Well today started like any other, but I knew after work that I was traveling to GB in Auburn MA to try and "complete my look." So in my skinny jeans and plaid off I went, and so I arrived. Dull and boring and well maybe a little preppy.
I never anticipated what would happen next.
After choosing my new wig and fitting my new bra and forms, I tried on a cute black long sleeve blouse....well that did it!!!!! IT. I wanted to go home like that.
I have never been out of the house for anything meaningful dressed, and here I was an hour from home. I wanted to do this right. So I asked for a makeover and WOW, I was so happy, so comfortable, so excited to be out. At first the SA thought I was going to clean up before I left, but there was no way that was going to happen.
I paid for my new items, many of which I was wearing out of the store, and off I went. I couldn't just drive straight home.

I was feeling too, too, at home already!
So I stopped, at a CVS, and for the first time in my life walked into a public place en femme!!!!!!!!!! I did it!!!!!!!
It was wonderful and liberating and scary and...nobody cared.
I purchased what I went in for and well a new pair of flats was in order, because I didn't bring any with me, and well my old boat shoes just didn't go. So off to Famous Footwear....there I found a cute pair of flats on the clearance rack...

the SA thought they were cute too.

So out the door I went with a new pair of flats...
on the radio Elton John came on with "Someone Saved My Life Tonight!"
At home finally, I just couldn't help snapping a couple of selfies of just how excited and great I felt about today! MY FIRST TIME OUT IN PUBLIC.
