After the recent post on "what if you won the lottery?" my behaviour today might make some people wonder.
I'm on a fixed income due to a disability but today I got a cheque for the equivalent of 6 months pay. So I went to a department store and got (drum roll) a coat! A women's coat, of course, specifically a knee-length black wool hoody.
Now I've been rebuilding after my first and only major purge - I've been at it less than 6 months. At present I have plenty of makeup (my specialty), one bra, 2 blouses (only one of which fits), 3 pairs of shoes (one, pre-purge, being very nice but too small), 4 pairs of panties (I didn't bother to purge my panties - but I only wear them en femme) and two old purses, too nice to throw out.
You can see there's plenty of room for acquisitions. And I start with a coat. OK, I also got another bra but that's because the one I got in August now fits like a tent - I've been losing weight (I am VERY pleased with my new bra!). But in my previous crossdressing live the lack of a passable coat really limited me, since I live in Canada. I SO want to go out! I'd love to crosslive, at least part-time. Hard to do that with jackets your Dad bought you that are as mannish as possible!
Since I have lost weight, I got a few "boy" items too - 2 Prodige thongs, 1 Prodige bikini (I mention the brand because I recommend it - Prodige stuff doesn't have the horrible heavy waistband that gets used with other brands to make them look more "masculine" (blecch!)) and a t-shirt - everything a size smaller.
I plan on a *major* shopping spree once I get close to my goal weight, which should be by Canada Day (July 1).
