Try going green. Online sites carrying funky organic clothes are popping up everywhere. HippyChixShop.com carries all things funky, including clothes made organically from “green” fabrics, such as hemp. They carry funky dresses, jewelry, purses, belts and novelty tees. They even carry pillboxes, business card boxes and manicure sets with retro pictures on them. Their clothes also come in plus sizes, so women who are not size twos can dress funky as well.

Channel your inner “bohemian chick” by shopping for handmade clothes at Bohemian Closet.com. Each piece is a one of a kind, handmade work of art, inspired by East Asia. You can be sure that no one else will be walking around in any clothes that you’ve purchased from this site. By shopping at Bohemian Closet you will not only be “hippie-chic,” but you will be helping South East Asian women, as the owners will occasionally hire them to help with the work, often times saving women from prostitution.

Get your baby in on the funky act and be the hippest family on the block by shopping at TheRetroBaby.com. Dress your baby or toddler in 70s inspired rock tees or onesies. The site’s haute baby clothes directly from L.A. are adorable and their own “retroboy” line is trendy and edgy. The site offers funky hoodies, gift sets, and even changing pads and fun diaper covers so your little one can be cool even in a diaper! All of the clothes are 100 percent cotton and tend to run small. It is suggested that you purchase a larger size if your child is in-between sizes!

Try the junior’s section on department store websites. Oftentimes you can score great sales on funky clothes in the junior departments. The sale sections are usually bigger than those offered in the actual stores. If you are no longer a junior, make sure you try a bigger size, as the clothes are generally made for teen bodies. Now put on a pair of funky pajamas and let your fingers do your shopping online!
