I like dresses the most when I go in public. I feel a lot more comfortable because it some what distracts from too much attention to my face. It's like presenting totally female so giving others minds to see female at a glance and not to critically evaluate. Although I like the feel of a dress a lot more . Jeans are fun with a pretty blouse. The last couple of days I've been wearing a pink blouse I just bought with skinny jeans and it's quite comfortable. I'm just finding I love women's fashions so much better.  I'm also finding the clothes fit me far more properly because of my size. I use to always have to wear paints that were too long. The petite short size fits me perfectly. I haven't tried a pencil skirt yet. It's hanging in my closet waiting for me ,but I've been doing dresses since going out in public.

Skinny jeans and top, (majority with geek humor on them). Have a few blouses for going out.  Oh and boots and shoes of different colors to match what I'm wearing (mostly Dr.Martins and converse)
Do not fear those who have nothing left to lose, fear those who are prepared to lose it all

I always wear skirts with a top - they're so flattering and lovely and I feel so pretty in them :) Most often with tights.. Sometimes wear denim shorts!

black slacks and a pretty top. I try not to stick out in public, and this combination seems to fit the bill.

Skinny jeans, shorts or capris. Feminine top, women's T, or summer lace top with a cami.

I love to wear dresses or skirts... with sandals in the summer and winter months... boots.. i love knee high boots.. with a heel.. I love wearing 4inch heels.

in the summer months i love cami type tops..

in the winter months i love to wear pantyhose... but pantyhose was the first female clothing i ever wore.

You just had to bring the hotness, didn't you Evelyn? ;)

Pre-op for me it was skinny jeans and a t-shirt (HRC, tie-dye, or something with a statement) along with sandals or boots.  If a more formal occasion then a nice women's top but the preference was jeans over slacks.

As I approached my surgery date I started wearing maxi skirts with the t-shirts, but things got a little awkward once I went off hormones and tucking became difficult.

Now it's all maxi skirts (out of necessity) and sandals. Yesterday I bought several dressier skirts and tops, to get away from the t-shirt look.  Last night I wore one of my new outfits and felt fabulous.  But I can't wait to get back in the jeans, and I'm looking forward to buying new ones that provide the proper fit down there :)

dresses almost every day. no shame in it at all :D

and usually with something light that goes on top... right now it's a lace thing. With most outfits I like for my arms to be covered.

but seriously, probably 2 dresses every day

Since it is summer and it's hot now, I always wear short shorts and form fitting, spaghetti strap tank tops.

I am tempted to go out topless today but with my face and,,,um,,,chest (boobs) I'm not so sure itx a good idea lol!

But it is legal to do so here!

I'd say about 90% of the time I am out in public I am in either a dress or a skirt. I love how I feel wearing them and how I look. At 6ft tall I get the added confidence boost of clearly unambiguously female attire. (No Scott jokes, I get them from my 1/2 Scottish wife). Plus I spent essentially all my waking life seeing me in slacks.

There are times I do do casual as in jeans and a nice top. I have a few pair that I feel and look good in. In fact, I raised an eyebrow or two my last TG group meeting by doing casual. For just about every meeting I've been to these past 5 years it has been girlie girl for me. I sometimes joke that I don't do casual

Usually it's skinny jeans or jeggings and a fitted V-neck t-shirt + my black converse or ankle boots w/ 4-inch heels. But now that it's summer, I'm switching over to tiny loose shorts and loose tops or athletic-wear. I hate my feet so I avoid sandals but I might get a pair sometime.. I'd also wear skirts if I could find any decent ones.. >_<

Oh that's not me. lol.

Just andro stuff I like for me, now. Dresses are fine if you're passing in the strictest sense. But I keep a high passing standard for myself, so I'd rather be safe and just rock the fem-andro. We can't be having people clocking Evelyn now can we? Knowmesayin??



For a more feminine fem-andro look (maybe next summer) I'd probably roll something kinna like this. Maybe with heels. Maybe not. We'll see.



Booyeh!

Skinny jeans, some sort of a nice top, and nice wedges or heels work for me. I have a large upper body build so I have to stay away from any top that emphasizes that, such as most t-shirts and anything sleeveless. Skirts are nice but I don't wear them very often. I don't own any dresses yet but that is something that I need to explore when funds allow.

I have a nice light sweater like covering to hide my upper arms, too much heavy lifting in past
