Wish List Wednesday | Monochrome Haze | Lookbook

I’ve been super busy with work and haven’t really had a chance to get round to much else today. So today’s post is recycled from my new obsession with Polyvore (@thesortinghouse). Polyvore has been around for yonks and I am beyond fashionably late to the party. If you are as lame also missed the memo and have no idea what Polyvore is, continue reading to find out what the dilly o!

Polyvore Lookbook Monochrome Haze

I actually joined Polyvore a while ago but forgot all about it until my recent rediscovery when I was browsing the app store. This mood board was the first thing I did when playing around on Polyvore this time. It’s just random stuff I found while browsing that I chucked together using the ‘create’ section of the site. I tend to wear a lot of black, and I love how striking monochrome is – plus can’t get enough of gold, chunky jewellery so this board is a pretty obvious style concoction for me. When I further inspected Polyvore I found that the interface is so good for online shopping! You can literally follow the link to anything on there and buy it (dangerous much?), easily click through on to related items, search by trends and popular items, or simply get inspiration from other people’s collections and likes. I can’t actually believe how many brands are on there, it is literally crazy. From high end to high street, there’s even niche brands, home and beauty sections available for the hunting. It’s got procrastination and style induced bankruptcy written all over it. I might even go as far as saying that there’s everything your wildest dreams could conjure, but that’s perhaps going a little bit far. Anyway, I’m sure that there is much more to it than what I’m waffling on about.
