Inspired to Dress Better
I’ve mentioned before that I’ve been a member of a local CD group for a few years now. I’ve found that to be immensely helpful in my ability to present a femme image.
“How so?” you ask.
Simply because I see how others dress, how they look and act n person, not just in carefully selected photos. I learn different things from each of them that help me identify areas where I can improve.
I know that finding and joining a local CD group is difficult for many. I suggest that you make the effort to do so, though. The result will be worth it for you. You’ll find kindred spirits. Inspiration. Opportunities. Doors will open. New experiences will present themselves. Your closet will enlarge.
The Girls Know
Somewhere in a movie (or tv show) I watched many years ago there was a brief story line that goes as follows. (Sorry for the pun to follow. No, actually I’m not. I love puns.) At any rate, the scene is back stage at a Las Vegas night club and the (male) managers are talking about the showgirls’ costumes and how expensive they are. At some point, one of the guys asks why they spend so much money for silk underwear for the showgirls since the audience can’t see the underwear.
The response was “The girls know.” Yes, it encourages them to move in a graceful, feminine way. That’s what the audience will see. The attitude. Remember that when you are out dressed. You know how the clothes feels and you will project that image more realistically. Remember, CDing is about more than just the clothes. It’s in your mind as well!
Another Letter
In what I hope is a neat segue into topic... I’ve mentioned in past posts about emails I get from readers. This one came from Daisy who asks if I have a favorite brand of panties. She loves the Maidenform and Vanity Fair brands. I must admit that I have tried them and several other brands, but my personal preference is Soma.
I can’t say it’s a very extensive comparison though. I like that the Soma underwear I buy has a rubberized strip around the waist and leg openings so that they stay in place and don’t ride up. I prefer the brief style of panties and don’t want them to turn into thongs! But that’s just my preference and perhaps it’s TMI. You need to do some experimenting on your own to find out what works best for you.
I’ll Be Back

a local cd group is just one more step but should not be the end point.think about getting out into society
ReplyDeleteJJ has been out beyond the CD group. I know because I've been out with her in different venues and she's very confident and presents beautifully as a woman!
DeleteI was always told dressing up would make me feel more successful. In male suits it always made me feel so uncomfortable though. Now in a nice dress or skirt, I feel as though I could take on the world!
ReplyDeleteAnd inspiration comes in some right surprising places. Without your inspiration JJ, I might have never written for Femulate myself, and I think that is what gave me the final push to get out in the world!

"The girls know." Yes we do. If I'm stuck in male mode too long and need a little soft and silky, I'll wear panties or hose (or a garter and stockings if I'm feeling frisky) under my drabwear...and just knowing they're there and feeling them against my skin brings me joy!
