Dressing Your Male Neopet for Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and we wanted to dress our male Neopets up for this sweet, lovely holiday, but what a hard challenge!

There are only a few male garments that are suitable for an important event like this, so we decided to make a short list of male items, from the hat to the shoes, in order to help every male Neopets who wants to have the perfect outfit, even if they aren't romantic and prefer a gothic style or they hate Valentine's Day. This way they can be proud to show their personal attitude!

HATS

Red Derby. This awesome hat is a neopoint item and costs only around 13k a piece. Its vivacious red colour is really appropriate for the most romantic Neopet!

Black Derby. The Black Derby is elegant and really refined. Your Neopet will show his melancholic, dark mood for a really gothic Valentine' s Day! It costs around 55k a piece and we are sure you'll use this hat for a lot of different customisations... so keep it in mind!

Spooky Spyder Top Hat. The Spooky Spyder Top Hat is a retired NC item, but is still really easy to find! We suggest to use this hat to celebrate your pet's repulsion to Valentine's Day with stylish and glamour!

WIGS

Suave Dark Wig. This lovely wig is a new item and it is still a bit expensive. You can buy it at around 250k a piece at the trading post; however, because of its low rarity, you can wish for it at the Wishing Well. So don't forget to use your fourteen wishes per day for this gorgeous wig! Dressing the Suave Dark Wig your Neopet will look actually romantic!

Basic Short Wig. There is a new shop at the NC Mall where you can buy five short wigs in five different shades for only 100 NC each. This is a really great bargain because these wigs are really versatile, graceful and spiffy! Which colour will you choose for your Valentine?

GLASSES

Premium Collectible: Heart Contacts. This very-easy-to-find pair of neocash contacts were rewarded during January 2014 to loyal Premium players. Wearing these cute, fun contacts, your Neopet will be able to show all his love for his Valentine!

That's why they'll choose for sure this pair of contacts coming from the latest Cookie released in the NC Mall, the Sugar Skull NC Fortune Cookie. You can buy it for 250 NC and, if you're lucky, you'll find those contacts inside!

Angry Meepit Eyes. Pets disgusted by Valentine's Day will probably have an annoyed gaze, as they are surrounded by heart-shaped garlands, cookies, and anonymous, mysterious valentine's cards. The Angry Meepit Eyes, a neopoint item from Y11 Daily Dare, are available in shops for around 95,000 NP a piece and your Unvalentine pet will be more than glad to show a displeased look on Valentine's Day using those eyes!
