The Evolution of the Shearling Vest: From Functional Wear to Fashion Staple

The shearling vest has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from rugged functional wear to a sought-after fashion staple. Its journey reflects shifts in style, lifestyle, and fashion trends. In this post, we’ll explore how the shearling vest has evolved over time, making its way from utility wear to runways and closets around the world.

1. Origins: The Early Functionality of Shearling Vests

The history of the shearling vest dates back centuries, originally used for its practical benefits rather than fashion. Made from lambskin or sheepskin with the wool still attached, shearling vests were favored by people who needed warmth and durability.

Rural and Workwear Origins: Farmers, ranchers, and military personnel used shearling vests because of their excellent insulation and protection against harsh weather. The material's natural properties provided warmth even in wet conditions.

Military Influence: During World War II, aviators and soldiers wore shearling vests as part of their cold-weather gear, solidifying their reputation as reliable functional wear.

2. The Transition from Utility to Fashion

In the 1960s and 1970s, fashion began to embrace shearling vests as more than just practical outerwear. The rising popularity of bohemian and hippie styles made natural materials and vintage-inspired clothing fashionable, and the shearling vest fit perfectly into this aesthetic.

Boho-Chic Movement: The vest became a symbol of counterculture, often paired with denim, fringe, and other bohemian staples, offering a laid-back and stylish vibe.

Hollywood Influence: Icons like Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood wore shearling vests in movies, helping to popularize the rugged look in mainstream culture.

3. Shearling Vests in High Fashion

As the years progressed, shearling vests found their way onto high-fashion runways. Designers began experimenting with the material, reinterpreting it in modern and creative ways.

Designer Influence: High-end fashion houses like Burberry, Prada, and Ralph Lauren started incorporating shearling vests into their collections, adding unique cuts, colors, and details to elevate the style from casual to sophisticated.

Luxury Appeal: Shearling's natural warmth and texture added a touch of luxury to outfits, making the vest a statement piece in the world of high fashion.

4. Modern-Day Style: Versatility and Fashion-Forward Looks

Today, the shearling vest is a versatile piece that can be styled for a variety of occasions, from casual outings to chic streetwear looks. The evolution in design has allowed it to maintain its functional roots while embracing modern fashion trends.

Street Style: Influencers and celebrities are often spotted wearing shearling vests over turtlenecks, sweaters, and even leather jackets, creating stylish layered looks.

Seasonal Trends: Shearling vests have become a go-to item for fall and winter fashion, offering warmth without sacrificing style.

5. Sustainable Fashion and the Shearling Vest

The fashion industry’s shift toward sustainability has also revived interest in shearling vests, as they are made from natural materials and can be more eco-friendly than synthetic alternatives.

Eco-Friendly Benefits: Shearling is biodegradable and often a by-product of the meat industry, making it a more sustainable option than faux alternatives.

Vintage Appeal: Second-hand and vintage shearling vests have gained popularity, with consumers seeking authentic, well-made pieces from previous decades.

6. The Shearling Vest in Pop Culture and Media

Shearling vests continue to have a significant presence in pop culture, frequently appearing in movies, TV shows, and music videos. The association with ruggedness, adventure, and style keeps them in the spotlight.

Movies and TV: Characters in films like "The Revenant" and "Yellowstone" have worn shearling vests, reinforcing the garment's association with rugged, outdoor lifestyles.

Music Influence: Musicians and performers often incorporate shearling vests into their stage outfits, adding to their cool, effortless aesthetic.

7. How to Style a Shearling Vest for Today’s Fashion

The versatility of the shearling vest makes it suitable for various fashion looks. Here are some modern styling tips:

Casual Layering: Pair a shearling vest with a long-sleeve t-shirt or knit sweater, skinny jeans, and boots for a relaxed yet stylish look.

Bohemian Chic: Style it with a flowy dress, ankle boots, and a wide-brim hat to capture the boho vibe.

