Meet The Team! Ramario Chevoy

Say Hi to another one of our super stylish team from COW Nottingham Ramario Chevoy!! We asked him a few questions about his influences, what he gets up to and how he manages to rock up looking cool as f*!@ every day!

WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DO YOU DO?

Hello! I am Ramario and I work in Cow Vintage Nottingham as Part Time Sales Advisor.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

I would describe my style as eclectic because I don't have one set style it literally changes everyday.

WHERE DO YOU FIND MOST OF YOUR CLOTHES?

Lol, I find the majority of my clothes at Cow but also online places such as Ebay and other independent designers like Jade Clark, Hyena and Kokon To Zai..

IS THERE ANYONE THAT INFLUENCES YOUR STYLE?

Hmmmmm, this is a hard question but there are a few people who influence me, such as Azelia Banks, Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga. The reason I say these people is because when it comes to fashion they are risk takers and are not scared to wear anything they want and they don't care what people think which is exactly what I'm like.
I think people forget that fashion should be fun and you should never be scared to experiment and try new things. I don't really have any male style influences but I do like the way R&B singer Miguel dresses, but I just feel that men don't take as many risks as women in fashion..  it is 2013 and old fashioned rules are made to be broken in my eyes.

WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE THING IN COW AT THE MINUTE?

My favourite things are the American football vests and jerseys we have in. I love them and I own a few!

YOU HAVE GAINED ALOT OF FOLLOWERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS.. WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE LOVE TO SEE YOUR OUTFITS?

Again this is a hard question to answer but I would probably say they could be interested because they might want to try certain looks I've done but just haven't known how to wear it or put it together so hopefully my daily outfit posts will give them some inspiration.

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY DOING ON YOUR DAYS OFF?

Well I also teach dance so on my days off I will probably doing that or getting my hair done, got to keep it looking fresh! LOL!

WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST GUYS SHOULD BE LOOKING TO WEAR OVER THE SUMMER?

Defo defo defo an American football jersey, snapbacks and shorts!

WHAT 3 THINGS CAN'T YOU LIVE WITHOUT FROM YOUR WARDROBE?

Just 3..? I can't live without everything in my wardrobe but if I had to pick 3 things they would be my Buffalo platform shoes, my hat collection for those days when my hair is looking a little rough and all of my costume jewellery!

 Thanks Ramario!! Love it all and if you want to follow Ramario to see how and what he wears next check out his Instagram:

Get The Look - Chelsea Leyland

Fashion Party goer, Celebrity DJ and all round 'IT' girl Chelsea Leyland is our Get The Look inspiration this week. Surrounded by our other favourite celebs and best friends with Alice Dellal you can't really go wrong at acquiring a cool style. We love how Chelsea's look is predominantly effortless cool with loose fitting vintage tees, hot pants and leather jackets but when she attends premiers and parties she also looks comfortable in a girly dress or trouser suit. So she can pretty much pull anything off..

Here are some of our favourite pieces from the website that we think would easily fit into Chelsea Leyland's wardrobe from COW Vintage.

Cream Lace Blouse - £20

Levi's Denim Jacket - £45

James Quaintance - Get The Look

Every now and again people come into the public eye and you know they will definitely make a mark on us all. Whether it is in Fashion, Art, Movies, or Music, for decades we have been intrigued with an particular attitude and style that we undoubtably want to be involved in.

Today we are looking at the newest member of this group, model and skateboarder James Quaintance who's cocky, rebellious attitude and ability to mix old school style to classic gent to sportswear in the blink of an eye.

COW is a haven of vintage clothes and accessories so, like James Quaintance, you can build up your own style using clothes once used for previous subcultures. Here are some of our favourite pieces we have chosen, inspired by James Quaintance but for you to wear how you wish!
