If you're really into the hipster vibe of wearing plaid shirts, Ray-Ban sunglasses and having a mustache, you should definitely consider investing in this hipster cushion by Fowndry for your living space. The cushion is designed to look like an old-school, vintage plaid button-up.

This hipster [couch cushion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sander-series) deceivingly looks like a [soft, cotton button-up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cabin-flannel), but it's actually made from polyester fibers. The cushion features a red and black plaid shirt cover with a dainty fold over pocket and a pair of white Ray-Bans hanging expertly from the pocket. This cushion would be a great way to add some color and flair to your living room or bed. Or if you're looking for a bohemian significant other, you could snuggle up against the [plaid button-up cushion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tartan-shuttle-weave-rug) until you find the perfect hipster lover.
