10 Best Hipster Outfits For Girls

1. Distressed Jeans And Neon Trench Coat

As you can see, mainstream outfits can easily be given a hipster twist. A neon trench coat can take a simple pair of distressed jeans to the next level. And, white ankle boots are an excellent way to break away from the chunky sneakers that are trending everywhere right now. If you want to go for a bold and unique look, don’t be afraid to match your pumps or boots with the bright-colored coat

2. Oversized Coat And Combat Boots For Winter

Winters are all about staying warm. But, let’s be realistic, we still need to get out and get to work. Throw on a long, oversized jacket that creates a hipster vibe almost instantly, especially when you pair it with chunky combat boots. Pick a boot that has some studs or subtle designs to create an edgier look

3. Hipster Outfits For School

It’s that time of the year again – back to school season. Pair your favorite distressed jeans with a rustic plain T-shirt and finish off the look with a sparkly kimono (because who doesn’t like glitter?). A denim jumpsuit is another easy way to hack the hipster style. You can wear the same kimono with this outfit too. Boots or black Converse sneakers will look perfect with this look. You can add a fun hat ro complete your look.

4. Casual Hipster Outfit

Keep things cash, as the millennials say, with this hipster outfit that is all about comfort. Wear a cropped white T-shirt under a jumpsuit instead of over distressed jeans and put on some chunky sneakers to create this laid-back look.

5. Vintage Skirt And Hat

We cannot talk about hipster outfits without mentioning a vintage look. A flowing yellow skirt, white top, nude lipstick, boots, and a wide-brimmed hat to round off this look perfectly. Whether you are attending a concert or catching up with friends, this hipster outfit is good for all occasions. You can also pair your outfit with a simple leather jacket to create a fun, cool, and edgy look.

Quick Tip

You can also wear different hipster skirts with tie dye, ragged pixie hem, denim, floral printed, or patchwork styles to enhance the hipster look.

6. Hipster Party Outfit

If you are known for your hipster fashion choices, your friends probably know what you are going to show up in, no matter what the theme of the party is. But, you can surprise them a little bit without getting too much out of your comfort zone. A bright animal print top adds character to any outfit. Throw on a pink duster coat, OTK boots, and a tan clutch to rock that party look.

7. Plaid Shirt And Distressed Jeans

Of course, a plaid shirt needs to be on this list. A plaid shirt in fall with frayed jeans is probably the easiest way to create a hipster look. Style your hair in beachy waves, throw on some delicate rose gold jewelry, and put on a floppy hat. You can never go wrong with this outfit. For a more luxurious and hipster look, you can add a pair of pumps to your outfit.

8. Black And White Hipster Outfit

Hipster outfits don’t always need to be loose and flowing. They can be form-fitting and stylish as well. A white A-line skirt with a black turtleneck top can teleport you to the ‘60s, which is the era most hipsters take fashion inspiration from. You can also put on some black leggings to stay warm. Cat-ear buns add the perfect finishing touch to this look.

9. Fit And Flair Hipster Outfit

If you think you can never pull off anything feminine because you have a purely hipster style, think again. Go for a boho-hipster vibe with a striped maxi skirt and a simple tank top. You can go all floral with accessories, put on some boots, or wear some tribal jewelry with this outfit to make it truly your own. By interchanging the top with a nice shirt, you can untuck it to create a more relaxed, hip effortless look.

Quick Tip

Alternatively, you can also wear tie-dyed tops or long-sleeved peasant blouses instead of a simple tank top to get the perfect hipster look.

10. Denim Shirt And Checked Pants

Hit it out of the park with this hipster outfit. The plaid pants, denim shirt, and chunky boots are all classy vintage pieces that come together to complete this hipster outfit. But, the cherry on top of this outfit is definitely the bandana that finishes it off perfectly.
