Apparently the way I dress caused the fans to get up and get out of town...



actually it was just a really lame basketball game  with a whole lot of empty bleachers. I was busted for being sucked into my phone during the game in this pic.

^Can I sit next to you then?

I don't dress to shock, by any means, but I also don't dress to blend in as everyone here just wears jeans and Ts, which really don't do me any favours. I dress to suit my body shape and match my colouring. So, mostly pleated or A-line skirts and dresses, in warm shades of purple, yellow, brown, green and red. I like tone on tone looks mostly, but don't mind being bold with tights, shoes and accessories.

I try to blend in, but usually it does not work.

My girlfriend...who is the official scorekeeper for the game. I believe that game ended up 82-33. Railroading the visiting team like that is bad karma.

I try to blend and not go overly feminine in dress. The other night and friend and took another friend who is questioning her sexuality to a lesbian bar that also had dancing. (How I love to dance since I've been on HRT.) I kept it simple with tight jeans and a feminine top, very little makeup. (I don't get a 5 o'clock shadow anymore ) I had no trouble blending in and was accepted without any issues and I'm 6'7', the tallest person there. I was having a great time dancing and chatting. I was just one of the girls. There was another trans woman there who over did it with the tight skirt, heels trying to set things I fire, but it just didn't work for her. Her makeup was OK, but a little bit too much compared to everyone else. She was about 6'2" and she stood out way more than me and didn't seem like she was having a good time. Dress is important, but I find attitude the biggest thing that sets things on fire. I know I look a lot more feminine when I'm smiling that when I'm sad.

I dress mostly conservative casual most of the time to blend in. Although I actually end up dressing better than many other women my age where I live.

Yes. Most beautiful women here wear conservatively, but elegantly. They still look sexy.

yes, this is my dream

I plan to dress to be me.  Not to blend in, not to set things on fire, just to be me.  If that sets things on fire, at least I'm being me.  If I end up blending in, at least I'll be blending in as me.

I once read the following blog article.

http://www.halfkoreaninkorea.com/2011/12/differences-in-korean-and-japanese.html

Probably the article tends to generalize, but in overall, his observation seems to be right.

For me, I always wondered why Japanese women wear so poorly. They are art-loving people, but regarding women's fashion, they seem to be clueless. I have never been in Paris, but my colleagues said that that place is a must-go to look around and lean women's fashion.

that's a nice out fit in your avatar

I dress basic with a little bit of a preppy look to it.

I dress in whatever way I feel like that day. Simple, elegant, cute, sexy, scandalous, tough, girlie, athletic, business, party, trashy, fun, what-the-eff-ever. I have many moods and my fashion is the way that I express that to the world. Having a 'style' is kinda boring imo tbh.
