Lilac Lust by lestadoll

So, I happen to be in absolute lust with Polyvore.com. I'll wait a little while to see if this lust blossoms into full blown love.

For those of you that don't know Polyvore is this great little site that"lets you mix and match images from anywhere on the web, to create outfits, interior designs, or any kind of collage."


Paris Chic by lestadoll

TO give you an idea of what this site is all about, here's a little creation I whipped up. It's prepster plaid meets paris chic.

What do you think? I wanted the look to something that you could put together, in one store, on the cheap, so I all the items I used can be found at Forever21.com.

So, for anyone who's spent hours constructing a collage from carefully canibalized fashion magazines, here is your holy grail. There's no limit to the images you can craft. Check it out.
