I used to think the only way I would be able to leave my home en femme was if I passed. Knowing I would never pass (not that there is such a thing) I thought if I blended in I would be ready to brave the world. I see blending as a... hm, survival method, … Continue reading Silver and Bold

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink
I don't pay much attention to fashion. I mean, I look at every dress I see and if I think it's cute, I add it to my wardrobe. But I don't wear something because it's in style or trendy. I might wear something that IS in style or trendy, but not BECAUSE it is. If … Continue reading On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

I found a new appreciation for layering and how contouring could downplay some of my more masculine facial features. When I started to go out of the house, I did my best to blend in instead of … Continue reading From Concealing to Revealing
Happy National Underwear Day!
Apparently today is National Underwear Day, so, uh, happy National Underwear Day for those who celebrate. On one hand, I look at clothes as fabric that cover our bodies and there's really no logical reason to genderize them in any way. On the other hand.... OMG, is there anything more feminine than panties? I'd be … Continue reading Happy National Underwear Day!