Edgy Streetwear: Wear over a leather jacket or hoodie for a street-style look, adding skinny jeans and sneakers to complete the outfit.

how would violet style summer clothes?

I made a post about what I think Vi would wear during summer last year (linked here), but here are some updated thoughts!

Violet Harmon outfit inspiration for summer!

I think Vi would go the boho-route by wearing lots of flowy dresses / skirts and slightly brighter colors during summer. I don't think her style would change very much; she'd just layer less, wear shorts & capris often, and wear lighter fabrics.

Here are some summer clothing essentials I think she'd wear during the hotter months:

Maxi skirts and dresses.

Graphic tees, oversized tees.

Light layers; like thin flannels and lightweight cardigans.

Basic tank tops.

Crochet vests like the one she wore in Birth.

T-shirts layered under dresses.

Utility / cargo shorts.

Jean shorts in a variety of colors.

Sandals.

Converse, always.

Capris and 3/4 pants.

For patterns and colors, I think Violet would wear about the same ones she did in the show, like floral & paisley patterns, and earth-tones mixed with bright pops of color.

Thanks for the question, I hope this could help <3

Introducing the Such Happy Campers ROs:

𝓑𝓪𝓼𝓲𝓵 𝓛𝓪𝓾𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓻

gender: male [trans, ftm]

age: 27

height: 5 ft 8 (172 cm)

occupation: none/volunteer/camp counselor

faith: Wiccan, pagan, spiritualist

physical description: Basil is slim, athletic and prone to moving with a measured, uncanny grace. He has fair skin that tans easily in the sun. His chin-length hair is artfully shaggy and dyed in brown and gold layers to resemble a tiger eye gemstone. 

notable: Faded top surgery scars. A red and blue lightning bolt tattooed on his sternum. Multiple small, simple gold earrings.

clothing style and aesthetic: Basil always dresses in either bright, cheerful colors or various natural hues. He prefers his clothes to be layered and airy, often sporting vests or flowy shirts with boho-style patterns. Sometimes, he wears several beaded necklaces and rings.

hobbies and interests: folklore, woodwork, true crime, traveling

Basil is harmonious, optimistic and outgoing. He appreciates humor and puns (even if they're at his expense). He takes neither himself nor others very seriously. 

When romanced however, a lot of his confidence turns into stricken stupidity. If you want to see a cocksure, assertive character losing his cool and tripping over himself, look no further.

Though it might just be a challenge to get him there.

College fits: the desi version

Kurtis

Starting of with the very basic indo-western outfit: Kurtis. Now, you can wear knee length or short-length kurtis, whatever your prefer.

First of all, please, for the love of god, don't go for those cheap chikankari kurtis or those 'kashmiri embroidered' kurtis. It's disrespecting to the real chikankari and kashmiri embroidered work and secondly, its tacky atp.

Go for normal, printed or plain kurtis. I would say thin straps, or cut-sleeves kurtis cause they feel more girlish and more appropriate for college. If you are insecure about your arms then you can go quarter length and full length too. You can buy good and cheap ones from zudio or myntra.

You can pair your kurtis with shorts, jeans or skirts. Your jeans could be linen, wide -legged, cargos, etc. Avoid skinny jeans or ripped jeans.

Personally, I love to wear short kurtis with baggy cargos. I wear boots cause I love that edgy aesthetic. It's OP for me. I live for that fit.

Skirts

Now, if you want to wear those long flowy skirts, you can just pair them with any normal top of your choice. Additonally, you can wear a duppatta as a scarf and go for the whole Ananya from 2 states look.

You can also wear those really big shararas that almost look like skirts. But daily wear dividers/ shararas are a bit hard to find. You would have to get them stitched only.

Nowadays, a lot of of other sort of traditional skirts are also coming. Wrap around skirts, pencil skirts, short skirts, etc. You can find them easily online. Again, pair them with your normal tops.

If you don't like those traditional skirts/ ghagras you can also opt for those trending maxi skirts. Pair them with jhumkas, duppatta and a boho tote bag and you are good to go!

