Hats, hats, hats...and a helm..

A comment in "The Darkness and the Light...Part Two" post suggested I take a look at the Midrealm Hat, and what a great suggestion it was! This hat is lovely! So, I of course grabbed a very close friend *points to Ben* and made him get the hat. *laughs* No more room in my bags I'm afraid...



Anyways, please welcome Ben and his Midrealm Hat!



Though the helm looks rather blue on these screenshots, it does have a lot of white in it and would go well with any white or white-blue item.
I decided to pair it up with the Glacial Robe and Talonite's Belt. If you are looking for boots for this set then Talonite's Boots are a good choice.




Then after discovering the Midrealm Hat and having picked up Whitemane's Chapeau and the Gossamer hat not too long ago, I decided to poke around a bit and see what other shiny helms like these are out there.
And apparently some of these helms can be found as both lower level items and BC quest rewards. The Midrealm Hat for instance used to have a lower level equivalent by the name of Glacial Headdress (it is not in the game any more though), while the red Ata'mal Crown and green Ghostly Headwrap are Shadowmoon Valley quest rewards and copies of Whitemane's Chapeau and the Mish'undare hat.



I have not yet found any equivalent of the Gossamer Headpiece, but it should not be too hard for you to find it on the auction house and it doesn't really cost too much either if you buy it at the right moment. By the way...I got my Gossamer robes. Yaaay! I'll show you in my next post. *winks*
The dress on this screenshot though is the Runecloth Robe.








Here is Hanuma's Ghostly Headwrap in two versions that I think suit the hat very well. In the first one she is wearing the Arcane Robe, which in my opinion is the nicest version of this model.

The second robe is the Coldtouch Phantom Wraps from Stratholme. There is a green item version of this robe out there, but I cannot for the life of me remember the name. Sorry!
EDIT: Equivalents: Duskwoven Robe is BoE and Dustfall Robes are an alliance quest reward. Thanks Dengan!





And then....
Djul finally picked a helm. For those who have not read, I complained earlier about a quest in Shadowmoon Valley that left me unable to choose a reward because they were all so pretty.

Well...I decided to choose the Druidic Helmet of Second Sight. No matter how much I love the drake helm, I could not ignore that the Druidic Helmet really is a one of a kind item. And I think I made the right choice, because merely moments after I picked it, I had an outfit ready. Hope you like it.

Djul is here wearing the Druidic Helmet of Second Sight with the Abjurer's Robe. The shoulders are Spaulders of the Ring, the belt is the Mighty Girdle and the boots are Talonite's Boots.

This helm is also a perfect addition to the Sorcerer set - a slightly rare drop blue set that is also a one of a kind. Here you can see the Sorcerer Gloves and Robe. The belt is Doc's Belt while the shoulders are the same as above.

Well, that's that. One less quest reward to worry about and hopefully someone finds a helm that suits them! *winks*


What do you wear?

Fairy Godmother

Hi! I know, I know...I have been slacking again. *sighs*
But I am working on a new post, just that it's another one of those posts that demand time. So I decided to take a little break and give you something to look at in the mean time, and here it is: my fairy godmother outfit.


In WoW, mages would definitely make the best fairy godmothers, no? Oh, we may not be able to turn a pumpkin into a chariot, but some of the world's best magic wielders might just polymorph you a horse. *giggles* Anyways...


The outfit is nothing too fancy really, just something I made when I finally got that pink robe during Noblegarden. I have wanted that robe ever since I saw it on Jessica Chambers in Light's Hope.

What you need to get this look is the Elegant Dress, Devout Gloves and Gossamer Rod.








The best helm for this would be the fire festival crown , but I did not have it so here are my suggestions: Sorcerer's Crown, Cowl of the Tempest (top screenshot), Scintillating Headdress of Second Sight (second screenshot) and if you want, try a purple turban or wizard hat.




Also there are several wand-like off-hand models to choose from: The Gossamer Rod and Watcher's Star are copper in color, while the Slavehandler Rod and Elementalist Star are purple. The only golden star wand is the Regal Star. Sparklers from the Midsummer festival are also a good option. Good luck scanning the AH! *winks*





Thanks to Eterna for casting Levitate, Guardian Spirit and a myriad of other spells to make me look awesome. The bubble is my Mana Shield and reminded me of the fairy from the Wizard of Oz. *smiles*

Well, have to run now! Take care!
