Holiday Outing


Sally Stone

Recommended Posts

I am a member of a trans social group that meets monthly for dinner, and next weekend is our annual Christmas gathering.  I always look forward to this event because it is our yearly “glam” event, giving me the opportunity to wear one of my dressier outfits.

 

Of course, I’m always thinking about what I’ll wear on my next outing, but the Christmas Dinner event, has me pondering my outfit weeks in advance. 

 

After much contemplation I think I have settled on what I’ll be wearing.  My dress is a “little black dress” with a hemline that’s just wee bit shorter than what I’d normally wear, but this is a special occasion, so I’m throwing caution to the wind.  It has a scoop neck, long sleeves, and is made of a shimmery black fabric that makes it sparkle. 

 

I’m still undecided about footwear, but I’ve narrowed the choices down to two options.  One option is a pair of high-heel knee boots.  Paired with my dress, the combination is an edgy mix of styles.  The other option is a very sexy pair of stiletto-heel booties, which are dressier than my knee boots.  Both options look good, so I suspect it will be a game time decision.  Usually, I’d opt for a pair of dress pumps, but it is wintertime, and boots or booties work well in colder temperatures.

 

I’ve decided to compliment my dress with silver bling, and I’m particularly excited about wearing a favorite pair of rhinestone earrings.  They are really only appropriate for formal occasions, so I don’t get to wear them very often.

 

I plan to top off my outfit (no pun intended) with one of my “Glow Girl” wigs from Forever Young.  Glow Girl is a long flowing wig with a side-part, and it’s my go to style.  I own five of these wigs, all in different shades.  For Christmas Dinner I’ll be a strawberry blonde. 

 

So, I can hardly wait for next Saturday.  Before dinner, I’ll be meeting friends for drinks at the restaurant lounge.  The restaurant is in an extremely popular area, and consequently, it is always packed with people, making it a wonderful place to socialize.  Additionally, it will give me the opportunity to show off my holiday outfit.

 

Hugs,

 

Sally

I think I speak for everyone when I say: We demand pictures. It sounds like you'll look amazing!

ADMIN NAG here recommends that you load the pictures into your gallery here and link them to your posts instead of putting them in the posts.  Our galleries are only visible to members, but the forums are visible to the public who cannot follow the links in and clone the pictures.  Start your Gallery through the "Create" icon to the left of your profile icon.  It is much easier now than when I had less than 200 posts.

It's OK Vicky, we still love you.

 

Hugs!

That's a valid "nag" though.

Looking forward to seeing your outfit Sally!

Ladies,

 

I'd like nothing more than to provide images, but I have always been a little timid when it comes to posting them online.  That's not to say I've never done it, in fact, there are a couple of bio photos out there that accompany some of my online articles.  Still, I'm cautious about letting go of an image online.  I actually waffled a lot before I chose a selfie for my my avatar.  So, all I can say, is we will have to see.

 

Hugs,

 

Sally

Agreed. I have got to see this glam girl when she is all dressed up.  It sounds like a wonderful time and I can definitely see you are excited about the outfit.  
I look forward to feeling this way.

      Who says Harvard can't dance? This drag queen Harvard student knows her subject by heart and by voice!   IMG_2557.mov

      I agree. This law is impractical and impossible to evenly enforce without such ridiculous measures in place. What it will do is stigmatize the trans community in Oklahoma and nothing more but ofc, that’s the only point of it.   If I was in that state and needed a restroom, there’s no chance I’d ever step foot in the men’s restroom because of some law. I know I’m not alone in that thinking. This law won’t stand the test of time.

      I asked AI to create an image of myself 30 years younger based off my avatar on another site and this was the result:     Wow! I am amazed how close it got my 30 year old face!

      Quite true.  The amusing thing about opposites is how similar they can be.   My family left Greece because of the conflict between the communists and the militarists/fascists.

      This wouldn't even be a problem if they would just leave us alone.  It is a no-brainer.

      OMG.  I'm glad it wasn't worse, and you were able to get on it quickly.  Lots of blood can be scary.

      Like I said, I'm no tankie, but I do see a world of difference between Joseph Stalin and Bernie Sanders.   If the point is not wanting 'government control' the Right is pretty good at that themselves - as they've been demonstrating lately. This stuff gets complicated.

      So, I am curious. Is the Governor going to mandate vaginal or penile recognition photos before one enters the restroom? Considering the Governor has no balls to do the right thing, will he have to pee against a tree outside? Inquiring minds would like to know. I love it when the job recruiters contact me about the wonderful jobs available in Oklahoma. It is so much fun telling them there is no way I will ever go to Oklahoma. When there are no workers, then they can shutter the place.

      Ngl, probably Sonic the Hedgehog, the Beatles, or the Monkees. Those are the three subjects I know the most about so I could drop hours of info on them.

      Isaac Asimov, Albert Einstein and Robert Kennedy, in that order.

      Thank you! I'm out of coffee so I have been drinking hot tea instead. Looking forward to the 1st. It's crazy that we are almost in May. This year has flown by really quick! Good to hear that y'all got to sleep in. Hope you have a good weekend too!

      It's nice to care about others but you need to live your life as you please. No one be your only source of happiness. Love yourself and don't look back. I lost over 40 family members it hurts but apparently, they didn't truly love me. True love will always be there through the thick and thin. I can honestly say that HRT has made me think in ways that I never thought I would. I get myself some shoes or clothes every month because retail therapy not only helps but it is a reward to myself to show love. I have over 100 dresses. I have a whole walk-in-closet full of clothes and 67 pairs of shoes. I love who I am. I was born in 84 so not all people in the 80's think that way. As far as the name just take your time and be happy with it. I knew I loved the name Ashley. Take care and welcome!

      Congratulations Sam,   The common saying her once someone starts HRT is: “Enjoy the ride.”   Best wishes, stay positive and motivated    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      WOW @Ashley0616 it’s good that you have skills to treat traumatic injuries, as well as the ability to remain calm while managing others needs to get yourself and the boys ready to go to the hospital. Proud mama bear skills. I’m glad that he’s doing well.    Meanwhile back at the ranch, we slept in and I’m just now finishing my 3rd cup of coffee.    Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