Shirts

Okayyy so printed shirts are my favorite.

You can just wear the shirts with the bottom of your choice. Even with skirts. You saw Katrina Kaif in Fitoor. Take inspiration.

If skirts aren't your thing,I would personally suggest linen pants. Looks amazing.

The other option is ofcourse wearing your shirts as shrugs over your outfits. Avoid buying those full length shrugs and wearing them over jeans and top. It doesn't look elegant.

Random

Pathani kurtas on women>> Yes, I mean those short linen material kurtas that men wear. Feels androgynous and I love them alot.

If you have some pretty duppattas and scarfs, you can wear them as tops.

You can also wear those patiala pants like geet from jab we met. They are really comfortable and I feel not as normalized in your indo-western style too. So you can have your own unique style by experimenting with them. You can buy the plain color patiala pants and pair it with cute fitted strappy tops. Complete the look with punjabi jootis.

You can also just wear duppattas over your normal western outfits too. Maybe or maybe not add jhumkas according to the outfit. Add a totebag and voila! the simplest indo-western outfit out there.

Vests! I live for vests. Vests add color to my outfit in the simplest way possible. it's chic, it's elegant and ots perfect for when you have interviews or jury if you wear them the right way.

There are endless possibilites with the indo-western look. It's all upto you- how much you want to experiment. Some of my friends in Nift even wear sarees in indo-western look and go to college wearing that. So, ultimately it's all upto you.

Accessories

I feel like accessories totally determine your look. If you want it to be more party wear types or minimalist- it all depends on the accessories. They totally carry your look.

For the normal days, you can add on chudiyas. Can go for siilver ones, but if you want it to be a bit more dressy, you can buy matching chudiyas.

Accessories matching your outfit>>>> Even if you are wearing silver jwellery, try to match the rest of the things with your outfit. Rubberbands, hair clip, bangles, your shoes, your bag, etc.

Wear jootis when you go indo-western.

I feel like the key for accessories is to not overdo it. Keep it simple. The best part about our desi style is we have a lot of ways to dress up- bindis to payals. For your college fits, you can just go for bindis matching your outfit or the black one, jhumkas and bangles. finish it with a totebag.

When your shoes are visible with an outfit, you can do this. I like to wear boots alot. So, whenever I wear dresses and my boots are visible, I wear payals over them. It looks really cool. 10/10

if you are really into the aesthetic and want to play around, you can also try wearing scarfs as hairbands, silver necklaces as headbands, use earrings as hair ties.

To feel like a desi coquette, you can wear those bowtie hair clips matching the color of your kurta

These items are not just accessories and garments; they are statements of grace, confidence, and timeless style. So, let’s elevate our wardrobes together with these must-haves:

CLASSY GIRL MUST HAVES:

1. Black Sunnies

A pair of black sunglasses is the ultimate accessory for any classy lady. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun, but they also add a touch of mystery and sophistication to any outfit. Whether you’re running errands or attending a high-profile event, black sunnies will keep you looking cool and composed.

Pearls have long been a symbol of elegance and purity. A pearl choker or necklace adds a soft, feminine touch to both casual and formal outfits. If you missed our “Let’s Talk: Pearls” guide, we highly recommend checking it out on the blog for tips on selecting and styling these timeless pieces.

3. Gold or Silver Chunky Small Hoop Earrings

Chunky hoop earrings, whether in gold or silver, are a staple in a classy girl's jewelry box. They're versatile enough to wear with a jeans and tee combo or a chic evening dress. These earrings frame the face beautifully, drawing attention to your radiant smile.

4. Button-Up Cardigans: Long, Cropped, and Vest Ones!

Cardigans are the Swiss Army knife of any wardrobe. A long cardigan can be wrapped around you on a chilly evening, while a cropped one pairs perfectly with high-waisted trousers or skirts. Vest cardigans are great for layering over summer dresses. The key is to have a variety to choose from for any occasion.

