Hipsters are good at “looking the part.” Even with extremely deep pockets, it ain’t easy to fit in while bumming around the Hamptons all summer. Luckily, donning a simple seersucker style will say it all. Consider the white and blue pin-stripe look this season’s cardigan: an old man trend that’s crossing over.

We will admit that the geriatrics are wise. Seersucker is one of the few materials that looks good wrinkled, simply because of the way the soft threads are manufactured. Take a good look at former president George Bush Sr. (above). Dude managed to pull off the relaxed look and still get his lapel popped by junior. So if you wanna live the good life (see: retirement), this might be for you. “HUMP” or “DUMP” the trend after the jump.
