Excerpt from my story

This is an excerpt from the story I am writing. This characters role is like that of Jezebel or Herodias, kniving and manipulative. Hope you enjoy :)
God Bless

P.S. Vivian helped me a bit on this section, so you can give her some credit too.

"The horse was black in colour, even it's eyes were dark and empty. It was fitted with a golden bit and harness. All the fastenings and hoops were golden and the reins were laced with tiny silver threads that seemed to shimmer in the light of the lanterns. The horn on the saddle was a massive diamond and precious stones of all types ran along the edges. The saddle itself was laced with tiny platinum threads and it too seemed to glimmer in the light, but it was a much more mystifying and dark shimmer, as if the saddle had something to hide. The horses hooves were shoed with silver and gold intertwined with each other and they seemed to be the only feature that you could see clearly in the darkness. Maeve herself wore storm-blue culottes which loosely hugged her hips and thighs. They had dark green threads woven through them and ran right to her ankles. Gradually becoming transparent as they went down her leg, the culottes started to appear translucent at about the mid-thigh and were almost completely see-through as they reached her ankles. The fabric, even at her ankles, was much stronger and much more durable than cotton and yet, softer than silk. She wore a long sleeved cardigan that was knotted just below her breasts, revealing a very smooth, bare midriff. Flaunting a rather stunning bust, the cardigan was also storm-blue in colour, with dark green threads running through the fabric. Encircling her waist was an elaborate platinum-gold cincture of dragons joined at the front by a small silver buckle of the serpent-torch symbol. Most of her long blonde hair was put up in a bun while the rest hung down to her shoulder blades in an elegant fashion. The bun was held in place by a platinum clasp that bore the same serpent-torch symbol as her cincture. Her brow was gently dusted with a fine golden powder that accented the glimmer in her emerald green eyes. Dark honey-toned skin gave her an exotic quality that allured all who beheld her. Her narrow face was accented with finely shaped cheek bones and a perfectly regal chin. Only the slightest bit of scarlet decorated her lips while the blush of her cheeks delicately heightened her natural beauty. Her quaint ears were adorned with half-moon platinum earrings that danced and twirled with her every movement. She sat very tall on her horse despite standing just over 5 feet tall, and was of a slender build. A silver necklace with the half-moon pendant hung around her neck, dancing softly amidst her slightly exposed chest. On her right hand, her middle and ring fingers were adorned with elegant white-gold rings: one bore the symbol of a dragon clutching a dark red ruby in it's talons, while the other had the serpent swallowing the torch from the bottom, it's eyes fixed with tiny amber stones. Her beauty caused all who saw her as they entered the gates to stop what they were doing and stare."
