What Are You Wearing?

I suck at describing clothing. I should have the ladies of the thread design my Tahir half-elf's outfit.

Edited for poor grammer.

You look yourself over with your own black eye...

You see Shimmerain K'aryeu.
He appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
He appears to have come of age and taller than average. He has stunning, sparkling violet-flecked black eyes and pale skin. He has very long, flowing shadowy black hair plaited into two braids with a pair of black leather hair-ties woven through them. He has a delicate face, a small nose and long pointed ears.
He has a silhouetted rosebud tattoo on his wrist, and a ring of tiny black stars encircling his neck.
He is in good shape.
He is holding an elegantly contorted dark orase hunting staff with a worn leather-wrapped grip in his right hand and a black-veined grey villswood staff adorned with a circle of elegantly carved thorns in his left hand.
He is wearing a black-glazed mournbloom pomander on an ebony silk ribbon, a shadowy velvet cloak that enfolds him in stygian darkness, a set of hooded black leather armor, a rugged black leather backsheath adorned with rough-cut black deathstones, some pitch black leg-wraps, and a pair of matte black boots striated with pale grey hues.

Edited to add that those leathers were just altered by Orkys to look :

You are wearing a suit of elegant dark leather armor beautifully scaled with scorched grey plates

Wow, LOVE the tattoo..and the bodice is so perfect to show it off, I like that too!

So tired and coughy.. but I like this outfit too, heh, so I had to share.

You see Solorenza.
She appears to be a Nalfein Elf.
She appears to be an adult and tall. She has dark-rimmed pink albino eyes and alabaster skin. She has chin-length, feathery snow white hair styled in calculated disarray. She has high cheekbones.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a pair of slick mirror-lensed spectacles, a dainty gossamer satchel, a soft cream cashmere midriff jacket, an open-necked white cotton shirt, a triangular garnet silk net hip-scarf, some fine pale linen pants with drawstring waist ties, and some pointed garnet satin slippers.

Spectacles:
Glistening platinum forms a thin wire frame for the spectacles, giving almost as clear a reflection as the lenses themselves. Meticulous polishing has ensured the lenses remain scratch-free and mirror-like, giving nothing away of what might be behind them.

Hip-scarf:
Thin twists of deep red silk have been knotted in an ornate fashion to form a square open weave net, with tiny silver bells all along the edges. The netting has been folded over to create a triangle, causing the unevenly spaced bells to chime against each other easily.

I'm just in love with her spectacles. I know they're not at all in period but I can't help it. They're just hot and I can't resist.

Something simple for sitting around in the sun.


You see Linsha Sinti.
She appears to be an Illistim Elf.
She appears to be very young and tall. She has tilted azure-limned pale green eyes and tanned skin. She has very long, silky mahogany hair bound into a twisted infinity knot by some ebony hand-painted hairsticks. She has long, gracefully pointed ears with a slight bend at the tips. She has full, softly curved pale pink lips.
She has a dark red broken heart tattoo on her wrist, and a dew-kissed flower tattoo on her back.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a slender silver-rimmed crystal amulet, a pale crystal shard, a fitted black corset edged in atrous hand-tatted lace, some calf-high white linen pants, and some open-toed black satin slippers with a delicate ankle clasp.


Edit: Linsha won the piece of glowbark that was being raffled and it was made into a shield for my Ivas worshiping rogue. I had to share it.

It's a smoke-carved glowbark aegis.

The gleaming surface of the glowbark aegis has been treated with a red-tinted lacquer, giving it a sanguine cast. Against this background, a ring of interlocking smoke tendrils has been carved, forming a bas-relief pattern at the edge of the shield. Ground emerald dust has been sealed to the wood in some of the smoke tendrils, the inherent phosphorescence of the wood making the smoke seem to writhe with a life of its own during the proper phase of the moons.

Is that one of the new hairstick styles!?!

If so, Jharra took an idea I submitted to her! (Or...someone else is just as creative as me :D)

So off-topic, but can anyone else post the different styles of all those hairthingies?

The hairstyling stuff is Sirina's, 'cause she rules. I think she got the idea from the cultural pageants last year. But, hm, I can post a couple. Ignore my character's short hair when it looks like it's a long style, heh!


She has chin-length, feathery snow white hair pulled back from her face with a delicately carved ivory haircomb.

She has chin-length, feathery snow white hair falling loosely around her face and adorned with a delicately carved ivory haircomb.

She has chin-length, feathery snow white hair pulled back over one ear with a delicately carved ivory haircomb.

Must...have....

You see Lady Michiko Lawyk the Woodswoman.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She appears to have come of age and short. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and flawless, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair caught in a casual roll at the nape of her neck by some twisted platinum hairsticks. She has a finely contoured aristocratic face, an upturned nose and petite, delicate ears that taper to slight points.
She has a series of intricately etched slender silver rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an elegant choker of silver-linked discs of pure onyx, a flowing black dupioni silk cloak clasped with a cluster of silver stars, a delicate black lace corset, a pair of low-slung fitted black linen pants, and a pair of slender black silk sandals with delicate wooden heels.

Hairsticks, choker, and corset are off-the-shelf. The pants are just a short alter.

Yeah, the cruise is FILLED with awesome off-the-shelf stuff. Every night I race through the ship again and pick out stuff to wear the next day and it's all awesome.
