where did you hide your stuff?

[Sophia]

Hi

May by everybody who start CD

use her mom or sister stuff

but in some point you go & buy for you

tell me how did you buy it..?

& if you kept that as you little secret

where did you hide your stuff...?

I hope I get benefit form your Experience

because I don't know how to keep it as I want

[Shananigans]

Hannah hid her stuff in my dorm room. If you looked in my third drawer, you would find an assortment of highly scandalous clothing materials.

[Kickin' Crosser]

First time my CDing became a regular thing: my dorm dresser draw, or bag with foam swords for LARPing
Later on in college: Closet, since I didn't use it anyways and nobody else went in it
Now: A nice bin that fits in the floor of the closet in my room.

[Persephone]

Inside my stereo speakers! There were six screws that held the back onto the speaker cabinet. I would remove them, stuff my clothes in around the speakers, and replace the back.

Last time a question like this got asked, it turned out that quite a few of us used that location. It may muffle the sound a bit, and you have to be careful not to punch holes in the actual speakers inside the cabinets, but, otherwise, it was both pretty secure and pretty techy.

[danisin]

I normally try to put it in a draw that nobody looks in. i have plenty of places like that

[Raine]

I buy most of my clothes online since it's cheaper and there's better selection, although sometimes I find something in the stores I absolutely adore and have to buy. I buy all my make-up at local stores.

I don't hide any of it so no tips from me there. :straightface:

[KayleeDahl]

File cabinet use to be one of my favorite places. It locks, and then you have 1 drawer for actual files, and the rest for secure storage!

I had to think about this question. It has been so long that I honestly don't remember if I had to hide anything. From the start, I found a chest of girls clothes in the apartment above the garage that was always vacant. I know I simply left them there. (age 10 or so) Through my teen years, dressing was a rather hit and miss thing. If I was in a relationship with a girl, as in going steady, my desire or need to crossdress disappeared. When I married the first time, It also was rather hit and miss and I did not have any clothes. My wife was very tiny and none of her things would fit me. I did not fully dress until I met the woman that became my second wife. I told her about it and had no reason to hide the wardrobe she helped me build from that point on. since then, every relationship I ever had knew and accepted my dressing, so no need to hide anything. I would not have it any other way.

[Michelle123]

I was very young when I started, and not very and not very imaginative at first. I hid things under my mattress....HA...First place mom looked.....Those were back in the days when stepfather was still in the picture, so things werent going so well back then......

[Billijo49504]

That's why my first wife divorced me, I didn't hide the stuff. And that's part of the reason my 2nd wife married me. We used to love to go out together as 2 girls. Actually, she asked to be burried in one of my outfits. And my present wife asked me the other day, if I still had any guy clothes? So no, I never hid stuff...BJ

[Sophia]

Shananigans

Billijo49504
I hope happy life with your wife & that is gone is gone

I will be happy to see it

[FemmeElastique]

When I first started CDing, I lived in a dorm room. All my friends and acquaintances knew I was gay and I was very open about going to fetish parties. Some of them even tried on my clothes and took pics. It was fun. LOL

And now that I'm not in college anymore, I live with my sister. She knows I dress up to go to fetish parties and that I go to a transsexual club sometimes dressed up. All my stuff is in a duffle bag. The bag is in my bedroom or in my car at all times. I guess I was lucky that I never had to hide it from anyone. When she sees me walking out the house with my bag, she calls it my hoe bag. LOL

[charlenesomeone]

Attic, closet, Attic, tote in Attic, car, Attic, seems like a theme here...:eek:

[Veronica Lacey]

When I still lived with my parents so long ago I kept things in a box on the top shelf of my closet and I also had one drawer with a key lock to which only I had the key.

At age 20 I would simply go to the mall and purchase from a lingerie store under the guise of buying for my girlfriend. I am a conservative dresser so if it was for actual outer wear - blouse, skirt, pants and the like - I would purchase as if buying for my mother.

[MrKunk]

I used to hide everything underneath my dressers ussually under the last drawer.

[Berta82]

Most of my things are in several totes hidden in the dark reaches of my basement. I also have things in a filing cabinet in my office and under some clothes in my dresser. The collection is getting rather large so hiding it is becoming more of a challenge. I guess thats something I need to deal with being so deep in the closet. Maybe someday that will change.

