Yeah it's a challenge to find the right dress, not warm enough here for it yet but happy with this one.  I am not sure how I feel about how low cut the front goes, will just have to be mindful I guess. Face tech was right, Nordstrom rack is hit and miss. Usually I don't even remember to take shots when I head out because I am still trying to  engineer my fix up time in less than an hour from start to finish.  Currently on a dress and leggings/stockings binge.

I've got a black, sleeveless blouse with a Peter Pan collar. I put it with a grey, pink, and yellow pleated tartan skirt with a pair of chunky Mary Janes. Hope you guys have a great day!

really cute, don't worry about the neckline- it looks great and appropriate for the dress style. I'd be more worried about how I get out of my car and or sitting without letting too much show down below. haha. Great summer evening dress

Classy!

IDK maybe I should consider getting my first pair of nice heels, even though I will be 9 feet tall. I was trying on sandals and decided my feet aren't so cute. Maybe some toenail polish will help.

I got a few new outfit over the weekend. Summer's coming so I thought I start on my wardrobe for hot weather.

 

I'm not overly excited about profanity on my top but it is what it is. The quality of the skirt is surprising considering it came from Hot Topic.

I really like this top. I think it would look really good with the right pair of jeans. I feel this skirt would go better with the other top.

And believe it or not I also I got a pink skirt too.

I'm really starting to these Cowcow dresses. They takes weeks to get once you order them but so worth the wait to me. Can you believe it? I'm not wearing a ton of black, not even my shoes. Maybe it's just a phase?

@Elizabeth StarIn your first post, I like the first top with the second skirt. That's so you. The skirts are all definitely cute. I'm trying to work up the courage to wear one that short. And no, I don't believe you really bought a pink skirt 😁. And I LOVE the dress!

A gorgeous pair of shoes and a pedicure will mask most foot cuteness issues. As for height, I'm 5' 10 and I don't mind wearing up to a 3" heel for most occasions. I figure I'm already taller than most women and people are going to see me no matter what so why not wear what you love.  4"-5" heels are for very special occasions when I expect to be sitting mostly. These new block heels are about 4" and I can manage them but my feet will be sore by the end of the night. 

My everyday heel height is usually less than 3" (today being an exception)

Today's outfit minus the gladiator style cork wedges. They had to come off having been on for 12 hours straight today.  I ended up going out with one of the ladies I had been occasionally seeing. (she's the last one standing of the 4). We live close together so since it was a pretty night out I invited her to a happy hour/light dinner by the lake.  Went pretty well. Basically we are both trying to figure out whether there might be more than friendship in the future I think.

Anyways, the top and pants were both from the $5 sidewalk sale last week. The top is pretty shear but I have a bralette that is almost the same shad of burnt orange so you can't even tell. The jeans have a nice flair at the ankles that doesn'tn shown upnwelln in this pic.

Tonight was the first time I went on stage with my body really showing.  I started with a turtleneck on, but it got too hot, so off it went, and I just leaned into it and gave my best girl on guitar performance.  My fear just dropped away and I had such a great time.  Nothing but good vibes!  This is going to be so much fun moving forward.  My band is doing really well, and nobody has a problem with my super power.  It feels like all my dreams are coming true.  I still breakdown and cry sometimes, but it's all worth it.

Thanks! I earned $233 for Pride last night in Ferndale. Absolutely had a good time and did not fall out of my top so much as once. Sweat right through it dancing though.

 

Hugs!

Apologies for posting lots of pics, but had a few IT problems recently. I retired from work in February, and my wife and I started a major refurbishment of our kitchen/utility rooms. Part of this involved stripping plaster from old walls, and it seems that plaster dust and IT kit are not compatible. My main PC as well as 2 other devices which rely on cooling of processor units died a death. I know I can reach this site using my phone, but I find it's not an easy site to use from such a small screen.

 

So here are some the pics I probably would have posted here. Including me on a Niamh day but in a boiler suit for stripping walls/removing rubbish as well as one of my favourite days out this year with my daughter who took me out for a meal, karaoke and clubbing in the West End of London for my birthday in April.

I've spent a while catching up on whose been wearing what and there are many fabulous photos of gorgeous people. 

 

I'm still not using a new PC - I've dug out and got one of my old ones working again, but when I've refurbished our study I'll get a new superduper PC :)

I'm heading out to look into my additional career of real estate. I'm interviewing a brokerage today. 

All the clothing pieces here were consignment finds for a total of only $25

The shoes were Poshmark find at another $25.  So for $50 I have a complete professional work outfit. I love thrifting/consignment!

That's a cute outfit. Those colors are flattering on you.

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.
    • Heather Shay
      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.

      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.
