I had an interesting and fun day out yesterday.
The weather was wonderful in Connecticut and since I am home alone for the week I decided to finally go out to the mall during daylight hours. I've gone at night before but until yesterday I did not have the courage. In fact up until leaving work I really wasn't sure if I was going to do so. However I got inspiration as I was headed home.
On the way home I stopped at a local Kmart to pickup some new clip-on earrings. As I walked down one aisle I spotted, from behind an very tall well dressed woman. Me being me I was immediately looking at her long legs, high heels and skirt. Then as I got closer I panned my view up and she had very broad shoulders. After watching her for a short time I realized she was like me, a crossdresser. She was very well dressed with very well done makeup. She did walk around a bit nervously. I decided not to make her nervous so I just left after my quick observation. Nevertheless seeing someone else out ended any thoughts of me not going out in the daylight. So I say thank you to this person.
I got home, ironed my clothes, got dressed and put on my makeup and wig. I've gotten pretty good at makeup now. I've learned contouring which has given me a very passable look. I chose to wear denim leggings, a sky blue fitted top and some black flats. I put my hair up in a pony tail. When I looked in the mirror I just smiled. I drove to a nearby mall and walked in with confidence. Nobody that I noticed batted an eye. I browsed stores for quite some time. By the end I needed to use a restroom and used the closest ladies room. As I left the ladies room a young sales associate walked in, acknowledged me with a nod and a smile. That topped off the nice afternoon. I browsed a bit more and spotted some nice tops that I'm going to buy today or tomorrow.
I am looking forward to Saturday when I head out for most of the day.
