A word whose origins come from the hit television sitcom "Seinfeld". One of the recurring characters, Cosmo Kramer, had been called this (as far as I know, on more than one occasion).
I assume it's supposed to be an insult, referring to the person as someone who thinks they're cool, yet is (according to the insulter) quite the opposite.

Get the Hipster Dufusmug. A Lesbian whom is VERY fashionable and keeps up on the latest trends and styles while staying true to her queer roots. She doesn't get caught up in who's wearing who, she's usually the type to start trends, and surrounds herself with other fashionable like minded queers with style.
Some are skinny boi dykes emboding James dean type vibes, with tight jeans, chuck taylors and a cigg in hand at all times, while more feminine dykes sometimes don pin up styles and vintage personas.
They read NYLON, LULA, FLY, BLACKBOOK, 10, Bon AND W magazine religiously.
A good number of these lesbians mix high end couture with their thrift store finds creating unique looks original to themselves.
The girlier types often get mistaken as "straight" fahionistas.

The characters from "The Itty Bitty Titty Committee" are hipster dykes. Shane, Carmen, Jenny, and Alice from "The L Word". Also Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson are thought of as hipster dykes by some. A bevy of high fashion models including Amanda Moore, Tasha Tilberg, & Jenny Shimizu, in addition to others, some out...some not, fit the look as well.

Get the hipster dykemug. The extra capital invested in a product simply because the value has been increased due to an unauthorized increase in demand due to hipsters paying top dollar for undeserved items.
Man: I payed 200 bucks for that road bike frame on craigslist.
Man 2: Seems as if you got hit with some hipster tax.

Get the Hipster Taxmug. Hipster dancing is the movement done by one who is a hipster at shows and scene clubs. the movment requires not only concentration of the body but of the attitude.
the facial expression must be of a pissed off, mad to be here, bitter at the world scowl.
the body will sway from side to side with feet tapping in sort of a toe touch motion.
the bouncing of the body is subtle and the hands are forced straight down with an occasional snap.
its quite hilarious. sometimes you can add in the quirky dance move such as bringing back a retro move or a move you made up that is only known amongst the group.
im summary: look upset to be here, be drunk off PBR, reak of cigarettes and marc jacobs perfume, wear american apparel and look like an idiot.
it's fun, i do it all the time.

Get the Hipster dancingmug. Because Crystal doesn't eat any vegetables, she's become over weight by eating nothing but cheese pizza. Stupid Hipster Vegetarian!

Get the Hipster Vegetarianmug. (n); A person who follows the latest hipster trends no matter how unbearable they prove to be. Just so they could be more hipster than the next guy.
"Does that guy actually like watching Portlandia and listening to The Growlers?"
"No he's just an artificial hipster."
"No he's just an artificial hipster."

Get the Artificial Hipstermug. The purposeful irony presented by a hipster upon first glance or through deeper investigation, such as conversation. For example, only a hipster would wear a t-shirt that reads: "I'm NOT a Hipster. Believe me." It is also ironic that what hipsters deem as "cool" (or "deck," in hipster talk) is not really deck, but is approved only by members of that group.
Examples of hipster irony include iconic spectator glasses frames, a "casual" but "I'm not trying that hard to be casual" look, bedhead hair, and/or the century-old handlebar mustache comeback "look." Another example: Hipsters listen to music that they admit is crappy but that the band never "sold out." This could then be the topic of a very long discussion.
