Last Monday before Christmas, and I think everyone is more ready than ever to go on Christmas break huh? I don't think we need any pepp to get through this very short work week, but maybe a few tips about the Christmas chores that are on our shoulders? So I collected a few links with a Cristmassy theme, here you go!

Gift help - why not give an experience?

If you're stuck with what to give to that person who has everything, or that person who's on a sabbatical year/month/week from consumer society, why not give away an experience? Mydomainhome listed a few here, but I would like to add tickets to concerts or festivals - when in doubt, go for a concert - the tickets I once got on Christmas to my first Bruce Springsteen concert made me cry.

App - Spotify Party

Just in time for the holiday bashes Spotify released its second app (first one was Spotify running), tailored to parties. Spotify Party is based on the idea that there are different moods to different kinds of parties and its easily adjustable with the mood tuner. The playlists are done by DJ:s and made seamless, and there's one for every occasion. I'm so ready to try this out! Spotify got the help of the DJ Diplo to push for it, he has put some exclusive material in the app.

How to accessorize for the parties? Take note from Iris Apfel

Whowhatwear put up a couple of inspiring pics of the Accessory queen herself, Iris, to be inspired by for the Christmas party outfit. I just think she's the coolest lady ever, and if you haven't seen her documentary yet, DO IT.
