Looking for help on this outfit! I'm almost finished with my Winter's Presence shoulders so I'm trying to revamp my look a bit in order to fit it into my year-round style. I'm pretty attached to all the pieces here but am struggling to make their colors work together. The greens from The Crossing and Grenth Hood play alright with the CoF shoulders/gloves/boots so long as I keep my dyes a neutral black/goldish but I think once I add the Winter's Presence shoulders is just going to get super busy.

I've tried working with some green dyes but even the darkest ones like Midnight Green and Shadow Green still just look wrong with the flames. I tried confining the greens to my chest/leg pieces but then I've got a greens/blacks/flames issue and we're right back to it being busy.

Anyone most talented with color than I am have some ideas or suggestions?

I kinda like Grenth Hood with the CoF items
I would probably find some other chest and legpiece though, as the pattern with high contrast colors makes it look a bit "busy"

as for colors, try experimenting with colors closer to the green glow and fire colors which you can't change.
if you search for "Mordrem" on this site, you will find a lot of great examples of people mixing green with orange/yellow, and i think the same idea could be applied here :)

I would maybe try another top, the leggings kinda work for me
The Mordrem approach Roamin mentioned was already really nice, maybe just try to go with a metallic green and gold/flame accents? Just try to tone it down a bit so you dont look like a Halloween pumpkin :p

Wait are you gonna put the Winter's presence on this mix ? If it's a yes I think the flames part aren't gonna fit.

But the mix you have here isn't bad, maybe if you change the flames part for something more... Classy ? (I don't know the name of the armor in english sorry :( )
