Before looking at the trendiest hipster glasses, we need to understand the concept behind it first. So, you have probably heard the term like a million times: you're a total hipster, or you're dressing like a hipster! But, what does it actually mean?

For starters, contrary to beliefs, being called a hipster is not a bad thing. A hipster is a contemporary subculture of men and women, usually in their 20s, that value independent thinking, creativity, intelligence, art and indie-rock music. For hipsters, authenticity is an important matter. You need to think, talk and even dress like yourself to be a true hipster.

In other words, a hipster is a person who is interested in the latest trends such as music, fashion and lifestyle. However, it is crucial to note that hipsters are not into the status quo. Moreover, if everybody becomes interested in a particular trend, hipsters just leave it behind and search for a new thing to follow.

You might be wondering: When did hipster glasses become popular? The history of hipster eyewear took an unexpected turn. Initially, the glasses were meant to be designed as a simple square frame. Instead, they're known today as wayfarers.

With celebrities going out and about, the shape became popular. A-list stars like Buddy Holly, Bob Dylan, Marilyn Monroe and even Grace Kelly embraced the specific design either on-screen or off-screen.

Soon enough, everyone wanted a piece of the hipster frames to the extent of wearing them without any prescription. You can get non-prescription hipster glasses to join the widespread movement. Today, these glassses are made with premium materials making them chic and comfortable for the eyes. They evolved into many different shapes of glasses under the label of "hipster".

The term hipster has been used rather frequently to define someone who doesn't believe in anything mainstream. If you're going to be different, be confident about it. That's an ideology that hipster follow. You already know that hipsters stand out from the crowd, but we can show you 10 hipster signs that you should keep on the lookout for:
