Okay, this is my last post about my most recent photo shoot (just in time because I have another one in a few weeks). This was an emotional shoot and I dipped my stiletto into new waters which was nerve-wracking and empowering and humbling all at the same time. I was all over the map when … Continue reading They’re Not Real, and They’re Spectacular
Yesterday I was part of a... oh, I suppose a focus group might be a good description for it. I am not sure how much I CAN say, but a few weeks? months? ago Glamour Boutique sent out an email about a new television show called "The Candy Store" centering on crossdressers and t-girls and … Continue reading Power and Risk
Walking in stilettos is an act of balance, confidence, and forward momentum. And if that's not a metaphor for life then I don't know what is. I am active online in three different ways. Flickr is for photos, my website is for photos, my writings, activism, reviews, and shameless self-promotion, Twitter is for quick thoughts and … Continue reading Life is Like a Shoebox of Stilettos
Yesterday I posted some thoughts and pictures from my first photo shoot of 2021. Typically the first outfit of a shoot shows excitement and confidence... but as the shoot progresses my energy starts to deplete. Sometimes my energy is strained because of a pose or from a pair of stilettos. Some shoots require a lot … Continue reading Wilted Flowers
Most of my photo shoots are for a reason. Some of them are for En Femme, some are the annual MN T-Girls shoot, some are for reviews, and some are just for fun. It's easy to get burnt out on them, though. Don't get me wrong, I heart them but they do take a lot … Continue reading Shine, Shine, Shine
I'll tell my truth, I'll speak from my heart, I'll share my feelings to countless people online.But I am coy and vague in real life. If someone in real life brings up something I wrote about online, more than likely I will try to subtly change the subject. It's easier for me to say what … Continue reading Baring More Than My Soul
I had an interesting thought the other day. Well, I thought it was interesting. The very first trans person I was friends with (as far as I know) was someone I met when I was in my twenties. At first I knew them when they were still presenting as male to the world and we became … Continue reading Gender and Privilege
There are certain colors that are.. "off limits" for boys. Pink, that's a significant one, but there are others. Like lilac. Sure men might wear a lilac dress shirt, but it's a light purple shirt, thank you very much. But come on, it's lilac. And I heart lilac. I mean, it's a beautiful flower and … Continue reading Lingerie in Lilac
Your skin always looks fabulous. What's your routine, specifically, what's your nighttime routine? Do you use a serum? Eye cream, retinol? I'm trying to establish a night skin care routine to help keep my (rapidly aging) skin nice as I can, and would appreciate your feedback. Thanks! Thank you! Please keep in mind that my … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
