I think it's probably safe to say that a t-girl loves clothes. I have a fascination with certain styles and fabrics. I love a really cute peplum dress, I love leather, I love pleated skirts...oh, I could go on. I think we have a certain emotional connection with many of the items that hang in … Continue reading The Allure of Velvet

Getting to Know You, Getting to Know All About You
I have hosted parties and organized gatherings in my male life. I am not a particularly a social person, so for occasions like these I tend to details such as making sure there is enough food and cleaning up. I try to busy myself and keep moving. I try to stay out of the way. … Continue reading Getting to Know You, Getting to Know All About You

What is Crossdressing?
I think it's easy to overthink who we are and why we like what we like. Why do I like heels? Why do I wear panties?

Spring Photo Shoot: Mesh Dress

Shannonlee and I did some pictures against a white backdrop for the review photos, but the … Continue reading Spring Photo Shoot: Mesh Dress
#girlslikeus
There is a hashtag that a girl like us uses on social media. The tag, conveniently enough, is #girlslikeus. This tag is used to bring attention to our community for the purpose of relatable problems, whether it's trivial such as getting frustrated that Target doesn't normally carry heels in sizes larger that an 11, … Continue reading #girlslikeus
