    Does anyone go out Semi-Femme?

    Today I went shopping but I was only partially dressed. I wore lip gloss, oversize sunglasses, a gold bangle, fem jeans and my black canvas shoes with a one inch heel. But I also wore a bra and my forms under a black t shirt. I got a few strange looks but other wise I didn't have any problems. It felt really good to dress some where in between. I wonder, has anyone else done this, and do you prefer it to being fully dressed.

    I often go out, say 50/50. Today I did have nail polish on, but I think that the people I normally deal with are used to my way of dress. It has gotten to the point where I am included in the small talk on the bus (commuter bus with mostly single older women). Today the grocery clerk mentioned the color of my nails saying it matched my ear rings.

    Semi-fem for me.

    Although I have gone out totally enfemme, I find that I am less comfortable than when I dress in feminine clothing but without a wig and concealing make up. I am so uncomfortable when I have to respond and talk to others as a women that I just drop the masquerade and dress trying to fool no one.

    My prefer the casual look; sandals with capris or shorts, a soft colorful top that is an oversized t-shirt with a female collar and sleeves or a babydoll type top. My accessories include a necklace, hoop or drop earings and a pale lip gloss. In place of the wig, I wear a scarf or short brimmmed cap or hat.
    I must include that I never go out in this mode without a closely shaved face and perhaps light powder or base.

    Yep, most always. Nice blouse, jeans, nails long and polished, fancy earrings, moman's watch, 4 rings, bracelet, mascara and eye shadow is how I went food shopping today.

    Quite often

    Usually, my sneakers are womens styles, I usually wear spandex leggings with a feminine t-shirt with cap sleeves and either deep v-neck or scoop neckline. I also like short low rise Nike athletic shorts which I wear almost thru the summer, they make my legs feel sexy. I get some stares but I am so use to these styles that it doesn't bother me at all.

    I am trying to wear skirts publicly but have not gotten the nerve to go out in busy public places yet, but I do walk in the park in the early morning. Usually all the above is without Wig and makeup. Loving it.

    I like to go out with my fem low rise jeans, my small forms and bra and a baggy fem shirt to cover them. Quite often I will paint my nails a light pink and have a natural colored lipstick on. The only time that I have had any comments was when I had on bright red nail polish and that was from a store clerk who just asked Why? I told him that it was not a good idea to pass out at parties.

    I am always dressed partially en femme around the house: breast forms , sandals, nail polish. My ocassional problem is that I'm so used to it. I go out and forget what I have on. I'll be driving home and realise I was totally out there and nobody blinked!

    I seem to find it easiest to go out semi-femme, which I think of as unisex. Often i will wear women's pants, T-shirt top, (which may be either men's or women's), generally men's shoes, or women's that look like men's, clear nail polish, a little make-up to conceal any 5 o'clock shadow under the nose, a watch which is a just large enough women's watch to pass, plain ring or two rings, underwear optional as to gender, while a fairly plain baseball cap seems unisex enough too.
    This suits me in many ways, including the practical one that I have these days more women's clothes than men's, so women's clothes are usually conveniently at hand.

    Going out partially femme is the way I feel the most comfortable. I've never gone out fully dressed trying to pass and I really don't have the desire to. I wear girls jeans and shorts, girls sweaters and T shirts, jewelry, lip gloss and perfume. I'm also smooth shaven and have long fingernails. I get a few stares but also a lot of compliments from women.

    YUP. As I've said in many other posts, I'm skirted most of the time. Purse on the shoulder and I'm ready to go shopping.

    I tried it once, but...

    Since I was only wearing a nice frilly blouse, the policeman sent me home and told me I needed to wear something below the waist.

    I use a uniform for my business and I've discovered that it is like a stove in that you can heat it up or cool it down easily and quickly.

    When I first started to go out in public, I played it down a bit. Wearing short-shorts & simple tee's. But once I told everyone what I was doing, out came the skirts and dresses. Of course my nails were always done a light shade of pink. I favor L'Oreal #250 "Shopping Spree". A nice pink with a bit of sparkle.

    Now I wear skirts & tops most of the time. Sort of a casual look, nothing fancy. But if there is a call for it, I'll dress to the nines. For a party or going to a club it all depends on the atmosphere that I expect there as to how 'dressy' I'll get.
    All in all, I just dress how I feel each day. So, skirts & tops are the usual for me.

    So I say... Dress the way you feel, every day.
    And do yourself a favor when you shop... Read the labels on your clothes. Almost everything I have now is machine washable, or at least hand washable.
    Oh sure I have some that are 'Dry Clean Only', but I don't wear them that often. It's got be a pretty big event for me to wear one of those dresses.

    Semi-fem to me means to go out looking like a guy in a skirt, which I've done.

    Makeup and forms, sans wig, looks more like a woman with a short haircut.

    I quite often go out semi-dressed. I wear female jeans and sweaters, I often wear silky camis under knit shirts and lately I've been wearing womens slacks. No one seems to notice or I don't notice them noticing me LOL.

    I also get pedicures and when I leave the nail salon I am wearing open toed sandles .. the female customers don't mind and I've actually been encouraged by their responses.

    I'm a full time woman these days, but during my first year learning curve I went out with all sorts of mixed presentations. I had that gender euphoria so badly that my male presentation immediately immediately included women's jeans, jewelry, fingernail polish, and feminine walk and mannerisms.

    Somehow looking like an effeminate guy didn't bother me, but there was always a strong line, I felt, between that and attempting to present as female.

    The line for me is basically wig and breast forms. I know it doesn't work like that for everybody, but me, my age, my male pattern baldness, those are the two aids I need to feel secure that I am presenting as female.

    I have only been outside once dressed and that was when I met a friend, here on the forum. Went to her house to change, then drove home in fem attire at night.

    Make up and wigs are definitely beyond the line at my house and I would not want to even think of successfully hiding them at all...so semi-fem is where I am at. woman's shorts, capris, woman's shirts, a purse and for today only: pink toes (wife is out of town)

    sort of

    Almost every day.. sort of.
    Most of my jeans are women's. Size 14UT from JCP. I go rather conservative on style and color. Panties almost daily. I hint of perfume now and then or "Secret" anti-persperaint. If anyone at work know or speculates, they haven't said anything. Especially our AA (administrative assistant) who has worn some of the same jeans... just luckily.. not on the same day.

    about the only time i get out in a skirt is when i go to my renaissance meetings ( the only time the wife lets me out by myself). when i go shopping the wife always goes and i certainly don't want to outdress her so jeans, shorts, or capris it is. i don't mind dressing in this fashion cause most gg's dress this way and it's easier to blend in.

    I live in the NY area and it's pretty unremarkable to see mixed up gender looks. I have a friend with shaved legs, long long blond hair, dangly earrings and scarves. He's married and claims that his wife doesn't know. Not shaved, waxed! I still sometimes go to downtown clubs where gender bending is appreciated. 50-50 is the goal in some clubs. There's a great trannie world here. Except for the demise of Ina's on 20th St. But I hear that Karlyn is back somewhere.

    I love to dress up when im alone, but am still nevouse of going out in all femme. The most I have have done is wear a bra, panties, stockings and girls t-shirt under my jeans and jacket. It was still a huge rush being out in public wearing that. I am still working up the nerve to go out all dressed up.
