If it were me, I'd be wearing thigh highs and/or panties under my boyclothes >:)
But to answer your question:
Painting nails, a classic.
Cleaning, trimming and filing nails to make them look nice.
Relaxing in a nice long bath.
Shaving or otherwise removing body hair.
Put a ribbon or flower in your hair!
Gosh now I regret forcing myself not to buy thigh highs or skirts or anything until I lose weight hehehe~
The comfy warm bath and shaving session does sound perrrrfect though, all the steam and soft girl smells (:
If you're going to do your nails, treat yourself to a crystal/glass file. They don't cost loads (I got a "Mont Bleu" set of 3 off amazon for less than £10, they look like this😏) but seriously - not only are they so much smoother to use, they really help stop them breaking and fraying as much at the tips, so they can grow longer and stronger!
I know from experience gaining and losing weight that my legs aren't getting smaller. I've bought some of my bottoms with stretchiness and ties so they are one size too big but fit fine, and just hoping my jeans that are one size too big can get shrunk by bathing with them on in hot water, or whatever. My one skirt has an elastic waistband. You could consider it once you're feeling girly and taken care of.
