Feelings while dressed

I know those feeling well. The first time I dressed fully fem, I was so excited. I wanted to do this my whole life, now I was. I was excited, happy and I felt an intense erotic thrill. I hadn't anticipated this but it was wonderful.

When I looked in a mirror, there was a tall, beautiful girl with amazing legs and pretty hair in a beautiful short dress, shiny pantyhose and sexy stilettos. That's me? OMG! I wanted this so much for so long. Now I was living a dream and fantasy. It was amazing. It changed my life and it's been wonderful creating and being Patty.

Welcome to CDH. Gilly (also in the UK).

Hi from Marcie in Harrow (UK)

I have been playing at crossdressing since I was young, as most on here it was wearing panties, stockings, lingerie etc...

After many years not dressing, I started again late last year, and oh my I realise how much I have missed it.

When I dressed properly for the first time with make up, wig, shaved legs, heels etc, I felt electric, buzzing, amazing, could not believe that I would look like this, in high heels legs look amazing....

Until recently I was happy to stay in doors, but my goal has changed I want to be able to go out and show the world Marcie at her best.

I love being dressed, and get so excited when I know that I will get the time to dress.

Hi Jenny,

Oh my! I remember that like it was yesterday. The first time I was able to dress fully was in 1978. I was on leave from The Army and in a small hotel on the Cornish coast. I pampered and preened, shaved and made up, perfumed, powdered and tucked. The I opened the wardrobe and carefully, almost with reverence, shaking with excitement I put on the clothes I had so carefully aquired. The feelings were almost overwelming.

Well, I looked a mess. But I was happier than I had ever been. I paraded around the room, stood in the window and looked at myself from every angle you can think of. I got some things right. Autumnal colours were me. Country style was me. Hair was wrong and make-up was a disaster. But there was something there. I knew that I had taken a huge step towards 'coming home'. I had a feminine side that enjoyed being released. It felt so right.

Eventually I had to leave the army. I couldn't carry on hiding Sian. I was lucky to be in a position where I worked office hours in the main, and under my uniform I was wearing some distinctly un-military clothing!

That first time led me to my current life. Enjoy your journey. Mine has been a blast!

Hi Girls I have been dressing since 8 whenever I can...the sensations are wonderful as I put on lingerie,clothes,stockings and high heels. I still only dress at home and hope one day I get the strength to venture out shopping etc as I ca  only dream what that would feel like. Any advice ladies would be gratefully received and hopefully acted on.

Ii dream of the day when I can buy my clothes at the shops dressed in my most gorgeous feminine attire...

Love and kisses Rebecca x

Very similar experience for me.  Have always had the desire, but just started really dressing a couple of years ago, and yes, was amazed at how it felt.  Still am.  It's so fantastic that I can transform myself, and so damn fun taking advantage of all the amazing variety of looks available to women!

Hi Jenny,

I had my first femme weekend in May of 2019. I do not, and will not, share my crossdressing with my wife. I had a long weekend to myself last May and I planned on dressing when I had privacy.

I was excited of course, but what I discovered was a calm and an inner peace that I have been unable to find in my public life.

This was transformational for me. I now remain committed to becoming as much a woman as I can possibly be without giving up my loving wife and without undergoing any surgeries.

Hi Jenny when I first started back in my preteen years and was just a feeling of happiness and excitement. When I looked in the mirror I knew that it just felt right. Teen years was much more exciting when I learned more about make up and clothing styles. My experiences with crossdressing have always been nothing but excitement. The old saying applies for me "if the shoe fits wear it" In my case it is a great pair of heels. If you enjoy it. Then do it . Crossdressing hurts no one There is nothing wrong with it. Thers is nothing wrong with you. It is just a part of you. Luv Stephanie

Nowadays, if I get an hour in alone, I won’t bother, as that is not enough to do the experience justice. I need 3 to 4 hours minimum. If a job is worth doing, it’s worth doing well! Concealer, foundation, eyeliner, false lashes, eyebrows (with the glue stick trick) etc. It’s also nice to try on a few outfits and see which wig matches best (got 7 now).

I’ll do all the make up first, whilst sitting in bra, necklace, panties, tights/stockings. Then  I’ll put on the outfit and a few more accessories, without looking in the mirror. Finally I will put on the wig of choice and heels. Slowly, I’ll walk towards the long mirror and turn to look at a tall slim lady. It’s  not me staring back; it’s Katie, and I get such a buzz. You all know the feeling!

I’ve been cross dressing for many years in and off, all private. I’ve rarely gone all in so to speak. Only recently I’ve started working on make up skills. I’ve played with make up before but not with any kind of guidance or interest in doing it skillfully. What I’ve realized lately is that when I dress or now especially when I get made up, I cannot take my eyes myself. I don’t really know exactly what I’m feeling. I know I avoid looking at myself when I’m not dressed and made up. The few occasions when I do really look at myself in boy mode, I have the sensation of not knowing who Is looking back at me in the mirror. I’ve spent my whole life conspicuously not caring more than I had to about my looks or my clothes. As a woman, suddenly it’s all I think about and I can’t stop looking. I’m still processing all of this.

I know the feeling girlfriend I've been cross-dressing on and off since I was 5 years old and I put on my mother's pantyhose and I've got to say even at this day now when my legs are shaved and I slip on a pair of sheer pantyhose I get a euphoric feeling that I can't describe so funny how you just transformed into a whole different person when I look at myself in the mirror and I have my makeup on wig my lingerie pantyhose heels I literally am a dainty girly girl and that's 100% different from my regular persona I just want to sit down and cross my legs and be as dainty as any woman it's a curse a lot of girls say because they have the urge to dress but I think it's a blessing we're not hurting anybody and what the hell

Hi Jennifer,

The revelatory epiphany or, "Where has this been all of my life?!?". Especially when you see 'her'. I think many have had that sudden flash of enlightenment.
