THE 'IT' KNITS
We all know it's turned to Winter in the last few days and with the wind and rain a number one factor when deciding what to wear in the cold mornings, we recommend a few of our best knitted jumpers and cardigans for you all. There is no better feeling than being covered in some warm, cosy knitwear while you're walking around town, waiting for a bus or sitting in class. The best thing of all about buying from COW you know you won't bump into anyone wearing the same one!

STREET SMART: Your Style
Another hit of our coolest customer and staff style from the last few weeks. We get excited to see what people are wearing and how they style it. Using high street, vintage and designer and incorporating the new trends to create their own looks!
We also noticed the tartan trend running through all cities and it's one of our faves for the Autumn, so good to see it's not just us.

MEET THE TEAM! Terri- Jayne Baker
Say Hi to one of our cutest and most hard working members from Cow Sheffield! Terri-Jayne is a trend setter and the heart and soul of the Sheffield store.
We asked Terri-Jayne to go through her job role, why she (obvs) loves it and find out what are her A/W13 must haves..

HI TERRI-JAYNE!
HOW LONG HAVE YOU WORKED FOR COW AND WHAT IS YOUR ROLE?
My role is Store Manager in Sheffield and I have been there for 2 and 1/2 years! Which has gone crazy fast!
WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT BEING A STORE MANAGER?
I love working with such a creative team, every day is different, big deliveries are always exciting, the visual side of my job is what I enjoy the most. Creating trend areas and outfit builds to inspire customers when they come shopping in store!
HOW WOULD DESCRIBE YOUR OWN STYLE?
My style changes everyday and transcends through seasons but right now I like mixing boyish styles with wild vintage prints, usually basic tees with anything high waisted and crazy one-off knitwear pieces! I'll never stop wearing cute floral dress and I'm a lover of a great detailed collar on anything. Sequins and velvet are also a must!
WHY IS VINTAGE CLOTHING IMPORTANT IN STYLE NOWADAYS AND WHY DO YOU THINK IT'S BECOME SO POPULAR?
Vintage and secondhand clothing have always been a great way to create personal style and express an individual personality. Thrift shopping is a great way for everyone shopping on a budget, you can always find real cheap gems. I love it when someone asks me where I got a certain piece from and I say "I found it in a charity shop for 99p!"
WHAT A/W '13 TRENDS ARE YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT?
Autumn is my all time favourite season for fashion! I'm not a huge trend follower , so I wear what I like and I usually look at street styles for inspiration. I like to see how individuals take on new trends! I'm a massive hoarder of clothes and accessories and I think you can never go wrong wearing any kind of vintage. It never goes out of style! I do seem to have stocked up on a lot of tartan over the years so those have been worn more these past few weeks.
WHAT 3 ITEMS DO YOU THINK WE ALL NEED FOR THE COLDER MONTHS APPROACHING?
Novelty fun knitwear, gingerbread lattes and mittens on a string!

TOUGH GUYS: AW '13 Punk Trend
Skinheads and Punk subcultures are very different and carry quite an angry and hostile history with them but to avoid me rewriting my University dissertation again today we will only be talking about the fashion and style that emerged and has been recreated for years since.
It's an instantly recognisable style which has been moving into the mainstream for years now. The look and culture was at it's strongest during the 1980s but began in the late 60's and went hand in hand with common values of anti-establishments, non conformity, direct action and not selling out, which makes it a funny one to be so on trend! There was a strong unity in style and almost 'gang' mentality but we look up to their DIY and individual ethic which is something we do believe in so we have chosen this style as one of our favourite A/W '13 trends.
Here are some classic punks who we do look up to for what they do, believe in and of course their icon styles!

PATTI SMITH
JOAN JETT AND BLONDIE
Here are some classic skin head girls who have the iconic denim, Fred Perry polo shirt, Dr Martins, braces and skinhead look which we all know, more recently from the 2006 Shane Meadows movie This is England which caused a stir and brought a huge skinhead revival back to life!
This is a brilliant book.. even if you don't care much for the history, origin, music, attitude and lifestyle which is all covered in there, you may enjoy the clear, raw, emotional photography!
To bring us more up to date here are some images from the February A/W13 shows which show inspirations and ideas from this time:
Here are a few of our favourite images that show old and modern images that represent this trend:
