Pink Fog Triggers

[jessicabf]

Hey girls! My SO were debating what triggers Pink Fog. What do you all think? Seeing something? Emotional states? What makes you just disappear into your fem self??

[Aka_Donna]

Sometimes a visual clue, oh that really looks very very nice. I wonder what it would look like on me. But mostly emotional state of being overwhelmed.

[Stephanie47]

The building up of stress that needs to be relieved: total escapism.

[Debs]

waking up in a morning !!!

[danniUK]

I think for me the biggest trigger is seeing a cute item of clothing and wondering what it'd look like on me.
Though to be honest, most mornings I wake up and my first thought is whether or not it's a practical day to dress up.

[Kris Burton]

Browsing online -and I usually succumb!

[Connie D50]

First emotional states, and also seeing something extremely feminine. Great question

[Marketa]

Just like Danni: seeing some especially nice piece of clothing in a shop, especially when I'm en femme. Then I have to go and try it and I think of nothing else. Happened to me today again :)

[Cheryl T]

Waking up does it for me.
I'm dressed most days so I suppose I don't clear the Fog very often.
Practically anything can make my thoughts wander. What is Vanna wearing tonight? That's a cute top that lady has on, do I have anything to go with it? Love her shoes, wonder where she got them?
Doesn't take much.

[Erin Lafleur]

Yes, put me in with the waking up crowd.
One of my favourite things to do is have my morning coffee in my bra, panties, nightie,gown and cute fuzzy slippers.
I have a closet full of nighties, gowns, satin kimonos etc and love to mix and match.
Great way to start every day for this gal!

[Stephanie Michelle]

I will go to Goodwill and browse. I there is something that I like that fits I will buy it. I have walked out of there sometimes with 6-7 items for under $50. Some of it is brand new with tags.

[NjJamie]

Honestly there are many, too many, but the really big trigger is a sale at JCP or Macy's, end of story!

[NancySue]

I think the Pink Fog is always with me. I, too am dressed most of the time, but when it seems to especially manifest itself is after I work out, a shower. It?s so relaxing and comfortable to slip on hose, etc. It?s fun to browse Amazon, Macys?s, Her Room.

[docrobbysherry]

I switched to pink tites. I find them MUCH EASIER to manage!:tongueout

[Amanda James]

Every time I open my e-mail and see a message from SHEIN or Temu, the next thing I know I'm lost in the pink fog. btw The two week shipping is torture:)

[DTelia]

For me, simply a beautiful woman who knows how to present herself. Who has the right amount of femininity without even trying. I dont like overdone girly girl stuff. My wife knows this…it’s not a porn thing or anything like that. But if a girl is striking (especially fashioned in a way that I would like)…hook line and sinker…Im toast.

[RoseReve]

Hello,
did you say "pink fog"?
My way of life!
Cheers
Rose :rose2:
(also means "pink" in French!!!)

[steffigirl37]

Stress is definitely a factor. Looking at dresses and feminine clothes will put me in a fog. We have several weddings coming up soon including my daughter. Lots of talk about dresses, shoes, makeup and everything else. My wife knows what it does to me and will tease me on occasion.

NjJamie is right about JCP. They have some gorgeous clothes. Bought two dresses this month.

[alwayshave]

For me it is visual or tactile. I see a pretty woman or touch satin or lace.

[JulieC]

In addition to all the triggers noted above, one for me is going too long without dressing. Generally speaking, the longer it is the more intense the desire to crossdress is, or the more intense a trigger will become. I'm about to face a three week span when I won't be able to dress at all. I'm sure that towards the end of it, if I see a well dressed woman in a dress, heels, hose, etc. I'm going to just about lose it. The pink fog will be intense.

[Verity]

Yes, put me in with the waking up crowd.
One of my favourite things to do is have my morning coffee in my bra, panties, nightie,gown and cute fuzzy slippers.
I have a closet full of nighties, gowns, satin kimonos etc and love to mix and match.
Great way to start every day for this gal!