Accessories like dainty bangles or a classy watch can elevate your outfit instantly. They’re subtle yet powerful in adding a touch of glamour to your everyday look. Mix and match bangles for a boho chic vibe, or keep it sleek with a single, elegant watch.

The importance of well-fitted trousers cannot be overstated. Tailored trousers not only enhance your silhouette but also make you feel more confident and put-together.

7. Black Purse

A black purse is the finishing touch to any outfit. It’s practical, it matches with almost everything, and it exudes class. Whether you prefer a tote for daytime or a sleek clutch for evenings, a black purse is an essential accessory that you’ll reach for time and again.

These seven items are more than just pieces of clothing and accessories; they are a representation of our style, our grace, and our unapologetic presence in every room we enter.

Fashion is a way to express who we are without having to speak. It’s the fun part of your femininity journey, Let’s make every outfit count!

How do you think Violet would dress in the summer?

First off,

(I'm going off my experience here with trying to cover s/h since most of us know that's probably why she layers so much.)

I think she would wear a lot of bracelets stacked up instead of long sleeves.

Maxi/Midi skirts with boho/floral/dark patterns, or shorts with breathable fishnet /tights underneath!

Light lace tops possibly (not cropped), with a cami underneath, or cut band shirts like her 'The Kinks' shirt. She could also layer with some crochet vests.

Boho/ Free people Tanktops like this!!

Her regular shoes (converse, boots (with or without platforms.), more dresses like the A.P.C madras, her regular hats, and sunglasses. (would add pictures but too lazy to make a collage lol and i cant add any more)

First time doing something like this, and it was really fun. Thank you for asking! I'd love to do it again.

[rivertigo]

all those Coachella girls in the 2010s had access to the most clothes ever in human history and they still came up with the most lame “boho chic” outfits ever. like I’m not denying some of the 60s south western hippie pieces forever 21 was churning out at the time were using authentic silhouettes and were cute at hell, but I guess fashion influencers were allergic to serving an interesting outfit because they were never good. the combination of 2010s fashion and beauty sensibilities are diametrically opposed to the hippie fashion they wanted to emulate so you get something so tacky every time. the balayage beach waves with a beat mug and a fringe vest is ugly as hell because it divorces any context for that garment and flattens it into “festival wear” dawg they don’t even play folk music why are you wearing a fringe poncho and cowboy boots to dance to a DJ set in a field…

✨ Search Term Ideas for Whimsigothic Clothing on Vinted, Depop, etc. 🔮

Named aesthetics can be useful when searching for blogs and fashion inspo, and lately drawing style inspiration from whimsigothic tumblr has been just so fun for me. I especially love how well this style lends itself to shopping secondhand. But searching directly for any specific “aesthetic” online, especially on depop, results in finding items that are mislabelled, overpriced or dropshipped. On vinted, items tend to be priced more fairly than depop IMO, but the user base skews a bit older so people are less likely to list items using hyperspecific internet terms. So here’s a list of some more general keywords I use for hidden gems instead:

Patchwork, beaded, or embroidered + bags, dresses, shawls, boleros or vests

Handkerchief/hankie hem!

It took me a while to find the specific word for those long skirts that have bands and look layered: they’re “tiered”

Arm warmers, knit shrugs or “ultra cropped” are all useful to search for those fun knits that only cover the arms (and these can easily be bought handmade to support a small business!)

Bell sleeve

“Dark floral” or “Celestial” + item of clothing

Also sun, moon, star pattern (this can sometimes return lots of 2014 era Galaxy leggings though unless you narrow the clothing type lol)

Boho or hippie, then filter by darker colours

Obvious one, but velvet in whatever colour and item you’re looking for

“Witchy” is sometimes useful but sometimes will return expensive items from specialty gothic clothing stores

Brands I see come up often (I’m based in the UK) - monsoon or wallis for beaded things, indigo moon for patchwork, older M&S has a lot of quality velvet things

Feel free to add to this! I have no idea if anyone will find this useful :)

Cold Hearted Chapter 1

Modern AU LawxFem!Black reader

Previous chapters:

1 2 3 (otw)

TW: weed smoking, smoking, the use of N word. (I put the warning in bold, i don’t wanna hear “oh you didn’t put a warning.” yes I did becky look.)

