Hi Ladies. I have 10 days to myself in May. As a very occasional crossdresser I don't have any clothes at home and I'm currently planning some new outfits (pink fog overload!). Will also have to shave my beard off a few weeks before. Hope that doesn't arouse any suspicion! 

I favour dresses and skirts. I have my eye on a rather cheeky short bright pink skirt (to be paired with a white lace long sleeved top) and probably a couple of dresses, ideally lace, light colours (I'm looking at pink again, but I've also seen some nice blue ones), maybe one floral dress.

My question is this, since I'm hopeless with colour: what would be a good colour for heels and stockings/tights (preferably patterned) to go well with the sort of outfits I've outlined?

Thanks for any help you can give to colour co-ordinate me.

Hugs, Chrissie xx.

@chrisfp99 Hi, Chrissie.

I only recently began dressing again following a purge a few years ago. Consequently,  I've had to start from scratch! Anyhoo, to offer my opinion, I find black or nude heels go with just about anything but you could also think about silver or gold.

Enjoy your 10 days and don't fall off your high heels! Ha ha x

Thank you Alexina. Nude heels seems a popular choice. I'm so inexperienced that the heels will be a challenge. I think I can manage 3" for a short period xx.

@chrisfp99 I have a couple of pairs of stilettos, both 3", that I can more or less walk reasonably in but I've discovered block heels, omg they are a breeze to walk in and much more comfortable while still looking fab.

Yeah, thinking about a pair of stilettos and a pair of block heels or wedges xx.

@chrisfp99 Hi and firstly at your ten days lost in the fog. I also see similarities right down to the beard but sadly minus the ten days.

I agree with the choice of white shoes or if the dress suits maybe add to the pink theme.

Either way have a great time and can't wait for the pictures.

@chrisfp99 Black and white go with just about everything, but some unexpected colours also go with pink. In nature (sunsets), shades of gray are there.

If you use an on-line colour wheel, light blues and green are opposites. There are other patterns that can be used with a colour wheel, too. Secondary, complimentary, tertiary, quads, and so on. You can also search for pink colour palettes on-line.

@chrisfp99 Hi Chrissie,

I would say maybe nude/beige heels would go well.

They would lend themselves to nude stockings, so a pattern would probably be harder. You could always try seamed of course.

Just had a quick look at the UK Tights site and spotted a rather fetching pair with pink tops and seams

Ohhh ten days to yourself, divine.  Enjoy.

To your question I'm sorry I have no idea on colour matching, I stick to basics you see most women wearing.

Elaine, yes, 10 days but they come around very rarely so I'm planning to make the most of them. Also got a makeover booked xx.

I think a nice pair of white heels could go with most/all of them, and would look so pretty for a day look in May. Stockings is a bit harder but I would either go bare, or nude color, or maybe a very sheer white for daytime. But it kind of depends on the style too. If you are doing more of a sundress sort of floral, a cute pair of sandals with bare legs would look yummy.

Nighttime, I think a black pair of heels is almost never a bad option (or again the sandals depending on the dress)...I have a riot girl streak in me so, a pair of black docs are always an option with just about anything Wink

Lovely response Nadia. I'm not in a position to shave my legs so bare legged is not really an option. I'm cool with nude heels but I'd like something a bit opaque on my legs xx.

I'd be inclined to go with white or nude heels with what you're describing.  White if you can get away without having to wear the hosiery, nude if you do have to.  The stockings/tights concerned just the usual light tan to get some colour on your legs, pattern is up to you.  

Disclaimer: I don't think I've got any colour sense either! 😉  Be interested to see what other more experienced girls say.

Do have the most wonderful time hon 🙂  I hope to read all about it (and see some photos of course!) on here in a few months.

Fiona xxx

Thank you Fiona. I'm sure I'll post about my very rare opportunity. Maybe some pics if I'm feeling brave. I also have a makeover booked so I'd be more likely to post those pics rather than my somewhat fumbling efforts at home xx.

If you're going with pink and white, you want white shoes and tights.

Hi Chrissie. That sounds wonderful your 10 days in May. You have me a tad jealous. My rules I follow for colours are just from my experience and might be wrong but here we go. 

White top skirt or slacks means white or tan shoes.

Black top skirt or slacks means black shoes. 

White and black together whatever the top is wear that colour shoes.

Shoes that are not black, white or tan must match the colour of your dress or top.

I never wear the same colour top and skirt or same colour top and slacks.

All florals will go with black but some floral prints can be too light to go with white.

Floral top and floral skirt or floral slacks together is normally too much however there can be the odd exception.

Natural colour pantyhose go with anything. I particularly like the ones that give your legs a tanned appearance.

Black tights, stockings or pantyhose need black shoes and the skirt or dress to be dark. 

I hope that helps. I'd love to know if you think I should change any my rules or if there is something I should add. There always seems to be something new to learn about fashion.

All the best for your 10 days in May Chrissie and I hope you have a wonderful time.

Thank you so much Olivia. Lots of useful advice to digest. I'm sure I'll have a wonderful time no matter how bad my colour co-ordination is 😂. I'm a keen golfer but the thought of playing en femme is just beyond my wildest dreams! xx

@chrisfp99 I'm a golfer too and in July last year I played a round of golf as Olivia. It was one of my wildest dreams too. I had been visiting a mate who lived quite a distance away in the country so I took two extra nights on my way home and stayed in a small country town that had a nine hole course. I put on a long sleeve active wear type top and shin length white pants with pantyhose underneath. I had all my usual makeup and jewelry on with my best wig. I got to the course about 8am and no one was there. Small courses like that here have an honesty box where you put your green fees in cash in an envelope and put the envelope in a slot then just walk on and play. I was the only one on the course for the first 4 or 5 holes when a few others showed up to play. That didn't worry me as the whole time I had been in town I was female. I played dreadful as I was just so excited to be on the course as a female and swinging around my boobs took a bit to get used to but I didn't care. I was in paradise. My favorite thing was hitting off from the ladies tees. 

Chrissie you look amazing and totally passable as a woman in your photos. I think if you really want to make that wildest dream come true one day it isn't out of your reach.

What a lovely story Olivia and thank you so much for the compliments. Hadn't thought about the practicality of having boobs. What a hoot! xx
