I signed up for Polyvore a while back after seeing all of these fashion creations on Pinterest. I poked around the site and stuff, but not much else. Tonight I decided to get more involved with it and created my first few "sets". Just simple outfits that I'd pick out for myself to wear - my tastes and style. The one shown here is called House O' Mouse. I love me some Mickey Mouse!
I think that creating these "sets" and "collections" in Polyvore is a lot like window shopping at the mall when I don't have money to blow. Grown-ups playing dress-up. Except with Polyvore, we are playing dress-up at home. We don't have to drive anywhere or fight crowds! We don't have to fix our hair or put on make-up! We don't have to get out of our comfy jammies or put on a bra!
The creative part of me - advertising artiste extraordinaire ;-) - is shouting "Yayyy, this is fun!". Designing these sets is sort of similar in the way I go about designing my ads at work. And I do sometimes shout "Yayyy, this is fun!" when I'm at work too - in my head of course. Oh, did I mention I love my job? Anyway, I hear a tangent calling my name.
So get thyself on to Polyvore! You deserve a little creative fun. Besides, what red-blooded woman doesn't love to shop?
How weird! I had no idea what Polyvore was, but then signed up a few days ago from a link on Pinterest. Then I forgot about it, and saw an email from 'Polyvore' and it took me a minute to remember "WHO IS POLYVORE?"
ReplyDeleteI am definitely going to dedicate some time to figuring it out, and playin around. Great, one more thing to suck my time away. Ha Ha! :)
Cute Mickey outfit by the way.
Hi J.R.! Thanks for following my blog! You're right about the stuff that steals away our time. For me it was Farmville, then Pinterest, and now Polyvore. As if work and housework wasn't enough! LOL Take Care
