Where can I find unique clothes?

I'm looking to find some unique clothes both online and instore. For instore I've been thinking of checking thrift stores, but does anyone know of another place I could try? Please don't suggest the stores normally found in a mall (such as American Eagle, Aeropostel, etc.) or any other "common" stores.





I'd like some suggestions on places to look online, also. So far, I've only found sites such as asiajam.com and ccs.com. I've been searching around eBay as well. I'd prefer to avoid Forever 21, Rue 21, Wet Seal, etc.





Basically, I'm looking to avoid the trends. I just can't find anything in the more popular stores, it's all so cookie-cutter (no offense). I just want something a little out of the ordinary, but nothing TOO out of the ordinary. Maybe something a bit on the vintage side?





Any advice? I appreciate the help A LOT. Thanks and I'm really sorry for being so picky.....I just can't seem to find many unique clothes anywhere and hope someone will be able to help.

Where can I find unique clothes?
I generally don't wear the norm either. I love clothes with rhinestone or crystal, any brands. Check out polyester shirts with comics on them, wear bright colors, shirts with faces or shopping lady motifs, studded and chains.

Reply:Have you checked out any of those fancy thrift shops? Where some of the clothes are gently worn? I heard Some are name brands. Los Gatos is supposed to have a nice one but I can't remember the name of the shop. I think the name are letters and not words. I totally agree with you about the trendy stuff.

Reply:I think YOOX has pretty unique clothes.....
Reply:thrift stores are a big no-no. I went into the salvation army thrift store once and when I came out, I felt like I needed to be de-loused. All their clothes stink like homeless people and dog piss
Reply:if your mom was the same size as you at your age than ask her if she still has same clothes from the 70s or 80s
Reply:There are a lot of people out there that feel the way you do. Go through our links page and you will surely find something, maybe more than you bargained for! Lots of Indie designers and vintage sites - we've been very selective, so they're all good. ....Oh, and check out OUR site too!
