A well put question!
For me: Nikki all the way. No (or little) makeup = No Jemima. I want to banish every last vestige of my male self when I dress.
It's all about the glamour, really.

Hey,
This could be useful: Biomotion Lab Walker
In fact, I'm sure I first saw it from a link on this site. Apols to the admins if it's a double-post!
As the illustrations show, as with...
Yep. Wig, body-shaping 'kit', stockings and heels just don't work in this heat. I'm a little anxious, as next month I've got some rare Jemima-tima (hmn, doesn't quite work) but am dreading the...

And my other favourite - the moment the wig goes on.

Helen,
Your description is exactly how I feel ahead of a possible outing. Like you, it's a rare occurrence - in fact, I've used that very phrase - "stars align" - to sum up what needs to happen...
Wow - halfway down page 2 before I found some answers that echo my own thoughts - I never imagined that would be the case when I clicked on the thread title!
I *love* my girl wardrobe, but equally...
Yep - my biggest fear in my early dressing days (always clandestine, in a hotel) was the fire alarm going off. Nowadays, I reckon I'd be [-]man[/-] woman enough to front up. But those -5deg occasions...
Hi Jen,
Thanks for sharing - great to read.

Ha. You look fantastic.
Love the way you capture the mind playing tricks - I bet no-one noticed.

Padding Jen, padding - that's the only way I can get my rear view to approach the right kind of look. Not that I pass, and not that I want to, but the illusion of curves is something that's important...
Never mind his ears burning - if he is a CD (whether in the mind or in deed) maybe he's on here reading this now!
Jen, the way you describe it, to me it sounds like others have said - a curious,...
The +30 degree (about 90 Farenheit for those on the other side of the pond) evening here in London got me thinking about this very topic. I've basically decided I'm a winter dresser. I need the hip...
Hi Nicole,
I had to return to this thread, as when I posted earlier I was racking my brain to think of the famous person your photos (particularly bottom right) reminded me of. And just now, it...
You both look great - you're a lucky girl! Fab makeup too.
I don't really know why I'm asking this, as I currently only frequent T-friendly establishments myself, but you mention it was a LGBT...
Colours go in and out with the fashions, but in general Jen, I think you're right - I rarely see GG's in pink. There's no pink in my SOs wardrobe, for example.
However, I have to disagree with...
Lots of great advice already. For me, most important are:
- Purse/handbag. Don't be tempted to over-stuff it with a full makeup set, as it quickly becomes unwieldy. Speaking of which...

Well Nicole,
Sounds pretty promising so far.
The important questions: did your mum recognise you? And what did you wear?!

It's all about the timing for me, as I don't get the chance to dress often.
If I've not spent at least two hours in front of the mirror perfecting (in my eyes!) my makeup then clambering into a...
Good luck with the interview Becky.
Maybe I'm in cloud cuckoo land, but it would've never even crossed my mind to bring it up. Studs seem to be so common these days (I'm assuming you're not...
Yay! Glad you had a great time. You're right, the photos are a little dark (you're the middle one, right?) but it's all about getting out there.
Here's to next time.

For me, I'm not really about blending in. My best feature (so I've been told!) are my legs, so it's almost always short dresses and heels for me. I'm not trying to pass, I'm trying to stand out!
...
Good luck Nicole. As someone who has very recently taken the plunge and gone out for the first time, I must say there's nothing quite like it. As others have said - make sure you've got the camera...
Hi Helen,
I'm sure this is true in some cases, but there's probably a million-and-one other motivations for CDers seeing a psychologist: helping them deal with family/friends reactions,...
Robin,
Unlike you, I'm not out to my friends, but do live vicariously through them. I'm always complimentary about a new pair of heels or a nice outfit they're wearing - but far more so than the...
