Belinda's Back And Loving Every Minute

[Guest Roberta-Belinda]

I have had a five week hiatus from dressing due to my personal circumstances. I did dress as Belinda all day on Friday, but somehow the session did not seem right. Not sure if the combination of dress and tights was quite right or whether it was because I had things weighing on my mind. Decided to dress again on a whim after midnight and I feel absolutely right. I am not wearing anything particularly glamorous just a simple grey off the shoulder blouse and a black and white skirt from an inexpensive store in the uk called Peacocks. What has really made the outfit for me is a lovely pair of black tights in 90 denier. They feel so warm and snug. Wearing this outfit has really rolled back the years I feel a pretty twenty-something office girl. I craved this look back in the 80's when I used to envy all the young girls who worked in my office, how I wish I could have looked and dressed like them with their black tights and stiletto heels.

Just like Cinderella I do not want the night to end. I am having a ball singing and dancing in the mirror to one of my favourite girly cd's Rita Coolidge's Greatest Hits.

It's really great to divest myself of my male side and be a soft Woman again. I am relaxed at peace with myself and loving every minute. I am so completely and utterly proud of my femme side.

Welcome back, Belinda. I love the way you describe how you feel, and what you are wearing, and what you're doing. I can sense your joy and fulfillment. Thanks for sharing with us, and I hope that you get to be yourself many more times in the coming days and weeks.

I love the Cinderella feeling. I also just hated the idea that midnight would come. Enjoy those glass slippers.

Hugs,

Missed you a little Belinda. I'm happy to see you back .

You know it is interesting when you (and others here) describe what they have been wearing. I build up a mental picture of myself wearing the same clothes and what occasion or whereI would like to be when I do. I also for a picture of the wearing the clothes. You will have me going to Peacocks looking for the skirt lol.

The Cinderella feeling too I have recently known. I was working on an outfit that would work for Halloween. Specifically the choker to finish it but I still have not got it done. Maybe next year? I had no occasion to wear it anyway . It would have been very risky out alone as it is rather Goth with short dress so would really attract attention. I was thinking more of the Goth weekend at Whitby but yet again I missed out. Cinderella sigh.......

I so totally agree with your last paragraph though!

I don't much about what is common in Wales or the rest of the UK for that matter but, I bet its a lot easier to wear a kilt (cilt in Welsh) than here in the States? I and a few others wear them from time to time but if you don't have matching bagpipes you get stares and not a utility kilt that's made of bloody heavy canvas. My pleated ones feel soo good as they swish around. True, not as good as wearing the whole girl kit but, the lasses that prefer trousers get the message.

Glad you were able to enjoy time dressed, Belinda! I've had no time at all to do so in the last 5 months. I'm getting a bit grumpy. I do agree on the tights! I love 60 - 70 denier stockings with a suspender belt. No need to wear socks under work trousers. And similar with tights - very warm and cosy! And so long as I have my boots, I am totally happy.

My work wear? Matching satin camisole, suspenders and 60 denier stockings, lacy knickers, and mid-calf real leather ladies boots (no heel). All under black jeans and a polo shirt. It can be done - and I love being there and doing it.

So glad you could be yourself!

Hugs
