I used to play a gnome, and to be fair, I loved it. I would always laugh my ass off on every emote I did.
But, for some reason, when I came back on Cata, it wasn't nearly as funny anymore. Humans are fine but, not really my choice for caster, kind of stiff. But when I learned that dwarves were now able to be warlocks, I didn't think twice, I switched on the same day, haven't regreted the decision yet!
The visuals might not look great, dwarves in dresses don't look very good, but nevertheless, they are tons of fun to play as.

If I were to go horde, I'd probably either go Undead or Belf, imo Orcs seem too burly for a dress

Gnomes warlocks look good in my opinion but if you're going to PVP once max level you should go Human.
Why? Gnomes have their own version of
'Every man for themselves'
that everyone seems to forget about.

I was Horde fore about the entirety of my WoW playing. Until a few months ago. Similarly I wanted to try a Worgen, so made an Ally. The guild I found was awesome, so I transferred a few Horde > Ally and my Warlock is a Dwarf pluses: You don't have to see the tabard if you don't like it since your beard covers the front and you can wear a cloak/cape on your back. 10% damage reduction as a racial isn't a bad thing, for sure. And the animations to me just look better than other races. Humans are too spastic looking, Worgen flail their paws around and Gnomes ... well I just never liked them.
If you do go Horde, I always went Blood Elf and Undead. Orc is definitely "best" for min/maxing with their berserk racial, however I have heard good things about the new Undead racial with a passive "on damage" proc for a lifesteal effect. I just like Blood Elf casting animations, though. Especially for channels, it looks very commanding and arrogant.
Anyway, bottom-line is that it's mostly aesthetics for a lot of things these days. Undead/Orc racials are probably the best for Warlock right now, if you're min/maxing. Human's racial is always a PvP favorite, but the rest is just for looks. My lock's profs if it helps, are Tailoring (easy to level solo) and Inscription, which was horrible to level until I made another character go Herbalist. Tailoring/Enchanting is a classic for a reason. Especially on a caster for two rings that will give the "standard" bonus and tailoring, at least in Cata, was the best prof to have for it's casting bonus. Come MoP I see that either remaining true, or at least it going standard with the rest. Either way, it won't be a let down.
