Mini went out to play

[MiniRock]

It's five months since Mini showed herself in public. So I was looking forward to an early morning jaunt. After a last minute panic about makeup (my partner helps herself), and two hours of preparation, I was on the Strassenbahn into central Vienna by 6:00 on a beautiful cold morning. Nothing too out of the ordinary to report. Other than everyone here tells me to smile in my photos. It feels strange (no stranger than dressing as a women, I hear you say). But since all but one of my teeth are now presentable, then ok. And here are the pictures to prove it (not sure I'm too keen on the shape of the hip pads, although I don't mind them showing as the skirt rides up):

Only one interaction: my partner had asked me to pick up croissants on the way back. And if I was ever foolish enough to harbour thoughts of passing as a woman, the looooong fixed stare from the lady in the Baeckerei dispelled all doubt. I can't wait to see if she recognizes me next time I'm there.

As for my sore feet afterwards, my partner summed it up with, (it's not easy to be beautiful).

Sounds like a wonderful morning. Passing is so over rated, few can actually pull it off. When I have to speak it's over if I wasn't clocked before, but it's still great to get out and about. You look great.

A great morning.
Ignore those saying SMILE that used to bug me when they said that to Sherlyn.
Just be you……that is the point of it all.

Mini, Good on getting out and enjoying yourself, smiling is way overrated, you look great!

Mini, Sounds like a wonderful morning. I find it hard to smile as well.

Nice going Mini. That is a cool look you put together. Just remember, some may stare , but others will give us praise for being bold enough to be who we are : )

Thank you ladies. Yes, crossdressers.com lesson #1 is passing isn't necessary. But coming to terms with that realization is. Glad you like the look Sandi. It's surprising how few clothes one needs, if chosen to be complimentary, to be able never to repeat the same combination. That said, I do have quite a lot of stuff now; certainly more than I have for being my normal bloke self. I've had a lot of help from my better half though. Many of the items I have,I'd never have thought of or found, had I been shopping for myself. Things like blouses, tops, jewelry and jackets, for example.

Hope it's not too many pictures but, I have a bunch more:
