I AM registered on Polyvore, but have not done much with it at all. I am a pinterest fan!</p> <p><a href="http://pinterest.com/mmillsmargesson/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/mmillsmargesson/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566733 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 01:53:11 +0000 Victoria 566733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I love this blog, and I think she does awesome outfit capsules! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566718 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 01:44:37 +0000 Lisa 566718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm clueless on how to use polyvore but I really enjoy the "paper doll" outfit combinations that are often done on this site. <a href="http://theviviennefiles.blogspot.com/2012/03/packing-my-usual-paris-in-grey-and.html" rel="nofollow">http://theviviennefiles.blogsp.....y-and.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566649 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 00:33:12 +0000 Beth 566649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not familiar enough with how Polyvore works to use it, but I love looking at others' sets.</p> <p>I've been playing with Stylebook, but I can't get my pictures to work right so I've given up in aggravation for now:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566015 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 15:01:53 +0000 JennyAnne 566015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing what others have created but don't use it myself. It's just too much time I could spend doing other things... like posting on here or doing some knitting or sewing. I see how it could be fun and addictive, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566013 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 15:01:16 +0000 goldenpig 566013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love seeing Polyvore style collages and Lyn's Stylebook outfit posts. I haven't had the time to start learning how to do those but would love to be able to do it someday. For now I just posted some of my wardrobe contents in Pinterest at <a href="http://pinterest.com/goldenpig/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/goldenpig/</a>, but even that is a little old--I haven't updated it in a month or two. I would spend so much more time doing fashion-related stuff if I could, but I still have a bunch of work and family life to tend to first! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-566002 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 14:53:47 +0000 Inge 566002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never used Polyvore for outfit creation, but do visit the site regularly for inspiration: either to see which combinations people come up with for a particular item, or to see what they are doing with a new trend.</p> <p>I believe several YLF'ers use Photoshop to edit their pictures and put together collages? Before posting a pic, I also quickly run it through Photoshop to adjust the lighting and crop an image. Only the very basic stuff, though, I'd love to learn how to use it properly. (it's on my to-do list;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565910 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 13:44:15 +0000 nicoleb 565910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've made exactly one set on Polyvore because i wanted to add it to Pinterest. I visit off and on when i'm looking for inspiration on using a specific item i already have or something i'm considering purchasing but not 100% sold on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565662 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 04:14:51 +0000 Freckles 565662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never used any of them but adore when you guys use it. I have a beautiful picture as an inspiration that I can replace the items with what is in my closet and see if it works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565433 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 01:26:40 +0000 rae 565433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wanted to add that I mainly use my closetcouture for when I want to do a mock up to see how a wish list item would play with my current wardrobe. I don't check out other outfit sets, and the only closet I browse is Mo's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565412 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 01:13:01 +0000 velvetychocolate 565412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While I don't use Polyvore myself, I wanted to say that I *love* looking at Polyvore outfit combinations that others have come up with, especially Angie's formulas. I find it much easier to 'get' what the idea/formula is saying when I see it in a Polyvore layout somehow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565357 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 00:15:39 +0000 taylor 565357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only use Polyvore for outfit inspiration and it has helped me locate hard to find items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565235 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 21:48:43 +0000 catgirl 565235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love to but I don't have the time. Same with Pinterest. I get most of my fashion fix here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565231 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 21:43:52 +0000 rae 565231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use closetcouture like Mo does. I am behind on maintaining my wardrobe record there, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565187 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 20:52:13 +0000 citygirldc 565187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a polyvore account that I never used. Apparently I had opened an account 2 years ago and forgot all about it. I'm loving the pinterest also. Modgrl and Jem I'll check you site outs too. </p> <p><a href="http://pinterest.com/citygirldc/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/citygirldc/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565054 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 18:49:11 +0000 Jem 565054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like seeing other's polyvore sets, but I've never made any.

It took me too long to figure out how to use it to create something I could be proud of. I'm sure it gets easier as you do it more and get used to the process, I just don't have that much time to mess with it. </p> <p>I use pinterest more than polyvore these days - <a href="http://pinterest.com/rita_berson/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/rita_berson/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-565033 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 18:33:53 +0000 Mo 565033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have done a handful but could never figure out how to import my own items, so I switched over to Closetcouture to catalog my own items.

Polyvore confuses me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-564988 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 18:06:03 +0000 CocoLion 564988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the concept of these tools and used them a couple of times when My Shape was in business (they had a tool on their website but you could only add certain items). However I haven't used Polyvore lately although I might have joined them.</p> <p>Now I use Pinterest but not for outfit creation, for inspiration boards. These are two I am working on:<br /> <a href="http://pinterest.com/cocolion/rock-style-inspiration/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/cocolion/.....spiration/</a></p> <p><a href="http://pinterest.com/cocolion/world-style-inspiration/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/cocolion/.....spiration/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-564974 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 17:45:27 +0000 Meredith1953 564974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Polyvore as well as PInterest. I haven't tried making a set yet though. Still learning the ins and outs. Doesn't Lynn use it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/survey-polyvore-anyone#post-564966 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 17:38:36 +0000 Greg 564966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you use Polyvore to create visual outfits? We have done so every once in a while (see example attached) and we wondered how many YLF members are doing this too.</p> <p>If you are doing so (or have done so in the past) please share a link to your Polyvore creations in this thread.</p> <p>Also, if you use any other similar tool for creating outfit visuals, please share that too. </p>
