Light, female, vanilla: Scaled, Dawnguard, Fur (the ones with a full bodice, not the bikini versions).

Heavy, female, vanilla: Steel, Dawnguard.

Light, male, vanilla: Thieves Guild, Blackguard, Dawnguard.

Heavy, male, vanilla: Nordic Carved, Steel Plate, Dawnguard.

Modded: Too many to choose from, and it depends A LOT on the character. But I'm very fond of http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/7184/?, http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24342/? and http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/18008/?.

Heavy:

Male- Carved Nordic & Blades

Female- Iron & Dawnguard

Light: Male- Dawnguard & Thieves guild

Female- vampire or Dawnguard

Cloth:

Male- Mourners clothing with black boots or Tavern cloths with the Brown boots with lighter buttons

Female- Miners clothing with the lace-up boots and hood, I like the looks of the hide bracer's with this outfit, even if it is armor

Robes:

Male or female- Taron Dreth's robes or the Dragons cult robes.

For heavy armor it'd have to be orcish or ebony

Light armor probably dragonscale(elven armor makes your character look like big bird)

I don't really like any of the vanilla helmets though. Maybe the steel one with horns

I like Ancient Nord and Saviors Hide from the waist up ;)

You mean the Nord pimpin armor with the big black boa? :P

Same here, I like anything that looks battle worn and the Ancient Nord represents but I rock the steel Nord gauntlets with it...I almost never wear a matching set of anything.

Look at you sporting the sixy mod armor...traitor :P

Ebony armor or Nordic Steel Plate for a Nord warrior knight. Dragonplate also looks good for a Nord as does ancient Nord armor & heavy Dawnguard.

Dragonscale or light Dawnguard with a hood (cowl) for an Imperial Spellsword

ha I'm just messing with you, I'm happy for you kinsman :thumbsup:

If I were on PC then I would likely never use vanilla armor again and would probably pester a forum friend to create custom armor/weapons to my liking :P

Light: Full Fur - no helmet, Dawnguard - no helmet, Thieves Guild/Guild Master, Dragonscale.

Heavy: Iron, Dawnguard, Ancient Nord. Blades look good on females so I sometimes give it to my wife.

I think my personal favourite is to combine a full suit of Daedric armour with a Falmer helm. Looks way badass.

Nightingale Armour is ridiculous and silly looking and in no way inconspicuous, so I quite like that. Heavy Dawnguard Armour I also think looks great.

My most used and favourite is Orcish though, even though I prefer Light Armour for speed and stamina regeneration.

My favorite combo is :

Hide,Nordic Carved gauntlets & boots,Jagged Crown,Nordic Carved Shield.

Full set...I would say Blackguard's or any of the Thieves Guild armor variants.
