’t come to the party.

“No group is complete without the guy who’s always a few shilling short of a drink, a

cigarette, a light or a cab.”

Hi revelers remember, remember to date in September. While finding love in parties is a daunting task do not

write it off entirely because the party month is here and chances are you are single and ready to mingle.

So how do you go about finding love in the charged, fun-filled, drinks-in-plenty atmosphere that is the Kenyan party scene? Whether looking for a hot and drop dead gorgeous girl or a knight in shining armor, it is also important not to obsess about finding love it is not the only thing worth living for. Just get out there, be at ease and enjoy the party. Here are a few pointers to keep in mind that will help you attract the person you want to date:

Be presentable and approachable. If you are looking for someone who will take you seriously and not just as a chips funga, how you look will speak volumes about what you are there for. You don’t have to dress officially to attract working class people but you can dress for the occasion as you deem fit. It’s important to be wary of the kind of message you are sending out to the date-to-be. Remember, first impressions last longer than you’d think and you may never get a second chance to make a great first impression.

Position yourself strategically. Finding a date may not be the sole reason to attend a party but it surely can increase the chances of meeting someone who at least shares the same interests. Ensure you do not lock out potential people by being seemingly busy by constantly whipping out your Smartphone to check out the latest news and updates on Facebook. This may come off as anti-social especially if you are all dressed up and hidden in a corner on your phone.

Take part in the fun activities. Joining in the dances and the activities will definitely be a nice way to approach or be approached by someone. A simple compliment in the way you danced or an unfair judgment in a game may spark a conversation whose ending might be well just what you are looking for!

“Remember, first impressions last longer than you’d think and you may never get a second chance to make a first impression“

No matter the outcome it’s important to enjoy the mingling process. Meeting someone at a party and hitting it off may just come as an added bonus.If finding a partner in the party scene is not working for you or you are not one to attend such you can always log on to www.paiired.com and let an assistant do the searching for you.

Deciding to get out of town can be daunting or exciting depending on your level of spontaneity. If you are planning an out of town party or vacation,

you might need to spend extra time preparing for it. It is always a good idea to plan your getaway especially if you’re the mastermind behind some fun in the sun. To make sure everyone has the best possible time for the duration of their stay, try these simple planning tips to make your party or vacation truly enjoyable.

Party memorabilia Creating gifts for loved ones can be fun and a wonderful surprise to present to everyone upon arrival at your vacation destination. Collecting simple items that give clues to the kind of activities planned is a great way to pique everyone’s interest especially when the itinerary is revealed. You can place the party items in advance when guests arrive or hand deliver them to welcome them to the event. Remember a memento or souvenir of the city or vacation spot is always a great way to remember your fun getaway.

Make a day of itWhen you arrive, seize the day and arrange to have everyone go on a tour. You might have this activity as part of the party

THE BEST lAId PlAnS

“It is always a good idea to plan your getaway especially if you’re the

mastermind behind some fun in the sun”

or as an additional event in conjunction with the party. Tour companies, bus charter companies or travel agents will be able to arrange a tour for you if you aren’t the best planner. Visiting a couple of tourist attractions of the area will be appreciated. This way you’ll be able to enjoy being together and you might be able to see the city in a way that might not be possible without a tour guide.

Mix and mingleIf you are going to party in a large city or small town follow the saying “When in Rome…” You know the rest. Basically, enjoy the local food, music and way of life wherever you may be. This is the easiest way to get that special party favor or take-home souvenir to give friends and family at the end of your retreat.

Remember “best-laid plans of mice and men often go astray”, meaning things often go wrong even though you have carefully planned what you are going to do. So remember, don’t sweat the small stuff. Just go with the flow and have a great time with whomever you’re with.