Erin, that sounds like a fantastic way to start the day! For me. It’s most of these. Sometimes it?s waking up in a femme mood, definitely when I see something really pretty, on a woman or shopping in person or often online and I am hooked. Also if it?s been a while, the desire builds and my thoughts are overcome until I can relax into my pretty things and feel free and me.

[jessicabf]

These are all great! I figure both the straight forward ones about seeing some lace peeking. Or feeling a soft skirt or shirt. But also acceptance. Complete acceptance by a loved one for who I am? that really puts me solidly in that pink fog. 😋

[SophiaRose]

Dressing is pretty much always on my mind but when my wife tells me she?s going out of town for a few days to see family the fog rolls in as a massive wave. The anticipation is like being a kid with Christmas a few days away.

[Fiona_44]

Jessica,

It's waking up for me also. When I wake up I am usually in my bra with forms and panty, sometimes with a short chiffon nightie over that in the cooler weather. Upon awakening, the weight of the forms on my chest gives me such a comforting feeling and always starts the pink fog. Great way to start one's day.

[Maria 60]

Most of the time the escape stress of our male self. But usually the site of a women dressed the way you want to dress and feel what she is feeling.

[abby054]

When opportunity to dress presents itself, such as my wife goes for a week to see our daughter or I go on a business trip or a Friday afternoon comes to pass.

Why Friday? Because I can get off work a couple hours early most Fridays, go to my storage locker where Abby stores her finery, dress in a few outfits, and my wife will not expect me home until the usual hour.

[Jasmine23]

It's pretty much always on my mind, somewhere in the background, but, seeing a well dressed woman and wondering how her outfit would look and feel on me, plus heels, a cute pair of heels, those are my main triggers.

[Debbie Denier]

Another that subscribes to the stress relief and escapism theory. Seeing a woman dressed at a special occasion such as a wedding fires the trigger every time.

[Veronica Lacey]

When I'm feeling internally imbalanced I seek grounding. When I've been denied some time to enjoy this part of myself - the part that enjoys wearing what my mood wants to wear - then I tend to think of skirts and blouses and such when I have a spare moment. I suspect that if I were to wear only my femme wardrobe for days on end (wishful thinking) I'd feel the need to wear my male jeans and t-shirts with hiking boots for a while to balance out the constant heels, dresses and lingerie. Come to think of it I'd like the opportunity to challenge that theory one day.

[Evelyn37]

It?s definitely a stress reliever and is often triggered by seeing a stylishly dressed woman or seeing a lingerie ad.

[Sabine7]

I don't have any trigger. Pink Fog surrounds me all the time. It's one day thicker, other one thinner. Basically, if unattended I used to switch into en-femme mode immediately.

[Danielle_cder]

Any time I see a woman with big breasts will typically get me going

[Staci]

Seeing a nice pair of heels or a pretty outfit on someone else will do it. Lately though it has almost all been triggered by stress. When dressed I can just leave the stress in my other world and relax.

[Sabine7]

Any time I see a woman with big breasts I am jealous. It's not fair! Why not me? The fog becomes even thicker.

[Celee]

For me the pink fog starts to roll in if I see a feminine woman. She could be wearing shorts and a t shirt. Sometimes it happens when watching the morning news seeing the beautiful dresses the anchors are wearing. If my wife says she?s leaving and I have free time that day then its all over for Celee.

[Jane G]

A better question might be what breaks the spell. Most of the time I am in the fog.

[Susan_Michaela]

I think any more what had really set me off more with the pink fog is actually having your own breasts instead of silicone ones. I still have my original ones 3 pair one oval one teardrop and a pair of round ones. I haven?t taken hrt meds and my doctors won?t allow me to take them. In April of 2023 I had open heart surgery and meds they have me on they say it would increase my blood pressure too much if I took hrt drugs. I also had to have a mammogram last year after discovering a few lumps but just turns out it?s just cysts so no worry about cancer but the doctor I saw she said I do have Gynecomastia and they started growing on their own later in life. I?m a 38C cup and the weight is just like when I used to wear the silicone ones. That?s one of the main things that really get me into the fog plus you can?t take them off like the others and being skinny pronounces them even more.

