@Niamhthat's an amazing look!

 

As promised I wore the new "jeans dress/tunic" I found at the designer consignment place yesterday in the $10 sale.  It's a Michael Kors !  My wife already stole my athleta top SMH. Her response was this is why I'm so happy you transitioned. lol. With her permission I added her to this post to show you what I hope someday to wear myself haha.

Talk with a hairstylist about "if I had hair, what would be a great short look for a wig"?  

 

Oh, that's a good idea. I can bug Roseanne! Thanks!

 

Hugs!

I'm still in my pj's. It's 5pm and there's no point in changing.

 

I've had days like that. I've also had days when the only reason I got dressed is because I needed to wash my pjs. Today is my one hoodie and a pair of boot-cut jeans. I haven't showered since Thursday and I feel gross. Definitely showering before bed tonight.

 

Hugs!

I can honestly say I've never had a PJ day haha. I have Border-Collies requiring six walks a day, the first at 4:30 in the morning. I'm so paranoid about beard growth, so its full makeup or nothing. I will admit to not bothering today, just pulling on some man-clothes and kept my hood up, ignoring the world.

Drayse, they were secondhand Ebay specials. I did have to redo the heels as they were worn out. A bit of glue and some heel rubber off ebay and they are all good. I think in the end they cost me $45 Aussie dollars.

Since I know nothing about womens fashion brands is Vince Camuto any good ?

They feel great and I loved the fact I didn't have to go through the pain of wearing them in ... LOL

What are some thoughts about nylons and pantyhose? I have a couple of short skirt outfit ideas in my head and want to wear something nicer than leggings underneath.

I would totally wear that outfit Robin. You look great. I need to jump into the bracelet game. I love yours.  I've borroed some jewelry from my wife since she loves my tastes and gets to steal mine too but none of her bracelets go over my hand/wrists.  I'm on my own there I guess.  Your Camuto boots are considered a good brand. Not an elite brand but when you find them new in reputable stores they sell for around $125-$150 American $. Once they are a year removed you can find them in the outlet stores for $70s US so $90 Aus.  Great find!  I also love the way your sleeves gather on that top.  Well done, I hope we see more of your fashion on this thread

Absolutely need them in your wardrobe.  I have basic nude and a pair of black that have a little pattern.  I wear control top to help with my belly. Side note, they help keep things in place with tucking without using gaffs. Treat them well and they last a reasonable time. They will inspire you to maintain uncaloused heels   lol

Do it Liz. I wager you would rock a little skirt and pantyhose. Maybe some nice heels to complete the image.

 

I do have one reservation. When you say short. How short do you mean? Remember the saying Short enough to be a woman but long enough to be a lady does spring to mind.

One of my wife's biggest concerns when I started getting a woman's wardrobe was "age appropriate". lol. Her spouse support group kept telling her '"Be prepared for her to make teanager clothing choices"   I guess the tendency is since we are newer to the clothing scene and have suppressed ourselves for so long we tend to go "hyperfeminine".

That's a very good question. It would be mostly with a mid-skirt that hangs about mid-calf. The one I'm wearing a few pages back. I'd like to wear it with booties. I have a pleated mini that hangs about mid-thigh. Realistically, it might be too short for me (I still have something to hid) and last, two t-shirt skirts. I also see some dresses in my future so who knows. Actually, I lied, I have a dress, hanging in my closet. I was given to me, it's a little on the classy side so I don't know when I'd wear it.

Bri we have all done it. Im no exeption to the rule. If you want/need to pass as the phrase goes (I hate that term but it seems to be used often by others) then being 50 coming on 18 is not the way forwald. Its just a matter of not sticking out and dare i say being the talk of the town for all the wrong reasons. Your wife  has been given good advise there and I would have advised the same. In an ideal world you can wear whatever you want but as we all know this is not an ideal world.

As above what i typed out to Bri. You can still wear a skirt. But be a woman and a lady about it. Look what suits you age and rock it as i know you will.

 

 

 

Im no fashion Guru just a woman that is wise to the world. I think ?

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷

      Colorado isn't exactly a Republican place, and won't become one anytime soon.  I think those folks might be better off not spending their time playing Don Quixote.    We certainly have our share of California "refugees" moving into where I live, so I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Coloradans too.  I suspect the trend over the next few years will see the blue areas getting more blue and the red areas getting more red as anybody who can relocate tries to find a place where they fit better.

      Well, at least it'll be a place some folks could choose.  Options are a good thing.

      My family would have gobbled that jar up in a minute or two.  When we do have pickled herring, its usually for Christmas.  I didn't grow up with that particular dish, but I grew up in a Greek family so I like just about any kind of fish if I can get it.  However, ocean fish and freshwater fish taste so different.  We usually have more catfish and tilapia to eat than anything else.    What I can't quite get used to is the tons of cabbage my GF insists on eating.  When you live with a Russian, there is always cabbage soup.  Always.  When I first moved in with her, breakfast was "shchi" for soup and either bread or "kasha" which is a bowl of boiled buckwheat with butter and salt.  Those dishes can be made in any number of ways, some are better than others.  In the winter, it can even be salty and sour like kraut.  Not exactly sauerkraut, but packed in tubs with vinegar and salt so it keeps partially for the winter.  But I drew the line when the cabbage soup included pieces of fried snake one day.  😆

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      Go Cleveland Guardians!  I love baseball and I loved playing it when I was younger.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?
