WEEKS OF FASHION: WHAT THEY WORE

While following the action of the Spring/Summer 14 shows for new trends of next season you can't help but notice the different styles of the fashion crowd rushing around. As you know we love looking to the streets for the most exciting and unique styles. From stylists, bloggers, photographers, musicians, dj's and models running around, the best place to look for inspiration is the streets! 

Here's a few of our favourite styles from big, bright and bold to darker, grungy and simple! 

Camera, Collars and Colour

Rockin' in black leathers

Layered checked shirt and leather! Perfect.

One colour head to toe is brave but the ultimate Co-ord

Vamped up Boyfriend Jeans

Keep it simple, sweatshirts are the new fashion must have

Pleated mini skirts with a good knit makes for the ultimate in effortless and cool

Jazz up your leather shorts with a sequinned jacket. Perfect day to night.

 Clashing prints! Toned down with a denim shirt.

Super chic with a pop of colour!

Statement vintage aztec print! Enough said.

Pretty pink punked up with a leather jacket and beanie. Trend perfection.

Super flares, good print and texture mix with a retro silhouette 

Checks, spots, colour, leopard print, stripes.. more is more

If in doubt, tie a checked shirt around it.

Things To Come..

.. 2013 is going to turn out to be a very eventful year. Our diaries are already filling up with exciting new movies, exhibitions, gigs and more. Here are a few things we are looking forward to attending over the next few months.

THE GANGSTER SQUAD - in cinemas January 11th 2013



Set in LA in 1949 this Gangster movie is first on our list to see this January. With Sean Penn running the shots through the streets, eye candy cops Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin trying to keep him in line and the red head love interest played by Emma Stone, there is definitely plenty of action to wake you up from the January blues. We are also looking out for the classic 1940's zoot suits, glamour and vintage style that comes with this movie.

LONDON FASHION WEEK - London - February 15th - February 19th 2013



Here at COW we love vintage and retro clothes and accessories but as a fashion lover you can't ignore the drama and excitement through London Fashion Week. We will be sure to be checking blogs, watching twitter feeds and hopefully sending people to some shows to keep up to date with what next big trend is coming through for Autumn/ Winter 2013. This gives us the chance to make sure we are picking the best pieces for our stores and online for you to filter these trends and pick up the style for less.

DAVID BOWIE IS - Exhibition at the V&A - 23rd March - 28th July 2013


We can guarantee a COW road trip to London for this one. A retrospective of the work and life of David Bowie. The show compiles over 300 objects from the legend's career including instruments, hand written lyrics, costumes, photography and much more. As a major influence in Fashion and Music and also a bit of a weird heartthrob for all young girls whilst watching The Labyrinth this will be a great exhibition to spend time with friends, family or on your own taking in all of the wonder that this man projects.

THE GREAT GATSBY - in cinemas - 10th May 2013


Well what can we say.. It's finally here. Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire and Isla Fisher all come together head to toe in 1920's attire. With a story line based around loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings as well as the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits, what could go wrong. We can only wait in anticipation of probably one of the most super stylish movie releases this year by shining up our pearls and polishing up on our Charleston. 

Keep your eye out for other events we want to share with you on here, twitter and facebook and let us know what you're most excited about!

Milan Fashion Week

Outfit One:
Prada Top: £18

Outfit Two:

Outfit Three:

Outfit Four:

Outfit Five:

Inspired by Milan Fashion week which kicks off this Wednesday we thought we would pull together some vintage pieces featured on the www.wearecow.com from the renowned Italian fashion houses, before the AW12 collections take to the catwalks.

Italian fashion is all about an attitude and tends to respond to long term trends rather than seasonal changes, whacking a made in Italy label on your clothes automatically denotes class and quality. This can be seen in these designer pieces from different eras that are still relevant today.

My personal fave is definatley the Versace Denim Jacket, absolute steal at £58 quid.
Versace's original interpretation of fashion and somewhat exhibitionist and brightly coloured designs can be seen here.

So while we eagerly anticipate what new looks will hit the catwalks in the fashion capital. Why not head to wearecow.com and invest in a timeless vintage piece that will transcend from season to season.