[Nikkilovesdresses]

Interesting that so many of you are triggered by the sight of a woman, or certain parts of her anatomy.

For me it seems to spring spontaneously from deep inside. I'll be doing anything, maybe just walking from one room to another, and I'll feel this wave wash over me, and if it's feasible I'll go straight upstairs to my stash.

I say stash... it's now several large storage boxes and 4 large drawers...

[BrendaPDX]

I don't honestly know, I have read what others here have said sometimes some of those yes but... It just hits me.

[Traci H]

I have been following this thread trying to put my finger on things that trigger my fog. It seems to me it?s always there swirling around me in various degrees. Walking by a lingerie department and seeing the lovely garments can certainly do it. But today while standing in line for entrance to an outdoor event, I noticed a woman behind me, in her forties with beautifully simple makeup and perfect lipstick. The pinkish red lipstick looked so good. I immediately wanted to go get that color and put it on. The pink fog has thickened!!

[@tammileetilliso]

Seeing or being around other beautiful crossdressers.

[SophiaRose]

A major trigger when I was younger: The old Calgon "Before you slide on those hose, caress before you dress" commercial. - Lol

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Jessica :hugs:, Being on thid forum and seeing so many lovely Ladies, >Orchid**O:daydreaming:O**

[Abbycd41]

For me I can’t completely place what triggers it but I think seeing some kind of clothes or heels is what sets it off.

[Mercedes]

As someone currently in the mist (prettier than fog) I wish I knew as I would seek it out. But also, the more it is part of my regular routine the less I feel overwhelmed by an immediate desire.

[April Rose]

I agree, Mercedes! The more it is part of my daily life the less overwhelming it feels.

[Shelli]

I recently found myself in the fog as my girlfriend was joyfully showing me some nice clothes she found at a thrift store (for herself). I was so happy that she would take the time to share them with me so enthusiastically--and me enjoying every moment of that. Sharing a truly feminine moment together made the fog roll on in. I hope that one day we can have that same conversation but switch places.

[Aroara Xanthemae]

I get the pink fog when I see a beautiful women dressed like I like to dress or when I see something pink or panties or a beautiful dress or when??

[jessicabf]

It hasn?t happened a lot, but over my life I have had a few women mention that they thought it was pretty (not when fem). That has been a major trigger each time.

[krissy]

When i see a woman in a killer outfit i want to feel it on me:daydreaming:

[gwencd158]

Weddings, Halloween, gym girls, and back in the day, cute outfits on working girls. (80s on Wall Street - oh the high heels and sexy outfits)

[Wendy James]

In the past I would go in and out of the fog, sometimes dressing every day or night and then going for weeks at time with nothing. Now I think I am so deep into the fog it feels like a blizzard. It is always on my mind. When I wake up one of the first things I think is what am I going to wear today. When I am at my computer and I go online for something and an ad comes up I need to click it, those little notifications in my texts from different stores about specials and upcoming sales, seeing a nicely dressed woman wanting to ask her where she got her outfit. Pretty much anything triggers me lately and with a poor attention span (what they call ADHD) today I am always being distacted and even when I am underdressing at work while I am having a conversation with someone, in the back of my head I am thinking about what I am wearing. Not sure where it leads, but for now it is fun to live with it always on my mind.

[nalasirder]

It's almost always there. It's definitely related to stress for me. My job is tough and my wife has health concerns. Whenever one of those flairs, I get the urge to put on a dress and paint my nails in silence or take a long hot shower or stretching my body It's not necessarily always about dressing but doing any type of "feminine" self care.

[Stacy Darling]

OMG
What triggers an Adorable Crossdresser?????

[Bea_]

The pinkness and thickness of the fog varies, but basically waking up in the morning triggers it.

[Sabine7]

I have been living in a permanent thick ping fog for last 2-3 years. I have no triggers. It's the opposite, there are multiple external factors that enforce keeping my femininity hidden deep inside.
