We know that "society" will never "accept" us. We can't wait for "them" to let us know that crossdressing or wanting to wear a dress or lipstick or whatever we have tucked away in our dresser drawers or hidden in our closets is okay. Acceptance of who we are comes from ourselves. Some of us … Continue reading Acceptance and Embracing

Back in Yellow
Once I stepped out of the house for the first time and watched the sunrise on a summer morning I felt that I had conquered something impossible. Hannah was real, I was real, we were living in the real world. I felt invincible, I felt powerful, I felt fearless. I began to think of all … Continue reading Back in Yellow

MN T-Girls and T-Grilling
This past weekend the MN T-Girls had our monthly social event. A typical summer always has a patio party but I think it's safe to say that this summer has been anything but typical. The group took a few months off earlier this year but we started to meet a few months ago and have … Continue reading MN T-Girls and T-Grilling
Spoonbridge and Cherry Dress
When I tell people I live in Minnesota, I am asked one of three things: Have you ever met Prince? (no) Isn't it cold there? (during winter yes) Isn't that where they have that cherry sculpture? (yes) There are few things in my state that are more iconic than 'Spoonbridge and Cherry' by Claes Oldenburg … Continue reading Spoonbridge and Cherry Dress
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
Blue Monday
This was one of those dresses that caught my eye and I wasn't really sure why I liked it. I don't have a lot of blue dresses so I thought it would be fun to add to my wardrobe and for my August photo shoot. I don't know why I was so drawn to it … Continue reading Blue Monday
Butterflies
The monarch butterfly can be found around milkweed plants, if you wanted to find one. As beautiful as we are, girls like us are not like butterflies. What I mean is that there is not a specific place to find us. One of the most common questions I am asked is where does someone go … Continue reading Butterflies
August Photo Shoot Preview!
This past weekend Shannonlee did a photo shoot in the beautiful Sculpture Garden in Minneapolis. I have always wanted to do a shoot there and thankfully the weather cooperated, but not much else did 🙂 Shannonlee's camera was being silly so most of the pictures we took were on an iPhone. My allergies decided to … Continue reading August Photo Shoot Preview!
Saturday in the Garden
Yesterday was a gorgeous, hot summer day. Not the best type of day to wear pads, forms, stockings, a wig, a gaff, and foundation, but this girl is happy to make some sacrifices to look cute. And I'm glad I wasn't the only one since yesterday was the monthly MN T-Girl outing. In these days … Continue reading Saturday in the Garden