In this chapter you are on your way to Grand Line University.

Law is not in this chapter, I would call this an introduction. You are obviously a black character, it doesn’t matter the way you look ie; skin color, hair, weight, body shape (other than a fat ass lol lemme stop ✋🏽). Please enjoy. I will post chapter 2 later tonight or tomorrow. Thank youuuu!!!!

Ringing is all you could hear as you're standing in the foggy forest. You look around and you feel someone shaking you but, then you hear a voice echo.

"Y/N what did you do? Y/N? Y/N? Y/N what did you do?" *Beep* "Y/N" *Beep* *Beep*.

Your eyes shoot open waking up from your nightmare to your alarm blaring in ear at 4:30am, groaning you turn your alarm off. You give yourself a breather and stare up at the ceiling. You have an early flight because today you are leaving Ping Fort Island to go to Grand Line University. You couldn't wait to get off this bloody island and see the world for yourself.

You finally roll out of bed walking towards your bathroom that you share with your sister, you do your daily routine brush teeth, shower, light skin care something you recently just started doing. As you're about to finish in the bathroom you hear hard knocking from the bathroom door "Y/N!!!!" your sister calls, "Hurry up I gotta pee."

You side eye the door slightly rolling your eyes, and opening the door. She quickly rushes inside, pushing you out and closing the door. "I guess you had to go really bad huh." Letting out a light chuckle at her early morning attitude.

She growls back "Yeah cause you were taking forever slow poke." Your sister Kira who is 16 is not much of a morning person but she got up today because she knows you're leaving for college. She opens the door after finishing in the bathroom.

She decided to follow you into your bedroom. Plopping down on your bed she went on her phone.

"Why are you in here?"

"Because I want to get over it."

You roll your eyes and start putting on your outfit for the airport, you decided to wear a black jumpsuit that you bought off tiktok shop with a brown puffy vest, white ankle socks, and gray new balances. You take off your bonnet revealing the boho braids in your hair that were only a week fresh. You turn around and look at yourself in the mirror looking at your perfect figure and bottom (whatever you think is perfect for a body type hehe), turning back to your sister.

"I know you're gonna miss me."

It was clear that Kira was sad that you were leaving because she has been all up in your business for the last month. But she was acting like she didn't care.

"Whatever, I'm not."

You both continued to talk while you finished getting ready.

Timeskip~

You were downstairs eating because you weren't trying to spend your money on ship port food which you most likely will. You were waiting for your best friend to pick you up, whom you had texted earlier.

Your mom was on the couch moping feeling sad about you leaving. You walk over to sit next to her "Momma are you okay?" You asked with concern in your voice.

She looked like she had been crying and it was hard for you to see because you and your sister were very close with your mother. "Yeah girl, I'll be alright, i'm just sad that my oldest baby is going away." She says making a slight pouty face. "Awe mom."

You hug her, "It's gonna be okay i'm going to text and call almost everyday and check in as much as I can."

She smiles accepting your reassurance and your hug. Before you could finish the conversation your phone starts ringing with a picture of you and your best friend Egypt to take you to the ship port.

"How far is Egypt, it's getting close to the time you need to leave." Your sister asked walking over to peek out the window.

You met Egypt when you got to Ping Fort Island. You guys hit it off right away and used to cause trouble sometimes around the island.

"Actually she is right on time she's pulling up."

You walk outside seeing your best friend already reversed into the driveway popping the trunk. You guys live on a very large island so you had to drive to get to the main port of the island.

She gets out the car "Hey bestie!!" full of excitement because a new chapter of your lives is about to begin.

You smile, "Heyyyyy, you ready for this drive to port'?"

She hugs you, "Hell yeah."

