My 1st actual purchase was a pair of nylon panties at a McClellan dept store ... light green.
I took a post office box when i was 19, and ordered a camisole and tap pants set that a local department store had nicely included an advertisement for in the monthly bill for my credit card. I suppose it was early in the marketing tracking years, as after that i was deluged with ads for woman's intimate clothing. Lucky me!
Some causes of crossdressing you've probably never even considered: My TG biography at:http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/...=1#post1490560
There's an addendum at post # 82 on that thread, too. It's about a ten minute read.
Why don't we understand our desire to dress, behave and feel like a girl? Because from childhood, boys are told that the worst possible thing we can be, is a sissy. This feeling is so ingrained into our psyche, that we will suppress any thoughts that connect us to being or wanting to be feminine, even to the point of creating separate personalities to assign those female feelings into.
I didn't have my first purchase til I was in the dorms on my first base, bout 5 years ago. We had a P.O. Box so it wasn't a issue of people seeing my purchases. I would say that I bought a pack of String Bikini Panties and a pack of Bikini style Panties.
Tracii G , I was so happy to read your post because I was beginning to think my age had caught up with me for I cannot remember my first purchase, I am surprised how trying it is to so many to buy fem things.
yep, this black halter top---still have it--pic was taken last week

Wow the first time I purchased anything was so long ago, I cannot remember just one purchase. I can say that at the time I was only interested in the underwear so it was probably panties, a bra and or a slip. But then I can't remember the first time I ever purchased a hot dog either. I have bought so many things that have been purged over the years....some only worn once. I would be able to start my own store if I had them all.
In 1961, my heart pounding, I got up the nerve to ask an associate at Woolworth's for a bra and panties "for my wife." I had put my guess at sizes on a piece a paper, pretending it was from my wife. The lady was very patient and helpful, launching me into a long lifetime of happy shopping experiences. In 51 years I have never had a bad shopping episode. I learned long ago that there was no need to pretend that the clothes were for anyone else. Paula
My first purchase was Sheer Energy panty hose, ya my haert was pounding big time.
A way too short red dress and black heels that were a size to small.
I guess that is to be expected when you have no idea your sizes and buy online!
Mine was a green flower dress silk a pink bra and panty set and garter belt stockings,i had to put them on layaway i could hardly wait for the day to put them on my wife helped me choose them i got them out and wore them with her help but after she saw me dressed she didnt want to do it anymore.said it changed me too much.im not sure why ,she was in a lesbian relatioship before i met her but i was wrong in wanting to dress dont see her logic at all
I do not remember my very first purchase but I do remember buying my first dress at a thrift store in Frankfort Ky on my way back to Southern IL. No one said anything to me but I got out of there in a hurry.
Mine was Hanes panties at Walmart ,bought many other items since.
My first purchase was panties. Got them at Walmart. Kept on buying and then bought bras. For years it was panties, bras, and pantyhose. Then when I bought my first outfit, the pink fog just rolled in and I had to have more. My first outfit I still have and remember it fondly.
My first purchase was a little black dress for Halloween when I was 18. Of course, I wore it more than a few times after that.
It was 4 pairs of tights over 30 years ago. Tights (pantyhose) only seemed to be in one colour then - "Amercan Tan", but I found some sheer Pretty Poly tights in pale blue and pale pink, and some Mary Quant semi opaque tights in red and green.
happy days!
A white peignoir set, from Sears back in California where I used to live. I got a gift box with it, even though I didn't intend to use it. The set got lost in my big purge.
On the other hand, my first dress purchase (and therefore my first start at really bringing "Amy" to life) was a pair of sheath dresses, one in black, one in blue, ordered online from JCPenney.com. I later learned that sheath dresses really didn't suit me, and donated them as part of thinning out my wardrobe prior to putting it in storage. I have much better dresses now.

Some cheap Kmart playboy string bikini panties, when I was 16 and could drive in Northern CA.
After "the talk" with my wife early in our marriage she took me shopping for some lingerie. I think my first purchase was a full-length Olga nightgown in light blue. Delightful to wear, and she liked it too

My first purchase was Halloween 54 years ago when I was 17. I drove many miles to another city and bought a bra, panties, nylons, a garterbelt, and a dress. Then I went to a wig store and bought a wig and a shoe store and got a pair of black pumps with three inch heels. It cost me most of my savings. So there I was with a great costume but no makeup and not a clue how to apply it even if I had some.
I wore the outfit in private several times, never applying makeup, before I purged for the first time.
My first purchase was a mail order Victoria's Secret LBD in about 1995. I still have it, I'll be sad when it finally wears out. In person, actually before that, as I'm thinking about it, I bought a pair of black heels from a Rich's dept. store. Was fascinated by heels as a teenager!

My first was a pair of used leather boots. I got it at a thrift store in 08 when I was 17 years old.
I don't dress to impress, I dress to outdress
I pair of black, 4 inch pumps that were 1/2 half size too small. I bought them in the middle of downtown Hialeah in 1991. Yikes, that was a long time ago!
