Welcome to Gaia! ::

Close. I made a huge post where I appraised all who had asked the night before (at around page 975 or so of the DYB thread), but it was left untouched by all involved but two people. Perhaps, if I can bother to find it again, I'll bring it here.

Here we go. I apologize for the delay, but I hadn't the patience to do them all in one sitting, just one every hour or so (and anyone faulting me for that will be vicously disemboweled by Domo domokun ). While it's true that I have a lot of free time nowadays, I do try to use it on a lot of different things. 3nodding

The hair is cute. Not a lot of people use it, which makes it noticeable, which is good. The jacket and the shirt and the bag all look good together, but the purple stripe pants clash. Black and purple, maybe. Black, white and purple, not so much. Something similar in blue might work, though preferably then in a darker shade of blue, so it'll work with both your eyes and your shirt, and at the same time contrast your jacket. Other than that, some kind of accessory could spice it up a bit. Maybe a necklace or a bow or a hat, whatever feels right.

I love themes and gothlympic is a fun one. But the white shirt? Try the black one instead. Wings never go out of style, and they work well here too. Especially as a counter to the goth-esque theme (which, also, would be more prevalent with the black shirt). The boots and skirt definitely work as part of the theme, but otherwise it wouldn't be the first thing I'd recommend. While I do love shinies, your particular haircolour makes it hard to see the laurels. It doesn't necessarily have to go, since a shiny is a shiny and it's both in and looks good, but there might be better alternatives. Also, have you considered gloves of some sort? Black, dark blue, maybe white, to go with the lighter colours of the wings.

A good, simple outfit. It looks good, but it's a little too simple. The gloves are good, but the net-shirt/top/90's pants combo is a pretty common one. Now, don't get me wrong, it's popular for a reason, but to really make it special, you need to, that's right, accessorize. Maybe something for the hair, possibly some other gloves, though the ones you have aren't bad. Maybe a bit of colour somewhere to match the brightness of the eyes. All in all, there's nothing outright wrong with the outfit. It's a fairly basic outfit that looks good, but it could just use a bit more spice.

It's hard to fault your regular outfit. It's got a dark innocence about it. The glasses, paling the bright green eyes, hints both at sofistication and symbolism. It's hard not to draw parallells to the "gothic lolita"-style and though I don't know if that's intentional, it works well and you've essentially made that outfit somewhat of a trademark. The striped socks stop it from being too dark and though I think it could look good with black or grey socks, it's not at all required, since those work great too. It seems to capture your mood and mindset when dealing with certain parts of M&R. The new/current outfit is good; the fairy wings, the eyes and the logo on the shirt create a form of colour symmetry, of sorts. The nightmare wings are a good addition, as they add a bit of variety. As I've said in the past, I'm a fan of the 90's pants and they complement the rest of the outfit well. The gloves are a nice touch. It's a good, black outfit with good, interesting touches.

As for your inventory, my suggestion will be PMed.

Great outfit. The colour coordination is very good. The red bow tie brings a bit of colour into the mix, and it's framed nicely by the black hair and black shoes. The bracelet is fine, since though it's slightly hard to see, it's not really distracting once it's discovered or throws anything off. Howevr, there's still something more you need, and I've still been unable to put my finger on what. I'm going to suggest a silver pocket watch, to go with the colour theme. Try it out and see how you like it.

You called it plain, but plain isn't necessarily bad. In fact, often, less can be more and such is the case here. It's a basic combo of blue and white and it's hard to go wrong with that. I don't know if the eyes-shirt/hair-pants parallells were intentional, but it looks great. The shoes aren't standard fair, but I find myself liking them, none the less. The bag, of course, puts the proverbial dot over the "i" for the "schoolboy"-style outfit. The only thing I'd consider adding would possibly be a silver/metallic wristwatch, so you're not late for classes.

Finally! Am I not the Kongming of fashion?

Ahhh, thank you very much, Mory. It's most appreciated. Perhaps there'll be another batch coming along eventually.

Kat - That's a great use of that dress. Any chance you could find a pair of gloves or shoes with a more green-ish hue?

I'd say the Fairy Cloth would go well with your eyes...unfortunately, it wouldn't go well with anything ELSE. I'll have to go on a green hunt for you.

Oh, and while we're still stuck on the subject of being fashionable, what do you think of my new emo bag, Mr. Vermillion? 3nodding heart
