Polyvore: Representative of Real-life Fashion?

One of the most fantastic new-ish websites is Polyvore. By letting users create "sets" (which are basically collages of his or her fave items of clothing and/or accessories) Polyvore has opened a huge double-door of inspiration. The users on Polyvore can be anyone....middle-school girls obsessed with glitter....high school girls longing for the end of adolescence and the beginning of new adventures....stay-at-home moms letting out their creative energies....and even seasoned fashion designers are all taking part.

This collage I think represents the very essence that makes Polyvore so cool. The clothes pictured are easily accessible almost anywhere and can be purchased at any price point. The Chanel bag is obvs not accessible to everyone yet is something everyone dreams of owning one day, but also there is the small image of a Harry Potter book thrown in there too--an everyperson.

So check out Polyvore! Not even just for the trends...but see what's trendy outside of the "fashion world."
