I’m still paying off my 1.9% APR credit card debt, so actually I couldn’t afford to buy anything, except thrift store $5 stuff. So I went window shopping at TJ Maxx, Jones New York, and Marshalls. Tried on a dress that didn’t work out at TJ Maxx. I dressed up in the same skirt suit as in my last Pic Thread… I feel like a pretty sexy professional chic when I go out and wear it. Like those many Professional ladies in skirt suits in Downtown Chicago! I’d sure like to shop dressed in Downtown Chicago but the CTA train R/T is about $5, so that’s why whenever I go to downtown Chicago I just bike there. I should go dressed up in women’s bike gear but I never tried that, as I wonder if I’d have a good tuck in my bike shorts. But one day, I’d like to be a Professional Chic in a skirt suit shopping in Downtown Chicago… But this actually happened around March 2009, when I went to an SSDI Psych appointment in Downtown Chicago. I dressed up in a skirt suit and I attracted so many men! One tried to run into me crossing the street!
Anyway, it feels great shopping and dressed as a pretty woman, and feeling like a professional chic. I prefer wearing skirt suits when I go out because they hide my manly arms [I can never go out sleeveless or else I’d get read by my arms], and skirt suits make me appear as if I have hips and an hourglass figure. Only bad thing about skirt suits is the dry cleaning expense, but I have several treasured skirt suits that are machine wash, - the best kind! Otherwise, I have select dresses or casual wear that I can go out in too, because sometimes a skirt suit seems overdressed, unless you’re wearing St John stuff and are trying to be “high class.”
As for shoes, I amassed a large collection of thrift store shoes since buying them from 2001, when I went back to crossdressing. Today I got the perfect $4.80 Purple heels to match my purple / black goth outfit! For dark skirt suits, I have the perfect size 2.625” high heels that are just the right tightness. If they don’t work out I have $65 Ann Klein flats.
I guess with being 4.5+ years unemployed now one thing I can do to amuse me is window shop in drag. But it’s so tempting to buy stuff! But I’m very picky in buying stuff as I already have a $50,000 collection of clothes. So I already have the best skirt suit collection you can have since buying them from 2005 when I became a size 4. Over 120 skirt suits! Imagine that sometimes I get thoughts of purging, but then I think of “How can I get rid of my clothes and get my money back?” Why purge? Because sometimes I get the NASTY thought that God is punishing me with unemployment until I purge all of my clothes. I actually get severe enough panic attacks at times when I have the notion that I have to purge!
Just had to rant and see where this goes… I guess I feel like I’d like to go shopping dressed up a little bit more… Just that I don’t have the money to buy stuff yet, unless it goes to CC debt.
How about you, when do you go out dressed for shopping? When you’re bored? Do you like to window shop in drag?
