Chavington

n. A Chav with some degree of class or restraint, who is well aware of the fact. A Chav with a belief in class system within Yob culture, and sees him or herself as being superior. A female Chavington may sport the Croyden facelift but will tie it lower on the head, and use a clip rather than an elastic band or scrunchie. A male Chavington may sport the requisite askew baseball/truckers cap, but it will be in subdued colors, with little or no decoration. Both eschew bling. However, a Chavington is still a Chav.

Sarah and Mike have become Chavingtons since he got a better job. They are always saying this guys a yob, and that girls a slag. And they would rather get a bottle of wine and stay indoors than come to the pub.
