Polyvore, the shopping and style community, is one of these sites. It gives users a simple template for creating delectable fashion plates. It boasts more than 20 million monthly users, who have created nearly 100 million photo sets, according to Polyvore's director of community, Nadia Hussain.
"Our goal is to democratize fashion," Hussain tells Mashable. "We want to empower people to think about their sense of style."
Founded in 2007, Polyvore is a place where users can shop for name-brand items and stumble upon new items. There's also a community aspect -- users can follow each other and share creative fashion sets. Some users have gotten a huge following because of their sets, like Patricia Coelho, whose dark and romantic creations have received over 10 million views.
There's no need to be a fashion buff to get started. Creating a lush photo set is possible for "anyone inspired by beautiful things," Hussain says.
Here are four ways users can make their own Vogue-worthy fashion sets.
