I bought myself a new dress, not my first dress but the first one I picked out myself. It makes me feel unreasonably happy just big huffs of euphoria on tap. I'm temporarily wearing another dress so i don't suck up all the happy too fast gotta ration it out so it lasts longer.
it's a little sappy but Chappel Roan's Red Wine Supernova is what finally broke through my thick skull and cracked my egg 7 or so months ago. Specifically the line about standing there in gogo boots and a short skirt waiting for a pretty girl to bite on you. I kept listening to it over over and i just thought it was neat and then this lightbulb went off and i realized oh hey i want that to be me. I'm the girl in the skirt wanting to be bit!
yeah i should just chill that's usually my real problem overthinking
I'm having a lovely one it's my 6mo hrt anniversary today and i just feel grand.
I am blasting it out into the universe to share with everyone I love all of you and wish you the best!
How are you doing @Pastthedysphoria@hexbear.net ?
Bunch of fashion blathering
I thought puffy head bands were the ultimate head feminizer but i have discovered barettes and ohhhh my it's so lovely.
I got a light blue dress for myself and I have just been rolling in euphoria. Today is my 6 month HRT anniversary and it's only getting stronger as i figure out more feminine combos.
It's a little weird being so old and transitioning directly into an old lady I sort of worry about not dressing my age. I don't act weird or anything though when i go out (beyond the regular autism and adhd and bipolar stuff i reckon) so im trying to be a good ambassador. My bffs say im not overdoing it ๐ค๐ป
One thing that is very difficult is how much trouble it is keeping nice clothes clean!!! I have had to rescue my new dress twice already, once from au jus splashing onto the hem and just this morning from leaning against the car bumper while getting groceries. You have to be sooooo careful at all times which i find tough as i was a slob who didn't give any fucks about myself or my appearance before.
It's so worth it when a girl compliments your dress or your outfit or makeup though i treasure that shit sooo much. I joked with my partner (who is not into it but being nice) about detransitioning and she said that she didn't believe I could if I wanted to. She said I have a woman's heart and there's no putting that genie back in the bottle. She is right of course.
grabbed a copy of this book thanks for the rec Eco! Very engaging right off the bat!
edit: a couple chapters in and loving it
I love you all so much. Thank you for helping me be my best self and finding true happiness ๐๐๐
