Btw, this is a serious question I am not trolling or something...simply an MMO newb I guess.
A 'Vanity System' is a game system designed to allow you to wear whatever equipment you want for stats, while also allowing you to use whatever other equipment you'd like for the visuals.

Several Examples -

Transmog/Reskin - You take two items, one for stats and one for looks, combine them to have the looks and stats on the same item.
Most 'famous' example - WoW

Vanity slots - You have seperate equipment slots for all visible gear that will display instead of your 'stat equipped' gear.
LoTRO, Rift, etc.

Styles System - You can use the look of any item you've previously equipped before while having whatever else equipped. Or the system is designed so that your visuals and stats are seperate.
DCUO, City of Heroes/Villians, Champions Online, etc.
