I purchased a simple miniskirt. I wore it yestertday to shop in a college town where most passersby are 20's. I am not quite sure whether it was fashionable, but I got a lot of attention, probably because of my unusual height and masculine face. I noticed that some drivers in the car saw into me through tanned window. It is M size (74 cm waist).
There were a lot of affordable fashion items in the college town. I purchased a nice bag at ca. US $10, and a long tee at $3. I tried a red hot pants. Its size was 0, and I entered the fitting room. I decided to buy it, but the price was $55. Absurd. I gave up. I drunk with my old friends after shopping. My friends suggested that they can buy the hot pants to me as a gift, but I declined.
It was a nice day for me.

Barbie you look fantastic.

Hi, Ronda,
Thanks for the first reply.
But as others suggested, I did not smile enough. I probably will go to the same place this weekend, and I hope to wear a red one-piece dress and a red hat. A problem is weather here is like fall, and I worry that it will become too cold to wear one-piece dress.
Barbie~~
You look great. And I love the dress you're wearing in your avatar. Gorgeous!
Hi Barbie,
You look really gorgeous in dresses.
Cheers,
Jessie
Omg. That's hot. ;D Seriously, that blue is wonderful on you.
And I don't know what it is but... you do not look masculine to me. Am I missing something here, guys? Barbie does not look like a dude to me. She looks like a really tall chick.
I don't know where you're getting this stuff about a masculine face...doesn't look masculine to me. You just look like a tall, willowy, model-esque woman.
But do smile more, and revel in your sexiness. You'll look even hotter!

That whole picture is very pretty to me. :)
Thanks,
In reality, I can not wear skirts freely, especially at my work place, or when with my family.
Today I will have my late summer vacation.

That sucks. :( I hope someday you can always dress pretty... heheh. ;D
I must say you look great perhaps a more tapered shirt to go with it next time
Hey Barbie,
The others were right about the smile. It raises your cheek bones and makes your face look a little wider in the middle; more oval than rectangular, (a more masculine configuration.) Two suggestions: Although I love your long, straight black hair, if many of the girls in your country curl or perm their hair, (I understand you don't want to stand out), you could add just a little wave right about at the cheekbones, with the lower portion angling back in. A curling iron will work fine on real hair; if you're wearing a synthetic wig, you'll need to use a little styling product designed for wigs and just a few of those big rollers and leave them in for a little while--you can't use hot rollers on synthetics. That will do the same thing as your smile does in making your face look softer and rounder and less long and angular. There are also make-up tricks that will do the same thing, but I'm not an expert and would have trouble explaining them. But there are books available and sites online that give make-up tips for different shape faces. But the most important thing is to remember the comments of everyone who replied and that is that you are really lovely. Tall, pretty girls catch people's eyes and turn men's heads; it doesn't mean that they "read" you--they were probably just enjoying the view!
What's really great is that you're getting out now while you're still young. I waited a long time, until just four years ago, until I felt brave enough to go out as a woman. It was, and is, truly wonderful; I just wish I'd started earlier. Good luck finding ways to dress as the beautiful woman you are more often, but most of all, enjoy every moment!
Lotsa' love, Vicki
Hi Barbie I dont understand why you say masicalline face you pass incrediably well. I would never give you a second glance in that sense!
Beautiful.

Hi, Vicki,
Thanks for suggestions and other replies. I already read them, but I did not have a chance to reply.
Indeed many people recommended me to have waved or curled hairs, becuase I can look very sharp. I also sometimes want to have waved hairs with slighly brownish color. But, I see a lot of woman have crisp hairs as they treated their hairs too much. Especially, women at my age envy my hairs, as my hair is still healthy and not so much damaged. When I walk in the street, even some women exclaim how fine my hairs are.
I may have waved hairs in the future, but I am not quite sure. A special reason is that I always loved those women with long, straight black hair when I was young. Polls also show that most young men in my country admire women with long, straight black hairs. Probably, I want to look like a woman who I could love.
Next month, I may have time to treat my hairs with straight perm again. I treat my hair every 6 or 12 months.
Hair style determine >90% of first impression of a person, according to my wife. This is true, isn't it?

Hi Barbie,
Nice skirt you have there. Why not try pink color skirt. I bet you will look nice in it. I would go for pink if i stumble across one.
I wish I had your legs :P
Hi, Evania,
This is a little bit old thread. Last summer, I purchased the skirt and wore it just once so far :-\
I do not have pink skirts, but I do have pink short pants and frequently wear during summer, even with my family at home.
I do not think it is so fashionable, but I love pink color.
Barbie~~
wow..u look great in it. I would say that your body figure is perfect for the shorts.
