There are a few fashion rules that I think are absolutely silly such as not wearing white after Labor Day. I love this dress that I wore for my last photo shoot but it took place before Labor Day so if we follow this arbitrary rule I am still not breaking any fashion laws, lol. … Continue reading Wearing White (and flowers) After Labor Day
Depending on where you are on your journey of gender identity and your wardrobe collection, you might have a femme name. It's obvious why we have femme names. It's a little weird to wear a cute dress and spend an hour on our makeup and introducing ourselves as Frank. I mean, you do you obviously but … Continue reading Hi, My Name Is…
I've been getting a lot of emails recently from people asking what does their crossdressing mean.What they want to know is WHY they crossdress and what their crossdressing means about their sexuality. No one, especially someone like us, can be neatly or satisfactorily explained or described in a sentence or two. Human beings are complex, … Continue reading Crossdressing is an Open Door

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
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

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.
