Thanks for the compliment; it takes one to know one.
I started So I Met This Guy as a way to share my crazy
escapades with other women, (and men) to inspire them
to live for themselves and do what feels good. It is about
taking actions that reflect one’s wants and needs. People
tend to get caught up in what is expected of them and
focus on fitting a certain mold; the most important thing
you can do for yourself and those around you is be true to
yourself. I also wanted to open women up to the idea of
not being shy or afraid to express them selves sexually.

BRATZ.
The infamous pouty lipped dolls 'With
A Passion 4 Fashion' have been around since
2001 and have had such major success, it's
actually quite unbelievable! These fashion dolls
pushed boundaries within the doll industry and
even influenced fashion designers and real life
fashion trends! I have watched them grow into
the phenomenon they are and even saw them
overtake Barbie as the #1 selling fashion doll at
the peak of the Bratz brands success. The dolls
stand for fashion (of course) friendship and
diversity which is very inspiring in itself! They
even had an episode of Project Runway Canada
all about them.....just goes to show how
influential these fashion dolls are in the fashion
industry!! Sassy, fashion forward and totally
inspiring.....the Bratz are a big inspiration in
my work and very fun to sketch and design for!
Who knows..... maybe I'll end up designing a
collection for the Bratz one day!
JESSICA RABBIT.
Jessica Rabbit, the iconic animated
character from the movie 'Who Framed
Roger Rabbit' has had a major influence on
my illustrations since the day I watched the
movie for the first time. I was completely
besotted when I was younger and I still am
as a teenager. I would watch the movie, pause
the video and sketch Jessica Rabbit over and
over again until I perfected it! Jessica Rabbit is
glamorous, sexy, and impossibly perfect....well
she is animated! Still, this hasn't stopped her
becoming an icon for loads of women....some
go as far as having cosmetic surgery to try and
look like Jessica! That signature side swept
hair covering one eye, her sparkling red gown
that hugs her curves in all the right places
and shows off her clevage. Not forgetting her
super high red stiletto heels!! Drawing Jessica
has helped me perfect drawing a female form
which is why she is a big inspiration. Looking
at some of my fashion illustrations, I can see
where I may have subconsciously added some
Jessica Rabbit flair.....she is embedded in my
brain still after all these years haha!

CHARLENE
CHARLENE O'ROURKE
www.struttlamode.blogspot.com
Age: 23
Location: Kent, United Kingdom
Job: Fashion/Costume Designer
STYLING TIPS:
1. Update old cardigans and jackets
with a fur stole.
2. Experiment with colours such as
wearing red with pink or green with blue.
3. Don't restrict yourself to womenswear
when shopping. Look in the mens sections
for jewellary and oversized shirts
and blazers.
If you were in any doubts about how to
rock autumn/winter's trickest trends our
latest crop of style stars have it covered.
From Charlene's bold statement looks
paired with a fierce fringe and gorgeous
red pout to Shareen's impeccable vintage
outfits sweetly accessorized with
layered necklaces there's a lot to take
in. We're making notes right now.

Age: 26
Location: Miami Beach, FL
Job: Owner of Vintage Mavens
( Vintage Online Boutique)
STYLING TIPS:
1. I love wearing a winged black eyeliner (the "cat" eye)
because it gives my entire outfit a more vintage feel.
2. Don't be afraid to splurge on classic staple pieces
for your closet. I have a black Dolce & Gabbana pencil
skirt that I can pair with just about anything for a variety
of looks. Plus, it has lasted me over six years now.
3. Adding accessories is a great way to take your look
to the next level. I tend to wear oversized cocktail rings
every day, whether I'm wearing a plain tee and shorts or
a vintage party dress.

following. And it's now stocked in several boutique

Topshop store on Oxford Circus where the brand's
goegeous offering have been flying off the rails.
