How to Dress Your Baby Like a Hipster
Though your baby is probably not too concerned with indie rock music, independent thinking or protesting mainstream culture, dressing him like a little hipster can be amusing for Halloween or a quick trip to the coffee shop. Neighborhoods outside of New York, San Francisco and Chicago are well-known for their growing hipster culture, and it is never too early to show your child how to buck tradition and carve out your own style in life.

Instructions
Start your baby̵7;s hipster outfit with an one-piece or little T-shirt that features a graphic design, droll slogan or comic book theme. Consider designs that include handlebar mustaches, owls or cassette tapes. Purchase adult-style clothes if you cannot find a T-shirt that you like, such as a pullover golf shirt, baby khaki pants or a tiny suit jacket. Cover everything up with a gray zip-front hoodie. Search for authentic vintage clothing in local thrift stores or your parents̵7; attic to dress your baby. Find unstained garments that are in good condition and wash them in a gentle detergent. Restore tyke-sized denim or 70s floral items for a classic hipster style. Avoid dressing your baby in any item that is trendy, displays a mainstream company logo or is located on the main rack at the mall. Look for the unusual clothing items on the clearance rack that no one else wants to create your baby hipster outfit. Skip pastels and other traditional baby colors, and steer toward earth tones, neon or funky patterns. Buy organic, handmade clothes for a truly one-of-a-kind look. Look for thick, black rimmed glasses, a beanie hat or high-top sneakers to add some pizzazz to the outfit. Choose chunky leather shoes or colored tights for an unexpected accent. Rub a small amount of styling lotion on your palms and rub it on his hair to create a shaggy look that would make any hipster proud. Previous:Baby Customs in Germany
