Though clothes are popular gift ideas, they’re fairly tricky to get right. They’re personal after all, and there are so many aspects you need to consider before settling on a perfect gift: the recipient’s fashion style, favorite colors, and even the fabric. Luckily, we’ve wrapped up a few pieces that will surely be a hit for the holiday season.

More than just adding to a loved one’s wardrobe, these pieces help support local businesses that produce eco-friendly products and underserved communities. And the best part? You’ll even get to skip the long lines at the mall because most of these are also sold online.
