What are you wearing today?

? They look natural to me. Even with real ones, you need that Parka outside in the cold, it hurts less. My favorite coats are the ones that are like sleeping bags with arms and fur trim.

Well, I like the cold so wearing the parka zipped all day was more to hide them...?

You look happy! How did they feel for you? They seem to be the right size for you.

They're a nice size and fit well. They're 1000cc from a company selling on Amazon as Ivita. If I decide to go down the path of HRT I'd be happy if I ended up like that naturally.

 

I think I'm going to look into other shaping wear so have a more feminine hips and butt. In the whole "butt or boobs" line of thinking I'm more into a nice butt. (I'd love to have the kind of figure that Sir Mix-A-Lot would praise.)

OK, so you're more built like a friend of mine (she's a touch taller but until she told me I could have SWORN she was taller than 5'4"). Doesn't mean anything though, she's been practicing martial arts since junior high and could probably kill me if she wanted to. Then again, she has an intersex condition and is sporting more testosterone than I am on any given day. I've never seen anybody give her a hard time either, but she goes to a private martial arts gym so I imagine the etiquette is different.

 

Hugs!

Being trained in self-defense does help with walking with confidence, I just don't have the stamina to fight long battles cuz of my hypoglycemia and anemia leave me with a very short energy bar to work with. I don't know my hormone count cuz haven't had those tests and I'm really good at avoiding doctors. I swear if I go to the doctor and they tell me "you have a intersex condition", it would answer a lot. I don't fear the can of worms so much as the clean up cuz I really don't have the energy to be spending on the extra management. More than likely after the pandemic, I'll have to face all them tests. Didn't even get a chest x-ray.

I was thinking once my (rather sizable) income tax return arrives I might go clothes shopping, even if I only go to Goodwill.

Got some of my favorite items from Goodwill, you just might need a bit of repair work after but it's all still good.

Seriously. Goodwill, thrift stores and resale shops are a freaking goldmine. You can find some great pieces for not so much cash. It takes some looking, but looking is fun too!

There is a Goodwill Outlet within sorta reasonable driving distance.  I have found some nice things in those big bins.

So true Jackie! Several months ago I went to a Value Village and they were restocking the shoes. They added a cute pair of ‘like new’ SAS casual shoes in the size 9-10 part of the sales rack. A woman standing closer than me picked them up, tried them on, and looked at me and said, “I’d buy them if they were blue tagged” and put them back. Blue was the 50%off color that day. After she walked away I tried them on and they fit perfectly. I paid $7.50 for them and it was seniors discount Tuesday so I got 30% off.

 

Later that week I went to see if I could buy another pair online figuring I could get a pair for $40-50. Nope, at the time they were priced at $147.50. They are by far the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn male or female.

@Niamh

? Love them killer deals but it is sad when you can't repeat cuz of the original killer prices. Those do look very nice and I like the maroon dark red color. They also have a reasonable height and have a good heel. Good shoes may be expensive but since you need your feet well kept, some things are worth the extra money.

80% of my wardrobe is thrift store finds.  I live in a pretty affluent area so thrift stores are always stocked with nice things here.  Sunday I'm going to look for some more yoga pants, I need to size down! I should only have to spend about $5 each so in theory a $20 bill would be my cost for the day. Problem is, I will probably fill a shopping cart for $100 lol.  Yes, I have a problem.

SAS are very comfortable!   That was a fantastic bargain. 

 

I have a pair of Chanel slip on flats that were given to me by an aunt.  They are divine to wear.  I know they were four figure shoes to buy new.  Are they worth that?  No but it shows what a hand made shoe can be.  Cheap shoes may look nice but they don't last.  I'm into having things for the long run.  

 

The majority of my clothes are second hand.  Way cheaper and lots of life left!  Win-Win!

I just ordered a pair of inexpensive hip-and-butt shaping panties and some cheap yoga pants that are one-day shipping so I'll give them a go tomorrow. From what I'm seeing there's a price floor for decent quality shapewear and breast forms and right now I'm only able to touch the very bottom. For example, I'd love to see how a larger chest would look on me, but couldn't afford it.

 

I live in the Indiana suburbs of Louisville, Kentucky and we're pretty solidly middle class area and the Goodwill store reflects that. Sometimes there's some amazing deals, but it's slim pickings for nice things other times.

Hara you look fine and the boobs are just right. Yeah it was cold here today so deff wear a coat.

I got out and found a few tops and a pair of jeans today so it was a productive day.

Goodwill is one place I go to all the time.You never know what you will find there. The clothes selection is awesome you just  have to comb thru a  lot to find the jems.

Going to hit some pawn shops tomorrow and find a decent digital camera that doesn't wash everything out like my phone cam.

To top it all off the pics I took tonight I deleted the whole group accidentally.

Not a good night at all but I am laughing at myself .

Thanks Vanessa I will wait until Jackie comments and see what can be done.

Its not a big deal really I just messed up.

I keep way too many pics stored on my phone and was cleaning it out and deleted my new pics like a bozo.

I like that picture @Teri Anne you look adorable.  Nice look @Niamh, I'm enjoying getting dressed up for my zoom meeting.  Therapy is another safe place I like to look nice for.

 

I've been having great luck mixing Goodwill with a little Walmart, H&M, and ebay.  All pretty cheap.  Retail for the staples and thrift shops for the unique pieces.

 

I actually dug out some man clothes today, but only because I'm wet sanding and polishing a car, and need some junk I can throw away after wearing.  I guess I'll save some of that stuff for disposable clothing. ?

After 42 years, I don't think I'm ready to give up the easy sizing on men's pants. And I've thought for years that the "female version of me" would wear men's jeans for the same reason. (And I've met plenty of women who do that.)

Ask a mod, we'll take care of any edits you like.

 

Jealous though. I wish my hips looked like that. I'm basically Wonder Stick.

Ew, really? I junked all my man pants because my very, very delicate skin could not deal with the heavier, coarser fabric anymore. They just feel like wearing a mail sack.

I second the ew. Mail sack has got to be the most accurate description yet.

I donated every piece of male clothing I had except a few hoodies and some t-shirts from places I've been. The tshirts I sewed up for a more hourglass shape and a dart here or there.  They are still to big but at least they are feminine.

 

Today I really felt the need to "rock it". I've been having some dysphoria lately so out came the skirt with a few pleats in the back, tights, pumps and a ribbed top that almost feels like a really light sweater. It flairs nicely and makes me feel like I have some hips. lol If I have to work on the weekends I might as well look good doing it ;) 

Everything here except shoes/tights were thrift shops including the jewelry.  Minus shoes, this whole outfit was probably $18-$20. The shoes were clearance rack DSW.  They are Clarkes so they're very comfy.  I think they were about $30.  I have to say, I'm very lucky to live in such an accepting area and running my own business means I can present the way I want.  I really feel for those of you who can't.

I felt like dressing up today. I also put on a bra after my first round of pictures made it PAINFULLY obvious I wasn't wearing one.

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."