Egypt has brown skin with thick curly hair that she has up in high ponytail. She was wearing black pants, with a black AC/DC graphic tee, and a pair of new balances.

You turn around and run inside grabbing your carry on items while your mom and sister help load up the car. As soon as they finished it was time for you to finally say goodbye.

"We're gonna miss you so much sweetie."

Your mom says with a shaky voice. You give your mom a big hug with tears at the brim of your eyes. You then turn to look at ur sister who had her arms crossed just looking at the ground.

"I'm gonna miss you man, I hope you actually get a boyfriend while you're there."

You first give her a blank annoyed stare cause of course she had to insult you only last time before you go. You were kinda embarrassed cause you've never actually had a boyfriend, just flings from the summer. You let her comment slide and you force her into a hug.

"I'm gonna miss you too man."

She hugs you back giving you probably one of the hardest hugs you've ever had from her. You were both sad but, you both knew you had a dream you want to follow and no one was going to get in the way of that.

Timeskip~

You and Egypt made it to the ship port at a decent time to check in and get chic fil a. You knew you was gonna eat again cause you and best friend smoked a big fat finger before you got to the ship port so you guys were very high.

You and Egypt were at separate gates because surprisingly you booked a flight for the same day and around the same time so that's why you guys rode together to the ship port. However you are going the Grand Line University and Egypt is going to Alabasta State. When you arrived to your gate you said bye to your best friend and you both went your separate ways. However, not so separate cause you were texting each other non stop up until your ship was about to take off.

Another Timeskip~

You finally made it to Grand Line University and finding your dorm was pretty easy. You decided to get a unisex dorm house because it's cheaper for your tuition. Of course you have scholarships and grants that you were given, however, it's still didn't cover the extra fees for room and board.

As you were making your way up the steps you suddenly hear a scream coming from the house that your staying in. You turn around to see an average height boy running out the house with a huge smile on his face, laughing with his black hair bouncing in the wind, and a girl with orange hair runs out.

"Luffy get your skinny ass back here RIGHT NOW!!!" she screams.

Nami grabs Luffys arm only to see him still running while his arm continues to stretch. 'He's rather stretchy hmmm almost like a rubber band'. Letting go of Luffy, Nami stares at you, his arm snaps back and hits him in the face.

"Hey that hurt." he screams, rubbing his face, and now you have a confused look on your face.

'please tell me these aren’t my roommates' you thought.

You get snapped out of your trance, "You must be Y/N, i'm so glad that you finally made it."

She gleams changing her personality like a switch, she runs and gives you a hug you don't hug back because you're not big on being touched by random strangers.

"And you are?" with slight irritation.

"I'm Nami i'm one of your new roommates, that scoundrel over there is Luffy he's our captain." You turn around looking at Luffy surprised "What.”

To be Continued...

New Winx Design: Personal Thoughts Because Why Not lol

Aisha:

❤️ love the dreads and her face shape is so cute! It looks like she has defined abs which is cool if she's meant to be particularly more fit.

💔 her outfit is plain compared to the other girls. It doesn't really have a personality to it other than she's sporty and the bright colours make it less cool as well. Aisha deserves better, her outfit shouldn't look like that of a background character!

Bloom

❤️ she looks just like her classic design! Although I prefer the fashion of the original Winx, for what this new Winx is going for, it's not bad. I like the colours!

💔 The bracelets and necklaces make her outfit look boho which doesn't fit Bloom. I'm also questionable on the plaid leggings, I can see how they work but I'd maybe go with a solid colour instead. I'm also confused about what that translucent thing over her right hand is?? But I can go without it.

Flora

❤️ Although I can't make out the whole silhouette, the style works for this iteration of Winx. It's more boho and the flower motif with the sleeves and frills are fun and creative!

💔 I prefer her classic eye shape much more, her eyes look too big here. I see some frill poking out above the belt and I'm going to hope that was an error because it'd be an awkward look. The belt could also be cuter or maybe replaced with some delicate chains/beads! I also think the top green part of her dress overwhelms the design and I'd make her hoop earrings gold instead.

