Please ignore the furry bits I'm too lazy to shave right now. I don't care that there are 4 shades of purple. I absolutely love it! The flannel has a hood so I'm planning on this being my first in public outfit. I have some cute face masks so I can stay pretty anonymous. I also got my first matching bra and pantie sets which are great still getting used to how they feel but enjoying the look alot. Definitely ups my femininity. Also painted my toenails yellow the other night, love the bright happy color!

Hope you are doing well! Thank you all for being you!

Love,

♡♡♡Nissa♡♡♡

Yeah I hate using Amazon, but it's so hard to find styles I like in stores these days. I miss the old Hot Topic (before they changed to market mostly to kids) and similar stores. And with starting from scratch with no really close, local friends to help, places that don't have free and easy returns are just not worth it. I was also lucky enough to get invited to Amazon Vine and it gave me a bunch of junk clothes to try for minimal cost, though I can't return, it's just paying income tax on the value and writing good quality reviews, so with fast-fashion stuff it was really worth it.

So, I've really relied on Amazon to help me build the years and years of knowledge that many cis-girls get in fashion and fit just from growing up in a just a couple of years, alone. I hate that I rely on something so horrible, but there's very little ethical consumption in post-capitalism. Now I mostly shop thrift stores for more lasting clothes, but only because I have a basis from experimenting from Amazon and fast-fashion and there are several local shops and most aren't transphobic.

I'd say if Amazon helps all the trans girls find their true identities and fashions that suit them, Bezos can have one second less in Hell. It's only fair.

I can definitely live with that
