Only level 32 with 1,000 hours?
If you don't plan on doing the Brotherhood,http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Linwe%27s_Armor#Linwe.27s_Armor is a fine choice for any thief not afraid to lift a blade.
Unless you like dressing up as a gimp, don't join the Dark Brotherhood if it's outfits and armor that are your prime focus. You'll probably find a more fitting look by joining the Thieves' Guild. However, as for the guilds themselves, the Dark Brotherhood probably has the best quest line, IMO.
Linwe's Armour or Thieves Guild Armour.
Nightingale is too batmanish. DB is awful.
Vanilla leather armour is also ok.
Slight faction armor spoiler:
The dark brotherhood armor leaves a lot to be desired.
Vampire armour with your own enchantments on it would fit the bill.
