Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

I really can't believe that one tiny hairclip costs over 2,000 BD...
I know everyone has their own tastes, but I want to hear does anyone actually LIKE these scruffy outfits??
I can't believe they are compulsory due to some goals  goutte I mean.. they could have at least have made the compulsory outfits pretty... Oh well. To finish this on a positive note, I DO like the Jerrica outfit.

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

And I do detest the Jerrica outfit and think it is foul where as I do not mind the other two at all and think some of the peices are really quite fun!

As you said it really is personal taste and remember not everyone likes "pretty".

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

I love the heroic outfit lol. I find it very different and, I don't know, refreshing.
I didn't like the Ether when I started out, but it kinda has grown to me during this time..

At the start I found the Jerrica outfit very cute and I even bought the whole outfit when I could. Now it just bugs me lol..

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

The Heroic Fantasy outfit is meant to be a costume and it does that job well. I like the hairclip and neck ruff that comes with it. The socks are far too costumy to pair with anything else, but the top has its charm too.

Jerrica? Very cute, if kind of childish. Not to mention that the pieces are versatile and can match with the rest of one's wardrobe. I love every single piece of the set.

Ether 27? Rather strange, very cyberpunk. Difficult to mix and match, although the belt and hairclip are favorites. Very quirky bag and jacket that I love but can't quite pair with anything else. I detest the top and shorts.

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

was reading the descriptions and have seen the pieces seperately but nowhere near able to afford to buy them yet and wanted to know what they looked like together.

If anyone is interested all the outfits are already posted on this link:

I think I just don't get why they're so expensive for what they are, you know? Like the shorts are so tiny they're almost NOTHING and yet they cost so much! O_o

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

I'm not too fond of the heroic outfit, but I think it's because it's so expensive and I know I have to own it eventually.  I have resentment over this.

I like the ether outfit and I find it easy to use sepretly - ok it's wacky and I wouldn't get away with it IRL but that makes it all the more appealing!

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

I really love the ether's outfit--especially the jacket, I think it's very hot....except the shoe and the bag, i definitely don't like those...however, everything else I love dearly..

The jerica outfit, at first, I liked it but for I had bought very early in the game but now, I don't like it at all..I don't even want to dress my bimbo in it..it's that bad..

The heroic fantasy outfit, it's cute but the top it's kinda over the top...love the hairclip, shorts, earrings and necklace...not a huge fan of the sockings, though...

I do believe it was Dolly Parton who one said ‘It costs so much to look this cheap’.

I think the prices are a rather good reflection of real life. You get nasty stuff costing $8,000 next to a really nice top that is $80.

It’s fashion. Fashion isn’t always kind on the eyes.

Re: Heroic & Ethers - so ugly yet so expensive. :'(

I hate that outfit with the diffferent colored striped and torn stockings. Eeeeew. Who would wear that ? And I found out it is a compulsory outfit in one of the levels. So, I have to waste my dollars buying something I would otherwise never use. Yuck!

I like both. My bimbo never actually wears ethers, but she puts on heroic fantasy every so often!

yeah for level 15, you are supposed to save an outfit with jerrica clothes (top, jacket, skirt, socks, shoes, beret, necklace, belt and bag.) To help you on your way they'll give you the beret, necklace, belt and a bag.

I object! I always pair it with the sailor nine skirt, the black leather jacket, the pink corset and ladyslippers and the heroic hairclip, and it kinda works IMO.

Personally, I really like the heroic outfit, dont mind elements of the ether outfit, and detest the jerrica outfit.

I'm wearing the ether jacket just now - I love the way the pink and green clashes but works so well!

I like some parts of each outfit. The only one I really dislike is the Jerrica outfit.