[JenniferRose]

I usually buy things online, stores in person not very often. As for "hiding" use to be in a drawer no one looked in but after I got my own place I just put everything in the closet lol

[VikkiVixen7188]

I dont hide it. lol. My fishnets are sitting on the table right now, just everyone pretends to not notice lol.

[Miss Tanya]

Attics always worked pretty well for me, and a locked toolbox for my panties.

[Jenny Green]

There's a college in my town that I went to years ago. One of the buildings used to be the Music Building and there's lockers on the top floor where students would keep instruments. They're mostly unused now, so I keep my stuff in one of them. Good thing is that there's no way the wife or family will find my things, but the bad part is that there are times I have some free time to dress but the building is locked.
On the whole, it's a nice setup.

[JenniferR771]

I kept a lot of stuff in boxes in the back seat of my pickup, or behind the seat in gym bags in my new, smaller pickup. And I have a huge stash of girly things in my outdoor storage shed--locked. Wife found out but does not approve. But now there are dresses in garment bags in closet. Wigs in shoe boxes on closet shelf. Wigs in file cabinet drawers. A few dresses in the back of her closet mingled with her own. A dark black dress mingled with old suit coats in the dark corner of my closet. And a few dresses with sport coat hung on a hanger over the dress.

[izzfan]

Now that I am living away from home (temporarily at least), I have no need to hide all of my stuff. But, back when I was living at home, my earliest (and best) hiding places included cramming parts of my female wardrobe into a large space behind a desk in my room and hiding two rolled-up skirts in a shoebox (with a layer of papers on top of them to deter casual observation) on the top shelf of my bookshelves.

[Jezebella]

My bedroom closet is shaped like an L due to the chase for the chimney running through it. The the leg of the L is at the back and the closet is deep enough for two rods, so that's been a perfect spot to hang all my dresses so they're out of view of any family who might be nosing around.

Just did a small purge of things from my teens that will clearly never fit me again, and reorganized everything else into two plastic storage bins. I wish I'd discovered those sooner. They're just as great for keeping the shoes wigs safe when the cat inevitably gets into the closet as they are for making the Christmas clutter in the basement look neat and tidy. :)

[AKAMichelle]

long time ago in boxes in my office. Now everything fits into the closet so now thankfully there are no more wrinkles.

[Danamtv]

When I first started I would drive over to a department store 10 miles away or more and buy lingerie, stockings etc. I would usually buy dresses, purses and jewelry at Goodwill or Salvation Army, although obviously that was very hit or miss. Getting shoes was a more difficult problem so I eventually ordered pumps and other shoes from catalogs or online.

I hid my stuff first in the attic (discovered by mom), then in my closet (ditto) and eventually behind a piece of drywall that was loose but looked solid. To my knowledge this was never found.

In college I kept my stuff in a laundry bag in my closet as there was little chance any roommates would want to look in that.

Now most of my lingerie is in my dresser, while shoes, dresses, breast forms etc are in the basement. My wife knows about all the stuff: the only time I have to hide it is when her mother comes to visit, and I always have advance warning.

[PretzelGirl]

I believe in hiding most of it in plain sight. My shoes are under the bed right next to my wife's. My clothes are in my closet and me and my wife just call them her's if anyone asks. The only real hiding is the stuff I have that my wife wouldn't have, like maybe the forms, so in a footlocker under the bed.

[bianca66]

Thrift stores are probably your best bet (till you figure out your sizing). Most gurls start with stretchy knit dresses at first. Thrift store blouses/skirts range around 3-5 dollars. You can also pick up new unopened packaged nylons for around a dollar...This doesn't feel as harsh if you have to get rid of stuff in a pinch.

[Heidi_slave]

I have a wonderful live-in GG who knows NOTHING, so I can't hide anything at home. When The Urge hits and I buy clothes I hide them under the rim of the spare time under the trunk of my car. You can't keep very much in there, but the GG rarely drives my car, so the odds of her finding my lingerie are rather remote.

Of course, that leads to the next question, where do you dress?

[bridget jones]

anywhere I didn't think it would be found.

