  This top's plunging neckline was too much for me given no cleavage without a lot of manipulation so my wife sewed a snap up higher on it to make it less plunge-y

I don't know that you should worry too much about that. Many women have very little cleavage. I don't think I could be accused of having much cleavage, but this is one of my favourite dresses now (posted a week or so back). Yes I do have some B cup silicon boobs in my bra, but there was no manipulation going on as far a cleavage was concerned.

It still looks lovely. Whatever you're doing is working for you girl!

 

Hugs!

You'd think that might bother me, but it doesn't as much as you might think. ?

Nice dress, Niamh. You look very pretty in it. I wish I knew what I was doing picking out dresses or I'd have one by now.

It's very much trial and error. I know many buy from charity/thrift stores so they don't waste too much money while they find what works for them. As I belong to Amazon prime (I use most of the free services such as the free Video, Music and Kindle books), you can also buy clothes with a free no questions asked returns policy (I assume the same applies in other countries with Prime). That way, I have bought many clothes online and returned whatever didn't fit or didn't look right and not wasted any money. But I still buy at the budget end. That 50s style dress only cost me £23 (about $32). I've never spent more than £35 on a single fashion item so far in the 18 months that I've been openly buying womens clothes. 

 

Having said that - I probably have a budget of around £250 a month on clothes, shoes and makeup. My wife just assumes anything coming to the door these days is for me.

That's pretty much how I've always dressed since the 1990s...lol

Liz I love the look and dress that way a lot.

I have Chucks in the same color as well as blue and red ones too.

When I first started exploring my trans-ness I thought I had to wear dresses  and skirts to present as feminine so I went thru a hyper feminine stage.

I soon learned by observing cis women  that pants and or jeans were actually OK and I could present in a casual way and still be feminine.

I wear skirts and dresses almost exclusively.  But it's just what I prefer.  I know that most women I see out and about, go with pants and a top of some sort.  And I will wear jeans or similar for jobs where the skirts would be less practical, like getting firewood.  I have my hoodies for cool weather.  Since I'm retired I don't have to consider a job.

I'm not out to prove anything, I just feel freer that way.  My skirts/dresses are not anything fancy, and I don't use makeup (at least so far) and have no desire for it.  Maybe I'm a throwback to another time or something.

My female role models are all "tom boy" types. I don't think I've ever seen my mother wear a dress or a skirt outside of photographs and I think the last time my sister wore one was her wedding. (And, thanks to King Oedipus that's the kind of woman I find attractive.)

I'm not saying wearing skirts or dresses are a bad thing please don't take what I said the wrong way.

Wear whatever you prefer to wear and what makes you feel pretty there is nothing wrong with that at all.

I am all for wearing whatever you want and if you don't use make up thats OK too its your choice.

I wear skirts occasionally if I am going to a special event or something.

Jandi I am retired too and have been for 10 years so like you I have nothing to prove as well.

Working class, even a little grunge. It looks good on you. Much of my boy outfits look a lot similar, and I imagine as my girl wardrobe expands I'll be incorporating some of the same aesthetic.

Funny thing about aesthetic. When I first began exploring my gender I assumed I'd be stereotypically "girly", but clothing opportunities only permitted jeans and sleeve shirts. Several purges and retocks later, and now that I've given myself permission to withhold restraint, I thought I'd go for a more muscle girl/body builder aesthetic. Instead I find that I'm moving in an athletic business lady direction. It's a bit puzzling, but I'll just keep playing this by ear and see where it goes.

Thinking back this out seemed to work pretty well. I got called ma'am a lot when I wore it earlier on in transition. Even before my girls made themselves known. Now if my hair would just grow back a little faster.

