question about polyvore
Permalink Closed


i only recently discovered this site and have a question on how to use it.  i want to use it periodically to get ideas for outfits - what's the best way to do that?  for example, what's the best way to brouse outfits people have made?  can i enter a specific item, do it by store, or what?  for ex, i tried to see outfits made with black skinny pants and it just showed me a bunch of different pants but no outfit groupings.  

any ideas?  what do you do?

it's kind of tedious, but what you can do is get on the site, then at the top of the screen type "black skinny pants" in the search bar. In the drop-down box pick "items" and then click "search." When you find a specific item you can click on it and see sets made with it. But the thing is, then you'll have to go through every individual black skinny pants and do that. I don't know a better way to do it. I think the searching system on polyvore is pretty crappy. It's OK enough if you do keywords like "casual" or "rockabilly" or something like that, but anything that's more than one word is kind of a crapshoot.

You have to scroll down a bit to find some but this blogger  puts together polyvore sets often and most  are super cute!

I love FFM! Also, I search by designer and an item's style name, like J Crew Victoria and that always works.

I love searching by color.  It's so cool seeing all the monochromatic shades on screen.
