Your favorite redhead Disney mermaid takes on the attributes of a hipster with the Hipster Little Mermaid series. Featured on Tumblr blog Under the Sea, the Hipster Little Mermaid depicts the Disney sea creature with a scowl on her face and quintessential hipster glasses on her peepers.
Hipster Little Mermaid captures what it means to be a hipster by shunning conventions and mainstream ways of thinking. Hipster Little Mermaid is always on the vanguard of what's cool in a hyperbolic manner (e.g. "I listen to bands...that don't even exist yet") and constantly expressing her anti-establishment attitudes, even within the hipster movement itself (e.g. "Williamsburg? GTFO. Park Slope").
