Polyvore Outfit - part 1

There's a site called Polyvore. It's mainly a way to make collages of clothes and accessories. I must admit that until I tried to use it, I didn't think it was something that I would find very useful.

Felted wool vest outfit

An outfit that works with my wool vest. More information on the vest at Flickr and on the rest of the items at Polyvore.

But when I tried it I was hooked. It was so easy to put together something that looked interesting and that I never would have thought of in any other way. Somehow it felt like this could be an easy way to try new things.

Now I have put Polyvore to use. More or less all of the garments that I've made have been sort of isolated, with no plans of how they would interact with other garments. I do like to have unique garments, but sometimes I wish I had put more thought on how to actually use what I make.

But no thing's ever to late! With the help of Polyvore I will make an outfit that matches one of my handmade garments. But that's not it (I like when I can get many things at once). I will also make a fashion illustration of the outfit I've made on Polyvore.

This will be my challenge on the weekends, so expect to see the Polyvore collage shown here as a fashion illustration in about a week.

On the weekdays I'll do the Daily Walk.
