Five Star Gift Ideas

Finding a meaningful gift for your son who loves vintage clothing and thrifting can be a wonderful way to support his interests and show him how well you know him. Here are a few unique and personal gift ideas that may make his eyes light up this Christmas:

1. Vintage Clothing Subscription: Surprise your son with a subscription to a vintage clothing service. These services curate high-quality, handpicked vintage clothing items and send them straight to his door. It's like thrifting without having to leave the house! He'll get the thrill of discovering new pieces and adding unique finds to his collection every month.

2. Thrift Store Gift Card: While it may seem simple, a gift card to his favorite local thrift stores can be a perfect gift. This way, your son can continue exploring his passion for vintage clothing and curating his own collection. Encourage him to take you along on a thrift store adventure to help him pick out some hidden gems.

3. Vintage-inspired Accessories: Consider getting him some vintage-inspired accessories that he can incorporate into his outfits. A classic pocket watch, a retro-inspired tie or bowtie, or a vintage-style leather belt can add the finishing touches to his thrifty ensembles and provide a unique and personal touch.

4. Vintage Fashion Books: Help your son deepen his knowledge and appreciation for vintage fashion with books that delve into the history and evolution of different eras. Look for books that explore iconic fashion designers, vintage clothing trends, or offer style inspiration. This gift will not only cater to his love for vintage clothing but also expand his understanding of the fashion industry.

5. Collage of Vintage Magazine Clippings: Create a personalized and artistic gift by curating a collage of vintage magazine clippings. You can gather images of vintage fashion, iconic models, and distinctive styles from different eras. By framing this collage, your son will have a unique artwork to display in his room or workspace, serving as a constant inspiration for his passion.

6. Vintage Photography Prints: Since your son appreciates all things vintage, consider gifting him vintage photography prints. Look for prints that showcase fashion icons, iconic moments in fashion history, or vintage street style. The prints can be displayed on his walls, reminding him of his love for vintage clothing and photography.

Remember, the most important aspect of a gift is the thought behind it. Paying attention to your son's passion for vintage clothing and thrifting shows that you are supportive of his interests and truly understand him. Whatever you choose, he will appreciate the effort and love you put into finding a meaningful gift that aligns with his unique style and interests.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
