Title: Short shopping trip
Post by: georgie on November 10, 2018, 10:16:07 AM
Shaved as closely as I could.  Tinted lip balm.  Bra, panties, black slacks, striped knit top, multicolored sneakers, no socks, tiny bit of ankle, winter coat as today was very brisk.  Dangly earrings.

Mid-sized mall at opening this morning.  Made myself park out front, had to wait with a small group for the doors to open.  Walked through Penny's and small portion of the mall over to Torrid.

Wandered about, looked at a number of tops.  Ended up with a light-pink knit top with lace and crocheted at the wrist.  Fits just right.

Just another lady shopping.  YAY!

Dear Georgie:
This is a wonderful report and so very affirming and confidence building for you.   
Being out there with a smile on your face, walking and moving around like a woman, doing  your best to have the appearance of a woman, being confident, etc.... all of that is exactly the right thing to do.... and each time you go out and about, it will get easier for you. 

When you have successes it builds your confidence, when you have failures then you might consider that as learning moments and then get out there and try again.....     
Never give up, never surrender !!!!!

Thanks for your report...  I will be looking for future updates.
Best wishes to you.
Danielle

Walking around in public as a woman is a fantastic experience.  One one occasion, I went to my favourite pub and they not only didn't recognize me, they didn't see me as male underneath!  I was just another woman customer.  Incidentally, I'd go for the plain Jane look, as I thought it would be easier.

Sounds like you had a great time shopping. Dont stop there. The more you get out and about the better and more comfortable you will feel.
