For a while now i have been at a standstill i had told my parents but i had not crossdressed since i was 5 or 6. just the other day i went to the mall with a friend and we bought a few basics and now im hooked. i hope to have a full wardrobe in the next few months.

I havent dared try makeup yet but im happy just being dressed (complete with homemade breast forms) i am soo happy!!

Im going to go shopping by myself next time just to gain confidence and so im not so dependant on my friends.

anyways, thanks for all of your help and support everybody!

P.S what are the little transparent hangy bits by the straps of a dress for?

Contagious - be careful! HA Are you talking about the little cloth loops for securing the dress to the hanger? They slip over the hook.

My first breast forms were water balloons - feezing cold at first!

Shopping - isn't it FUN :)

You'll find that its really no big deal to go into a store and buy whatever you want. The salespeople are usually very nice and helpful. After a few times, if you havn't done it yet, you'll get more comfortable and start trying things on at the store.

It makes it so much easier. You don't have to return something if its too big/small. Plus you get to see what it looks like on you instead of just on a hanger. I've seen many things that I thought I would like only to put them on and then wonder what I was thinking... :wacko:

OMG Lizzy, my first ones were latex gloves filled with water... Those were the days...

Also rolled up socks! And pantyhose stuffed into a ball, and I have heard some CDers use rice in cotton bags for a realistic weight - hummmm, if you are on a desert island, you wouldn't go hungry!

I once made forms using gel from whereever - gel in the computer wristpads work, cut in half with scissors, put in those Chineese rice bowls, heat the gel at 150 and it melts - the bowl are rounded inside - smokes a bit so i wolud wait until no one was home! Awwww crazy days! Blue gel = blue breasts!

So whats the best home made breast form? I am quite partial to pantyhose rolled up in a ball, ooh, and I have tried, don't laugh, but those sponge ball things that you use in the shower...they aren't sponge, its not cloth...tis like a rough, frilly type material, in a ball, good for washing your body with soap...but yeah, two of those, same size. Realistic look, but gets itchy, doesn't feel too right. What else could I use?

and congratulations on going out, great for you! :)

Hey thisismylife!!

Good going!! Feels good doesn't it!! To go and and buy a dress that you love!! I applaud you to have the courage at your age to go out and buy the clothes that are you!! I furthur applaud you in your desire to shop by yourself (now that is really an experience, especially the first time!!) you will remember it always!!

When you decide to try makeup, I suggest the Neutrogena brand. For me, it works the best.

Now, as far as the transparent things on the dress, I don't know. None of my dresses ever had that. If I were to guess, maybe they have something to do with strap adjustment.

Anyway, congratulations!!

Love

Great for you. Honestly I'd still be far too afraid to shop for anything.

But once I get my driving license maybe I'll buy something. But personally I'd rather be able to order something online, people in shops here are too judgmental.

Congratulations thisismylife that is a real milestone that you have taken. Something I have not really managed to do yet, well not without being dragged into the shop Haha. As for breast forums, I have been quite lucky there, I am a little on the plump side and have man breasts which are quite big anyway and with the correct bra they look not too bad. Hopefully when I finally start HRT they will develop more into feminine breasts than the man boobs I have at the moment lol.

I can't believe i just said all that, im gonna hit add reply before i change my mind

      Same here.  My mind is a jumbled mess.  I'm no great philosopher, nor particularly educated.  Don't open my brain's closet, as all the junk might come tumbling out.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Its been a long day.  I had a good trip with my husband, kind of sorry I had to come home.  I mean, I love my partners, but I feel overwhelmed by the chaos at times.  It was nice being able to just drive and talk for two days, and not feel rushed at meals.  Stopped at a buffet off I-40 in Oklahoma, and I was able to nibble comfortably for two hours!  And taking a shower in a place where I don't have to bother hanging up the towels for later   Its all about the little things....

      Hi @AmandaJoy Welcome, and nice to meet you! Congratulations on your Self-Affirmation!  As you've already discovered you're in great company here on this Forum.  It took me 60+ years also.   I understand your thrill and desire to proceed full-steam-ahead but that you've already realized to meter your Journey.  So, I will just end with what I tell most new Members when they arrive ... Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      Did go in my shop and fix my truck,new front brakes.I got that done before it got worse.Luckily I did not drive it when it first started.Drove my car to work instead

      Hey @KayC I need another tutorial session on this place with you.  Maybe we can talk on Discord or the phone and I can share my screen and do a few messages while Asking you some questions about how this place is organized. How are you doing in the real world?? ... "real world" ???  What is this "real world" of which you speak?
    • Michelle_S
      @VickySGV Ha!  Finally figured THAT out!  Though I hate to confess just how long it took me to figure out WHERE to begin typing that "@" sign.  (So I just won't confess it!  ... giggles) I am not sure how private this message to you is ... for example I was going to make a guess about your location (you say near a major earthquake fault) and while there are many places in CA which fit that description, I live near one as well. But I am not sure if being asked that in a public forum is something you want, and I don't know if I am talking publicly or privately right now.  (So, obviously, till I learn what is what, I treat EVERYTHING as public). I think Kay might have already told me about the "@" sign but I forgot ... Guess I have blonde roots ... (I'm actually a Brunette ... Grey but the box keeps me a brunette ... still the number of mistakes I make and how slow I am with learning things constantly reminds me that I must be blonde on the inside!!  ... giggles)

      @KymmieL do they have you on anti depressants?  Are they certain they are the right ones for you?  Has a psychiatrist been involved?  My physician first put me on an anti depressant and when things got worse for me he added one that was the initial cause of my cancer.  My therapist recommended I had a different need changed things. My psychiatrist agreed with the particular underlying condition and the choice of medications.   everyone is different but if one medication isn’t working there are many different types and different underlying conditions that require different treatments.  No meds mentioned because what didn’t work and what did all depends on your case, not mine.   Willow

      To me loving myself means having the courage to live the way I want and to be me.     I hardly ever really like how I look but I feel good knowing I am trying to be the best version of myself that I can be. It is definitely a struggle sometimes though.  💗Cynthia

      I had a five hour road trip today.  I’m trying to grow my hair out so I just pushed it back with a pink hair band, lipstick and gloss, no makeup.    White spaghetti strap top, short black skirt, white sandals with pink toenails!  A couple of rings and bracelets, necklace and hoop earrings.   I felt like a hot mess but it’s my favorite way to travel!  
    • KymmieL
      Glad you had a good day, @Willow Mine on the other hand sucked. I have been screwing up again, I even got written up. I may have to educate them on major depression and disability. not that it will work.    OH, well. May be another job I lost because of me. Yes, my depression is about down at the magma level   Kym

      This bag is really working out for me.  I had worn out the back on my yin-yang bag so I picked this one up.  It wasn't long before I cut off the flap on it and braided a hemp strap for it.  The zipper is the best feature.  I can spin the bag around and I'm not afraid of losing anything.  I've taught myself to keep all the essential things in it and nothing more.  Here is what made the cut:   Notepad Sharpie Ballpoint Pen Teaspoon Glasses Phone (most of the time) Wired Headphones and/or Bluetooth Carmex and/or Lipstick Flash Drive Current Braiding Project Wallet Hair Clip   And on my keys I have my one inch Swiss Army Knife with scissors and a bottle opener that I like using with mason jar lids.   I don't miss pockets at all now.  The bag is fun and practical.  I can set it on the ground to get everything off my body.  If I need something, I'm looking for a fairly large object.  I always have something to work on with the braiding project.
