What's In Your Wardrobe?

[Guest Danielle2]

Your post made me think back as to how much I WOULD HAVE if I would have never purged multiple times! I can think back to many outfits that I adored that I really, really wish I still had. A beautiful little black dress I had in college comes to mind that was just short enough and hugged my curves in all the right places! OOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! I looked GREAT in that dress! It was as if it was made just for me! Did anyone else ever have (or still have) a dress like that? I would love to have that dress back now! Those were the days! When I lived alone and could dress anytime I wanted and for as long as I wanted (until the next class, that is!)

Anyway, here's what I have now:

4 bras, 12 panties, 3 slips, 1 bodice, 2 body-shapers, multiple pairs of panty hose, 2 garter belts and stockings, 3 dresses, 6 blouses, 5 skirts, 2 slacks, 3 sweaters, 1 belt, hoop earrings, a couple of necklaces, 4 pairs of heels, 2 wigs, and 2 purses (both full of makeup).

I don't think I forgot anything there.....Anyway, it's close enough. It's too painful because while I am trying to think of what I have presently, I keep thinking about some of the great stuff I used to have that I had forgotten about and it is becoming rather depressing!

Also, I keep it all in a big, old athletic equipment bag that I had when I played ball in college and it is safely locked up in a big cabinet out in the storage garage. My wife thinks it's locked because I don't want the kids or the dog getting into any of the paint thinner and lawn chemicals I have locked up in there! Let's just say that if she ever decided to fertilize the lawn, I think my secret would be out! Luckily for me, she doesn't have much of a "green thumb!"

hi

Since my first topic (telling one's spouse) actually went over better than I expected, I shall try another.

After reading some posts regarding wardrobes, I'm curious as to what all you/we have, where do you store it, if you have to hide it, where are some good places, how often do you update it. Or anything else you might like to share about your clothes!

Although the forum is for cross-dressers, any others (like those transitioning, for instance) are welcome to join in.

Let's see, I'll start, and at the top. I have three wigs, two brunette, both just over shoulder length, one fairly straight with bangs (I like bangs for some reason), the other a little wavy, the blond is longer (sort of a big hair, I bought it in a 'blond' moment - and I very seldom wear it anymore).

I have two dresses, one a black dressy sleeveless above the knee (the two -and others- in my early gallery pics are long gone), the other, also sleeveless but a more casual medium blue with white accents and double straps, just below the knee.

Four skirts, one tan and one black, both pencil shaped and above the knee (back zippered), the third a little white sport one that's rather short; the fourth is dark blue several inches below the knee, buttons up the front.

Three tops, a button up sleeved blouse with a muted animal print that goes with the tan skirt, a white button up sleeved blouse with pleats on the front that goes with the blue skirt, and a dark green sleeveless pullover that goes with the black.

Two pairs of shoes, dark blue pumps with about an inch or so heel, the other silver/gold strappy sandals with a 3 1/2" (or slightly more) heel.

A number of panties and bras, different colors, including a white longline, and a black strapless with garters. A black body shaper open at the legs, a panty girdle (no legs); cream thigh tops, black seamed stockings, several pairs of pantyhose dark and taupe, reinforced and nude. For sleeping, sort of a shear body suit that is extremely uncomfortable. Some accessories like clip on earrings, necklace, belts, my own cosmetics.

These all stay hidden because I have adult children that when not staying with us, still feel they have free run of the house as it's where they grew up. So mostly they're folded in a bundle or a garment bag both tucked way in the back of my closet, or occasionally in a large locked suitcase in the attic.

I actually purchased most of the above through mail order. A lot of thinking and looking as size charts, mostly I got it right, one or two things just a little roomy, one or two things a little tight. (but that's also a weight problem!!!) I once purchased a blouse at a real dept. store (way 'out of town') but a little too small. Long gone. Several items were retrieved (that my wife got, but hardly wore).

So, please share with the rest of us!

Hi truknights!

I'd like to welcome you to Laura's Playground where the people are quite caring and supportive, ideas and thoughts are shared by all, and even the snacks some of our moderators serve are quite tasty.

We'd all really love it if you could come over to the Introductions Forum and let us know just a little more about you, where I'm sure lots more people would be just as delighted to meet you.

Being a moderated forum, all posts are looked at before they're posted, so there is some safety in posting. Or if you'd rather not, that's fine too. We're still glad you're here and looking around.

Hugs

Chloë

P.S. I know that it takes a lot of courage to put up that first post. Many here lead a furtive life (sort of hidden) worried that people who aren't that kind may find something out and cause problems, but Laura's Playground is one of the safer places on the internet. We do truly care about everyone that joins.

Interesting to see the variety of clothing we girls have.

Mine is quite simple but nice. four dresses of which my favorite is the "little black dress", a couple of costumes (I love costumes!), about six bras and panties (one of which is the padded type), two sets of breast forms, two skirts & tops, a brunette longish wig and a blonde shorter one, 3" platform shoes, long satin gloves. I add to it as I can afford.

I've done a few "purges" in my life, disposing of several wardrobes. Wish I had all those now!

I'm rebuilding my wardrobe after many years. Today I stopped at Goodwill and picked up 2 blouses and a skirt for $16. I only need another pair of shoes and skirt/slacks to round out my stash. Of course this doesn't mean I'll quit adding stuff.

I just got a new Flexees One Fabulous Body Briefer and I can't tell you all how awesome they are. If you don't have one of these numbers you really need to get yourself one!

So today, my wife called me a fashion diva. I liked that! My closet is now so stuffed that I can't begin to list everything. But I'm wearing my favorite right now. It's a dusty rose dress with gold floral print. It has several layers that are thin enough to see through and the inside is a purple slip. Just the right amount of dignity and pizazz for an old lady. Can't wait to wear it to the CD club meeting next week.
