Update and a question.

The question first. I have a cute new skirt and spaghetti strap camisole the issue is that I have no strapless bras. And the only ones I have (due to my broad chest) are sports bras. Would the camisole look terrible with a sports bra?

The update is cool. I am on spiro and oral estradiol!

I feel great. I almost had my first random cry moment while hanging out with a friend. We were watching funny videos and laughing very hard. I felt the sudden urge to start sobbing. Otherwise I feel pretty good. The changes are starting. I am super excited. At my boss's request/suggestion I came out at work. There are a couple of new employees that... unless they have seen the time card I grab (legal name required here...) they don't even know my birth name. And I actually have a few friends that don't know that name either!

I for one like the look of bra straps under spaghetti strap tops :)

Well what kind of cami do you mean? Some kind of normal tops they call camis in stores, I don't know why, but generally when people say camis (ya know like with lace trim) they mean really basically an undergarment and you wouldn't wear those as a top, but under one.

But with a normal spaghetti strap top it is completely normal to have bra straps showing... it would only be weird with a strapless top.

is it a plain cami, or does it have the "boob shelf" sewn in?  ;)  what size, does it come in other colors, any nice lace, would it go with nice jeans, how 'bout distressed/holey jeans, where did you get it, was it on sale, will they put them out again, ermahgerdddd!!  what have I become, someoneee help meeeeee .... aaaaahahhhh ( <--- goes running down the hall..)

sorry.. I've been in a weird/funny mood/mode lately..    >:-)

total seriousness now (*giggles*)..  multiple thin straps are all the rage now, it's ok to go with.. seems multi-colored too, like a badge..   :angel:

Here is the link to the place I bought a few from. They had a few other colors in store including a lavender one with lace at the top and bottom. But this is the basic style. Oh also the blue I got is a little darker.

Also here is the skirt. Mine looks a little closer to cream but is the same type.

Thinking of wearing a pair of rainbow leggings with it but leaning to another color since the leggings are only thigh high and I am not that confident in my tuck ability yet. :P

Wait, you're thinking of wearing all those together?

Nobody is going to care about your bra strap if you're wearing rainbow leggings. They will be like "Rainbow leggings? Really? WTF?"

Nah. Not really. I am still learning to dress out. I live at home where it isn't exactly easy for me to dress like me... I plan on moving out in a few months or so if I can afford it. I am planning on moving in with a couple of friends who are the reason I went to this years pride event in Indy wearing a skirt and ladies top. And I didn't feel self conscious all day. :D
