Pink Satin

Same Dress, Two completely different looks.

I didn't bother to pick this dress up last time the festival rolled around, but when I saw it a week or two ago in the Auction House, I snatched it up. I made two outfits with it. One for the little hobbit hunter, and one for Andadrien.

When I looked at my hobbit, it just screams "Little Red Riding Hunter". With the hood and the crimson, it's kind of inescapable. While visiting a friend's home in the Shire Homesteads, she went jumping through a mushroom circle; however, don't be fooled by the sweet, little antics - she's a deadly little thing with her bow.

She is wearing:

Gifted Ancient Helm of the Horse-Lords - Dyed Red

(Yes, I realize this is a gold HL item, and that many people may not have access to it. I had it equipped, so it was readily accessible for me. There are so many other hood-like head pieces in the game that could be easily substituted in for this item.)

Harvest-brew Dress - Dyed Crimson

Plain Cloak - Dyed Crimson

~~

Andadrien has a little bit more expensive taste. She likes to throw gold in the air and inspect her gems to make sure that they remain flawless. This took me approximately 3 minutes from when I got the dress to create it - it's super easy: headpiece, cloak, and *bam* it's done. Not going to lie, I totally thought about the Lannisters from Game of Thrones when I saw this outfit finished it as it is all crimson and gold. If you like to read, they are good books. I'm on the 5th book.

Andadrien is wearing:

Ceremonial Hat of the Written Word - Dyed Red

Harvest-brew Dress - Dyed Crimson

Golden Tree Summer Cloak - Dyed Red

Anniversary Festival

I suppose since the Anniversary Festival is occurring, I should give note to some of the cosmetics available. While I am not a huge fan of the Silken Dress/Robe of Golden Splendour that you can barter for, I do love the Reveller's Gilded Party Dress. I like how it has a more satin-y look to it unlike any other item in the game. It pairs perfectly with the war steed cosmetic: Reveller's Gilded Appearance. The war steed cosmetic drops in one of the festival's dailies. I just love it. Pair it with a fur stole - you're good to go!

Another item I found cute was the Spark-Maker's Pack which I thought was perfect for my little hobbit. She couldn't resist watching a fireworks' show now that she was all dressed up for the festival!

The first outfit on Andadrien is:

Reveller's Gilded Party Dress

Ceremonial Hat of the Written Word (Dyed Red)

Supple Great River Pauldrons of Vitality (Dyed Crimson)

The second outfit on Dinel is:

Vibrant Eastemnet Campaign Circlet (Dyed Red)

Hill-Man's Cracked Leather Jacket (Dyed Crimson)

Spark-Maker's Pack

Tursur-Lhopan (Dyed Umber)

Happy 6th Anniversary to everyone! 

Roman Goddess

I've been avoiding this circlet for a very long time. If not worn correctly, it looks really, really ridiculous. I like it, though - it gives off Roman Goddess airs.

All this is:

Elf-Queen Dress (Dyed Grey)

Shoulder Pads of Resolve (Dyed White)

Winged Circlet

A Very Royal Song Warrior Indeed..

This is Andadrien's signature outfit. She wears it most of the time. For her it's a perfect mix of delicate and dangerous. The helm definitely make it look a little more fight-ready while the dress and the purple and gold color theme add to the feeling of royalty that you get when you see this. I took inspiration once again from The Lotro Stylist; however, the outfit is not copied exactly. I took the dress and the helm from that outfit and added my own shoulders and cloak to make it my own.

To put this together:

Helm of the West Tower

Elegant Formal Dress (Dyed Purple)

Shoulders of Meduseld (Dyed Purple)

Cloak of the Autumn Wood (Dyed Purple)

Lady Andadrien

This blog is a personal collection of my favorite outfits I've seen in Middle Earth or created myself. I'll start with the most recent outfit I've made and probably my favorite of all the outfits I've made. 

I call it the Lady Andadrien outfit. There's no running and getting dirty in this outfit!

It's simple to put together. It's made out of:

Wide-Brimmed Spring Hat (dyed Turquoise)

Gwir-Palvais (dyed Turquoise)

Gossamer Dress (Turquoise)
