There and back again…

Well I’m back! I had a lovely vacation and now I’m ready to return to blogging. Anyway I didn’t think I would come up with something until this upcoming friday, but apparently something hit me and I wanted to make an outfit revolving around the chestpiece, Everstout. This is a beautiful piece but difficult to match. Most people just match them with Kin-hide Leggings, but I decided to try something a bit different. In the end it turned into a sort of leafy/fall theme.

The Steed of Rhun really matches the outfit perfectly, though if my mini had a warsteed I’m sure it would look even better with it dyed. I was surprised when I found a cloak that perfectly matches the three colours in the the outfit.

Shoulders: Songmaster’s Shoulders (Mirkwood minstrel barter), umber

Back: Wrap of Turning leaves (Harvest Festival barter), dark green

Notes: If you can’t find Everstout from drops or the AH, the Wolfpelt Jacket has the same design and is found in the same place.

Midnight Ranger

ScreenShot00763I wanted to try making an outfit around a chest piece from Dunland. I remembered I always wanted to try making an outfit around this shirt ever since I got in back a while ago. It is a very feminine style chest piece and looks great in just about any colour.

Head: Lesser Arrow of the West Helmet (OD hunter, medallion barter), black

Shoulder: Elegant Silk Mantle (Dunland quest), black

Back: Fine Quiver (crafter T2), black

Chest: Disused Robe of the Dunland Soothsayer (Dunland Quest), black

Hand: Golden Host Gloves of the Twilight (crafted T6), black

Notes: There is a ceremonial version of the helmet in Lalia’s Market. There is also another chest piece with the same design called Rider’s Silken Shirt (rep barter from Theodred’s Riders).
