Vanity or Insanity?

I know I said I am wearing the Cuirass of Saviours hide (in !~What do you bear on your shoulders?~! thread), but I decided not to because I think it is so ugly, so I have to wear a robe to cover it, but then the robe goes like through the sheild which looks SO weird, so I decided I am not going to wear the Cuirass, but still keep the sheild, but if I wear a robe, I might wear the cuirass and leave the sheild at home, depending on what I wear, but I also feel like I got the cuirass way too early in the game, (I am at lvl.16) so I feel cheesy, so I doubt I will wear it at all until I am at like lvl. 25-30.
Also keep in mind I am a Breton, so I would benefit from the CE enchantments of the cuirass.
This is my idea unless someone gives me a reason to go against, so tell me what do you think?

Well I answered yes.
I also try to use stuff that looks good. Sometimes it's hard to find a set of items that actually match each other or even look slightly good, at least in my eyes. Usually I end up using an entire set of the same type, e.g glass, daedric or sometimes Indoril. Putting a robe on might work for some armors but as you said it can result in small pieces of the cuirass showing up on the character, which simply looks awful.
And when it comes to saving more powerful items for later I choose to agree and disagree. I'd really like to a "Required Level" option for items and spells. It would bring some depth and force one to use more advanced tactics. But at the same time I want to able to use any items I find right away. Otherwise I would probably forget that I have them and leave them in one of my houses. So it's a real dilemma....

well i think you are both vain and insane

(nice title btw)
seriously though, i agree totally with you, wear whichever one you need at the time, cuirass or shield. m sure there is a really skimpy robe i found somewhere, which my ebony tower shield didn't go through, although, you could always tell yourself its just the cloth folding over the shield

If we can stop the Beavis and Butthead imitations and get back to the thread's theme, who knows, it might stay open yet for a while.

i don get somthin , y wood any1 care for how they look?
isn't it about how good the armor works for u?
and if like the armor rating is ike 999999999999999999999999999999999999999 but u look like a retard.. i don no about u but i'd wear it
so i think that's y i support the 2nd choice "No i think it's silly."

That's the nice thing about the Knights of Tamriel series that Jeremy is doing as a mod. They're heavy, with an armor rating of roughly 140, and they look fantastic.
Here's the link to the main page, where you can see the series. Six of 'em are currently available.
