I'm not much help because I just go by what I think looks cool, but I'd say that pawns are a great resource. People do some really good armor combos with their pawns, so whenever I see one I like I'll stop them and check their gear and defense stats, so that's a pretty handy resource to keep in mind while you're playing.

There's a ton of great gear in the Everfall, of course, but aside from that, one of my favorite combos is Gambeson + Archer's Culottes (torso), Twilight Manicae (arms), thong + Assassin's Breaches (legs), Magnanimous Cloak + Dragonblood (accessories), and for the head I use Laurel Circlet (or a mask, if you have one), I think, which has good magic defense.
