    You look great! I’m glad you smiled for this because you have really nice lips/mouth shape. I don’t know if you’re wearing lipstick, but if not you should to highlight the nice shape and draw the eyes more. I like the ponytail with the ribbon, simple and cute, but it might also look nice if you let the sides/front down.

    The off the shoulder top is fire, and it looks great with the skirt and choker. If you put a little belt/wrap with it I bet your hips would pop! I also like how your glasses fit your face. Very cute pictures! I hope the bravery barrier doesn’t keep you from posting more 😊

      oooh that’s super useful feedback! I think I agree with the ponytail and needing to let the front down a bit. when I do, I often find my hair (bangs? is that the word?) falling into my mouth/glasses or flying sideways. maybe i’m making those bangs too thin/sparse?

      I haven’t had a proper hair cut in probably a year or so. is there something I should be doing there? nobody ever really taught me what to do with hair other than buzz cut it all off x3

      I love the belt idea actually! would be easy enough to go thrifting and find one I like. My belly isn’t totally gone yet but sooooon!

      I’m not wearing lipstick but it’s on my list! i’m worried about having things in/around my eyes. sweating into eyeliner sounds like hell (uninformed guess)

      honestly all this is euphoric but also overstimulating in a way. my emotions are buzzing in a way they haven’t in a long time. will post more, but I have a long cooldown period lol

        if you can tolerate it, you may want to look into having your eyelashes tinted. it generally lasts a couple months and means a lot less having things around your eyes.

        I’ve never sweat eyeliner off, and it doesn’t hurt when it gets in the eyes. Eye makeup is regulated in much of the world to be eye safe

      EEEEEE!

      Yeah i’m pre-HRT. I have been shaving and trying to grow out my hair (using minoxidil to hold off the balding) while trying to dress in ways that make me happy. I figured if i’m too scared to talk to anyone at least i could live my fantasy for a few years and revisit the idea.

      now that there’s no negative influences left in my life I think with clear eyes I REALLY want to figure out fashion. I want to LOVE my body.

      I’m 33 iirc, so a lot of my life was wasted being anxious. I want to be femme so I’m going to do so :3

      I have an appointment this december with the transgender health program at a hospital a town over… i’m practically vibrating in place waiting.

        lmfao this is too real, my age comes with a 20% margin of error

        I have an appointment this december with the transgender health program at a hospital a town over…

        hope that goes well! keep in mind that even if there are unexpected obstacles/delays, DIY is always an option :)

      hehe sure :3

      I kinda live with my whole social net and get overstimulated easily, so you may see me drop off the radar for days at a time. is that still friends? i assume so? >~<

      I really wanted to hear someone other than my support net thinking that <3

      also AAAAAAAH i swear it’s not that obvious IRL! (but yes I will clean those stains today. I really want to get my act together!)
