I need a Hipster costume for a costume party. Please help me out, I need an overexaggerated hipster costume and I already got the dirty ass tight jeans and pumas. Help me out here.

What?

don't forget obnoxious pink/green laces, purple hoodie, a haircut that knows not what water is and obnoxiously huge retro glasses

What?

emo/indie students

Just ordered the hoodie! Do I need a new era hat too? Or is that too hip hop!

just go for a Castro hat and pretend your a socialist/anarchist (not too hard though the ideology is to look "cool" and "edgy")

Che Guevara shirt to wear under the open hoody?

Faded or no?

I take it we are not talking 1940's hipsters here. Shame because you could really blow their wigs if you rolled in togged to the bricks.

Is now a wrong time to say 23 skidoo?

Swingers -- The Bobs (Joe Finetti)

Let's throw the top down and cruise out to Vegas
And drop a few hundred and then
I'll change the oil and we'll have a few cocktails
And drop a few hundred....again
Shoot up to Reno, check into a motel
Relax on our vibrating bed
Wake up at noon have some free in-room coffee
Man! Dig that buffet - what a spread

We're two swingers making the scene, two renegade vagabonds
We just blew in from nineteen sixty three
We're two hipsters, outta sight and out of time
I'm grooving on him - and I'm digging me

Coded some software when I was in college
Made me a bundle of bread
I don't need cell phones, 'n pagers, 'n modems
I carry my world in my head
My gal says takeout and I hit the gas
And we fly down that miracle mile
Pop in an eight track - turn up the rat pack
Yeah! Neon and chrome - that's our style

We're two swingers making the scene, two renegade vagabonds
We just blew in from nineteen sixty three
We're two players, outta sight and out of time.
I'm telling you man, we're calendar free

Free, to party pool side
Free, to mambo til dawn
Lounge at the lanai conversing - baby you and I we're nursing
Highballs and martinis eating little cocktail weenies

They're really retro and strictly hetero
Just like the way we used to be
Don't do aerobics - they're homophobics
Just like the way we used to be

Put on your pill box and zip up your car coat
We're out to catch Wayne at the Sands
Grease a few palms for a table up front
And we'll show off our clothes and our tans
I'm spilling Jim Beam all over my shark skin
And Newton's obscured by a pole
We ditch the encore then -- POW-- it's lucky sevens
We'll never crap out - We're on a roll

We're two swingers making the scene, two renegade vagabonds
We just blew in from nineteen sixty three
We're two hipsters, outta sight and out of time
I'm in the mood for Mayfair
Put the kids in day care
Grab your credit cards
Come fly with me

what year of 'hipster' are you going for. 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's?

Shit, you don't need to exaggerate to look like you're wearing a costume...

For me I have to, I happen to look exactly like an overrated 2000s hipster when wearing drainpipes.

you need one of these type scarfs http://moeys.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/scarf.jpg
Fake lip rings, earings for the upper ear
Do you have a checkered or studded belt? http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51L5JfNAfBL._SL500_AA280_.jpg
Borrow black eye liner from your mother/sister

Heh, I have the scarf! Crowning moment of Awesome!
