Ladies,
As some of you know I just started embracing this part of myself after decades of repression. During my Internet browsing I stumbled across a thing I didn't know existed. I didn't realize there were crossdressing places that would make you over! I built up the courage to call, and I made an appointment for the end of the month. I told them I wanted to do everything I could to make the most out of this experience. I'm getting two hours of makeup training, and two hours of going out on the town! They're going to take me to friendly places, and even said they would find other crossdressers I could hang 0ut with when they leave. How frickin cool is that?!
I've also gotten more secure about all of this with myself. I bought some makeup while grocery shopping last week. Every time I've gone out since I've been picking up something. A couple days ago I asked the girl at target where the pantyhose were, and got some. I looked at the dress rack at a few stores today, and couldn't believe I did it. I even went to a wig store, and got a wig! I did chicken out a bit, and I told them it was for a drag event. I acted like I wasn't totally into it. Bleh, whatever. I got a wig, and it's a nice one. I ordered a bunch of clothes, and stuff online. I have a nice pretty purse, and I even picked up some bling for it. I also got a pink clutch that doubles as a phone case. I can stash money, and credit cards in it. It's super cute too.
I also did some manscaping last week. Then I just kept doing more, and more. As of today I have eyebrows, and hair on the top of my head. I'm not married anymore. I don't have to answer to anyone. If I want to shave my legs, arms, chest, and back... then I'm going to do it! And I did! And nobody has said anything. I also realized... embarrassingly late... that I don't need to keep my clothes in boxes hidden in the closet. I can keep them in my dresser with all my other clothes. I don't have a girlfriend that's going through my dresser. If she is, and isn't telling me, then she needs to gtfo, of my house, and life. I'm not dealing with that bs anymore.
So this is my plan. My makeover is in a couple weeks on a Saturday night. I'm going to get my nails did at a salon Friday after work. I'm going to get "party nails" which are temporary, and wont mangle up my actual nails when removed. I read they're perfect for weekends. Then I will drive 5 hours Saturday morning to where this is happening with fingernails!!! I'm debating on wearing a cute outfit during the drive, but will be going through rural 'Murica, and having second thoughts. I'm also going to put my phone in the clutch, and that in my purse. So when I check into the hotel I'm going to have nails and purse. haha. I don't care. I really don't. I need to get the f out of this cage of fear, and it's happening easier than I ever imagined. It's like this cage I'm trapped inside is only in my mind... weird, and so powerfully liberating. When I leave the hotel for the appointment, I'm going to be wearing my outfit. I could sneak it out in a bag, but why? I'll have on black patent leather heels, a gorgeous dress, far too much jewelry, a beautiful blonde wig, some perfume, and my pretty purse. I suck at makeup so I bought some oversized glasses to wear. I'm just going to put on some lipstick, and walk right through the lobby to my Uber. haha. Keep in mind that I'm well over 6', and there isn't a chance I'll pass. I don't care about that though. I'll be all dolled up when I get back in the evening. The place I made the appointment with recommended a hotel that would provide the most low key entrance/exit. In theory I could bring my outfit with me, but then I would have to figure out what to do with my drab clothes. So I decided to just go for it. Why shouldn't I? Right? This is my night! This is my first night. This is momentous. This is me, and I love the new me.
Y'know, it's funny. I'm not worried about anyone saying anything, or looking funny at me. I really am past all of that. I'm more concerned about some ignorant person starting a fight. Being in heels, and having pretty long nails isn't exactly going to help me defend myself if something should happen. So like any proper lady would, I got some mace. Of course nothing is going to happen though. I'm just being paranoid. A $6 can a mace that I never use is well worth the cost since it's taking away the biggest fear I have. I think that's a bargain. I've spent a lot more than that on makeup, and jewelry I don't even like! hahaha.
Oh I cannot tell you how excited I am for this. I have no idea what's going to happen, but I have a feeling I'm going to find out a lot of new things about myself. I can't tell you how excited I am to do that.
XOXOXOXO
Victoria

You gotta tell us how it went. Such a exciting experience ,go girl if your going to do it do it right. Best wishes 🌹
Thank you again, everyone. I really appreciate your encouragement.
A few days ago a the dress I was planning to wear arrived, and it was too big. BTW, it’s a fantastic dress for the price if you’re looking for a size 18: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G2WWW6H?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
I was going to order the correct size, but I came across this one, and liked how it looked even more:

That dress arrived today, and I like it a lot. But then yesterday I came across a dress I just had to get. I LOVE polka dots, bodycon, capped sleeves, and mermaids. This dress had all of that. It was only $20 in my size, and they normally go for $30-$40. They even had next day shipping. OMG I just had to have it. It is even better than it looked online. Has a built in slip and hugs my body. I am the happiest girl right now! Here it is:

BTW, VFemage has the best dresses, they come in larger sizes, and they are super affordable.

Hi Lori Sane how did it go .PY .
How brave , you lucky girl. PY x.
Victoria. Thank you for sharing! I am so happy for you and you sound so excited! That's awesome! I worked up the courage to do the same thing earlier this year and it was wonderful! Having a professional makeover was so much fun, I went back two more times since and hoping to go back again later this year. It can be a challenge to get away, but it is what it is.
So excited for you!!!!

I have had the fun and privilege of doing this many times, initially "on the other side of the world", (aka the UK and US where I used to travel for work). Thence in much later years, here in "Oz"again initially "in private" (as in not venturing out of the self contained apartments where they took place).
Latterly and as just posted, my first makeovers and solo shopping trip and "dinner out".
Both were wonderful, exhilarating and "freedom' experiences. Provided we "blend in" no one notices or cares who we are or what we look like.
Anyone of us who wants to look like Ru Paul and "go public". "Your choice, your decision" and hopefully you are "up" for the challenges such "actions and reactions" will bring.
Good luck

I had the most amazing evening! Just last night I was transformed into a beautiful woman, and my companion kept me out well past midnight. I was taken to a couple of different places, and I couldn’t imagine any way my evening could have been better.
At one point I said I needed to adjust my attire, and asked which bathroom I should use. I was reminded that I was in a gay bar with gay men, and lesbians. I was presenting as a woman so I had better use the women’s room. So I did, and I didn’t give it a second thought
I would encourage everyone to have this experience. It’s amazing!
