[SIZE="2"]A simple question: What’s in your closet? What is your closet like, if you have one, or do you have a “closet” of the mind? Is your femme stuff nearby, where you can touch it, or is it stashed away where nobody can find it? A closet doesn’t really have to be a closet, you know. Maybe you’re hoping to get your own closet (for HER) someday...
Anyway, I have a closet of femme clothes and accessories in my bedroom, just a few feet from where I sleep (and dream). My male clothes are highly visible, of course, displaced by the finer things I keep just out of sight IN the closet. I have a modest collection of pretty skirts and dresses on one side, plus a bunch of equally pretty blouses and sweaters on the other side. Between these two areas is a sturdy rack for cute shoes, wigs, and the like. I have a full-length mirror affixed to the closet door, and plenty of room in my bedroom to twirl around whilst dressed...
I also have a large bureau full of femme goodies – all kinds of hosiery, underwear (panties galore), my earrings and hair adornments, not to mention breast forms and other unmentionables. More cute sweaters are neatly folded in drawers, ready to go at a moment’s notice. Across the hall I have a fairly large bathroom with plenty of mirrors and excellent lighting for makeup application. I have the luxury of keeping my makeup in a nearby cabinet, right out in the open, but my sister respects my personal space religiously and never noses around. In short, I’m very lucky to have this freedom to keep my femme clothes and accoutrements near and dear at all times – it just worked out well, and I took advantage of an already advantageous situation...
I have a lot of closets in this house, in fact my studio used to be a master bedroom – it has a walk-in “dressing area,” with another closet at the far end, but I keep my art supplies there. For some reason I feel better in the middle of the house, in a more intimately-sized room, a place where I can dress up and play as a girl to my heart’s content. Like I say, I’m very lucky (in terms of a situation where crossdressing can flourish) – I have no spouse, no SO, and no children, so I can dress-up easily and often. Also, nobody ever visits us, so I have no need to hide anything! My sister comes upstairs on occasion, but Freddy is out of sight (literally) – I keep everything in the closet...
So, tell me what’s in YOUR closet. I’m not asking if YOU’RE in the closet – that’s another discussion entirely...
PS – Come to think of it, I also keep my voluminous diary in the aforementioned closet, and its chock full of my CD adventures past and present. Good thing it’s completely illegible, eh?
