It can be hard to lead the hipster lifestyle as, let's face it, hipsters are constantly being judged for being "too trendy," but maybe adding some luxury-inspired items such as those found in the Upper Class AW11 collection will change that -- or, at the very least, alleviate some of the backlash.
The Upper Class AW11 collection is a new fashion label hailing from the United States that has set the tone for hipster style and future designs. Yet it isn't all glory and glam: Although the warped Chanel logo can be seen here and there, the brand is inspired by various charities as well.
Founder Laura Mendrin is set to give a portion of her Upper Class AW11 collection profits to LoveArt&. Last season her chosen organization was A.Skate.
