Yeah yeah there was a patch this week, and I did some of the new stuff, but more importantly, it was Spring Trial of Style!
Trial of Style: Crimson Creations
Red Pointy Hat, Devouring Pellicle Shoulderpads (M), Phoenix-Wing Cloak, Scarlet Sin’dorei Robes, Voidweave Cilice, Infernoweave Boots, Twisted Visage
I got this theme first, and then again a round or two later, and this outfit placed 3rd both times. I participated in Trial of Style a few more times to get enough Tokens for all the new goodies I wanted to acquire, and a couple of those times I even placed 1st — but the outfits I made for the themes of those rounds were just minimally modified ensembles or previously saved outfits, so I won’t share them here.
Trial of Style: Winter Wear
Boneshredder set with Crimson Beanie, Swashbuckling Buccaneer’s Sash, and Miniature Winter Veil Tree
This theme was so easy for a dagger-wielding leather wearer 😀 This outfit placed 2nd, which was enough tokens to get the leather items I wanted.
Trial of Style: Going Green
Fel-Proof Goggles, Pauldrons of the Unrelenting, Silithid Carapace Chestguard, Jade’s Lovely Shirt, Ooze-Ridden Gauntlets, Felforged Waistplate, Zanj’ir Scaleguard Wargreaves/Emerald Legplates, Boots of the Colossus, Supposed Mace/Light’s Justice, Gizlock’s Hypertech Buckler/Aegis of the Sunbird
Karaelia had been feeling like she needed a new outfit, so I sent her to the Trial of Style to get the Anointed Crusader’s Claymore and the Jade Arcus. I got “Going Green” for her first theme, then iterated that outfit for all of her rounds, changing usually just the hat and weapons to approximately fit whatever the theme was. After several rounds of not placing, these versions placed 3rd for the themes Profession Expression (except that she’s not really an Engineer — she’s a Jewelcrafter) and Summer Styles.
Sailor’s Success
Crimson Beanie/Dread Captain’s Chapeau, Swashbuckling Buccaneer’s Tunic, Swashbuckling Buccaneer’s Sash, Seafarer’s Pantaloons, Buccaneer’s Boots, Torch of Austen + Gnomish Liquid Transfer Apparatus/Admiral Taylor’s Cutlass + Mistyreed Torch, Cap’n Crackers
A new pirate hat wants another pirate outfit remix to go with it!
WTB a staff that looks like a mop so I can really be a swabbie.
Apprentice Soupervisor
Ancestral Chieftain’s Headdress, Frostwolf Spaulders, Rivermane War Harness, Ottuk Hide Vest, Rustic Workman’s Shirt, Frostwolf Mitts, Miststalker’s Belt, Frostwolf Leggings, Ottuk Hide Waders, Big Kinook’s Spare Ladle
I was looking for alternate shoulders to go with the Ottuk Hide set, and this mashup with the Frostwolf set from Warlords kind of just happened.

This series of posts began because I set myself a goal to document new Transmogrification outfits in a more timely fashion. As soon as I create a new outfit, I write it up in a draft post. As the weekend approaches, I start working on taking fashion screenshots, processing them, and updating “Things my [Class] Wears” posts. On Sunday — though not every Sunday — I publish the collection of my recent efforts. Then I begin the next “Sunday on the Promenade” draft post.<
Occasionally, I have ideas for themed Transmogrification collections that take several months to completely assemble. Thus, some of these outfits might get re-posted at a later date as part of such a themed Transmogrification collection.
