I can't tell you how many times I've made a fashion purchase and thought to myself, 'If only this came in another color or with a few more added details.' It sort of makes me wish I knew how to design and sew my own clothes. But it looks like I don't have to! Did you know that there are a ton of sites out there that allow you to design and custom-make your own personalized items? In an age full of affordable and on-trend mass-produced retailers like H&M and Forever21, it makes you wonder is there even a demand for custom-made clothing? Well, apparently and fortunately there is! From custom-made shoes to DIY jeans, check out a few of my favorite sites for best bespoke services!
Shoes of Prey: Finally a site that allows me to customize my own pumps! Best part? It's super easy! Simply choose the shape, color, style and height and voila—you got your perfect dream shoes!
Make Your Own Jeans: I've pretty much given up on jean shopping. It's very rare that I find a pair that looks and fits exactly the way that I want.
