As usual, it wasn’t easy picking this week’s ‘Naughty Hipster Of The Week‘ – our weekly competition exposing local hipsters who go that extra mile. But nose rings, laddered stockings, daisy dukes and 14-hole Doc Martins seem to do the trick..
Before we begin, two bits of news. Firstly, congrats to Miles, who came forward as the hipster within 24 hours with this extraordinary proof of life. If only he got in touch after 24 hours, then Chris, who took the pic, would have won the Pumas!
Secondly we just wanted to remind you that the rules state clearly that the hipster CAN be looking at the camera, as long as it’s not posed and it’s AS you take the picture – which often happens.
If this competition is all new to you – read the rules below at the bottom.
Right, moving swiftly on..
We got this from Steven P:
Dear Seth,
I was minding my own vibe recently at my local water hole (The Power and Glory, in the Union Kloof neighbourhood), when I noticed this couple. At first glance not too much to think about and then things started to unfold… Firstly, check out the ladder in the stocking, definitely part of the punk ‘look’.
Then, boom! patent leather Doc Martens. So in right know. Keep going up past the stonewashed ‘mini jean’ or Daisy Dukes and check out the lace netting on the arm, very vintage. Further up, try a little 90’s inspired fake neck tattoo bangle and finally, just to really nail it nose ring with a beanie!
What do you think?
Cheers,
Stevie.
What do I think? I think it’s bloody marvellous, Steven – that’s what I think! Truly naughty. So many things to take in. Lace, beanie, nose-ring, stockings, torn, daisy dukes, docs – that’s taken it STRAIGHT into the naughty category!
Good luck!
So, according to our rules, this naughty hipster has 24 hours to contact us with proof that she is the naughty hipster in the photograph. So if you know her, tell her to email editor@2oceansvibe.com and she will get a brand new pair of Puma shoes if she can prove it is her. See Terms & Conditions below.
Do you know her? Give her a heads up and make her a winner! I’m sure she will appreciate a new pair of Puma shoes.
If she DOESN’T claim the Pumas in 24 hours (5pm tomorrow) then the person that sent this in (Steven, mentioned above) gets the Pumas.
Good luck to the rest of you, as you hunt down your very own naughty hipster.
A reminder of the Terms & Conditions:
1) Send in your pictures to editor@2oceansvibe.com with the subject ‘Naughty Hipster’
2) Tell us where you took the picture in Cape Town. Make SURE you tell us which ‘neighbourhood’ it was in. All of Cape Town’s new neighbourhoods can be seen at capetownhoods.co.za. Explain what the naughty hipster was up to. Was he/she talking about single-speed BMXs, for example?
3) The most outrageously-hipster photo of a hipster will be posted every Wednesday on 2oceansvibe.
4) The hipster in the photo will have 24 hours to email us at editor@2oceansvibe.com and prove that he is the hipster in the photo. If he manages to do that within 24 hours of the post going up, he wins a pair of Pumas (any pair of Pumas, excluding the ‘Black Station’ collection).
5) If the naughty hipster in the photo does not claim that prize in 24 hours, then the person who took the photo wins a pair of Puma shoes!
6) You can’t take pics of people you know, or people who know you’re taking the pic (unless they look at the camera at the moment of the photo). ie. no friends and no posing for pics.
So off you go – start hunting those naughty hipsters!
