Has anyone gone a full day dressed?

[PrettyFlowingGown]

I've acomplished everything else as a CD, but I've never gone a full day wearing ladies clothes. I'd love to do it, but I'd have to pick the quietest day to do it, like boxing day or something, when everyones away. I'd have no reason to go out too.....I have 2 lady friends who know and accept me, and a TS friend too, they could come around and say "hi", have a cofee, and I'd be in my dresses, etc. I'd love to do it. I only dress at night from 8.30 onwards when its dark, and in the mornings till 9.00, maybe....
Its just I have a sticky-nose neighbour next door who cant mind his own buisness. There will come a day, I can do this.

[Karren H]

Three straight days out enfemme is my max to date.... Was a hoot....

[Rochelle Exploration]

I have done it before but like you only inside. I'm also eager to be able to share with soemone other than the dog. Though he seems to enjoy it....lol. I think it's because I'm calmer and more at peace whe dressed and he feels that. My next goal is to go ahead and take those steps to walking out the front door.

[SusanMarie]

Any number of weekends is my best so far.

Keep working at it and you will develop opportunities to dress more often and longer. You'll see.

[Nicki B]

Try going somewhere other than at home, to start? Cities are good for anonymity, try booking a weekend break somewhere within a reasonable distance where is a support group, so you can go out with other people? :)

[TommiTN]

I spent the better part of 3 weeks en femme several years ago. I was house sitting and had enough supplies to last me without having to go out. It was a blast but I had a seriously hard time getting back into male mode at the end of it.:daydreaming:

[avril findlay]

When I was a child I used to spend the school holidays (7 weeks) with my Grandmother dressed as a girl, but I don't really think that counts. The longest I've spent completely CDd as an adult is a fortnight, again on holiday, which was wonderful.

[Jill]

I'm with you, this is something that I have been wanting to do for awhile but unfortunately I suffer from an affliction called room mates. So I think about a day when I might be able to afford my own place and dress for a full 24 hours.

I've already got it planned out. I would pick a couple of days without any obligations or engagements. On the first day I would spend the morning taking care of things, go to the gym and so on and by 3 or 4 in the afternoon, I am home, dressed. I would sleep in a camisole and a nice comfortable, soft pair of pantyhose and stay dressed all through the next day till 3 or 4 at night and then head out if I have plans.

If only I had my own place... *sigh*

The longest I have previously spent is about 12 hours, house sitting.

[Lesley Ann]

I guess, reading the other replies, I'm rather lucky. I live alone, my SO lives in the same appartment block and she is the most fantastic support. I am retired, and apart from some social commitments, my time is my own so most days and nights I am Lesley. I also have a nosey neighboro who I have to watch out for when I occasionally go out enfemme (I am still not 100% comfortable out and about) and my Daughters always let me know when they are comming to visit, which gives me time to 'tidy' up, like removing all my make-up from the bathroom, putting away the odd pair of stockings I am sure you get the picture (I used to be quite tidy as Graham, but I am afraid Lesley is a bit of a **** when it comes to keeping her bedroom straight!).
I never thought I could be this contented, sometimes I have to reasure myself it's not a dream.

[MarciManseau]

Over 7 years full time, and about 95% femme for like the previous 5 years. I love being a girl!!!!!


Hugs, Marci :hugs:

[Kendra (Tx)]

At a previous place of employment where I was able to have regular vacations ( Vacations??? What's that??? ) I would be able to take 10 days twice a year and basically was Kendra 24/7 during that time...:c9: Talk about not wanting to "go back"...Nearly kicking and screaming to get me out of a skirt and blouse to put on my ratty jeans and shirt and "Red Wings"...:cry: to go to the airport and back to ( what passes for ) "real life"..

[sherib]

I'm jealous, I would love to go a full day dressed. I just can't too many people in the family rely on me, and they are in and out of the house all the time.

[marie354]

I've been 24/7 for almost 1.5 year now and it's still great!

You may not be ready for that... Yet... Or never.
Don't sweat it. There are always dreams. and... Dreams can't harm you. (Well shrinks may say different... Mine did.)

You shouldn't worry much, just be yourself, and be at your own level.
If you want to progress to another level, you'll do it eventually.
I spent 50 years in the closet before I came out.
Just remember... There is time... Always time to do what you want.

