Clothing is an extension of a person’s personality. It projects their tastes and is an important part of making a first impression. Most likely, the reindeer sweater from your aunt isn’t going to project the image you want to portray. This holiday season, unique and fashionable clothing is a hit.

“A major wardrobe embarrassment that we’ve all experienced is going to work, to a party or simply walking in public and seeing someone else with the same shirt, pants, jacket or purse as you,” says Natasha Forth, a fashion expert at CustomizedGirl.com. “There are many ways to get unique clothes that are special to who you are and the image you want to portray.”

This holiday season, get a gift that will really stand out. Here are some tips for getting clothing that no one else has:

Customized Printing
A big trend in many fashion circles is getting shirts, tanks and jackets custom printed. In magazines we see celebrities making a variety of statements on their T-shirts. From unique designs to political statements to declarations of love, customized printing is an affordable and easy way to create unique pieces in your wardrobe.

Web sites like CustomizedGirl.com are user friendly and provide many clothing options so you can get a unique item that no one else has. Shirts, tanks and jackets can be customized with symbols, designs, names and other phrases in a variety of sizes and font styles. You can even upload your own logos and pictures for a specialized item. For ideas, visit the community page on the Web site and see what other users are creating.

Shop Vintage
Secondhand stores provide an array of styles and clothing options for those looking for something different at an affordable price. Whether it’s your local vintage boutique or a chain donation store such as the Salvation Army or Goodwill, you will find lots of clothing that you’re not likely to find on anyone else.

The key to shopping secondhand is to make sure you have enough time to go through the items. Often these types of stores have a lot of clothing and you have to dig and search for that special item to add to your wardrobe. Look for clothing from different eras to add flare to one of your current outfits. A 40s cardigan is the perfect addition to a dress or a 20s hat can add unique style.

Shopping vintage is like a treasure hunt because you never know what you’re going to find, but you can be sure that you’re not likely to find it at your local retail store or in anyone else’s closet.

Details
Often what truly stand out on an outfit are the little details. Whether it’s a standard wardrobe item from your local retail store, or a tired piece of clothing you haven’t worn in years, adding special details can give these pieces style and new life.

Visit your local sewing and craft store to find unique appliqués, sequins, buttons, studs and other details that can easily be added to any fabric. Embroidery is another option that can add flare to otherwise boring clothing.

And remember, adding a funky necklace or unique belt can change an entire outfit and make it stand. Look to the details and accessories to add pizzazz this holiday season.
