Why I Want Cataclysm to Come Out Soon.
Here is a list of things I absolutely want, and, maybe so will you! Of course, I stayed primarily with main fashion items, but, there is a mount in there, too. I also tried to stay with non-quest reward items, but, some of them may end up being quest rewards once the expansion is actually out; the model of the items may also change. Browse the Wowhead site yourself, if you haven’t already, and tell us what you are looking forward to (even if it’s not armor related).
Gear
Chests
Cloth:
- Gilnean Acolyte’s Robe
- Gilnean Apprentice’s Robe
- Gilnean Neophyte’s Robe
- Goblin Acolyte’s Robe
- Goblin Apprentice’s Robe
- Goblin Neophyte’s Robe
- Robes like the Gown of the Last Priestess and the Airfield Defender’s Garb (both come in different colors ^_^)
Leather:
- Goblin Thug’s Shirt
- Goblin Trapper’s Shirt
- Primal Shirt
- Tunics like the Tunic of Dark Leather
Mail/Plate:
Legs:
Cloth:
- Pants like the Archaelogist’s Pants and the Leggings of Secret Rituals
Leather:
Crafted Goodies:
- Rhinestone Sunglasses – Jewelcrafting – Finally, a non-engineer fancy pair of shades! ^_^
- High Society Top Hat – Tailoring – OMG! Really? Yes….YES!! (relatively the same model as the Worgen quest reward Lord Walden’s Top Hat)
- Black Wedding Dress – Tailoring – I guess I need to update my Ebon Roses article 😉
- Embroidered Shirt – Tailoring – Beautiful for both guys and gals. On guys it’s more of a dusty black and gold, while on girls it’s white/gray and gold.
- Elegant Bracelets – Jewelcrafting – Same model as the Antique Silver Cufflinks (for now), but, it’s always good to have an alternative.
- Jeweler’s Emerald Monocle, Ruby Monocle, Sapphire Monocle – Jewelcrafting – Same model as the Noble’s Monocle (for now), but, again, alternatives FTW!
Off-hand Frills
Hopefully I’ll be able to get these…if not, I’ll be sad.
- Unidentified Eating Utensil – Another cooking outfit, anyone?
- Spring Gadget – It just looks cool ^_^
Mounts/Pets
I know there will be more to come, but these are what are up for right now:
- Subdued Abyssal Manta Ray – The pictures show a manta ray similar to the nether ray flying mounts from the Sha’tari Skyguard in BC. But, the model viewer, and comments suggest it summons a FREAKING SEAHORSE. I want this first!! LoL
- Withers – I don’t know if this is Alliance-only or not, but, it’s still a cool alternative to the Teldrassil Sproutling for those players unable to get the latter.
**Update** Take a look at Hanuma’s blog – she posted a lot of great pics of Cataclysm scenery and NPCs. Will the enticement ever end? ^_^

@Kiione: LoL, you’re quite welcome for the site and the fashion monster-creation ^_^, though, you should not avoid other aspects of the game that are equally important and enjoyable. I love all my readers too, and I owe the site to y’all.
I have to admit that when I first started this site, I was skeptical on how it would take off, and, I often laughed at myself because I could see the futility of putting time into something that didn’t even exist. With only a few types of outfits that were pretty basic, I had no idea how in depth it would become, and it is very addicting when you see what all you can create. I also figured that people would copy my outfits, but I see now that the site only inspires them to make their own…and that is WONDERFUL. WoW gives players so much to work with, and I saw that I could create whatever I wanted, and now so is everyone else.
I would love to see what you can come up with ^_^, and so would a lot of other readers.

You suck! You have forever changed the way I look at WoW! Im never going to be happy just mindlessly running dungeons in crappy gear ever again. 🙁 I dont even play on a RP server, woman! All I do now is obsessively farm like… shirts… pants… I have 20+ robes. And this is all in the matter of THREE DAYS! I gotta admit when I stumbled on your site, at first I was laughing so hard at the idea of someone actually dedicating time to how their character looked and being fashionable… but the more I looked around, the more I realized I was missing out on a huge aspect of the MMO. It started off harmless… I kept a dress that was pretty, but crap for stats… then the next thing I know Im checking the AH every 20 minutes, searching the armory slavishly and declining questing, dungeoning or leveling with my friends!!!! You have created a monster! *SOB!*

LoL, your boyfriend sounds like my husband. He’s not into the whole RP thing, much less fashion. But it’s how the game is fun for you, and nobody else, right? ^_^
Awwww…you’re Alliance 😛 That’s okay. Maybe you can show us some Alliance only fashion from Cata, or even currently in-game. We’d love to see it.
I can’t wait to see the green drops either ^_^ , but, I hope they keep the oldies but goldies, too. It’s nice to have those to depend on.

Hey Kirina! :3 I noticed that you too are on Tichondrius and it’s really awesome to have someone else who farms RP outfits (much to my boyfriend’s dismay =_=) on our realm. I’m on Alliance though. 🙁 I too can’t wait for Cataclysm to come out as all the starting gear for Worgen and Goblins looks way better than what the game currently offers, I can’t wait to see the greens that drop in Cata, they will be amazing for RP wardrobes. ^_^

OMB, I’ve gotta get my Tailor leveled so that she can make those cool new patterns! *SO* excited that the Top Hat will be tailorable, and also that the Black Wedding Dress will finally be available to players. I collect shirts, and that Embroidered Shirt is gorgeous.
