The word 'Hipster' has always baffled me to no end.  The US/UK differing definitions.  The bad connontations the word comes with which has made it derrogatory.  The dress styles the word is associated with.  It's a big black hole of a word right up there with the likes of 'Indie'.  So an eBay shop named Hipster's Playground Vintage seems somewhat dubious to me.

I'll just have to ignore the name and look at the clothes and their attractive $14.99 starting price.  Though I'm not really an eBay snob who ignores poorly presented eBay auctions with shoddy photos and scant description, it is a bonus when you get very pro-looking images with the right number of close-ups and that are well-styled.  This is precisely what you get at this hipster eBay haven.  There' a select number of items of listed and it's clear that they're all chosen for various trend-nudging merits.  A purple satin dress that's very Lanvin AW07-8.  A tuxedo dress that mirrors the 3.1 Phillip Lim one that Irina Lazareanu wore to the Costume Institute Gala last year.  Oh, and of course, dabs of that azure blue.  The trick is that they make their vintage pieces 'look' absolutely pristine and without any traces of age.  Whether that is the case or not, I shall see as I'm watching a number of the listings at the moment. 

80s' purple puff sleeve mini dress // 70s' blue-green tiered lace mini dress

70s' layered kimono ruffled party dress // 70s' lace tiered babydoll dress // 80s' black satin trimmed tuxedo dress

80s' blue sequin dress with black velvet fox tail fur jacket // 80s' black and blue military style dress

60s' striped wool funnel coat // 60s' red-orange mod sheath dress

My final words though are of confusion.  Does any of this say 'Hipster' to you?  I can't really see it myself so I'm calling for an eBay store name change but in the meantime I'll continue the eBay watch.
