So it's now a full week wearing only female gear, work gear is unisex so can't count that.
I'm not wearing bright pink tops with unicorns on or anything,  just female jeans and some simple but cute tops, some basic jewellery and wearing some rose smelling perfume which I adore!

Have I had any stick? Nope. Had a few stares sure but I  don't care if people want to stare as long as they don't want to beat me up.

Makeup is slowly improving and taking way less time to apply too.
Now I need to lose this big old beer belly and eventually get the courage to get my hair styled in a female style as it's now shoulder length.

I'm finding myself much happier but also much more frustrated with life in general.

Going great girl, it's wonderful and so normal at the same time isn't it! X

I started wear female cloths part time in January and still had my beard and mustache and got no comments. February I went to wearing daily and in March I shaved and got a wig and have been full time. People I know actually are fine with the changes as they now know my direction in life. Before people just assumed I had gyno and that explained the bra and chest growth.
As soon as I went full time my life finally felt perfect and I'm happier than ever before. I can go out and not care what anyone thinks.
Best wishes with your journey.

@ Katie:  I am so happy for you and very happy to hear your story.  Being what you are meant and living your life as it is meant to be.....  and bravely dressing accordingly is very satisfying to say the least.   Now that you have been dressing in female clothes for a week I know that it will be as tough as nails for you to go back to male clothes, if you ever do.  Kudos to you.

I have been living full-time as a female for almost a year and a half,  I am business owner and I have lots of new friends, male and female...  and I even belong to a group of cis-women that go to the gym regularly.   I have NOT worn male clothes, not even boyfriend jeans or male looking t-shirts or other male clothes since I went full-time.  In fact I have NO males clothes, shoes or anything else male left... I had given it all to Goodwill.   It is a wonderful feeling to finally be me
.
I trust that your journey continues successfully and please keep us updated.
Best wishes,
Danielle

I have no male trousers at all excluding work trousers and I have to retain a few male tops for family purposes but other than that, no going back.
Male clothes are awful anyway haha

Male cloths feel so rough and uncomfortable now. It's amazing the difference I can feel between my female cloths and my old male wear.

That's awesome.

Take notes of what the women around you are wearing and replicate that look.  Maybe a little bit more feminine or dressy but if you want to blend in be appropriate.

Wow, Julie, your eyes!!!! - Julie in the sky with diamonds - nice.

Katie

I know the feeling. On the one hand making progess and I glad to hear yours is being maintained.

However frustrated in general presumably at being so far from "the end of the course". I sympathise entirely. All I can advise is try to be patient if you can and always remember and be grateful that you have already achieved so much. The latter should make the waiting easier to bear.

Thanks Cassi.  I will always take a compliment.  When I can get my eye makeup right, the blue really comes out.  At least I have one thing going for me.  LOL

I can't wait!!!
I'm rarely going to be in pants, lol. Its skirts and hose 90% of the time.
I've developed a fondness for mid thigh skirts and dresses.
Materials for women are so much better!!!
I've fallen in love with chiffon.
