Remember Nomination bracelets? They were the link bracelets that everyone had to have, mostly because you could deck it out in whatever charms you wanted. The best part about them was that they were customizable accessories, so no one else would have the exact bracelet you did. Flash forward 20 years and everything from our Spotify playlists and Seamless orders to manicures and foundation — hell even our Diet Cokes — are branded, marked, and made for us. And we love it. We are obsessed with the fact that something was made exclusively for us, and no one else.

It's almost commonplace now to be able to go into a store or shop online and have something customized. The new “Do you want fries with that?” is “And how would you like that customized today?” Embroidery, patches, pins, stickers, paint — you name it and it can be done, sometimes right in front of you. Customization has expanded beyond just jeans and sneakers though. Now brands across the board are making it easier for you to get your name, your cat’s name, your catchphrase, etc. on everything from your beachwear to your sleepwear. So, we had some of the coolest customizable clothes Bustled out.
