New Obsession: Polyvore.com

Okay - so I am a clothes horse, as noted in many earlier blogs...but I may have found a solution for how to decrease the amount of shopping I do, but increase my exposure to clothes...www.polyvore.com.

This is a site I read about in an issue of New York magazine and thought I would check it out. Oh, goodness!

I was immediately hooked.

I have already teased you with how much I like the site in my last blog - but I just felt I could really dedicate an entire entry just to this site.

I really enjoy putting outfits together for different events. It's a fun and challenging exercise. Sometimes I'll come across a pair of shoes, earrings or a bag on the site or in a magazine, and I can build an entire outfit around that. Sometimes I have actual events in my own life (video shoots, working from home, dinner with friends, show openings/closings, date night) that I'd like to come up with different outfits and accessorize for. This site saves me from standing in my closet in my underwear for an hours wondering where to start. It also helps me to see what other "basics" would be great for me to have on hand to build a variety of outfits.

Additionally, there is an entire community and thousands of sets to look at for ideas. Really, you can create anything!

The best part about the site is that it's not just tweens. The woman in the New Yorker article is a professional woman who just happens to like clothes. Of course there is a huge Twilight following here - but that is kind of everywhere, now isn't it?

Here's the link to my sets...if you like clothes, check out the site!
