Cool Gift Ideas for Party Girls

You rarely see her in the daytime, and when you do, she's usually nursing a hangover. But as soon as the sun goes down, she comes to life. She's your contact person for all the new hot spots; her knowledge of all the latest new clubs and restaurants is so vast, it's damn near encyclopedic. You tried to tell her that one time as a compliment, but she didn't understand what you were talking about. Girls like her are too busy living it up to know the meaning of words like "encyclopedic."

Appearances are everything with her, and she's always dressed to the nines. After dark, you'll find her clad in some barely-there slip of a dress, all legs and cleavage. She knows that her considerable physical assets are her ticket into the hippest, most exclusive establishments, and works her God-given (and store-bought) charms like a true pro.

Oh yeah, she's a party girl, and proud of it. But she's also your friend, and with the holidays approaching, you have no idea what her gift should be.

Well, relax. Here are 10 that are sure to satisfy, listed in no particular order:

Gift #1: Sexy Underwear
Wherever they are and whatever they do, party girls have a knack for always winding up in their underwear. Whether she's at the opening of Rande Gerber's new hotspot or cousin Ira's bar mitzvah, you can rest assured that this queen of the night will somehow end up dancing on a bar somewhere, stripped down to her unmentionables. A set of sexy, silky undies is a gift that will help make sure she's always at her best during these revealing moments.

Gift #2: Digital Camera
Party girls are always doing fun things and meeting fun people. Help your BFF capture those glorious moments by buying her a digital camera. Think of all the fun you'll both have as she emails you pics of Celebrity So-and-So that she had dinner with last night.

Gift #3: Camcorder
For party girls, sometimes dinner with Celebrity So-and-So turns into more than just dinner. Help your buddy immortalize those moments by making her gift a camcorder. It's no secret that every party girl worth her salt has a sex tape or two hidden in her closet. This gift will help your friend keep up with the Paris Hiltons of this world.

Gift #4: Front and Rear Vehicle Parking Sensor Kit
It's true - party girls are notoriously bad drivers. It could have something to do with the fact that they're usually high or drunk. It would be easy to judge your buddy, but you're not that kind of friend, are you? Why not empower her instead, with a gift that will make it easier for her to navigate her way in and out those tight spots? These vehicle parking sensors emit a helpful beep when her car draws too close to a nearby object. They're also hundreds cheaper than factory-installed models. Parallel parking is like Kryptonite to party girls, but with this thoughtful gift, your friend will never fear the "p" word again.

Gift #5: A Case Of Wine
You've reached the point in your friendship with your party-girl buddy when you realize that you'll never change her; she is who she is, and your moralizing falls on deaf ears. In the past, you two have had your tiffs about her behavior; you've tried to counsel her to curb her reckless ways, and she's angrily accused you of judging her, and told you that you're not her mother. A case of wine - which carries so much more oomph than a mere bottle - is a gift that tells her that you've accepted her for who she is. As she busts open that case, pops the cork, and takes a deep chug, she'll forget all about that time you told her she was going to hell and called her a drunk whore.

Gift #6: Portable GPS Navigation System
One particularly charming trait of party girls is that they're always waking up drunk somewhere, with no idea where they are or how they got there. This new technology allows women like your friend to always know there whereabouts, and how to get back home. It's a navigation system similar to those found in cars, only its portable. Most systems have information pertaining to both the United States and Europe, which means that your friend will be able to use it whether she's drinking herself under the table in the Hollywood Hills or freshening her nose with some Bolivian marching powder at that all-night rave in Ibiza. With this gift, you will help your amiga take control of her life, and she'll love you for it.

Gift #7: Oversized Sunglasses
Oversized sunglasses are to party girls what spots are to leopards. It makes sense if you think about it. These girls are up all night living their glamorous lives. This takes its toll, and in the daytime, they usually look like death warmed over. What better way to conceal the ravages of last night's fiesta than with a pair of huge sunglasses? Bags under the eyes? No problem. Cadaverous complexion? Not a big deal. These ginormous sunglasses are huge enough to cover all manner of ills. Your buddy will thank you for giving a gift that gives her someplace safe to hide.

Gift #8: Phone Card
They're in demand and always on the go. Party girls are expert multitaskers, often juggling a dozen things at the same time. As a result, they're always losing things - things like their cell phone. Make sure the party girl in your life is never left stranded again by buying her a phone card. This is a gift she'll appreciate on those mornings that find her waking up in some back alley with a guy she doesn't even remember, wondering what the hell she did with her cell phone. She'll love her new phone card. Just hope she doesn't lose it.

Gift #9: "Freakum" Pumps
Have you ever seen a party girl wearing flats? It's no doubt written somewhere that all true party girls must, must, must wear high heels. Treat your friend to the highest, sexiest pair you can get your hands on. Someone somewhere once said that high heels bring you closer to God. Your favorite party girl will love you for gracing her with a gift that takes her six or so inches nearer to the Divine.

Gift #10: Bikini Wax
Her Mrs. Peabody is one of a party girl's most valuable assets, and she'll go to great lengths to keep it looking good. Help her in her noble goal by treating her to a bikini wax at a nice salon. Whether bare or barely tufted, your party girl's privates will always be ready for their close-up.
