Yellow and gray - one of my favorite color combinations...



If you've been following my blog for very long, you know I love making these collages or "sets" on Polyvore. If you haven't tried it yet, I must warn you, it's verah, verah addictive. It's like shopping without spending any money.

Candy apples, cherries and polka dots...

As you probably know by now, I used to have an addiction to making these sets on Polyvore. Today, I am sharing with you some of my sets which feature red.

More pink on Polyvore...

A couple of Pink Saturdays ago, I introduced you to an addiction of mine... Polyvore. It's a site that allows you to make these wonderful collages or sets.


I have made so many pink sets, I figured Pink Saturday would be the perfect place to show them off.


As I said last time, it's almost like shopping. But it doesn't cost a cent.

It's a little like playing dress-up too. I mean, I would never have a place to wear this. But that doesn't mean, I don't love it.



You can enter your sets in contests. I haven't won any but it's fun to enter.


You can look at and comment on sets made by other people. Statement pieces...

I am soooo loving these hot-pink suede boots but, seriously, they aren't very practical. But on Polyvore, anything goes. (As for the short-shorts, let's not even go there...)

You are by no means, limited to only fashion sets. I sent this to a friend of mine, who is crazy for pink, on her birthday.


The possibilities are endless. You are only limited by your imagination.

So, if you weren't persuaded to try Polyvore last time I posted about it, pop on over and give it a whirl. You will want to plan to be there awhile. It's so much fun!

I make these collages when I'm bored... and sometimes even when I'm not...

I can't tell you how excited when I first discovered Polyvore. It's a site where you make collages (or sets). It's so easy and so much fun and I can always use another creative outlet (especially a free one).

(Warning! Polyvore is extremely addictive!)

Here's one of the first sets I made.

In a nutshell, here's how it works...

If you want a pink coat in your set, just type in "pink coat," and wah-lah hundreds of them appear right on your screen. Then you drag the coat of your choice to your set. Add any accessories you want and pretty soon you have this...


To me, this is totally like shopping on an unlimited budget. If you see something you like, just grab it and it's yours (sans the credit card bill).

The great part is, if you see something you can't live without, for real, just click on it and you can purchase it. How great is that?

I bought this sweater and I love it. (Well, not just this sweater. There are others too.)

Anyway...

Today, I am posting some pink sets for the Pink Saturday party.


The possibilities are truly endless. You can even do rooms.


So, next time you're bored (or even when you're not) go play around on Polyvore. I promise you will have fun. And you'll probably go back. (Again, and again, and again...)

(If you go all the way to the bottom of this page, you can scroll through more of my sets.)
