The Best and Worst Dressed Scorchios in Neopia!


by spukl1

--------

Greetings Neopia! This is Miss Prickles, the Fashionable Uni, here to make note of the most and least stylish Neopians. This week’s report centers around one of the oldest species known to Neopia: Scorchios. They fly across the skies, breathe fire and have scales from head-to-toe, but which ones do this in style and which ones fall short? Here is who made the list.

Neopia’s Best Dressed Scorchios

1. The Kelp Maitre D’ . This Scorchio is the best dressed around. He represents the Kelp well in his deeply colored tux with tails. The light green accents match surprisingly well with the purple tone of his jacket, and also makes his eyes POP, which is always a bonus. The Kelp Maitre D’s high class attire is complemented by his sophisticated manners and air of elegance. I am sold on any meal he recommends… based on his clothes, I trust his taste!

2. The Scorchio Knight . What can I say? I adore the head-to-toe armor! It shows he absolutely means business, and silver is a flashy color that is great to wear all over. Hailing from Brightvale, he represents his land with a fashionable tunic, and wings to match. The Knight wields not one, but two weapons! He is unassailable, wonderful and very well dressed, I would be proud to have him defending my land.

3. Sharpeye . Here is an example of wearing ruffles done right! Wrist ruffles that peep out from his sleeves, are the proper (and one of the only) ways to wear ruffles. The monochromatic blue hat-jacket combination is a smart choice, it keeps the look simple when it could easily be overwhelming. I love that he completes his look with golden buttons, and a chic, simple turtleneck. As a whole, Shapeye looks superb.

4. Torchio . For this fiery fiend, simplicity is key. He understands how to balance out his natural look. With flames surrounding his body, too much customization would be overwhelming. Luckily, Torchio has learned this and applied his styling to create a uniformly fierce look. Torchio wears a simple pair of red laced-up shorts with orange accents. These shorts blend with the flames of his body, creating a style that is appropriately a-blaze!

5. Scorchio Avenger . The Avenger shows up in shades of blue. A fancy jumpsuit designed to take out his enemies, it provides a great background for his well-chosen accessories. He has a great blue eye mask, two swords flying through the air, a fanciful (and useful) utility belt, feet straps, and my absolute favorite, two cuffs around his arms. It all blends well together, his outfit is practical for his uses, looks comfortable and trendy. I can see all the young Scorchios walking along the streets dressed in the same manner. This is the outfit of the future.

Neopia’s Worst Dressed Scorchios

1. Rhiannon . Sorry to say this, but this maiden can do MUCH better. Rhiannon’s makeup is on point and I appreciate the classic hat, but the lack of gown and jewels is just sad. I knowwww, she’s trapped in a tower with no access to the newest looks but still… What she needs is a Flowy Spring Gown, which will match her hat, and some Sparkling Emerald Earrings that will take her look from Maiden to Princess. In this new outfit, all the knights, princes included, will join forces to save her from that wretched tower.

2. The Scorchio Alchemist . I’ll just say it… it is the ruffles around his neck that land him a spot on the Worst Dressed List. Ruffles that close to your face do not frame it, they make you look a bit like a clown. It is shameful because I LOVEEEE his double buttoned purple blazer, it is soooo fashionable. I’d like to also point out, he is channeling Kauvara a little too closely with that pointed starry hat. Now for my recommendations: LOSE THE RUFFLES, they are completely unnecessary, and lose the starry hat, choose a simpler version, in black. The Scorchio Alchemist should take notes from Sharpeye on how to dress, and how to wear ruffles!

3. Gog . Gog needs to elevate his outfit, Neopians only see him as a laborer because that is how he dresses. His actual job is a jewel dealer! Super fancy! He deserves to dress to fit that role. As a great golf pro as well, someone needs to buy Gog a set of Golf Clubs with Fuzzy Covers. To combine the best of both Gog’s worlds, he should trade out his current fabrics for a Basic Black Collared Shirt and a pair of Vivid Plaid Trousers! Gog will not only be golf appropriate, but will also be taken seriously as the outstanding jeweler he is.

4. Rhan Tyr . I just don’t quite know what Rhan is wearing. The hat is not practical, and his scarf just seems to blend into his body. If the goal is to avoid being seen when flying through the air, he should switch to wear a Stealthy Scorchio Shirt and Trousers. Keep the goggles on to keep your eyes safe Rhan! Fly without a care in the world, and without a Neopian spotting you, but do it with a sense of style.

5. The Talihook Kid . Still fresh on the scene, the Talihook Kid still has time to refine his style. I am not impressed with his basic choices: a sash and a simple t-shirt. He competes against some of the most elite Neopians in the Food Club, and is cheered on by a great crowd. The Talihook kid is in need of a style makeover. He needs a Scurvy Pirate Jacket and a Pirate Scorchio Hat. It would be much more presentational and bring him into the ranks of the best dressed!

Scorchios are great fun, many of them grace Neopia with their fine styles, and some are lacking in that area. Friends, let me know if you agree or disagree with my evaluations. There are a prodigious many fabulously famous Scorchios and I had a hard time narrowing down my list! Now, that is all I have to report today, I adore you all!!

Fashionably yours,

Miss Prickles
