Legal Studies...or polyvore?

I thought I had gotten my polyvore-ing out of my system during my bio session, but apparently not. I let it cut into my legal studies study!

I was doing so well; I even refrained from watching the latest episode of boys over flowers! But unfortunately for my gpa...I was sucked in once again to Polyvore. This time, I got a little more creative and started adding backgrounds.

Here is one from my bio craze -

Although this outfit makes me drool, as a set it's a little on the boring side.

Sooo, being inspired by some of the sets I saw on the site...I present you with one of the sets I made during what SHOULD have been Legal Studies study time!

Much prettier, yes? I really think I'm in the spring mode, because I keep seeing these adorable floral, brightly-patterned pieces and feeling the need to build outfits around them. I'm planning on going Spring Break shopping with a friend this weekend, so I guess we'll see what this spring-like itch brings me :)

Okay okay, I shall return to my diligent studying...

Polyvore addict

I just spent the majority of my bio class polyvore-ing...and realized I have a problem.

For those of you who have not stumbled upon the miracle of polyvore, you really have to try it - and by you, I mean people who take interest in fashion and colors and pretty, materialistic things :)

Basically, you start off with a blank slate, and polyvore supplies you with multitudes of clothes, accessories, shoes, etc. to pick from. You can create exciting outfits - you know, those ones that you would want to wear, but never have the courage to - within minutes. It's super easy, and you can easily find many of the items there for purchase. They have stuff from forever21 and wet seal as well as designer clothing, so it doesn't matter what your budget is.

This is my very first polyvore set:

And thus began my fascination with gold jewelry - I used to avoid the stuff like crazy!

Here is my first set from my polyvore craze in bio class -

I started off with the dress, which I LOVE, and built the rest of the outfit from the various colors and patterns.


....as you can see, very addicting.

Happy Polyvore-ing! Friend me so I can see your sets :)