[annomusE]

currently Im living at home. Im hiding my undies (panties) in a couple pairs of shoes (ie hiking boots, old running shoes) as for my other things I hide them with my other clothes and mix them in well so that its just another not folded shirt. As for when Im at college I hide stuff similarly thow often my undies get tucked under my mattress pad and then flattened down

[Angie G]

Before my wife knew I would keep my things locked id a toolbox in the basement.I had to do something as she had to stop working. One really hot day I got her to let me wear a skirt and It grew from there. Now all my things are upstairs.And I dress % days a week at home with her there.:hugs:
Angie

[eluuzion]

A few things to consider regarding “hiding” locations before you actually do it…

Wiring and electrical + clothing = Fire hazard.
Perspiration, perfume and other odors = attract bugs and pests.
Extreme heat + some of the above items = can equal mildew mold etc.
Attics, basements, crawlspaces, etc. can contain fiberglass, asbestos bad dust.
Pets have a knack for sniffing out your body scent (and hiding spots).
Most people hide things at eye level.
Family and friends WILL go snooping when given the chance.
If you need a hiding place, you will need to access it quickly, plan for it.
You may need to dispose of everything quickly, plan for that too.
Always know the total number of items in your hiding place. A list is better.
Devise a way to tell if someone has accessed your hiding location.
Never toss anything in your trash that you do not want to share with others.
Consider all possible reasons others might be close to your hiding place.
Make your stash size as small as possible, but plan for expansion.
Make your location accessible 24/7 in all climates if possible.
Store all contents in separate plastic bags, which are waterproof.
Store liquids and messy items in separate bags from dry stuff (clothes).

Ask yourself…
What reasons the people you are concerned about would have for “snooping”.
Consider what they might do if they discover your “stash”. Then decide what you will do if they do discover it. If they have the potential to use any of the information in a manner that would discredit you, ask yourself why you have people like that in your life. If you do, then make sure you have information equal to or more damaging on them to counter “blackmail” attempts or other dysfunctional behavior typically displayed by “losers”.

Always have a plan “A”, a plan “B” and a contingency plan. Chances are good that you will need them all someday.
Remember that people always know more and are more perceptive than you think they are.

Consider making your overall goal one that allows you to live in a place where none of this is necessary.

I would give you some examples of some excellent hiding places, but then they would not be a secret any more…would they? :heehee:

When I was married, I traveled 5 days/week and had a briefcase with my CD stuff that I would grab from the attic in garage before leaving for airport.

HaveFun/BeHappy:love:

[Leyna]

Haven't been doing it that long, so my collection is not large. The undies, shoes and such are in a briefcase (I just realized that's pretty funny!) in the garage. The clothes are on hangers in the closet, underneath some guy clothes I don't wear anymore because they either don't fit or have gone out of style.

[Hermione Simpson]

Before I came out, I use to hide most of my female clothing & other items in a big holdall bag which only I went in, but now I put most of it in drawers in my bedroom, although I still use the bag from time to time because of what I've bought over the years

[Sandra Dunn]

When I started to buy my own things I put them in the closet or the drawer where ever they would normally be stored, no hiding. They are my clothes.

Sandra

[Jessica Who]

I had several hiding places.


In my closet, in a file folder box
Next to my bed, in a Chicago Bears laundry bag
In an old suitcase, under my bed


As far as I knew, none of the hiding places were ever discovered

[shadyterri]

I have a small locked toolbox in the back of my truck. It's amazing how much I can store in it when everything is neatly rolled up. I also have another hiding place in the garage in a box under a stack of tools. I really wish my wife would accept my dressing as I hate to hide it, as my clothes are beautiful.

[Miley]

When I first started I borrowed my mums, then I had friends give me some clothes that I would keep under the bed. I was living out of home at this time and friends knew I dressed (For fun because they though I was being silly, not because they new i was a CD) Now I live with my wife and my clothes are all hanging up with my guy clothes or they are in the dirty basket ready to be washed.:heehee:

[Nancie64]

I have a little trouble remembering where I use to hide the few things I had when I was young. and at home. We had this little storage areas under the eves of the roof, and only us younger persons could get in there, pretty small space. After I got married the first time, my SO allowed me to keep it in a drawer and in the closet. My 2nd wife knew from the start and allows me to keep my clothes in the drawers(plural) and hanging in the closet. Sometimes she drops the hint that Nancie has to many clothes hanging in the closet, she takes up about 1/3 of the bar. Her sister knows and has agreed to take care of these things if something should happen while we are traveling. My kids do not know and have no reason to every find out.

[kimberly ann487]

I stopped hiding today !