[Ronni Seymour]

Several times a month I get out on some shopping trips for the day, in another town of course. Hate for the day to end.:sad:

[TerriM]

Once a year for the last 9 or 10 yrs I have gone to Provincetown Mass during the fantasia fair. The last few years I have driven up dressed and stayed that way for the 4 days Im there. It is such a great feeling. Each year I have to ready myself mentally for the change back to my male mode. The first year I did it I was in a a depression for a few weeks when I returned. It is hard for me to dress at home. Getting away is a dream that I look forward to each year.

[Alice Torn]

Just one day, in August 2005, when i went in a fog, the day after a cop pulled me over! I drove to five townsm and strutted my stuff, got shouts from cars, catcalls, a lot of motorists looks, and an embarressing time, jumping a family's car battery. Stuck in freeway backups, got looks, too. Was out, about 12 hours. Haven't tried it since. Too many times, i run into people who know me!

[Rachel Morley]

The longest time I have stayed completely en femme 24/7 was 6 straight days. It happened during the summer of last year when my step son went away on vacation to visit his Dad. That left just me and my wife at home alone.

She said to me "hey you could be en femme when he’s away" … and I half jokingly said "yeah, and for the whole six days” …. and she said "sure, why not? Lets find out just exactly how much you really like crossdressing!". In those days if I had spent a long time in high heels and a tight waist cincher I wanted to change back at the end of the night.

Anyway, needless to say I love crossdressing and enjoyed my "femme week". These days, no matter how long I spend in high heels, skirts and waist cinchers I never want to change back! :)

[Ronni Seymour]

The first year I did it I was in a a depression for a few weeks when I returned.

Awww. That's sad.:sad:

[StayceeCD]

Three straight days out enfemme is my max to date.... Was a hoot....

Same for me Karen. 3 whole days. Day and night as Staycee out and about while at Beauty and the Beach out and about in Rehoboth Beach Delaware. What an amazing experience! :daydreaming:

[Marjory]

Week in Canada back in "68"... the good old days!!

[Ashlie Marie]

hmm well lets see completely as Ashlie I would say 5 days strait was the max. MY wife and I went on a little trip to Niagara and we went as girlfriends without our husbands it was great. But since I dress mostly for work when I have the energy llol and all my hang around the house stuff are girls stuff I guess I dress more than I think lol . The only thing I find hard about it is sometimes if I dress at work then we are going clubbing at night it is funny to see me go from work lady to club chic.. its funny

[zoii]

I did a friend's wedding, I was dressed from about 9:45 in the morning, until sometime around 3am. Grand, my little cousin wants me to wear a dress to her wedding, can't wait!

[Cari]

I planned five once but didnt make it and took about a 8 hour break and ran around in drab on the 3rd or 4th day.

Mentally I just needed the break. Physically I was shaving twice a day and wearing all the makeup so my face just needed the break as well.

Cari

[Taffy]

I've gone three days dressed all day long, but that was a Camp.

[beenherelongtime]

living alone quite often, and having an understanding so, i had many chances to dress all day.

[ErikaLeigh]

Several full days, but just one at a time, tons of half days. I wish I could go a whole week. :)

[Sally2005]

Only on a couple occasions in my life have I been able to do 1-2 days. Having been scared and worried about neighbors in the past I stayed in...doing that required some preparation to make sure I had everything available....movie to watch, food, no planned visitors...etc. In the last year being careful to avoid neighbors, I had fun doing a couple days including going out. It was fun, but limited because you are always checking for neighbors and visitors. The best way to have total freedom, would be to show up 100% enfem and rent a cabin or camper and live as a woman the entire time.

The very first time I tried a day or more, it was mentally tiring... however, with more experience and confidence, it becomes more refreshing and you don't feel like going back...

[vivianann]

I went 23 days strait last month. It was not easy going back to male mode.

[Suzy Harrison]

The longest I've been so far is 10 days non stop when I was in the US. Didn't stay in either, out to shops and restuarants, clubs etc - ..

But ask lovely MJ - I think she's done the last 4 years non stop :heehee:

In June next year all of my male clothes will go forever and soon after everything male I was born with will go forever too - then I can really go 24/7/52/365 or whatever...:)

[CD Susan]

Going an entire day dressed is a common thing for me. I live alone and am retired so I am able to cd as often as I want. I routinely go up to two weeks without wearing any of 'his' clothes.

