Are You A Hipster?

Tue, 06/12/2012

Not all that long ago Pharrell Williams launched a new creative effort which he named "I Am Other" in an attempt to show people that it is better to embrace who they are, rather than change things and conform to a lifestyle that they are not comfortable with. Whether it means you wear clothing that is not on the latest trend, or listen to music that others may never have heard of there is certainly nothing wrong with being yourself. The unfortunate reality of the world we live in however is that no matter how you classify yourself, or don't for that matter there is always the impending judgment that will no doubt come from other; for whatever reason that may be.

One of the biggest new sub-cultures in pop culture is the love hate that people have going on with the term "Hipster" which has definitely been met with some resistance by the general public, although the jury is still out on what exactly the tag is defined by. So in an effort to clarify the title of Hipster, and to determine what exactly it means I Am Other's new segment "Stereotypes" takes to the streets to find an opinion and try to settle the debate.

Whether you consider yourself a hipster or not, there is definitely a style that goes along with the look you have going. And whether that look is "Boho" "Hipster" "Glam" or "Street" there is one place you can get the eyewear and accessories that suit you the best. You can check all of them out at WWW.SPAREPARTSLIFE.COM and even narrow down the selection by taste.
