LADIES!
I got to be Ashley today!
Only for a couple hours, and confined to our bedroom, BUT STILL!
Selinakyle and I went shopping this afternoon and we bought my first dress, and bra/panties. Got home, shaved/waxed all over, and then she plucked my eyebrows and did my makeup for me.
We made a deal that I couldn't look in the mirror until everything was done and I was completely dressed. I was legitimately terrified that when I finally looked, I wouldn't see Ashley looking back at me. I'd just see the old me in a dress. I didn't, though, and after a crazy emotional week, that's a huge win for me.
I wanted to share a couple pictures, because we had a lot of fun taking some.

Congratulations! Happy moments like these are things you will always remember. Hold on to memories like these. But...

... you really shouldn't be saying things like that. Why do you refer to yourself in the third person? Did you become someone else? No!! You have always been Ashley. Instead, today you got to see a glimmer of your true self. So the correct thing to say would be "
I got to be myself today". Now say that again, and really mean it. :)
Wow you go girlfriend. Wish I could look even remotely close.

You look amasing Ashley! Thats a great story. My GF did baisicly did the same for me, did my hair and makeup, and then the reveal was amasing. I didn't do my eyebrows though, still haven't!
I'm scared people will notice.
You really look well, amd I love the look of your face! You have cheeks for days!
Is that a picture of you that you use as your Avatar? You look very pretty.
You look stunning Ashley! Love the dress! Love the eyebrows!
You look just perfect!
I'll send my pics once I start my transitioning.
I see a happy girl!!! That's what it is about, being happy to just be you. :D
The pictures don't do her justice. She looked absolutely stunning last night. I can't wait until the first night I get to take my gorgeous girl out on the town all dolled up.

Emily, you are absolutely right! I wasn't someone else. I was ME! And it was the BEST! ;D
Thank you everyone for your kind words. I'm still on cloud 9.

Looking good fellow Ashley!!!!
Cool. Cute dress, my daughter bought that same one about a month ago. Hot Topic doesn't have my size in anything and I'm not young enough to pull off most of their stuff either.
Ashley

Congrats on reaching this milestone! The first of many I suspect
Take care
Steph

You've got good taste, girl.
My gf was going to get me a Maleficent one, but I think that's extreme for her right now. lol