 A girlfriend dropped this hand me down sleeveless jumper off for me.  I probably never would have bought it because jumpers just haven't been on my radar but I really like it.  Even has pockets! I'm not a sleeveless person because I'm working on removing shoulder tattoos so I'm pretty self conscious about them. But with a cardigan it works.   The only issue I have is being on spiro, I'm a regular visitor to the girls room and 4 buttons, a zipper AND a belt is a lot to undo when you really have to go.  lol

I'm so lucky to have friends that want to outfit me ;)

That looks good on you @Bri2020! The only thing I'd change is to make the belt an accent color instead of just letting it blend in.

 

Hugs!

I like that idea. It's sewn in in the back. I might look at it though and see if I can unstitch it without damaging the fabric

      Thanks, @VickySGVfor some truth. Hatred may speak loudly in a political agenda, but there is always love, there is always love.

      Doesn't this belong over in the Humor Topic??  Grim humor I admit, but it has the dark humor picture of the folks protesting the Sacramento Sanctuary Laws.  If the world is going to end next week why are these people so concerned about someone staying fertile and able to have children??   Crazy.
    • VickySGV
      Once again the opposition is telling scary, unfounded  baloney about what IS being done to any Trans Person.  The truth about the very little and very cautious treatments just will not sink into them because it will sink them.  They bully their own Cis children unmercifully to fit into their molds, and that is gruesome in itself. I am happy to say I know that Trans children and all Trans folks in the area have access to wonderful care based on what some of my former State colleagues who have Trans family members and fellow employees there in Sacramento keep telling me about.

      good for you dear. my guess is soreness is good sign things are going on there. water them n hope. smiles   actually was speaking to someone other day n they said the growth leveled off after a few years  which coincided with a few years of very high stress..n then when the high stress resolved, she grew another cup size..
    • missyjo
      darling I completely agree. but it will need road testing I'd think.    and I recently asked a surgeon about an idea I had for easier recovery...do a zero depth 1st..recover then add a canal..he said NO. this surgery is hard enough on body to recover, do not do it any more than needed. also said penile inversion usually is sufficient n includes a few centimeters of perineum tissue anyway..so keep the perineum pull through as a reserve technique in case there is a problem with theb penile inversion.    hugs to any who want them

      I can't tell from the article if being trans was part of the motivation for the crime, or whether it was simply incidental to it. Clearly at least one of the perpetrators was known to the victim, which seems to continue the pattern that the most dangerous people for us are often people we know.  😒
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Beans, beans, the musical fruit...   But beans and rice make a complete protein, and a pretty cheap base for any sort of meal. Since two of my partners are Hispanic and one is Asian, we use a lot of rice. Plenty of beans too, although 90% of the time they are on the form of black-eyed peas. That crop grows really well in the South no matter how hot and dry it gets.  And the Native American trio of corn, beans, and squash is a classic.  Actually, those ingredients tend to show clearly whether kids were raised with a healthy diet or not. Kids raised eating those foods luke them. Kids raised without experiencing those foods tend to reject them immediately. Rather strange.

      I feel a little better about going outside. I got my EpiPen just in case of an emergency. Today was rough started euphoric and then depression hit real hard and I don't even know what it was about. It just happened. I want to see a bright future but it turns dim because of something. I was disappointed on how much supplemental insurance was more than regular health insurance. I enjoy seeing other successful people making it as a couple through everything in fact I cheer them on but it just makes me think if I will find anyone. I barely dated anyone when I was physically fit male and then it seems the older I get it gets harder. Not to mention everyone down here leaves as soon as they find out I'm trans. It's only going to get more difficult because of borderline personality disorder. It's dang near seems impossible that people would even put up with that. After all that I'm still trying to be positive and hope for the best but I always expect the worst and that has always been the case. Pushing 40 and I haven't even experienced true love.

      Good afternoon everyone,    I’ve been working in the shop and preparing a few training props for shipping. So my responses and activity here has been very slow. I’m doing well just real tired.    Hugs,    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      That’s good news, listen to your doctors and your body. You may be asked to start a daily exercise routine and walking around the neighborhood. The worst thing you can do is become sedentary and laying around.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
