Love PVC

Firstly, thanks for the feedback about my blog. I hope in some way I've normalized this interest we have and for me personally, I know I have much more fun interacting with strangers while in girl mode.

Okay, I don't mind pushing fashion from time to time. I see a few crossdressers (in the USA) in 1880 dresses and wish I had similar, same for the 1950s, both seem like great times in fashion. I also love tight clothes and while latex is out of my price range, there's a pvc option which can be fun. Okay this top has a lining that makes it not so suitable for summer, but I think it will be worn quite regularly next winter.

It also looks nice when I'm in "boy mode" when I pretend to be a Chippendale stripper (wife giggles - like she's watching a strip show)

I was heading south this weekend and stopped into "The Base" in Hamilton for a brunch. Gee it's grown since I was last in the area.

Arrived back in Auckland on Sunday afternoon and my first stop was to get the carpets above my eyes (brows) trimmed. I think getting rid of that "old man" brows makes me look way younger in boy mode, and hopefully prettier in girl mode.

Girls life becoming mundane

 I started this blog to encourage others to get out.

It's probably done that as much as it ever will, so it's purpose has probably come to an end.

I do really enjoy it when you email or leave comments.

My girls life, is basically visiting cafes and shopping. I know there's more for Rachel, horse riding springs to mind real fast as does snow skiing, but with such a large family, finding time is nearly impossible.

This week I've had coffee and a light snack, visited shops, fell in love with 2 dresses at Mirrou, a fun mid thigh flirty dress and a similar longer elegant style, but saving for a trip with the wife so walked out heavy hearted and empty handed. A package arrived from China with a PVC looking top - that should be fun to wear at some time and a replacement for this old shiny black top I'm wearing in the first photo.

Dressing for summer, at last, worm enough for the thinnest of dresses.

Had one of those days

 I took Friday off to get my car fixed, booked in at 8am.

I got up early, spent a whole 15 minutes on makeup to look good, dressed casually and drove my car to the local dealer / service depot. Standing there in reception, with staff and other customers, only to find out the parts hadn't yet left the supply depot and was told they would update me in an hour. I had planned a nice 4 hour outing in girl mode, including a bus ride to the shopping center. So I decided to visit the local Bunnings, check out their garden center and have a coffee.

During my coffee, they told me parts will be there around 10.30. Wife had a 12pm task for me so I rang her up and told her I was heading home in girl mode (my boy clothes were in her car as I was expecting her to pick me up) and asked if we had any unscheduled visitors, she said the "coast is clear".  Once home, I got changed, had a second breakfast, then we both took a car back to the dealer, who has now seen me in both modes. Wife and I did a 2 hour job before heading back to pick up my car. Disappointed my 4 hour girl time became a 1 hour outing.

One day I will have time to be myself.

Earlier in the week, I had coffee on the way home from work, walk around the shops, tried on a very tight pink tee shirt (I think there's a reason most of my clothes are black), didn't like the look, visited the library, checked out the book shop, neither having the book I was after, then picked up milk on the way home.

Well, worn the blue skirt twice, that's hopefully enough for this month, I wonder if oldest daughter is giving away any of her clothes. One of my girls wants me to "get with it" and buy a pair of slides like hers. I'm unsure, but never say never.

Nervous but....

Nervous, like butterflies in my stomach.

Many many years ago, I tried to say hi to a fellow sister (crossdresser). Lets just say the experience made me very wary about trying to say Hi to others.

Well today, I actually had the balls to try it again and ended up with a very pleasant meeting with an attractive lady. I was still very nervous and probably scared of any silence between us, so I probably talked too much (way more than normal). At the end, I told her "I better take a photo of my outing" to prove to you that I got out today, then totally forgot about it until I got to the shops. I promised to pick up some bread this morning for a 9am breakfast. Had I known I was going to run into a sister, I probably would have spent a bit more time doing my makeup - actually, no matter how much makeup I use, it's not going to help at my age.

EARLIER in the week...

I had to grab some groceries, found chicken breasts at $10 a Kg, so got 3Kg - mostly for the cat and a few other bits I needed for dinner. Of course I was so exhausted, I needed a refreshing coffee at Columbus Coffee and read the newspaper while there (I'm sure shopping for groceries is exhausting and a reasonable excuse for coffee?).

But while at the Shopping Centre, I decided to see if there were any nice new shoes to be purchased. I bought flats last week for $9 at KMart and now the 3 inch heels I've enjoyed for a only a year are starting to  hurt me after a 100 meters. I realized this morning that my heels are a bit worn out and sloped on the Top Piece (I think I have a couple spare replacements somewhere). Anyway, I did find a nice pair with a wide 2 inch heel at The Warehouse.

With limited funds, I decided purchasing a camera cleaning kit was more important as a couple of lens I tried were covered in months of dust and there's a couple of nasty dots on my sensor, praying they are just dirt and not a sensor fault. 

The shoes remained on my mind all week so as soon as I got paid on Thursday, I was back in the shop and now I own too many pairs of shoes (2 heels and 2 flats, but no boots 😔).

I have a new project, I've been told the previous forms were done with Visual Studio, I'm like what's that? Opening it up, it's reminding me of some Visual Basic I did many years ago, so hopefully my old exposure might help but still suffering from impersonator syndrome when it comes to coding.
