I found a great menswear shop in Pasadena that has clothes imported from Italy. The colors and the fabrics are wonderful. So far I must have spent $3000 on clothes for myself there.

When I dress up fancy in male mode, I do not call it drab. I have a black tie suit, light weight summer wear for weddings, a few bow ties, great shirts and slacks.

I never would have worn these colors and materials if I was not a crossdresser.
