okey dokey I'll help you out lol. Anyways, fairies when they are in our world they could look funny or pretty. I assume you want the fairy to look pretty. Female fairies have gorgeous hair and they can be modern, short, or long but they have flowers growing out of their heads like its amazing. their wings (altough they dont need them) mimic animals so it could look like a bats, butterflys and you get the point. Their outfits are super duper cute and they blend in well with their surrondings. like a fairy that cares for a rose would typically wear red (but not plain red it has lots of gorgeous details) And fairy gowns are extremely detailed like full on sparkles with flowers and crazy stuff. fairies can be barefooted and a lot of them do wear shoes and its up to you how you want to design them. Aaand the dress is made out of natural stuff like flower petals, twigs, leaves, fire(for fire fairies)…. Plus, a fairies skin colour could be like a humans skin colour tan, fair, dark but a lot of fairies skin are purple pink red and stuff. for face, they wear crazy makeup like bright colours, flower or spider web patterns on their face, and jewels. their eyes are different colours like pink, green, or even rainbow. they also have tattoos on their bodie (but its not painful applying it). they also have pointy ears. i only described for earth fairies. water, air, and fire fairies are different

they have extremely detailed wands too

@facecat i do know that some fairies do like to wear more natural makeup and it does sounds a bit disneyish (i just realized it lol) but i did not meant they wear loads of makeup. fairies are not all the same and fairies do use flower petals and such and it is possible fairies wear more medival clothing but im not saying all fairies do. Faes do use wands not all of them do just only certain faeries do and they obviously know how to use their own power and yes they are in energy forms but some of them can change form but it takes alot of work and skill. ONLY fire fairies wear fire. I have been on this website a lot of times and others as well and i did do reasearch. I know others say different things about the fae but this is pretty true although it may sound crazy because im not very good at explaining things well. sorry but i thought i should put that out there :)

I know its too confusing its hard to explain tho. check out these links you will know what i mean

about fire fairies

i tried to find the link of what fairies wear but i could not find it sorry, i totally understand how that makes you feel because i thought the same too

I agree with BlueTiger-  noone can really say what a faery does or doesnt wear.   Some have actually seen the Faery that do actually look like Tinkerbell in a way-    Even Brian Froud painted a few like them.  There are so many kinds of Faery-  we will  never know unless it has been given to us to cross over into the other dimensions to actually see for ourselves.   Some , I've been told ,  enjoy colors alot- and they do enjoy hair styles.  My co-worker who had seen a faery as a child mentioned how the female faery she saw had her hair up in a Victorian Bouffant hairstyle while wearing a dress.   Many have seen these Beings in various dresses,  and the male ones in various styled pants and shirts.– some with suspenders too.     I read a testimony of one who saw a Gnome wearing a vest with lots of interesting items this gnome had found sewn on the front of the vest.

The Faery that I saw 3 years ago threw me off guard, because I expected that all faeries – if they exist-  must look like Cicely Mary Barkers Flower Faeries.     I had never seen all of  Brian Froud's paintings prior to my encounter.      After my encounter, I scoured the bookstores , like Barnes&Noble, to see if I could find anything on valid Faerie Encounters.    Mostly I found folklore books- which I don't really take all that seriously–  but when I asked the clerk if there were any more, he brought me right to the Brian Froud collections.     I checked out the Good Faerie/Bad Faery book and saw the male version of Pixies that he painted–   who looked VERY much like the Being I encountered- only she was much more softer and cultured looking.    They were in the "Bad Faery" section of the book, yet the Being I saw was not Bad–  but actually very humble, calm, sweet – and empathy was glowing out of her eyes toward me.  She was feeling my pain I was feeling over a family argument the night before.

I had never seen most of Brian Froud's artwork before this- so this is why I think Brian Froud is gifted with an open-ness to receive from these Beings that other artists don't have.– maybe they just love the way he paints them and so they reallly went out of thier way to get him to perceive them.

Glamour was something one used quite often. Even my self as Sidhe i used glamour. Not always though. I dont remember any highheals being warn or some one puting on makeup. As i dont see the need really. The site above i havnt checked it out though i sence that things in it isnt all compleatly right. Also though not all is false with the site as well. What Mr. E has discribed are many common types of fairies. There are many more than just those that he has spoken of. Though the list can take to much time for one to really list. As i couldnt spell many of them any ways.   You didnt do anything wrong in my eyes Faecat. You was defending what you feel in your heart. I dont see no harm done.

I recommend checking it out because i like to know from you guys if the website is actually saying true things about fairies because im new to it. It seems to me that a lot of you know soo much more than me and its good cuz i get to learn:)

In this case, I did check the site and here's my opinion:  I noticed that most (if not all) of the information seems to be coming from "Ophelia Fey, Fairy"  but I couldn't find where they explain who she is, if she is real, or how and why she is communicating.  Perhaps the artist behind the site, Mary S. Schulte, is communicating with some pixies but I just don't see any real solid evidence of that. There isn't anything on the site that seems as if it is coming directly from faery and a lot of it seems to confuse elementals with fae (not uncommon).  Anyway, my gut feeling is that this is a fictional site aimed at tweens and younger, used to support the artist's work.