[JiveTurkeyOnRye]

When I was ending Jr. High and starting high school, I moved into the downstairs bedroom and my bedframe was pushed against the wall, into the corner, with just a little one foot gap to make room for the headboard. there were wooden drawers in my bedframe, so the drawers on the side of my bed that were close to the wall were a perfect place to hide girly clothes.

Now of course they hang in my closet or they're in my drawers.

[Cary]

I live alone and have a lot of stuff, so hiding is not an option. I just keep my stuff in a bolt locked closet in my bedroom. I live in an old building and sometimes the doors wont stay shut, plus my long-hair cats love getting into everything. When I did hide my stiff, I was not good at it.

[Jessica Jameson]

When Living with my parents I had drawers built into some of the walls, I would take out the drawers and put my clothes behind the wall.

Now I just keep my clothes in my closet.

[joanne anderson]

[FONT="Arial"][SIZE="2"][COLOR="Blue"]My first purchase was a short black dress that I bought from a Salavation army clothing shop. From then on I was regular visitor but after a while I decided I needed to have a better choice of clothing and began visiting womens shops, pretending I was buying something special for my wives birthday etc.
Make-up and other smaller items I just went forth and bought without any hassle.
As for storing all these wonderful things, well I would put them into two large bags and then climb into our attic and under an area I had floored, would stuff them away. Obviuosly this limited the amount of clothes I could store at any one time thus the was a need to cull some things I had and take them to the Salvation army for them to sell.
This was how things were until I came out to my wife, who was accepting of my crossdressing. Now I have my own room and a large wardrobe to hang all my nice things.

Love Joanne

[sometimes_miss]

As a kid, I hid my current clothes in the bottom of my box spring, I had cut a slit into the liner; then slid my stash as far to the frame as I could so it wouldn't accidently fall out. The other stuff stayed in old clothes bags in the attic; my mom never threw anything out, so I knew it was safe up there. When I moved out an shared with other guys, I kept my stash in my suitcase, which had a combination lock on it. When married I had to get a little more creative; we had a semi finished basement and attic. There were exposed beams in parts of the basement, I would put my stuff in plastic bags, squeeze all the air out to flatten them, and slide them beyond reach above the ceiling of the basement. No one else besides me could reach there. I also took it upon myself to arrange a 'loose' floorboard in a crawlspace of the attic, only held in by a nail that was easily pried out with any screwdriver or knife. Today I live alone and just hang my girl stuff with my guy stuff. I suppose if I ever date and they don't know about my CDing', I could go back to putting everything in my luggage, which of course all still have combination locks.

[Rio]

Hi! As a kid I would wear my Mum’s or sister’s things but in my early teens I put my clothes in a box on top of my wardrobe, I was living with my Nan at the time who had difficulty getting about so I think I felt I didn’t have to be quite so worried about her finding them.

When it came to buying the clothes I would visit thrift stores, I can still remember the look on the one elderly ladies face when I placed two gypsy style skirts on the counter she was soooooo shocked :eek: !! I must have been 13 or 14 years old at the time, she asked me who they were for I kept my cool and I told her “Me” :eek::eek::eek:, her friend just smiled and seemed to understand I recall her giving her colleague a nudge and a shake of the head as if to say “let it be, don’t question him”. :battingeyelashes:

At about the same time I also bought clothing from a local cut price supermarket too, I remember there was a really cheap silk cami knicker that I just had to have! I think my desire to dress was so strong that it completely overcome any fear I might have had, nowadays I don’t have to hide things and the great thing is that I’m starting to recapture some of that carefree spirit I had in my early teens again which is great if I want to go out and do some shopping without feeling anxious :)

[Jacqui]

I don't have too much stuff, but if I did, I would buy a big chest to put my things in, and on top of that, I would place a terrarium with a pet tarantula. There is no way that my wife would go within 20 feet.

http://www.exploralasalud.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/tarantula.jpg

[fireflyespiritus]

Well the only person I am hiding anything from is my father, so my dresser drawer works plenty fine...which is surprising considering how nosy he usually is.

[Sabrina]

One of my favorites, in a pile of dirty cloths. None of my roommates ever touched those. Now, they're all in with my normal cloths.

[NV Susan]

Hi, I live in Las Vegas so naturally I hide my things in the cabinet that my slot machine sits atop!!!!!

[Reid]

I still live at home, so i'll definitely need some places to hide. My first bits of clothes are on their way right now. I have quite a few empty boxes stacked in my room (Laptop, Xbox, computer, etc) I keep those for when I want to sell my stuff on ebay. Noone of my family will ever look in those, so they will be a perfect hiding spot for my stuff.

