Hip, Not Hipster

       Geek chic and scruffy look, revisited...

     Hipster can sometimes be a bit much, right?  It is a mish-mash of so many things that the eyes may not even know where to look at.  Hipster wear is cool though because it is all about geek chic, which many of us love.  Here are some tips on how to be hip with this kind of look.

David Beckham is known to constantly sport the geek chic look

►TIP:  The right way to accessorize any hipster outfit is with a pair of chunky glasses and a vintage laptop bag or satchel.  These things are perfect for the office but perhaps it’s best to tone down the clothes if you’re going to an important meeting! Yeah, it is possible to be hipster but still look professional.  All you gotta do is create a blend of smart and street that you can wear anywhere.

Accessorize!  That's the key  to the geek chic look

►TIP:  Slim jeans work very well with a fitted shirt or slogan t-shirt.  This kind of outfit will be perfect for any occasion, as you can make it look fashionably scruffy when you go out in the evening by adding some cool layers and accessories like a scarf, waistcoat or pair of trainers.


The Jonas brothers always looked cool with their geek chic style

     Geek chic also works very well with the scruffy look.  Scruffy is very in right now for men!  A lot of celebrities have been seen sporting the scruffy look and hipsters are no exception.  But the hip look is all about sculpting your scruffiness and keeping it under control.

Chris Hemsworth, Justin Timberlake and Adam Levine -- all scruffy!

►TIP:  A lot of offices now let men express themselves by wearing jeans at work so finding the right pair of jeans is essential, like the Stone Island Jeans from Robert Fuller which are cool without being too casual.  And because they are smart enough already, you won’t need to iron them!

     There's a lot of ways to express your style so you can look cool.  Be creative, be smart, and most importantly -- be yourself.  Hope you enjoyed this post!
