Title: What's the first article of women's clothing that you own?
Post by: Keri Allison on April 22, 2012, 04:27:27 PM
I finally bought my first piece of women's clothing two days ago! I was sitting at the library, studying/ writing essays and I realized my knees were really cold, so I used that as an excuse to buy this:

...in midnight blue. I can wear em when it's cold, and no one can tell :/

I can't wait till they come :)

So, story time! What's the first article of women's clothing that you own? How did you get it? Why did you get it? Feel free to tell us more :)

My first one was a two piece bathing suite I burrowed  :o from my older sister :)

The first one that I bought with my own monies (earned not given) was a pair of black patent leather "Mary Jane's" shoes.

Hello... I'm new around here.

Well, I been using and wearing ladies gloves for years purely because my hands are truly tiny. Small men's gloves are simply too big!!

The first article of clothing for me was actually quite a bit of clothing. My first day in Seminary was the first day I went full time so I needed a new wardrobe.

They were pretty much jeans, ankle length skirts, knee length skirts, a pantsuit, sweaters, blouses, stuff like that.

Mine was a sweater dress before starting transition... and then i discovered I look horrible in that :P And definitely should stay away from things that show the shoulders. I never wore it out or anything, just kind of a test to try and imagine if things might work out or not...

After that, I didn't buy any female clothes for a year. When I finally did, I got a couple androgynous tops and a lighter colored trench coat (to replace my black coat).

A pair of black boots with 3" chunky heels - still my favourite.  I had things in the past when I was still in denial, but those are all longs since purged.  Now, I'm expanding the collection :)

Oy, way back when I bought a woman's article of clothing for the first time, I was so scared out of my mind I barely saw what I was getting. It was this big, blocky, ugly plaid top. But I loved it, because it was one of the first articles of clothing that allowed me to show a side of myself I never had before. It's still in my closet.

that's same reason why I'd never get rid of my first guitar, and I have 5 of them... o.o

I went into a thrift shop and came out with a short skirt and some used red heels.... the lady at the counter said "nice heels" with other people standing in line right behind me - i about died of embarrassment and could not get out of there fast enough :laugh:

Still have the skirt but sadly the heels were too big and i threw them away.