The only thing I am a bit afraid of is my wig. Does anyone know how careful you have to be with storing wigs? I don't want to hide it and have it ruined in a few days :(

As for shopping, I ordered everything on Ebay. I am in love with EGL clothing, and quite a bit of it is easy to find on there for decent prizes. The fact that it's not branded on the outside will allow me to receive it easier without raising suspicion from my parents.

[leean]

I have a dresser with my girly things in it. Other than a couple of pairs of heels under my bed, everything is in that dresser.

[mklinden2010]

I hope I get benefit form your Experience

I really had to think about this a long time to recall that it didn't really occur to me to hide things because of any concern about crossdressing...

What for?

Hidden things get found and what bothers people isn't the stuff - but you being inconsistent:

"Who are you and what did you do with the other guy I THOUGHT I knew?"

If I kept things out of sight, it was for an entirely different reason; I didn't want things that I valued disappearing. Vain hope in a large household, if anyone is so minded, but you can try... Did you ever try to hide a box of cookies anywhere?

For about thirty years, I've left clothes hanging in plain sight in the closet, CDing books out where anyone could see them, and, I've freely offered my opinions about anything if I felt like it.

People are pretty good about minding their own business if they can claim they didn't see, didn't hear, didn't notice anything. I still recall my shock at hearing CDers in support groups describing, "suddenly blind and deaf," family members who would actually walk into a room - and keep going - with the CDer standing there in plain site.

"Uh, they don't want to play. It's your business. They know all they want to know - they ARE giving you space to do what you want and you CAN bring it up without the world ending..."

Over time, CDers would go home, bring the subject up, and be met with:

"Yeah... I, uh, don't know what else I can tell you about that. So, you gonna mow the yard Saturday?"

Interestingly, some CDers would come back and say, "They don't care about what I do. So, maybe the don't CARE about meeeee....?"

Talk about finding something new to worry about!

At any rate, people constantly talk about "Having the conversation with the SO" and "coming out" to their friends, etc.

Yet, how do your friends and family know you're into stock car racing or like a certain kind of steak, and so forth?

Because you hide race cars in distant storage units and stash steaks under the bed?

I hope not.

I understand your point. And in agree with what you say. But sadly society we live in does not always feel the same.

We grow up in a world were crossdressing etc is seen as something wrong. It's only natural for a lot of people to be afraid of coming out for who they really are.
I wish I had the nerve to be as casual about it here at home. But sadly I don't, I am being controlled by fear.

[spivey]

An old suitcase in the attic has worked well for me.

R,

The society you primarily live in is your home.

Make it more homey...

It's "natural" to fear thunder, earthquakes, and heights.

But, it's not entirely "natural" when you know better.

Thunder is noise, earthquakes are the earth shifting due to plate tectonics, and, a fear of heights can be a healthy thing, but need not keep you from using stairs.

You have a right to your likes and dislikes.

You need not fear them, or, give people reason to fear you.

Be more open about yourself and life will still go on... Better.

Never perfect, but better.

That's all I can tell you about that.

[Elsa von Spielburg]

Currently living in a dorm, so: smaller things, underthings, and mesh things in the second drawer in the small dresser next to my bed. Forms in a box underneath my jacket in the back corner of my closet. And 4" heels... sitting right in the front of the closet I rarely close. *hint hint to roommates* :)

[SexxxyDJ]

Mine is all in a large duffel bag just beneath where my convertible top recesses. I also keep a small travel bag in my office drawer with my make-up kit. So far the duffel in the car works well since I always have my car with me. I normally dress at my office in the evenings and on weekends when no one else will be in.
I also dress at home occasionally when my wife is out for extended periods of time - she does not know.

[brookalicious]

MY stuff is currently in the attic, neatly tucked away amongst boxes that say: "Frames" and "Halloween Decorations"

:)

[Angiemead12]

I use to have it locked in a small bag, or wrapped in plastic hidden in a top corner shelve!

Now Im free to have it in my closet. :daydreaming:

[tanyalynn51]

my bedroom had a little door to where the attic and insulation were. It was never used for storage, so I had a bag to protect my clothes. Still got caught, although it was at least a few years.

