Rule Number One: Always Dress Like the Weather Doesn't Matter

Why is it that hipsters always seem to be wearing multiple layers of clothing? Not only do they wear a lot of clothing, but it is usually the same types of clothing. Because of this, it is usually easy to identify them by their particular clothing style. There are a few staple items to any hipster wardrobe:

1. Skinny jeans that are 3 sizes too small

2. A scarf wrapped around multiple times

3. Shoes that cover most of your foot

4. A t-shirt with either a logo of something no one has ever heard of or some kind of graphic pun

5. A zip-up jacket or blazer

One thing that is very important to remember is that this everyday outfit DOES. NOT. CHANGE. Whether it is the Fourth of July or New Years Eve, you can count on any true hipster wearing this combination of clothing. The only difference to their outfits, and the only way you can tell what the weather is like outside, is their coffee. If they are drinking iced coffee, it usually indicates that it is hot outside, while hot coffee means it is probably freezing cold.

So while the weather may be too mainstream for hipsters to care about, us mainstreamers actually care that we are sweating profusely under our layers of clothing on a hot day. Here are a few tips for dressing mainstream in the hipster world:

1. Always shop at places that feature hipsters in their magazines/on their websites. Good examples of such stores are Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, etc.

2. Never be afraid to wear something new, and never give up on a new style just because it didn't work the first time.

3. Accessories and shoes matter. You can make any outfit more hipster by adding strappy, Gladiator shoes (for girls) or Vans/Converse (for boys) and accessorizing with a pair of plastic Ray-Ban knock offs and a cool hat. 

4. Be confident! Let your inner hipster convince you that you can rock any look because you just don't care what the world thinks.
