What are you wearing today?

[Linda Marie]

Today I'm just hanging out with nothing much to do that needs to be done.

I picked this outfit to blend in with my friends back there, and look a little electrifying. 

I do play them, mostly rock. You know something? I really don't know what drove my wife crazier, me being

Linda, or me trying to play guitar

Loving that frock Niamh.  Where did it come from?

 

Im in need of a couple of new summer dresses. If we get a summer that is.

Hi MIB,

 

I originally saw these beautiful 1950s style dresses in a local shop and was going to buy one just before Christmas to help a local shop keep going, but when I went in they didn't have the dress in my size, and then we went into lockdown. When I saw the distributors of these dresses were having an online sale I couldn't help myself. The dress I would have paid £60 in the shop was selling for £25. It is a lovely quality satin dress, and just feel so lucky I get to wear these openly. Can't wait to go to a summer party in it. but I do feel very sorry for the local shop. My daughter offered to by me a dress there sometime so hopefully I'll still get them some trade.

I love you dresses and would love to copy some of your style but I don't think it would look nearly as good on me.

that's the beauty or A-Line dresses, they can do wonders for me by covering up my apple shape (big fat belly), but equally can work on a smaller frame. I have 3 or 4 50s  style dresses which flare out from just below the boobs. I also wear The first couple I bought from Amazon and were very inexpensive - and if you are a Prime member they can usually be returned without question after trying them on. In the end this latest dress was the same price as the last Amazon one I got. I also wear a layered petticoat/underskirt under it such as this:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Petticoat-Underskirt-Vintage-Rockabilly-Crinoline/dp/B00YGMGGGA/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=Retro+50s+Underskirt&qid=1615654721&sr=8-4

Love the Les Paul! oh, and you look great too. lol.  A former hobby of mine was making guitars. I've made a few LPs and even wound my own humbuckers.  The guitars sound amazing in other people's hands. I can't play worth beans.

I love the outfit and it looks like some serious power in those cabinets!

I was about to take off what was left of my makeup and get ready for bed. Then I felt unbelievably cute. I'm not wearing anything I haven't showcased before, but I can't understand how happy I am feeling at this moment.

When you feel cute, you just gotta share!  It's amazing how happy we can be when our world is aligned

I just liked looking at the dresses.    I love that vintage look.  

[Elizabeth Star]

Guess who’s wearing black today. ?  I think I’m starting to see some curves.

Well if you can't, I can. Grumble. Grumble. Everybody gets nicer curves than me.

 

Hugs from Wonder Stick!

[HollyElizabeth]

@ElizabethStar I can see the curves also. Very jealous. Elizabeth, I know you've mentioned before but I don't remember when so please forgive me, but how long did you say you have been on HRT? I'm dying for my curves and I know they take longer than the 6 months I've been on HRT. I know being fat doesn't help but knowing how good your doing in the amount of time youv'e been on HRT kinda gives me an idea when I can expect to look like you. Yeah I really am jealous. I want everything right now.. lol

[Elizabeth Star]

@HollyNoelI started 12/6/19 on e tabs and spiro. This past November switched to injections, reduced the spiro and added progesterone. 

[HollyElizabeth]

Thanks. I have a bit to go before I see any real difference. Well I do have breasts, but that came because I am really fat and not because of the hormones.

 

I keep telling my endocrinologist that I want progesterone but he says that there is no proof that it helps with building a more feminine figure. He has even said it won't hurt to take it and at first he said that if I wanted to take it he would give it to me, but then acts like he doesn't want to. He just upped my spiro to twice the amount. I've heard that large amounts of spiro and cause problems. Well since he doesn't want to give it to me I've been looking into finding another doctor. If I'm not getting the care I think I need, I'm going to find a doctor that will provide me with what I think I need.

 

I'm thinking about asking to switch to injections, I hear the estrogen works better through injections.

I have brought this up with my endocrinologist but he doesn't seem to want to prescribe it for me.  Funny thing is, my previous clinic gave me progesterone but wouldn't give me E.

I still have some of the meds, and sometimes think about helping myself.  But I don't want to go against my doctor.

I've heard that it would help get me a bit more volume up there.  But, the girls are quite real, and I should be (and really am) satisfied with that.

Yup, definitely.

 

We'll get out curves too @HollyNoel. Just hang in there!

So I can assume that I wasn't the only one who had to immediately compare themselves in the mirror looking for curves? ?

[Drayse]

Spent 4+ hours in an online course today, so I didn't dress up much. One of my favourite shirts from my boy days that I'm sure I won't simply get rid of. Sadly, not as curvy as some girls but happy just the same. ?

I've got several of those. A couple are upwards of 20 years old.

Jackie I have a bunch extra if you need some curves.

It's probably my dysphoria talking. Strangers read me as a woman... but I'd still like to be more curvy. My weight always goes STRAIGHT to my belly instead of where I want it.

 

Yeah @Drayse, I spend a lot of time looking at myself in the mirror while I'm at the gym. Most days I'm OK (hey, I worked HARD to look as good as I do) but when I see the other girls... I get a little jealous.

 

Hugs!

[Maid In Bedlam]

For real curves you need Hips and sadly we just dint have the pelvis for it.

 

I use to desire to be more curvy. Ok so i have some but amd never going to be Miss body of the century.

 

I would normally consul myself by looking at female atheletes. Runners are practically straight down. Its all in the build you know.

 

Be thankful for what you have.  Its the only path to happiness.

 

On a brighter note I still have more curves than some of my born female freinds. So it is what it is.

Yes i get that to. So in reality we are curvy just not necessary in the right profile.

Had to get going early and get my bread in the oven.    
So just kitchen clothes.

I wasn't mocking, girl. I was trying to say that I was looking hard for curves I didn't have. ?

No, I get it. Today was a good day. I could see hints of cleavage when I was doing one-arm rows and it made me euphoria. I'm ALWAYS looking for hints of curves that I don't really have. I mean it's better than it was (I train pretty hard), but genetics is not my friend.

 

Hugs!

[Linda Marie]

Well this not what I'm wearing today. This is me some 15+years ago, wondering, what will I be wearing

15 years from now? Little did I know back then I would pack on 15 pounds to go with what I was wearing

15 years from then. Sigh.
