My Outfits Pt1

I will be doing a few of threads to show some outfits that I wear. I have always liked heels and stockings, and think my legs look great, even if the rest of me isn't femminine in shape. I particularly like to see myself in 10 denier, Barely Black, stockings, but on seeing these pics I think I actually look better in the natural coloured stockings. What I really would like to know is your opinions on what looks best, the red or black shoes. The black shoes are my favourite pair of shoes, had them for a couple of years and re-heeled once, but since I got the red ones I like to wear them a lot, but they don't go with everything.

This is the tartan mini I bought, this isn't my final vision for this outfit, as I would like to get a white flouncy/ruffled blouse for this, and possibly a wee sporran, but I think the natural stockings and red shoes go really well with this. If Sephora is looking at this, these are the same red shoes in the "jeans" pictures.

Margaret, you look lovely in that outfit, truly.

If I were to choose, I like the combinations in the first pic and the fourth. The lighter stockings look great with the red shoes.

You've got a great sense of style, young lady. :)

Dang, Girlfriend yourself Donna Jean. Your eyesight must be pretty good to see my blue eyes in those pics! I did use a bit to much photoshop magic on the face, but the shadows and the lines caused by the flash were a bit harsh and distracting, and just general adjustment of levels elsewhere. Carolyn Marie..."young lady" :lol: Thanks (I'm over 50).

I apologize, Hon.....

Don't knock photoshop, it just gives a little help to what the Goddess gave us! :D

Tip I've used for the flash harshness. You could add a plain white tissue, possibly even one sheet of a double Mansize, draped over the flash, it cuts down on the harshness.

Alternatively, if you have a spare flash, add a remote that fires when your camera main flash fires, again, you can use a tissue over the actual flash, but aimed behind you, on your backdrop cloth, a little experimentation to get the best effect, and thank goodness for digital cameras, no taking it to a chemist or photolab!

Donna Jean, no need to apologise. I regularly use a bit of trickery when I do self portraits, and you can also pull and tweak a fair bit to "enhance" a full length shot to give a more femminine figure. Petra Jane, thanks for the tips. I have used a stocking over a flash before to soften the light, and I think I have a slave sensor somewhere. I was really trying to do to much in one night with 4 or 5 outfit changes, but now I have an idea of what I think looks good on me, I will stick to one outfit and concentrate a bit more on the photography. The ironic thing is, I really hate being photographed in real life. Without trying to sound vain, I really like seeing myself en femme, as I feel I can see so much more of my soul and character in Margaret, than in pictures of me as my everyday self.

Once again you're looking wonderful. I love the picture where you've flared the skirt out with your hands, it's very cute. I think the black shoes work best for this outfit, but I must say I am still particularly fond of the red heels. I'm so jealous of your hair too! It's a very cute and flirty style.

      Personally, I despise the antics of the "swing" states. Double-minded and unstable, shifting every time the wind blows.  OK, so the Lt Governor of Georgia doesn't like Trump.  Small potatoes.... given the 2020 results, nobody counts on Georgia anyways.

      Its midnight here...so, technically morning   I had a really weird evening, and learned something new about politics.  My sister, who is running for public office as our township constable, received a "present" today, left on the hood of her patrol car.  An axe!  Wrapped in a bundle of sticks (dowels?).  The sheriff received one also, and a couple other candidates.  Now, my first thought was it was meant as a threat, and I was freaked out when she told me.  But she wisely identified it as political criticism:   During the 2020 election, a small dissident minority objected to our sheriff, and labeled him "Mussolini."  Apparently the symbol of the F@scist Party came from ancient Rome.  An axe, circled with rods, and the whole bundle was called "fasces" and represented the authority of the state.  Roman officials would have them symbolically carried ahead of them through the city on parade.  Other nations used it too, including the USA.  But since the 1920s, it is mostly associated with a certain political party.  Either I was never taught this in high school, or I didn't notice it.    So, it appears that this election season will have some interesting aspects.  And I have been asked to put gold spray paint on an axe, to make it like a trophy.

      Welcome @Vivelacors!  For myself and many others here it is a similar theme.  But, I can assure it's never too late.  I hope that you will discover that as you explore and connect with more of us on the Forum.    You've already taken the most important first step ... Self-Affirmation.  I am wishing you the best in continuing this process. Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      I can remember as a teenager being a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints and living in the bible belt. It was always a little hard-I think religion is just tricky anyway.    I was referred to a couple of ladies at church by my mum who gave me very good advice.  One has known those who are are trans- and how they approched it.    The other has two people in their life who identify differently. They also gave other ideas to assist me.     I do like ideas though.

      If I am leaving the house I will almost always do makeup.  Not over-the-top but enough to feminize my face (eye shadow, mascara), lipstick, and a light cover of a concealer and foundation. I found my favorite lipsticks are Maybelline.  But the concealer/foundation I 'discovered' in Neutrogena Hydro Boost - Hyaluronic Acid based.  For 'older' gals like me I find it moisturizes and doesn't dry into those annoying fine lines (I have enough of those already).    Hopefully, after facial hair removal I might not feel the need as much.

      I think it just comes down to a lot of people not knowing anything about the lgbtq+ community besides what reactionaries online and on TV say. In my experience, people who have a lot more day-to-day contact with gay and trans people, have lgbtq+ friends or family, coworkers, etc. are a lot more accepting because they know an lgbtq+ person, and know that we aren't anything like what the people on TV say we are.

      Actually the bill seems to be so thoroughly confusing that I doubt that enforcement is even possible.  It could however incite vigilante style actions.  A false accusation against a "looks challenged" Cis woman is very likely to happen early on.  So what will happen in the case of those situations?  I have a script in mind over the sad average looking daughter of one of the legislators getting tangled into one of those situations.  I don't know whether it would be a comedy or a tragedy at the minute.

      I don't know yet. I'm sure there is going to be a big crowd. I also would have to keep up with the kids and probably won't enjoy myself mostly. 
    • Ashley0616
      I can understand that. My Keurig is used for hot water mostly and when my mom comes. I mostly use a regular coffee maker. I have had that for 5 years now. I had a Bunn but it didn't last long. I also have a French press and rarely use that. I would love to get a cappuccino maker but that is for later on. Starbucks is getting expensive. My kids favorite thing there is the cake pops. I found out that Walmart Neighborhood Market has them. Typical me getting off topic. lol

      After many years in denial, I have finally acknowledged my femininity. After quite a long life, so much time has been wasted. Now I feel I am too old to enjoy the freedom I now feel. All I can contribute to those who need to embrace their true gender, be BRAVE and don,t waste time!
