The 15th November is the most important day of the year because it's time to celebrate Neopets's Birthday!
Our Neopets would like to be perfect on this day so we thought of three different birthday-themed customisations using only multispecies neopoints wearable items. Are you ready for the party? Keep reading our article and maybe you'll find some interesting ideas to create your own outfit! MALE OUTFIT If our spiffy Neopet wants to make the early hours in the morning during the Neopets Birthday Celebration, then he'll need some pieces of cloth that are both glamorous and comfortable! 
Dapper Yellow Shirt and Green Jacket
This cheap and nice wearable was a bonus item awarded for completing all 4 quests in the 2011 Festival of Neggs. Don't worry if you missed the event, because you can easily buy it in shops for around 5,000 neopoints a piece. The Dapper Yellow Shirt and Green Jacket is elegant but not too much formal and it fits for both younger and older Neopets. This is a really underestimated wearable, probably due to its vivacious, vivid colours, but we think it's really perfect for a great event like this! This adorable garment is also very versatile and you can use it for Spring-and-work- themed customisations as well. Golden Cravat
This shiny, gold item was awarded to those who voted every day during the Neopia's Style Showdown in 2010. The Golden Cravat is a bit hard to find because it is a retired wearable. You can buy it at trading post for around 800k. It is not the most cheap item in the whole Neopia, but this is a really stylish accessory! Due to the lack of multispecies wearables for male pets, we believe that this cravat is a great closet and wallet investment because you can't actually find anything similar at the moment. So it is considered like a really unique item. Hardy Blue Trousers
These pair of trousers must be in everyone closet because they are cheap, spiffy, comfortable, versatile and they also look great on almost every species! They can be used in a lot of very different outfits, as their neutral colour easily reminds us of jeans and we know in how many different occasions we choose to wear our pair of jeans! If you still don't have the Hardy Blue Trousers, you can handily buy a pair in shops for only 10k each. It's a real bargain, isn't it? AAA Host Shoes
For 80k a pair, you can find these brown, spiffy shoes in user shops. The AAA Host Shoes are refined, comfortable and you can use this item in a lot of customisations due to its neutral , dark shade. Smarmy Monocle
This cheap item cost only 4k neopoints a piece, and is able to add a touch of class to every aristocrat, old style customisation! Its colour also matches perfectly the other items used in our outfit, so we couldn't avoid to choose it. Blue 9th Birthday Cake Hat
This sparkly, glittering blue and gold hat came out of the Neopets 9th Birthday Goodie Bag and it costs around 200k. It is an accessory for really special occasions, like the Neopets Birthday. It surely looks fun, and a bit odd but it is absolutely recommended to celebrate an event such this one! Sparkler
There isn't a more appropriate item than this for a party! Spending only 4k neopoints a piece, you can buy this shiny, funny Sparkler! Thanks to its cheap price, it really can be considered as a great closet investment; in fact you can also use it for other customisations like the New Year-themed one. Fireworks Background
