First Time Out

[Katie7]

So, I've been underdressing a lot. Though, same as many of you have always wanted to take one more step and put more on while I'm out.

So the story is that I'm visiting a friend this evening who is two hours drive away. I'm planning to to the drive enfemme for the very first time. I'm planning to underdress as much as I can to avoid the neighbours and then change to what I want to wear in the car. It should be a nice drive.

Also I'm posting a photo of my outfit for the very first time.

Exciting times

Once you go out you've opened Pandora's box! Have fun!

Though I'm not a big fan of the shoes, I love the look as a whole, especially the plaid skirt.
Should be an exciting drive!

Ditto !!!!!

Should be thrilling and scary. Drink in every moment.

Since it's your first time, just a word of advice... you're going to be on "high alert" during this event. There may be adrenaline involved which affects your sense of time and proportion. Small upsets will seem like disasters, you'll be hyper-vigilant, etc. It's important to relax and be forgiving of yourself if anything goes wrong. But afterwards.... there'll be this rush of "omigawd! I did this! I wanted to do it and I did it!" and that, you should lean into and enjoy! Tell us all about it afterward. ;)

edit: BTW, it's not at all hard to drive in heels, but it is hard on heels to have to drive in them. If you have a pair you are especially fond of, you should bring along a pair of flats for driving and switch at your destination. ;)

OMG cute outfit!

[~Joanne~]

well the outfit is cute, I agree with Alice, Gilligan wants his shoes back lol I can see you not wanting to risk heels though so maybe you should buy a pair of flats for your driving adventures. Now for some forms, a wig and a little makeup ;) Hope you enjoyed your drive.

[CynthiaD]

I agree with the other posters. Being outside the house en femme is a fabulous feeling, and you'll only want more of it.

Oh, and the shoes are just fine. They make you look like a girl on the go.

[Kayla_K]

Love the outfit!

[carrie001]

I think the outfit is cute as hell! (Including the shoes) Enjoy your drive!

[Marcelle]

Hi Katie,

Very cute outfit and it suits your frame quite nicely . . . plaid skirt, one word . . . boots :). I hope you enjoy your drive.

Cheers

I have no problem going out. I mean I am brave enough to do it. If bravery is the word.

The problem I have is shoes. I've got loads but I can't walk in any of them for longer than round the block. I don't drive so I have to walk everywhere. When doing this I must take into account my coming back.

The shoes either come off my feet or they start hurting.

It's okay in the house; I go upstairs and downstairs, all over the place. But I juust can't get to grips walking in shoes outside.

I have courts and wedge shoes. The wedge shoes are probably the better option but they still hurt after about half a mile.

[Krisi]

Jennifer, have you considered buying a pair of flats?

Katie, I have the same suggestion for you. Flats.

Katie, I'm assuming that you are pretty young and also that your friend knows about your dressing. The outfit is great for a young girl, not so much for us older women. And as someone suggested, don't forget a wig, breast forms, jewelry and a purse. A woman has to have a purse.

[Pat]

...don't forget a wig, breast forms, jewelry and a purse. A woman has to have a purse.

I could swear I've seen women out and about without a purse. Maybe they don't know the rules. ;)

[AmyVanessa]

Hmm that is a very stylish ensemble, I love that plaid skirt, and those are very cute shoes for driving

[sara.rafaela]

I had that problem too. I wear a ladies 13, hard to find. I can fit into a 12. I bought a high quality stretcher for my 12 shoes and this to care of a lot of the pain factor. For slipping off, try mary janes, or a stylish pair of ankle boots. Also you can buy cheap pads that go in the back of the shoe from keeping it from slipping.

Are you sure they were women? Maybe just crossdressers who pass. (And of course, THEY don't know the rules).

[Dana44]

Katie, nice outfit. Have fun on your trip. Tell us about it when you get back.

[Annajose]

Love the outfit! Have fun!

[KristyE]

Love the outfit, very cute.
Love KristyE

I had a recent experience driving which makes me smile now, but was nerve shredding at the time.

I was just putting the finishing touches to my make-up whilst in bra, pants stockings and suspenders (garters). My wife left for church later than she usually did (she's in the choir so couldn't be late). I was trying to decide what my wardrobe was going to be for the day, when my wife rushed back in saying her car wouldn't start and that she needed me to drive her to church - right now! I was casting around for what skirt and top to put on when she said - DON'T BOTHER! we don't have time. At which point she thrust a coat at me and said "Put it on. Let's go!"

So.. I had to rush out of the house is racy underwear with only a coat over it and drive through town to her church hoping that nobody was watching and that nothing untoward happened on the way.

A bit scary, but actually rather thrilling - when can I do it again please?!

[Krisi]

I suppose you could do it any time you want to but it has to be coat weather. That would look pretty silly in the summer time.

I hope you realize that you were dressed as the stereotypical "pervert". A man wearing nothing but women's underwear and a trench coat.

For me, it would have been a lot more fun if my wife demanded that I drive her somewhere when I was already fully dressed as Krisi.



Jennie, women carry purses because most women's clothing doesn't have pockets and the pockets they do have are usually decorative, not practical.

You need a place for your keys, money, credit cards and drivers license at least. The average woman will have a whole lot more in her purse. Cell phone, tissues, lipstick and other makeup, medication, you name it.

Perhaps you saw a woman jogging and everything but her car key was back in her purse in the car.

[stockings_jane]

Ahh yes Krisi, it would have been the stereotypical pervert but for the fact it was a very stylish woman's coat! I don't actually own a pervert's mac but my wife has a good collection of coats and they are evidently all close to hand for emergencies.

[flatlander_48]

Not sure if I can drive with hills! never done it before ;)

Katie x

No, you can do it with hills; heels too!

My MINI has a 6-spd manual transmission. If I can drive it wearing 3"-4" heels and with arthritic ankles with limited flexibility, you surely can...

[Ashley Lyn]

Love the outfit...!! I think the shoes are cute with the skirt, but I prefer Mary Jane's or a 'loafer'..
Let us know how it goes.. Truthfully, I LOVE the look.. CUTE!

[Fany27ab]

Drive with those shoes and put it on your heels when you arrive :)

[Tracii G]

I hope the heels are 3 in and not higher JMO.

[Robin414]

Ahh yes, driving in heels is hell on wheels! I remember my first time out in over 20 years, drove a six speed manual in 3" heel boots...talk about an adrenaline rush that I really didn't need at the time 😨

[Katie7]

Hiiii,

Thank you for all the nice messages. I had an interesting day with no particular incidents. I managed to do things as planned. A bit of underdressing, drove to the first service station, found a quiet spot and changed in the car. Drove to my frinds house and changed back to my other clothes before I went in. He doesn't know about my CDing though I do want to come out to him at some point.

As for the style (and shoes), this is my style! I am an active person and I usually look like someone on the go even when I go to work and on my day to day. Not that I never wear smart or sexy clothes / dresses. I do like flats but dont have any at the moment :(

Any how, on refelction of going out for the first time, it was a bit thrilling at the beginning but soon it just became like normal. There was no excitement, nothing! it felt like everything is just normal. I'm ususally very excited when I dress up at home but I didn't have that! I wasn't nervous I was very calm. I only came out of the car for a few seconds but was never bothered with anyone seeing me. I wonder why something that should be very big for me just felt like normal!

Also, I want to say without this forum I’d never had the courage to do this and now that the pandora box is open I shall try and do this again. Not sure when I’ll be going on a log trip without the SO!
