From a tender age, all she ever wanted was to sail the seas of Tyria...
I wanted to go for a dignified appearance for my mesmer and avoid the revealing armor pieces that plague many human females. This was also the closest I could get to a "light pants" look, though the ribbons on the pants look somewhat gaudy. You can't really see it in the pictures but the dyes make it look like she's wearing dress shoes (though with blue socks!), which I thought was a nice touch.
