To Hip For A Title To be a hipster, in my eyes, is to not follow the crowd, or to like something just because it's cool. A hipster is someone unafraid to be who they truly are, who follows their own rules and isn't afraid to stand out from the crowd or to try something original. I work as a fashion stylist and have had to many run ins with people who think they're cool but are really just sheep, following the herd. I specialise in sourcing vintage fashion and spend half my life at flea markets (my flat resembles some mad miss havisham attic), people have said that's cool, they clearly have not spent hours breathing in dust in costume warehouses! I love live music and go to see bands whenever I have the chance, I've also worked on quite a few music videos. To me, coolness is in the eye of the beholder
