What’s a look that would make you approach someone at a bar?
I'd look at the fit was of everything she's wearing, preferably all-black. I like things that are edgy. I like both heels and flats; it depends on the outfit. I like a good ass, so anything that emphasized her ass would work for me.

They all look too hipster for their own good.

Yeah, not too hipster, too gay. But they tend to be better dressed right?

Black is for funerals, duh.

Yea a bit too hipsterish for anyone to take seriously what they say.

In America they are called "Hipster", in England they are called "D1ckheads" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVmmYMwFj1I

Adam is adorable. If I knew where he hung out, I'd buy something teal and go sit at the bar. Also, this is a fashion column, nerds. they're supposed to look cool/different/not wear gap.

I love Erin's outfit but the rest of her outfit is a mess.

Ferdinand's shoes look too clunky for his small frame. However, out of the bunch I like his outfit the most.

I love Erin's coat***

Evan is the shizznit. He's too cool to care about clothes and only wants his special someone to be appropriately dressed for the weather lest they catch a cold.

They all look great. As it says in the title, these are New Yorkers. In NYC, this is just how fashionable people dress. It has nothing to do with being a hipster, it has to do with being creative with an interesting aesthetic and caring about how you present yourself

Mar 06 11 - 1:30am
hmmm

uh... no. If you want to see how fashionable people dress anywhere go look at the Sartorialist. With one or two exceptions these people just look like young NY hipsters, which is not in fact synonymous with fashionable. It looks cool to other NY hipsters, but mostly it looks like a mess.

I like all their styles except for Ferdinand (#4). But, that is just my own opinion.

I like this segment, will it continue?

Erin's style is great but she looks really annoyed. Sheesh...sorry someone admired your style.

Nah, they were both sweet!

thanks cindy! ...i actually wasn't annoyed, i was flattered. :)

That's a pretty narrow fashion spectrum. It appears more like a hipster yearbook.

Adam looks like Waldo (of where's Waldo fame), no?

Mar 04 11 - 7:11pm
Adam

I get that all the time!

Is it weird that I don't mind hipsters nearly as much when they're gay? Is it hetero-guilt?

Mar 04 11 - 2:58am

Nah. I feel the same way, and I'm gay, so it must be something else.

Erin, I dig your scowl. I'd totally approach you in the bar... regardless of what you're wearing. Oh, and you'd definitely like my ass.

No one looks good in ill-fitting clothing.

These people make me want to avoid NYC at all costs.

I don't even live in NYC, you might just want to stay at home forever just in case.

Ferdinand is adorable. If he's got an accent too, then sign me the fuck up. I'd let him borrow my ridiculous pants if he would let me borrow those ridiculous shoes.

Mar 04 11 - 4:37am

Ferdinand did have a very attractive accent. Perhaps you've found your dream man.

Oh man. You have no idea how hard I'm swooning right now.

This is by far the worst article I've ever seen. Focusing completely on the hipster, which most of NYC (aside from Brooklyn), freaking hates. These are the last people in the world you would want to take advice from.

Mar 04 11 - 3:20pm
KellyBourdet

They're not giving advice. They're talking about looks and traits that they personally like.

"I don't really care as much about fashion as I do about utility" Bullshit, then you wouldn't be wearing the vintage mickey pin or any jewelry. Also your pants wouldn't be so tight you can't use your pockets.

Mar 04 11 - 10:50am
yeahyeah

erin - boy ankles. so. damn. true.

whenever my boyfriend shows up in cuffed pants i get weak in the knees.

I'm so glad I'm not hipster enough for any of these people to ever approach me outside of a retail setting.

Mar 06 11 - 9:02pm
Dee

They probably wouldn't even approach you then. It my experience, anyhow. Hurr!

Holy hipsters, batman! God damn. (and not in a good way)

fyi to all the people hating on "hipster" fashion, you will all be wearing versions of these trends in 5 years when they show up at your local department store. If you don't like fashion, don't real a fashion blog

Very pretty outfit, Erin!

I love people who come to Nerve and then complain about hipsters. This is one of the most hipster-ish sites I've ever been to. And i'm pretty much a hipster!

It's like a hipster bomb exploded and everybody got hit.

Ferdinand reminds me of a child playing dress ups in his parents' (or grandparents' in his case) clothing.

Thank you a lot for the very good article about this post. It’s worth to buy an essay about this topic.

That is easier to pay for essay than to complete research paper yourself. Thus, do it and focus on your family deals.

mortgage loans

People deserve good life and business loans or secured loan will make it much better. Because people's freedom bases on money state.

business loans

I had got a desire to make my business, but I didn't earn enough amount of cash to do this. Thank goodness my dude told to use the mortgage loans. Thus I received the student loan and realized my dream.