Musa

❤️ I love this cool hair style and her outfit lives up to the fashion of classic Winx imo! I love the cool short sleeve jacket and vest with the big choker! Almost everything about this fit slays!

💔 the only things I don't like are the frilly top and the striped waistband. The top adds an unnecessary element of femininity that doesn't suit Musa and was something I didn't like being integrated into her design over the course of Winx. It could be a cropped tee instead! The waistband could also just be a solid purple.

Stella

❤️....

💔 I'm sorry but I find this Stella to be a serious down grade. Her style is very plain and uncreative for someone who's supposed to be the most fashion savvy. I also find it cliche to give her this pink preppy look because she's the "girly one" when her past design was so transcendent. I can see a colourful beaded bracelet too which makes her outfit look more childish, especially when that's the only accessory she has besides the shades. Her head also looks much bigger than everyone else's???

Techna

❤️ probably my favourite of the redesigns, I just love the commitment to the alternative neon punk aesthetic! The robotic details on her sleeves and tights are so cool and I love the overall metallic texture of her outfit. I like that they gave her bright makeup as well, she looks badass and the most modernized!

💔 no real complaints! I just hope the shoes are just as good lol

Can you give some physical descriptions of the cast? Thank you!!

Yes I can! Keep in mind that I absolutely suck at descriptions.

Frey: Slim, average sized and lanky. They have soft sepia skin, blue mischievous eyes and thick lips.

Freyr: Has the small growth of facial hair, like a stubble. He has deep oak coloured curly hair, and while it is short, it has longer curls at the front that fall against his forehead. He wears a simple white shirt with black trousers, sometimes he pairs it with suspenders, and he always has the autumn coloured socks visible.

Freya: Has dark smudged lilac paint on her eyelids and a brush of it on her lips. She has deep oak coloured curly hair, that is wild and free, falling down to her midback. She wears a frilly windy dress of lavender colour, the edges of it with flower embroidery. The slightly puffy sleeves reach only to her elbows, and often times the dress shows her shoulders.

========================

Pachypoda: They are short and only slightly fit. They have pointy ears, and their features are delicate, although they have big innocent silver eyes. Across their grey skin they have multiple moles.

Their hair is black and is chopped very badly into a very short bowlcut hairstyle, their bangs irregular and showing most of their forehead. They wear thick purple robes with a hood; underneath it, they wear a thin shirt with leather armour covering it. Their pants are tattered and a very ashy brown, on their left leg is a knife strap, with a dagger in it, and around their waist is a leather pouch.

========================

Hero: Looks a lot like Frey, with copper skin and small features, and the expressive blue eyes. Their hair changes a lot depending on a lot of factors, so I won't go into that. Their attire as well.

========================

Astro/a: Tall and muscular, dark sandy skin tone with many light vitiligo patches. They have a stocky jaw with a broad nose, and hooded amber eyes.

Astro: His hair is blonde and thin, both sides shaved, while the top descends down to the back of his neck, like a mullet. Sometimes he is clean shaved, other times he has a goatee of some sorts. He wears an open vest of miscellaneous furs, that clearly show his muscular torso and a necklace with a religious symbol. He has baggy pants that are of a grey fabric but transitions into a teal colour downwards. He wraps his bare feet and arms (as well as knuckles) with white cloth.

Astra: Her hair is blond and thin, both sides shaved, while the top descends down in a long ponytail, if it were free, it would hide the undercut. She wears and open vest of miscellaneous furs, and a white cloth wrapped around her breasts, though it still shows her muscular torso and a necklace with a religious symbol. She has a skirt that reaches her knees, a mixture between a loincloth and a boho open leg skirt. Its fabric is a mixture of blues and whites. She wraps her bare feet and arms (as well as knuckles) with white cloth.

========================

Secret RO1: Scary, armoured, helmet, eyes.

========================

Secret RO2: Rich clothes, a beard, wide, kind.
