I looked good on Saturday. And I think it's okay to say we look good when we do. For some reason it's more... ah, acceptable to point out our flaws and shortcomings (especially for a girl like us) but I think if we feel good, if we think we look good, then we should say … Continue reading It’s Not Okay

Dining out with the T-Girls!
Last night was the monthly event for the MN T-Girls. Because of the pandemic, we haven't been out to dinner for quite a while so I felt it was time to return to the Wilde Cafe and Spirits in Minneapolis. It's been a favorite of ours for years so it was fun to go back. … Continue reading Dining out with the T-Girls!

Skirting Around
I rarely wear skirts. Because of this, my confidence is about zero when it comes to creating an outfit based around one. In some ways I feel that skirts and a cute top are a little... well, maybe casual isn't the right word, but I tend to wear dresses that stand out pretty much anywhere. I … Continue reading Skirting Around
The Alluring Power of Fishnets
I was asked to review a pair of stockings from We Love Colors recently. I love doing reviews and it's a fun reason to arrange for a photo shoot. I spent some time picking out which stockings I wanted to review and of course, I HAD to pick fishnets. 🙂 I don't wear fishnet stockings … Continue reading The Alluring Power of Fishnets

The Complicated Legacy of Crossdressing
It's amazing how many words are available for girls like us. But it can be overwhelming when it comes to choosing how to identify. Some crossdressers may feel that all of THIS is more about clothes, but they may not feel ready to identify as transgender... yet. What is the difference between non-binary and being … Continue reading The Complicated Legacy of Crossdressing
Ask Hannah!
Do you read stories from sites like Fictionmania? I love it! I so admire that you can go out dressed like you do. Have you ever done hormones or thought of doing this? Fictionmania is a website which features fictional stories focusing on the transgender community. I don't read t-girl fiction anymore even though I really … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
Stay Positive
This side of us is beautiful. This side of us is a refuge from the rest of the world sometimes. At least it is for me. When my boy life is getting stressful there's nothing like scheduling a makeover, wearing a pretty dress, and spending the day wandering around a mall or a museum or … Continue reading Stay Positive
Glitter and Doom
I feel as if my anxiety is really high lately. Work has been stressful, a family member is in the hospital, and, well, the whole pandemic. Please know that I am not trivializing anything. It's hard to cope and get through life (and through the day) when it feels like everywhere you turn there's something … Continue reading Glitter and Doom
