Which shields looks the best on a female assassin? It seems like most shields hover 5 inches from her arm, but there must be some skins that doesnt?

they is no right or wrong answer to this kind of question since it's based on opinion. The short answer is that the best looking shield will be whichever one a particular player thinks it is. One person could say Draconic while another claims Plated looks best...and both would be correct.

Indeed. In which case, a mod will come along and shut down this thread pretty quick unless you rephrase your question to, "Are there any shields that don't hover really far away from a female assassin's arm?" Or something like that. Give us a specific quality you're looking for in shields, not just an opinion on aesthetics.

personal preference, aureate aegis, dyed black/blue

Tormented Shields are traditionally the coolest shields in the game. Not only do they have a cool purple animation, but they are incredibly rare and difficult to obtain. Acquisition of a Tormented Shield will render you one of the true elites among Guild Wars players, and in wearing your shield, you should receive complements of utmost genuineness regarding your skill, fashion sense, and tactical prowess.

Pretty much this. Our opinions have no impact on what you think is good so you'll have to figure it out yourself. If you're not sure on arm/shield distance, try asking for a picture in the screenshot forum.
