Where do you get your clothes from?

I get a lot of stuff from Next online (I collect from a local store/return if it doesn't fit), ASOS, Shein and Boohoo.

 

I also get a lot of stuff from Primark in the flesh, as I'm quite andro looking even in 'boy mode' and if I have a mask on most people can't tell I'm a 'biological boy' so to speak.  I get 100% of my jeans from there, tights, jackets and the odd dress/seperates.   Most of my lingerie actually comes from Ann Summers, but not the sexy stuff, just the normal wear bits they have on sale and I'm brave enough to just walk in, browse and buy.  The most dificulty I have there is getting a bra in my size (36A) but that happens online as well.

Being rather large I shop at City Chic online for outer wear.  We do have a CD focused shop Lady Bits about an hour drive away that has a selection of Large size shoes amongst other Items. Great service. I have M12 feet and need a W15 in closed toe footwear. I am (impatiently) waiting on some shoes from Asos, when I buy something I want it now. lol

I use Amazon a lot. I went a little crazy when I realized that you can order stuff and then pick it up at a drop location like Whole Foods of Kohls.

I'm usually found at the Target clearance rack. I've done most of my in person shopping at Walmart and target. Online I've bought from Amazon and Shein, but I may stop buying online, I'd rather try things on before buying.

Help!

 

Completely new to buying clothing, what kind of things would I need to start with? I was thinking of something that is female, but people couldn't tell - things like high waisted trousers, does that make sense?

 

What style of skirt / dress / top does everyone recommend?

A good idea is to look at what the other women in your age range are wearing in your area.  Unless you really want to stand out - which is not always the best idea.

I like shopping at Walmart. I rarely order things online because I want to try clothing on in a store to be sure it fits me, and that it looks flattering (I hope). I'm really into yoga pants/leggings lately and Walmart has plenty of colors and sizes to choose from, and their prices are very reasonable. And they are sooo comfortable! 

 

Otherwise I like consignment dress shops, quirky (but not overly expensive) boutiques, and even thrift stores sometimes (if something really catches my eye there). I shop all of them in-person, only ordering online if I can't find whatever it is I need locally.

 

Once upon a time, I would never have summoned up the courage to face other people when buying girly things for myself. But nowadays, whether I look very femme on a particular day or not, I'll just stroll right in to the ladies sections acting as if I own the place. And browse around and pick things out, just like the other girls do. Because I have the same right to be there.

I got some new clothes from White Stuff today. I think they do some really nice items. It can be a bit expensive sometimes, but you can usually see their stuff in other shops on sale.

I've found that once i established a style and now know my size in that style that eBay works well for me.  I have learned that searches can be narrowed to a point that the flood of possibilities doesn't lead me too far afield.

 

Hugs,

Kohls clearance racks sometimes have some nice stuff... I bought lots of shorts there back in the spring (of course they were full-priced then -- I couldn't wait)...

Amazon! I like Amazon because of its fast delivery. The variety of clothes is good enough to me.

Yes! And, at least where I live, you can have items delivered to a place like Kohls or Whole Foods in case you are worried who might notice what has arrived on your doorstep...

      @Sally Stone, I have enjoyed reading this thread immensely. There certainly are some things in it that I can relate to, particularly when you wrote that "I wasn’t a man trapped in a woman’s body." This simple statement confirmed two things for me; I am not an imposter here, and I could end up much further along the path than what I imagine now.   I very much look forward to your future posts here.   I hope that by posing this question I'm not committing you to spoil future posts, but can I ask, why you have settled on Bigender as a label? I keep changing my label and have no idea what it might be tomorrow or next week or next month!

      This whole Cass Review thing is breaking my heart. I keep imagining how it must be to be a trans kid in the UK atm. I am halfway through reading the review so that I can effectively refute it if and when people cite it here in Australia.

      One thing I took on board from a former boss who was an absolute gentleman and fluent conversationalist but a hopeless leader because he was the classic yes man to his superiors, was to take the emotion out of the equation when arguing. Don't use hyperbole. Don't exaggerate. Stick to what you know and defeat your adversary with logic. Of course, your adversary will double down and make an even bigger fool of themselves, and not even realize that they have lost the argument, nor will they realize that people are laughing at them and not with them. It also helps if you can separate them from their minions.   A conservative elderly uncle, who left school at the age of 12, swears black and blue that taking Ivermectin (sheep dip) prevents Covid because he knew someone who knew someone else who took it and despite that person being momentarily in close contact with people who had Covid, didn't come down with it. "Well, you're the one with the science degree!" I said.   A lot of people argue out of ignorance. They base their points on populism and rumor. I rarely argue, but when I do, it is in an attempt to push back. Another favorite saying that I use is "Rumors are started by haters, spread by fools and believed by idiots." I then ask, "Which two are you?" 😉

      Good morning, all!!! Cloudy today with some light rain coming. Not a day to work outside.   I will vacuum the house and the head out to our local hardware store after I get cleaned up. Time to buy a new bird feeder for the back porch.   I'm sorry the job didn't work @KymmieL! Hang in there.   It sounds like a busy time for you at work @Willow. Finding reliable people is so hard these days.   Time for another cup of coffee before I start cleaning!!   Enjoy this beautiful day we've been given.

      Nostalgia is an emotion. It is the feeling of enjoying events from the past. People with nostalgia will often look at or use old things that they were familiar with years ago. This is because people feel more connected to those past times that they enjoyed, usually because it reminds them of how long it has been since they last connected to such past times. Examples where people may have the feeling of nostalgia includes watching old TV shows, using old technology that was very enjoyable, and playing with toys that you played with as a child. These memories are usually misleading, and can make someone wish that they could be young again, even if their childhood was mediocre. Human brains often leave out boring or bad memories, which can cause incorrect feelings about their childhood.
