NEW WEBSITE // NEW WEBSTE // NEW WEBSITE

You may have heard us shouting from the roof tops as well as here on the blog, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, that we are launching a Brand New Website this Friday 6th December!! As you can imagine we are pretty excited about this! In the last 2 months our web team has expanded from just two of us to a team of four, this has given us the chance to really focus on creating an inspiring website to reignite your love for We Are Cow and introduce a whole new bunch of customers who would may be wary of shopping vintage online!

The difference between this website and our last is that all items online are chosen by us, by picking out the best items from deliveries we receive from around the world. We have created a website that will continue to show one off, individual, vintage pieces to fuel your own style but also show how you can stay on trend and how wearing vintage could be the future of avoiding that embarrassing moment when you bump into someone with the exact same item of clothing as you. This is most important to us! Our new Trend section will help to navigate you through the most recent AW'13 trends with items chosen especially for that customer.


We think vintage has become so popular that people have forgotten why they love it and as avid vintage fans we are here to put that spark back into it. We always show our favourite street styles and looks and we think it is so important to have an individual style and that can be head to toe vintage or mixing it up with high street and designer. Whatever your style we are sure we will have something for you. 


With a dedicated team now we will make sure to keep the website constantly changing by adding relevant features, showing new Blogger's Choice, Street Style, Get The Look, Inspiration pages, Trends, our Blog and most importantly we are aiming to upload around 200 items per week that you will be able to search through easily thanks to our refine search tools such as category, size, brand, colour and price. All shot and modelled on our fantastic group of models who we approached because we love their own personal style, each male and female model shows how the item fits and wears it with a real life feel. We have kept all prices low so there will be no nasty surprises at the checkout, just quality one off, hand picked, fashion forward items for a reasonable price!


Before we launch the new website we have a Sale on our current site to make sure we don't have to upload any items that people have seen before, so don't miss out on some super bargains on there

We really hope everyone is as excited as us and you will enjoy shopping on the absolutely brand new WE ARE COW Website!!

See you on the other side

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.

WEEKS OF FASHION

From New York, London, Milan and Paris the hottest fashion pack have been travelling round the world following the next big thing! The shows that ran over the last 4 weeks have been full of the newest designers and trends that will have everyone talking till next season. It's just turned Autumn to us lot but some people live to pre-order straight from the catwalks and probably have cramp from tweeting #FW so much!

Here we have a quick recap of the shows and have pulled out the Summer trends we can expect to see in stores, billboards and glossy mags for the next season. We will keep going back to these too and also taking a look at what people were wearing to the shows. 

THE TRENDS:

- SCRAPBOOKING
There were a few shows that included some looks with a real home made feel. Looks that reminded us of that perfect feeling when you finish a full sketchbook and you have fabric samples hanging out, threads and scrap paper stuck to it.
We all love a good clashing print but these looks were like clashing prints, textures, colours and text all thrown together with some pva glue, Art Attack style and we love it!!




- SHINY WHITES
It's Summer so there for white is a colour of choice and you won't get away without seeing some fresh white looks in the shows. This season those white pieces were brought to life with interesting fabrics that were layered, structured, sheer, silky and technical and the tone definitely held it's own throughout all shows.



- SHRINK TO FIT
Denim is a great fabric for the Summer and this year the designers have decided to dress it all up all prim and proper like. There is no sign of a shredded pair of jeans, salvage or decoration this season (apart from Ashish), just clean lines and fitted denim. Denim is probably the best fabric ever so we are going to be pulling all of ours out again.



- SICKLY SWEET 
Sorry folks but it looks like the pastel colour palette is also going to be around for the next season. The amount of pastel, candyfloss looks that were included in numerous collections proved that it is stuck here like bubblegum.