[faltenrock]

I can't really count the days I went out all day, it must have been at least 30 days by now, perhaps 50. I've also had two or three days in a row too, that was great. Once I went into a restaurant in the evening, it was a hotel and I needed a room for the night anyway. After dinner, I just checked in en femme and had breakfast en femme too. No problem. I found out, that, after a long day, especially after a few days, I wanted to dress back into my male clothes.

[DanaR]

If you ever have a chance to go to a transgender convention, you'll have an opportunity to dress for as long as the event lasts.

In the 13 years that I went to Esprit, in Port Angeles WA, I would usually drive up dressed; stay that way all week and drive home dressed. Going back to work the next week was always weird.

[Tracii G]

One week end solid is my record.I have nosey neighbors too but I don't care what they see.

[deja true]

There are about 2 dozen of us from this site that attended the SCC (Southern Comfort Conference in Atlanta a few months ago (feels like years ago *sigh*) who were dressed for the entire 5 days. In fact, of all those, I only saw two eventually in Bob mode at the end of the conference. We went to restaurants, shopping, clubs...

Search for threads about SCC or Chicago's BeAll or Fantasy Fair or any number of other conferences or weeks en femme to read about our stories.

If you feel the need to dress for a few days at a time, this is the best, safest, most enlightening way to do it. But like a few have already said, the 'withdrawal' of having to return to 'real life' is sometimes a real downer.

I was lucky enough to spend a week dressed before the conference with good friends, too, so except for a half day of flying as 'what's-his-name', I've got a 'two-week' merit badge'! LOL!

It's a lot of work, what with the constant shaving and makeup and choosing outfits, but far and away, the very best experience ev-ar! :) I'm still thrilled with the memories and dreams!

:D

[jules3367]

Hiya,

I spent 3 whole days and 2 nites femme this year at an annual tg celebration here in the uk called 'sparkle' held in manchester

It was my very first time 'out the front door', driving in heels, and socialising as a female, i was shell-shocked but loving every minute - it's only taken me 30+ years to get that far :'-(

So morale of the story - chill out and go enjoy !

[DAVIDA]

I stay dressed pretty much all the time, if I am at home. The longest time dressed away from home was at last years Southern Comfort, four days. Like Deja said, it is a lot of work, but you will never forget the time.

Southern Comfort and Be-all are great opportunities to dress for extended periods. They are also just a plain ol' good time.

[Jennifer Devine]

In february i will have 3 days en femme as my parents are going away from friday-monday!!! :GD:
I've got to get some new clothes before then!! :daydreaming:

Jen xxxxx

[jillleanne]

I'm on winter vacation for the next 3 months with my gg and have been 24/7 going on 5 days now as of today with my gg's blessings. As much fun as it is, it does have its drawbacks, need I say the horrible word, 'hair'. Picky and requires daily removal to get rid of the pickyness. Otherwise, it's pure bliss. I do however, try to blend with the public as much as I hate that. However, when Sunday rolls around, halleluyah!!!!! Dress up day!!! No one gives it a second thought when you walk into stores dressed to the 'nines' as they just figure you came from church. Sunday is THE day to go crazy hot!!!
Hugs, Jill

[VERONICARH]

I usually get to dress fully only from 7:00 am till 1:00 pm. Usually only a few times a year, and today is one of them. Boy does it feel super. I wish I could do it more often. I usually can dress a couple times a week, but without make-up on and wig on.

[Samantha Kelsey]

I have many full days dressed, last week end my SO and me drove from Northern France down to Sothern Spain. I was fully en femme. I guess I got read a few times bt no problems. It was great. Since arriving home I have worn only my female clothes so that makes it four days now.
I wish you could all try it.

Its just I have a sticky-nose neighbor next door who cant mind his own business. There will come a day, I can do this.

