Trans females: Wearing your old clothes as your new gender? Yes or no?

I might have the odd t shirt left, but even they are the wrong shape so I just donated everything except my wedding suit. Even that has NO chance of fitting me but for some reason I can't let it go yet.

I kept a few unisex T-Shirts (not getting rid of my Dr Who shirt) and some sweatshirts. I sometimes wear them when doing work around the house.

It took me about six months to get rid of male clothes. When I moved this year though I did notice some unisex t-shirts, a cardigan that I thought was a women's, but it's a man's and a few other items. Have no issues wearing what i found.

Early on, I just chose the more feminine items of my male-ish wardrobe and went with that.

There are ways to turn male shirts into decent feminine clothes, but most of the ones I've found either require sewing or oversized shirts which wouldn't work here unless you've lost a lot of weight. That said I don't think it's impossible to just wear them normally and still seem feminine, especially if they are tighter fitting T-shirts but then that relies on E being kind to you.

Being still closeted at work I have a variety of shirts I don't dare wear in anymore...

thank you that actually makes me feel good about keeping my old stuff as I move forward lol, yeah I know my mom and sisters all have unisex style shirts like, well like dr. who shirts and whatnot, so I shouldnt have to worry too much

I should have added that I had male-fail moments back even when I was partially wearing a male wardrobe. I focused on colors like pink (strangely now I rarely wear pink) and stuff like v-neck t-shirts and I'd wear with skinny women's jeans. A lot of male clothes that are on the more feminine part of the fashion spectrum.

It would not have done me much justice to continue wearing the men's clothes I had, especially since they  were mostly tactical style clothing. They were great for activities where I used my flexibility for fighting or running, but not for achieving a feminine appearance. I have some loose fitting clothing I may wear for MMA practice, but much thinner material then the tactical wear I used to have, and it looks much nicer on me.

This is interesting to me. I have a few male clothing left but they're just so big on me. And then the female clothing I have they're very tight lol I don't think I grasp the middle ground just yet.
Long sleeve shirts seem to be a bit better for men's clothing but it's getting too hot for those.
