    How much dressing is good for you?

    Well,

    Today is the 3rd day in a row I am fully dressed. I also plan on tomorrow to dress all day.

    I am no longer getting surprised by the image I see in the mirror as I walk past. It is becoming normal.

    I am worried that my first inclination to put on clothes in the morning is my girl stuff. It is normal for me.

    I think the fact that I have breasts now and no longer need forms is pushing me in that direction. Yikes.

    Natalie,

    That is cool as long as your wife does not have a problem with it. I could never do that.

    Has her stance become more tolerant over time ?

    For a while I would go 4-6 months between. I don?t know why, just dressed when the urge was strong enough. For two + months now , nearly every day. If it was all day, I don?t know where that would lead. It?s generally 2ish hours a day , this morning it was a mini and a dressy T with heels of course. It will be a tough day giving up the heels.

    Before I got married a couple months ago, I dressed most days. Although I do not go out except on drives in late night winter time. The wife knows but is still on the fence about seeing me dressed.

    About my wearing of dresses: I wear them ALL THE TIME. The last time I wore trousers was to my mother's funeral in 2024 late September. I wear dresses to go shopping, to church, to my local amateur radio club, etc.

    Every day. Working toward 24/7. Note my signature.
    What do I do on days when I don't crossdress? I have no idea.

    I am generally dressed from between 5 p.m. & 8 p.m. until between 8 a.m. & 10 a.m. the next morning. That's between 12 and 17 hours each day/night. My dressing in bed always includes bra, forms, and a nightie. I also enjoy wearing thigh highs to bed and do so most nights. I've been doing this every night since January 1, 2022. I start the evening in a dress and change to a nightie between midnight and 1 a.m. In the morning, I will put a dress on if I plan to stay dressed for more than 30 minutes or so. Breakfast in a dress is always a pleasure.
    It's never too late to enjoy a happy childhood.
    Live each day as though it's your last 'cause one day you'll be right.
    I'm finding the more feminine side of me...and I ❤️ this adventure.

    I dress every night now, and have for the last 6 months. Like Heather, for bed that's bra, forms, and nightgown with some form of hosiery. That's usually pantyhose, but lately I've been enjoying a garter belt I recently acquired and stockings.

    Outside of bed, time is usually limited. I try to dress as often as I can, but it's difficult to find time.

    I'm so sorry, Natalie.

    But, if u keep this up u won't be allowed to call yourself a CD!
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    I dress mostly weekdays in the mornings from
    7 am to 11 am. I Do my shopping and run my
    errands.

    The rest of the day and weekends I'm my
    wife's husband.

    She's OK with that.

    Natalie, to answer your question, I would have to experience unlimited opportunity. As it is, in total DADT, I can sleep in bra/forms, nightgown (seperate rooms) enjoy the same with coffee and email in the morning and then make my way to the playhouse for dresses, heels, makeup, etc. before she wakes @9am. Sometimes even a bit of adventure out and about in the early morning. Having staycations by myself I've gotten the 24/7 experience.
    I've waited so long for this time. Makeup is so frustrating. Shaking hands and I look so old. This was a mistake.
    My new maid's outfit is cute. Sure fits tight.
    And then I step into the bedroom and in the mirror, I see a beautiful woman looking back at me.
    Smile, Honey! You look fabulous!

    Great going Natalie! I dress every day, mostly all day, but on days like today when I expect a handyman round to do some work in my house and garage, I temper it a bit. I am wearing femme undies, femme denim shorts and a unisex teeshirt. I did start with a white sports bra under the teeshirt, but it was visible, so I removed it. I try to make my everyday, public appearances as "normal" as they can be while wearing as much femme clothes as I can without drawing attention to myself. Being widowed and living alone has its advantages.

    As mentioned numerous times my wife and I sleep apart for medical and comfort reasons. That affords me the ability to sleep in a bra and panty and a nightie. Sometimes I also wear a below the knee full slip under the nightie. She is also a late riser so my femme time usually extends to 10:00 AM. Today I am pecking away in a white bra and panty set under a salmon color ankle length Shadowline nightgown. Before my wife retired I was able to be en femme every workday from 8:39 AM to 3:30 PM. When she took a trip out of state for seven to ten days it was 24/7. I miss those days.

    Throttle back? Not. I dress every day. Another perk of retirement. It?s pretty much automatic. I?m not quite a b cup, close, but I so enjoy wearing forms. I?ve recently discovered front clip bras, Glamorize, and love ?em. Go for it.

    What works for one person may not work for another.
    There are so many variables. For those that are totally in hiding, they may only get
    once a year. For others that are fully out, they may dress every day.
    So whatever works for your life, That is best.

    For me, When I had COVID (twice) I dresses 24/7 the whole time I was home.
    2 weeks the first time and 1 week the second time. I found after the 2 week stint
    that I was starting to feel that Raychel was taking over. It may have been the isolation that was getting to me.
    But I did fully enjoy that time. the second time, I also dressed 24/7, That was so perfect.
    If society accepted my style of dressing. I fear I would end up dressing 24/7 pretty near all the time.
    Of course when Guy things needed to be done. House repairs ect, Then the guy side would protest and show up.
    Now I dress every day when Having morning coffee, then after the day is done I will dress again.
    So I get to enjoy my true style 5 to 7 hours a day. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
    It seems to be enough to get me thru the days.
    my sister's reply when I told her how I prefer to dress

    "Everyone has there thing, all that matters is that you are happy, love what you do and who you do it with"