[ladyinblack]

I used to hide my stuff in my truck behind the seat. One day I got polled over by a cop and he looked back there and asked me who's these were? I said mine.

[MichelleOBrien]

I used to put my stuff between my matress and boxspring, mostly cuz NOBODY would look there. But that was 12 years ago when I was 13. Since then, I've come out at least to my family, who doesn't care if I have panties and bras in my dresser. Just most of em don't wanna see me dressed or have me with em when I am.

Still need to go out with my godmother, who IS accepting.

[Kelly Blaine]

Various places over the years. I live by myself know and they dominate my closet and dresser. Very little room for the drab work clothes.

[MsGreen]

In the bottom of my closet, with a diary -- If I am discovered, I want my story to be there next to the clothing.

[NathalieX66]

That was my trick when I was a teenager. If my mom ever found out, she never said anything.

[Tasha McIntyre]

Hi Sophia, I have always bought in store but since the internet arrived I have a few online purchases.

As a young teenager still living with my parents, my stash was in an old sportsbag hidden at the back of my wardrobe. Later on, before I came out to the wife I used a similar method. Now my stash hangs proudly and colourful in the wardrobe next to my dull guy crap :daydreaming:

Tash :)

[Toni_Lynn]

Inside my stereo speakers! There were six screws that held the back onto the speaker cabinet. I would remove them, stuff my clothes in around the speakers, and replace the back.

Me too! It was back in the 70s. Nothing quite like like listening to glam rock like T Rex and the Sweet through speakers stuffed with panties bras and dresses :-)

Now I hide my stuff right next to my wife's stuff :)

[ReneeT]

I rent a 10 x 10 storage unit that is very secluded. it is essentially my dressing room. I hate to have such separation in my life, ut for now it works extremely well. it is about 3 minutes from my home, and I can go from guy to gal completely there. Here a a few photos ( if you are counting, there are 61 pairs of shoes. Ok, i like shoes. I do wear them all, though - really!!)

I use the larger of my two closets, but it is beginning to bulge, and the crossbar is hanging low. My wife has known forever, not too happily, and she doesn't care to snoop, as far as I know.

I don't have room for all my shoes, and since I refuse to just dump them into a box, there are pairs in various chests and cabinets. I've got to get rid of some of them. Perhaps I'll have a "closet sale."

In the earliest stage of my CD career I borrowed things like hose and panty girdles from my petite mom's wardrobe and returned them as soon as I could. Later, when I had some of my own duds I stashed things wherever I thought it would be too uncomfortable or disgusting for my parents to dig around, like anywhere amongst the awful rubbish in a teenager's room.

At least the only shoes I had then were thong sandals, which were theoretically unisex, even though girls wore them, mostly.

When I finally went out into the world, I'd keep my girly stuff in duffle bags and banker boxes jammed into the back of the closet, and none of my dates or mates ever knew about the real me.

Maybe, Sophia, you'll be more fortunate than a lot of us and be able to stop hiding while you're still young.

WOW! I wish I had that many shoes! I only have one pair now because I hide my clothes as my bottom layer in my regular clothes dresser. If I had my way, I think our shoe collections would rival each others. ;)


I rent a 10 x 10 storage unit that is very secluded. it is essentially my dressing room. I hate to have such separation in my life, ut for now it works extremely well. it is about 3 minutes from my home, and I can go from guy to gal completely there. Here a a few photos ( if you are counting, there are 61 pairs of shoes. Ok, i like shoes. I do wear them all, though - really!!)

Ok Renee, I have to ask. The one thing that looks out of place is the blender. Mixing up your own cosmetics? :heehee:

Sue - that's funny!! Actually, that is a portable light - there is no power in the storage unit

Holly, I am happy to loan it out, but OK is a long way from TN! I bet they have these facilities closer to home!

When I first began getting clothing on my own, I hid the items in the back of a deep closet in my bedroom with various items in front. When I was at driving age I purchased a panel van and customized it with hidden compartments. I will admit that the van was not the best as in customizing but it worked well for me, especially with a large mirror for doing makeup, good lighting and curtains behind the front seats.

I do not hide stuff, since I don't take anything home.

I only dress en femme during journeys, which makes it a rather rare occasion.

During such trips I always buy an entire new outfit and put it into the bin when I leave the hotel. That makes it rather expensive. But it's the only way I feel save. I would always be paranoid if I knew I had hidden stuff at home and someone could find it by coincidence.