If you haven't been out a full day, then your wearing the wrong clothes! To begin, go to JCP or your favorite retailer and purchase a nice pair of side zip slacks in your size (black). Not ready for side zip and no pockets?, get a pair of "regular" ladies slacks (then you'll have the needed pockets). Now go find a nice pullover blouse or sweater (this time of year is great for androgynous styles) in a darker color (blacks, greens, blues, even dark purples are not a problem). Now head down the mall to Payless Shoes and purchase a pair of loafers called "Believe" (what I wear everyday). Now, don your under-dressings (Hanes barely there bra, a sports bra or cami work best for me) including black tights or trouser socks, and live!! Your crossdressed skin out and head to toe and not a single person will notice you...unless they complement you on looking nice today....(this is how I try to dress everyday)

What I'm saying here is you don't need to wear your makeup and do your hair to enjoy a day/week/month/year crossdressed. Not ready to CD for work? Head to walmart or again your favorite retailer for a pair of ladies jeans, t -shirt and back to Payless for a pair of tennis shoes in almost any style - but make sure they're womans - go with a traditional white or black - except my everyday Champion sneakers are white with blue stripes - and yes they have them with pink stripes so you can say the blue ones are "guys" if needed...

To say all this in a very long post, you can crossdress 24/7 and no one will notice (or care) so long as you look "normal". This is not to say you can't push the envelope on occasion. We had several really cold days a couple of weeks ago here in Denver. Since I was going to be wearing a coat all day while out, I wore on one day my white shear blouse with bow'ed sleeves - see my post on the black bra being out of fashion under white in the clothes folder - with my black side zip slacks and calf boots (yeah the calf boots were pushing it a bit with a 2" heel). The next day I went back to semi-normal and wore my kaki tan slacks and lavender mock turtle neck sweater with my brown demi-boots - and just a wind breaker (zipped up).

Don't have the ovaries to go shopping in person yet? Order it all via internet/ mail order and have it delivered. Whatever the case, put on some clothes (of the opposite sex) and go enjoy life girl!!!

[Christie ann]

Jennifer, Great advice. I wear woman's jeans (sorry Karren), woman's shirt, under-dressed, mascara, lip color and no one seems to notice.

[Josephine 1941]

HI , Pretty, Well you are going to hate me, I have a GG that loves me as a women. She in fact has told me to dress every day. Before that we have spent a wk in P town in Mass. twice and three time in Key West Fl. She an I are the same size in cloths and shoes 10 1/2 . We buy cloths 14 / 16 together and wear one anothers all the time. I am sitting hear writing to you in a very nice sun dress light green with a very pretty white flower all threw it. It has slits up the side and is very confortable. Yesterday I had to shave all my hair from my chest and under arms, used veet on my legs. you have to shave after wards too. She told me that this morning that I had done my eye brows very good and this was the best I had done them. I shop for my self and bought a light brown eye brow liner . A day is nothing what until you go more and are able to sleep in a nice silky night gown with your boobs . I love it. :brolleyes::D:brolleyes::D:c9::jumping: :brolleyes::hf::doll::bye:

[mollytyler]

luckily.....last 2 1/2 yrs been 24/7...........

[docrobbysherry]

I usually dress with a corset. After a couple of hours max, it MUST come off! :doh: And so nearly everything comes off at the same time.

Recently, I have been experimenting with tite girdles instead of corsets. There have been a couple of times where I kept everything on all day and some things over nite! Then, it all HAS TO come off for my morning shower.:)

[sometimes_miss]

I live alone, so I can dress for as long as I want to stay indoors. So far, the max has been abour 4 days, a few years ago when I was sick during the wintertime. I get wanderlust, and simply feel like I have to get out of the house after being cooped up for any length of time. If I'm off from work, and have nothing planned, it feel nice not to have to go back to boy clothes.

[Angie G]

I went 4 full days I was at home on vacation. And loved every bit of it.:hugs:

Went completely femme from a Thursday night to Monday morning once. Went to a couple of movies, a play, an opera, a museum, shopping for groceries, books, and music, visited my therapist, met a friend, walked and sat in a park, rode buses and trains. Wore about 12 different outfits, all skirts or dresses (wearing pants en femme seems like a lost opportunity to me), always wore nail polish, make up, nylons, wig, and breast enhancers. I really enjoyed it. I did it figuring it was maybe the only time I would ever have the opportunity, and that it was the one thing I had not done. I never expected it to be so succesful -- if I was read it didn't make any difference -- and I went out again a number of times after that. Doubt if I will be able to do it again, and I don't feel the need the same way now, but it was worthwhile that time.
