When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die, and no one knows that better than House Lannister, the most influential family in all of Westeros. House Lannister is incredibly wealthy, and use their money to control almost everything in the country (even if House Baratheon is technically the current ruling family).
The Lannister family sigil is the lion, and their motto, “hear me roar,” perfectly encapsulates their proud, yet oftentimes snobby personalities. Known for their golden hair, intelligence, and ruthless scheming, the Lannisters are a family you don’t want to cross. (You especially don’t want to get on Joffrey’s bad side.) Though they may seem like the bad guys, Lannisters are extremely loyal – to each other, that is.
Their enormous wealth and fondness for all that glitters makes the Lannisters among the show’s best-dressed characters. House Lannister boasts some incredible outfits, from Cersei’s sumptuous royal gowns to Jaime’s perfectly-tailored Kingsguard getup.

Put an edgy twist on Lannister House symbolism by pairing a spiked graphic tee (featuring a roaring lion, of course) with a pair of oxblood skinny jeans. Since Lannisters are excellent soldiers, add a military-style jacket for a more rugged feel. Next, grab a pair of killer black ankle booties and a gold messenger bag to amp up the edge factor, then complete the look with a few meaningful accessories. A lion bracelet honors the family crest, while gold, knot-shaped earrings symbolize the family’s loyalty to each other.
