Hello dear girls,

I haven't posted for some years, not sure how many, but I see that I joined the forum 10 years ago, so happy anniversary me.

2 events bring me here today.

1, my doctor put me on a diet because of high blood pressure. It worked, I lost 15kg, around 35lbs. This means I can wear loads of clothes, both male and female, that I couldn't for a long time. Pink mist has descended.

2, my wife has been away for 3 months nursing her elderly father, so I've been able to dress just as I like every day.

It's been a whirlwind of new dresses and skirts, corsets, and lingerie. One knee-length skirt, bright pink cotton with spaghetti straps, just looked and felt wrong. So I cut 15cm, 6", off the bottom so it now sits on my upper thighs - and I love it. Still summer here, so I can waft around the house, and parts of the yard, with the loveliest feeling of airy freedom.

Best wishes to you all,

Nikki

Hello Nikki,
thanks for you wishes, I'm happy to meet you, happy anniversary to you :)
I started my journey 10 years ago also, but I joined this forum very recently.
Yes losing weight is wonderful news for those you like nice clothes ! And to fit into them !
And yes these moments of clothing craze are wonderful :heehee:
I'm feeling like I'm entering a new one nowadays...But trying to go slowly ! There have been some highly avoidable purchases in my past...
All the best in the lingerie department,
Rose
