You look radiant!

[Jackie C.]

Oh sure, but if *I* try to show off my new surgery...

 

Kidding obviously. You look great Bri! I'm really happy for you.

 

Hugs!

I have a friends 50th Bday party happening tonight and plan on just doing a cameo for a little bit. I'm allowed to take my binder off for an hour or so a day so plan on wearing this summer halter dress and pulling the binder off for the party.  Gotta say- I feel like ? in this dress with real (implanted) boobs!  

[Ivy]

Nice.     Hope the healing goes smoothly.   

[Jackie C.]

You look fantastic @Bri2020 and so happy! Knock 'em dead!

 

Hugs!

[Teri Anne]

Give us a full report on the party and the reactions Bri.

I found this vest hiding in the back of my closet. It was an on and off project for several years and took on a few different forms before I settled on this design. Being one of my last longer-term projects, every ring (somewhere around 10k of them) was bent, cut and assembled by hand. The downside is the weight. Made entirely of copper and steel it weighs over 16 lbs.  What I find interesting is that I finished it pre-transition but it fits and looks better on me now than it did back then. Almost like it was subconsciously intentional.

That's so cool!  I'm ready to rock a chainmail bra now .

I ended up changing my dress to one of my Tommy Bahama sleeveless knee length dresses. It hid my breast compression band I have to wear better.  I was going to take it off for the party but I was too uncomfortable when I did.  The dress was basically a body con dress so showed off the girls well.  I got a lot of compliments (and jealousy from the over 40 crowd of how perky they are) I only stayed an hour before getting tired but according to my partner, my boobs were all the talk of the town after I left (in a positive way) lol.  I think I inspired a lot of discussion on "getting some tune ups" from the middle aged women haha.

[Teri Anne]

How awesome was that !!!

[Jackie C.]

@Bri2020, that is freaking awesome. All anybody says about me is about how much weight I lost. 

 

Liz, that vest is awesome and obviously styled for a woman. It's practically a racer back. Your subconscious did you a favor.

 

Hugs!

I have made quite a few over the years but haven’t made one for myself yet.

@Elizabeth Star That chainmail vest is a work of art, girl you have way more patience than I do and I love building race cars.

[Elizabeth Star]

Thanks @Billie75B  

[Elizabeth Star]

Nothing spectacular with my outfit today. Just a new T-shirt. Much to my surprise I also had to buy a larger bra. I thought for sure my growth was at an end with a B cup, apparently not now that I’m in a C. I haven’t even been on HRT for two years so it’ll be interesting to see where it stops. 
 

 

[Jackie C.]

There's always that ONE girl who goes away for summer vacation and comes back with K cups...

 

Then there's the rest of us. Both happy for and extremely jealous of you Liz!

 

Hugs!

[Teri Anne]

Liz they look great as do you.

Growth hit me is spurts  as far as boob size.

The chain mail is really cool.

[Maddee]

@Elizabeth Star

 

Liz you look great.

Ditto chainmail compliments.  Interesting craft.

 

Hi I'm another one of these people.

 

  Don't ask me about guitars cuz you probably know more than I do about them.

You look F#($*#ing amazing though!   I had to spend $8k to look that good. haha

It's a gorgeous guitar! I wanted to say a Gibson 335 semi-hollow body like BB King use to play but the controls and triple pickups don't match that.  I bet it sounds sweet and jazzy.  I don't play for crap but I love making guitars.  This was my last attempt at making a 335. It is Claro Walnut with a sycamore fingerboard and mahogany neck. I wound the humbuckers myself.

Wow Bri!

You are talented and crafty.

Pretty too

I like your glasses.

 

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

I ditched my shorts, and put jeans on for the grocery store today.

 

As you were...
