Hi Diane, I just love the coral color on the jacket and the boots! ❤️

During the winter, I love my sweater dresses. I'm mot currently out at work or going to my office due to working from home still during the pandemic. But that's happening soon! I did recently buy a skirt suit that I'd hoped to wear to the office when we do go back, but had to return because the fit was off on the jacket.

 

Love,

~Audrey.

My office is actually a farm so jeans are normal.  Once a week I get to go to the market so I try to dress decently then.

 

Hugs,

Yeah, my go-to depends on what I'm doing that day. If I'm going out or I want to feel pretty it's different than if I plan on bumming around the house all day or moving stuff. Usually I'm aiming for "comfortable" and it's jeans, a t-shirt and either my singular hoodie or an oversized flannel shirt over that. If the flannel isn't cutting it, there will be a sweatshirt or a sweater. Hopefully my fox sweater, it's easily my favorite but it's complicated to wash so I don't wear it as much as I otherwise might.

 

Hugs!

When I was working I usually wore a pantsuit if I had meetings scheduled, or slacks and a blouse with or without a blazer.  I rarely wore skirts or dresses, but did a few times.  One reason was that I couldn't walk well in heels due to a foot condition.  Wearing flats looked nicer with pants.

Well, I don't actually present as a woman when I'm at the office, but I have always worn feminine office attire as my go to outfit when I am presenting as a woman.  Being a girly-girl, I have always loved skirts or dresses and high-heels.  You might think those wardrobe articles aren't compatible with blending in, but I have learned that feminine office attire can be just the ticket for satisfying my inner woman and blending in.  It is never unusual to see women shopping or eating out while wearing office attire.  Perhaps, they are on their lunch break, or they are meeting friends for dinner after work, or they are on their way home from work.  In any case, wearing office attire while out and about is a logical and common occurrence for many women.  So, I wear office attire a lot, because it gives me the perfect alibi for wearing a dress or skirt and high-heels.  Another benefit for wearing feminine office attire is that it can often be quite sexy without being inappropriate.  What's not to love?

Before coming out, my wardrobe was limited to what I wore to the club I go to. Most of those clothes were sexy or unusual, including Lolita outfits, short skirts, and flashy dresses. Now that I dress every day for work I have had to completely rebuild my wardrobe, so this is still a work in progress. Mostly, I go for a skirt and blouse. Sometimes, just slacks and a nice sweater.

I think it's always a work in progress. Even when you have enough clothes to get you through a couple of weeks, you still buy bits and pieces here and there when you find something cute in your size.

 

You're off to a good start though! You look great!

 

Hugs!

All great looks ladies!  I basically work as a receptionist at my massage clinic so it's not an "office" setting. I have a lot of freedom because of the culture of the place and the fact that I make the rules ;)

 

Mostly I wear slacks and a nice casual top but branch out to dresses and skirts every once in a while.  Most of my looks are on the "what are you wearing today" thread.

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?

      Well yesterday didn't work like I wanted to. I met a guy and started talking and he was wanting to be in a relationship. I asked my kids on how they thought of me dating a man and they said gross and said no. I guess it's time to look for women. I think that is going to be harder. Oh well I guess.

      This topic reminds me of the lyrics to the Beatles song, "A Little Help From My Friends."   "What do you see when you turn out the lights?"   "I can't tell you but I know it's mine."   Carolyn Marie

      @Ivy have you read the actual document?   Has anyone else out there read it?
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I am reading the Project 2025 document https://www.project2025.org/policy/   This will take some time.  I read the forward and I want to read it again later.   I read some criticism of it outside here and I will be looking for it in the light of what has been posted here and there.  Some of the criticism is bosh.   @MaeBe have you read the actual document?

      No problem!

      Old topic, but I gotta say my favorites are: "Stop hitting on minors" (doesn't work if you're holder tho) and "Sure as [squid] not you"
    • Carolyn Marie
      Abigail, I think we will just leave the other posts where they are, and the discussion can start anew here.  It is possible to do what you ask, but would disrupt the flow of the discussion in the other thread, and would require more work than it's worth.   Carolyn Marie

      I am in too good a mood to earn my certificate today. I am sure something will happen that will put me on the path to earning it.

      It's likely most cis-women consider a fitting unnecessary "because they know what  they wear" and get used to the wrong size.  The instructions for what your size is are simple and why go to any further effort?  You measure your bandsize and you measure your max and subtract the two to get the needed info for the cup size.  Then you buy the same size for years until it hurts or something.

      Congratulations Lorelei! Yes, it is a powerful feeling to have the documents that say "you are you".
