Dressing at home

[Tina81]

I'm curious what others do....when I'm home alone, I'll wear heels, panties, pantyhose, skirt, breast forms/bra, blouse and bracelets. I won't bother with a wig (too uncomfortable) or make-up (to much to fuss with and to clean-up). Wearing clothes is easier to put on and take off. I'll spend a good part of the day dressed like this and really enjoy walking about the house in my heels and the feel of being dressed like a woman. There is just something about wearing women's shoes and the feel of my "girls" breastforms hanging in my bra as well as the looking at myself in the mirror. So I'm wondering if others will dress up without wig or make-up.

I have long hair so I don't need a wig but if i had makeup I would definitely wear it, I like to experience the whole thing and not hold anything back.

[Krisi]

I think if you did some research, I think you would find that most women don't wear makeup if they are not leaving the house. And of course, they wouldn't wear heels.

I do pretty much as you except I always wear the wig and butt padding and I seldom wear heels. The only makeup I wear is beard cover and lipstick unless I'm going out somewhere. I don't feel "whole" without the wig and butt padding.

[Tina81]

if I'm not wearing pumps or high heels sandals, I'll wear the slip on "mules" or clogs with 3" heels. I'm just not into flats.

[Lilly 40C]

I just wear a bra and panties plus tights in winter. My outer clothes are gender neutral just in case I have to answer the door.

[Amalie]

I usually dress full on en femme when just staying home too, including heels and wig, but a bit lighter makeup only.
I enjoy my reflection more then whenever I pass a mirror or a window at night.

[Jess S.]

Depends on time for me also, always underdress, more time more fun.

[Lori Kurtz]

For me, a wig was always essential, whether I would be going out, or just enjoying myself at home alone. Makeup was nearly always part of the picture too. Not quite as critically important, since the wig (along with my enhanced female figure and sexy clothes to show it off) was sufficient to create the right look. The makeup was more like an icing-on-the-cake thing to heighten the pleasure, but not a necessity, especially if my time was limited.

[reb.femme]

Sometimes just my satin nightie, gown and undies does it for me. Other times just a Cami and shorts under that satin gown.

If I'm dressing, I'm all the way 99% of the time. Always a wig when dressing but may leave my face free of makeup. Those days are as rare as hen's teeth or rocking horse doings...which ever you prefer.

Tina, I am very much like you in that my time is short and I love to dress. When I have the whole day, then I have the time to practice my makeup skills. Skills - not there yet.

[Barbara Jo]

I presently live alone and live as a woman at home but, I never wear makeup or heels at home.
I only wear make up when appearing en feme in public.

BTW, I'm I letting my hair grow and no longer wear wigs. Wigs have always been too uncomfortable for me.

[mdavis]

Pretty much the same here. Only I put a wig on. The most makeup I've ever tried was some lipstick. That I know I can get off quickly and completely. Typically if my wife is working a morning shift or a mid-day shift, I'll take the opportunity to dress for anywhere from 2-4 or 5 hours before I have to go to work. Even better if I have the day off! Have been able to dress for up to 6 hours a couple of times and it feels great. Those are the times when the temptation gets strong to want to venture out. Hasn't happened yet.

I never understood the use of the word 'girls' as to refer to breasts. Or 'boys' for the reference to testicles. Doesn't make any sense. That said, what we wear is most likely more about what makes us feel as if we're female. For me, that includes the long hair. And nail polish, as both are almost constantly in my field of vision, and girl style watch, bracelet, necklace and earrings (I can feel both). Make up, not so much; I can't see it, or feel it. Basically, I need the visual and tactile feedback that tells me I'm female.

For your consideration
eu·phe·mism
ˈyo͞ofəˌmizəm/
noun
noun: euphemism; plural noun: euphemisms

a mild or indirect word or expression substituted for one considered to be too harsh or blunt when referring to something unpleasant or embarrassing.

[Lauri K]

I may be the odd one here, but everyday is full makeup and styling my own natural hair. (work, home or wherever)

The only things I do not wear around the house on a daily basis are my DT pads and breast forms.

On the weekends it's full pads and forms wherever I am until it gets about 95 and humid.

It's an attempt to be "polite". It's better than "tits" and "balls".

[Jennifer in CO]

depends on what I'm doing. Like this morning...took off my gown as I got out of bed and put on a Danskin top and denim short shorts. Sitting here working and so dressed. When I go out to the barn later, I'll put on a different t shirt with a sports bra under and jeans. I don't bother with makeup...haven't for years. Daily wear is what you see in the avatar. Just plain drab fem if you will but still fem.

Back before I transitioned in 81, I came home everyday from work and changed into something fem with full makeup and curled my shoulder length hair. Wife was very happy with me being as fem as possible when not at work or with family.

Its not what your wearing, it are you comfortable wearing it...

Yep. I relate to that as my time is really short, too. Often nothing more than an hour a week. Heels and a skirt or dress, with undies and the girls gives me a short fix but nothing like enough.
Bah.

I don't always wear makeup around the house, but my hair is an important accessory.

[carhill2mn]

I always present myself totally as a woman whether I am at home or going out. It just seems right!

Well.... most women do not wear makeup (or heels) when at home alone.

[kendracd]

when home alone I still usually wear my wig, maybe a tank shorts and panties of course, make up I usually wear lipstick,still have my nails polished, Picture 308.jpg

[Jenny22]

After my get-out-of-bed rituals, I don all needed lingerie, my breast forms, outer wear of choice (no heels or wig), some jewelry and then the 'how pretty am I' mirror review as I apply my red lipstick. If I have to go out, its in drab, fully under dressed with small forms under a loose shirt. Love it!

[cdterri]

I never wear a wig or makeup, not trying to be a woman just love the clothes

[MirandaAlicia]

I usually get a couple of nights a week every other week to dress, and just for convenience and coordination I decided one night will be 'casual night' and the other night 'fancy night.' Casual night I may or may not wear makeup (if I do it's something real basic, like lip gloss and mascara) and probably something simple like jeans and a tee or long skirt (something in that direction) and flats or non-dressy wedges. Something I could see just being 'at home' or doing basic errands with. Fancy night though is always full on makeup, almost always heels or dressier wedges, invariably something that shows leg or has motion. Either way always a wig and my wedding band set and usually but not always a necklace.
