Title: great to be out and about in the city
Post by: Joanne Feliz on January 12, 2016, 05:46:49 PM
This last weeks have been absolutely amazing for me.  i feel so liberated.  Is the first time that I have been basically living nearly entirely pubically as a female.  I dont go to work yet dressed but i have started going out in the city and living at my rented house with the land lady presenting as female.

It feels great not to have any secrets anymore!!  Like a great weight being lifted from my shoulders.

Granted it was a little nerve racking stepping out the front door for the first time and it was a bit stressful saying to the landlady im trans but she was very nice and said if it made me feel more comfortable to dress as female around the house she would be cool with it - so now im always in my female persona.  I love it.

This weekend I was out dressed in my cool black fake leather leggings a nice top, and my new knee high boots with a cube heel.  I went to selfriges and tried on all these nice dresses etc...it was soo cool.  The sale ladies were really nice and really helped me out a lot.

I even stopped into Mac and got an amazing make over foundation and eye make up.  So I stocked up on essentials etc...

Ive met so many nice people here in London,  I couldnt be happier!

I just wish I could go to work presenting as female but that is a little more tricky,  i guess it is just small steps at a time.

One thing though,  I definitely need to get more laser done as the foundation doesn't really cover the shadow....but is so expensive in the UK. Ill wait till i go bac to Australia before I do that -is really cheap there.

Im considering visiting a friend of mine whom i told i am trans dressed and presenting as female - though that may be a little nerve racking,  i don't want to lose him as a friend.

Next week Im having my hair done in Selfridges and more make up and clothes shopping with some new friends I met.  I cant wait!

Congratulations!

It is great to finally get out there and be yourself I agree :D Now that you have had that taste I doubt you will ever want to go back to hiding!

You look beautiful by the way. Have you started HRT?

I havent started HRT yet hopefully in a couple of weeks time.  Im so happy to be myself.  I may have to go back to man mode in April because of family commitments but definitely there are going to to be serious conversations about the future I just cannot go back to the old way anymore.
