New clothes

Clearance...love it, live it, learn it.

One of my goals in starting this blog was to discuss cheap, cheap, cheap clothes for us trans folk. I mean damn, ain't fashion a bitch on your pocketbook? Especially when a dollar isn't worth a nickel.

Some of you who have been out for longer have this down pat. I, being an emotionally clumsy gender obsessed wrecking ball, have only begun to blossom as a shopper.

And I love it!

With the economy tangled up in its own bra, I vowed to not buy fashionable clothes, bags, and accessories--though I want to...I pine, I perish.

I'm a Target gal, and Wal-mart too, for some things...not for all, dear readers, I have some dignity.

I also started this blog, because I dither on too much. Put me in front of a word processor and I go, go, go. Over the month I'll post cool poems, which may or may not be trans themed.

It is National Poetry Month

and I am a transgendered poet...so I figure I have to punish you with one of my other obsessions...

Oh, clothes. Scheduled for delivery, tomorrow....target close out clothes...two dresses for 25.00 and change (shipping)

Also I snagged a pair of fashion tights (black with grey and silver criss crosses) for a dollar at Dollar Tree...sweet

Petra Nygren is a Sweedish designer who has blossomed into quite the artist. I love her watches, they are sexy and cool and fit for all. She's Sweedish and her watches would look fetching on anyone.

Not a bargain buy, though.

Everytime I read Petra's blog...I think of the designer.

Everytime I wear the watch I feel sexy, confident, and everyone comments. Looks good on men and women. Unisex, TG, fun.

Warm days

The mercury hit 70 today and little miss thing shook it in the sunshine.

Plus! Accessories: two new scarves, an edgy black leather belt with cute studs (yes, cute) A great light pink empire blouse and a cool blue gypsy skirt.

Pumps arrive tomorrow

So does my new wig!

My little tranny head is going to explode! Wee!

New Dress. Thrift Store Bargin. 4.99

Love thrifting. Love it.

And honey, in my town there are three thrift stores and one cheap, cheap, cheap, broke-ass Big Lots-type department store (which is bargain hunters dream/hell...sometimes you can find a killer denim skirt, or a nice sweater dress, and then nothing...

for months.

Which means you troll the thrift stores, like some clothes junkie, your heart rate jacked, as you thumb through the stale fashions.

But let me digress...

Thrifting rule number one: shop for basics, and timeless looks/fabrics: i.e. wool skirts, shrifts, scarves, sweaters, cardigans, turtlenecks, and the like.

Crossdresser's guilty pleasure: floral print dresses, skirts, tops.

God,I swoon. All the girls I loved before wore a variation of such wispy femininity.

So this dress was a boon.

One size too big for me, but it is a comfortable fit. I am a tall large shouldered, but slender man, and sport an 18. This, alas is a 20w. Still it fits well it the arms, but makes my already shapeless, hipless (oh for an hourglass!) self seem even more so shapeless and hipless. Needs taking up. Or padded panties, and a upgrade in the bra and tissue department. A summer project.

For the price, nice.

For the memory/sensory associations, priceless.

Pics that make my girly heart flutter!
