Don’t you hate it when you can’t decide on a transmog outfit? The outfit that starts taking over an hour to make?
I started this with a simple idea- a warlock in white and gold. Kind of- “I’m holier than thou” look? heh 😀
Turns out, there aren’t tons of white options for warlocks. This started taking a while and costing a little money (I need to go back to using WOW Model Viewer!?). Which wasn’t a big deal to me; it was more a bag space problem as usual.
The outfit was based on three pieces at first – Aurora Armor, the Theramore Tabard, and Vicious Embersilk Pants. I also had on Sandals Of The Shadow at the time, which I decided to use to give some contrast and also because they have some white in them.
The first dilemma came with the helm.
I thought the white helm- Cowl of Destiny– looked kind of neat… plus I have never used it in a transmog since it hardly matches anything. However, my son wanted me to use the gold helm- Gaze of the Unknown.
Touch of Blue
I was ok with the gold helm until I noticed that the back is blue (and there are feathers? around the bottom, no idea). That doesn’t go with what I was wanting, but I modified the outfit to make my son happy by adding some blue items off the AH. The gloves- Wind-Kissed Handwraps– and a staff with blue- Splintering Greatstaff.
Back of the Gaze helm
<Just for note here, I used Nemesis Bracers because they are very small and don’t add distraction to the gloves.>
I ended up later back with the white helm, and then I couldn’t decide on a staff without blue. So I bought an old favorite, The Bringer Of Death. I liked it because it added a warlock look, but it was a bit too much white at this point for me.
Death By Chatmay
The second staff I tried was Spire of Sunset. Although it matched the color scheme, I thought it was kind of gawdy for the overall look.
Set in Theramore
I also tossed back and forth different shoulders and belts. I ended up with Ruby-Linked Girdle to go with the boots and Pandaria xpac, but I did consider the white belt, Firewool Cord of the Wildfire.
For shoulders, I started with Elegant Mantle. I decided it was too grayish, so I went with Vicious Embersilk Shoulders instead.
What do you guys think? Which pieces should I use with what? Feedback needed! 😀
THE WOW DEBUTANTE 
Augh! I know how frustrating that can be, to not be able to find quite the right pieces to get everything to fit together perfectly.
I like the first helm and the last staff. Perhaps a blue cloak? The Defender cloak is blue with gold trim and some white/silver scales/feathers at the top; that might give you the blue you need to make the first helm tie in sufficiently well with the rest of the outfit.
Actually, now that I think about it a bit more, I think the Spire of Sunset goes well with the Gaze of the Unknown, whereas the Cowl of Destiny would work well with the Splintering Greatstaff. The dusty blues in the gloves tie in well enough with the pale blues of that staff, I think.
