This Week's Outings 9/13/26

Monday 9/14/26:

While in the nearest "big" city on Saturday, we visited a couple thrift shops. In one of them, I found a pair of nude pantyhose (yawn), 2 pair of Fiore sensual stockings (getting warmer), and a brand new, tags-still-on, purple LulaRoe Nichole dress.

The Dress went into the laundry yesterday, and was hung up to dry (I never put any LulaRoe item in the dryer). As of this morning, it was dry and ready to wear, and that's just what I did.

Wait, I'm on nights this week, so what I actually did was sleep most of the day.

When I woke up, I showered, shaved, applied light makeup, and got dressed in a blue thong panty, a blue mesh bra, nude nylons and my new purple LulaRoe Nichole dress.

I threw on a silver anklet and a gray hoodie, slipped into my favorite patent Mary Janes, and headed for the car.

Before I could leave the house, I walked all the way around the house, to the curb, and pulled my trash cans back to the side of the house, where we keep them, then finished my circuit of the house to get into my car.

My goal was to visit my city's "municipal services" office to obtain a "large item" punch card, so I can get rid of a few large items (the city won't take them without a sticker. You can't get a sticker without a punch card). I drove to the office only to find that it was closed, so I proceeded onto the next leg of my trip.

I drove to my favorite purveyor of adult beverages, walked in, purchased a bottle of my favorite brown liquid, paid for it, and walked back out to my car.

Next, I drove to my mom's apartment. I gave her an old RCA tablet for Christmas last year, and told her it was meant to be used as a digital photo frame. Well, it's too old to have a version of Android capable of starting a slideshow app upon boot, so I had to take it back home to tackle this problem. Having done so, I returned the tablet to Mom, helped her reinstall Google Chrome on her new PC, heard her story of how the neighbor saw me in a dress the day before, and received a phone call from my lovely fiancee.

We were discussing, via text, what to get for dinner. We had settled on Chinese food. My plan was to leave Mom's at 5:10, pick up the food, and get home around 5:25, just before my fiancee, so the food would still be hot and I wouldn't face any questions about why I was returning from the Chinese restaurant (which doesn't have a drive-up window) in a dress.

Well, things done always go according to plan, and this was no exception. It was 4;43 when she called to tell me she was on her way home. I drove home, and ordered the Chinese food while she was driving. When I left to pick up the food, she was already home, so I had put on a pair of jeans over my dress and do the old switcheroo in the driveway after the garage door closed.

My fiancee had a headache, and went to lay down for a few minutes while I picked up dinner. Knowing this, I didn't bother to put the jeans back on when I got home. In fact, I walked into the house, set the food on the table, then went into the bedroom where she was laying, threw the jeans on my dresser, and changed my hosiery from the lovely nude pair I had received last week from Temu (which are sadly just a bit too short), to a black pair of Snag tights (they call this color "licorice") that I've discovered are almost as comfortable as a second skin.

This concludes my public crossdressing adventures for today.

This Week's Outings 9/6/26

Wow, so much emptiness since the last TWO post...

Wednesday 9/9/26:

What a spectacular day!

Today was the day I finally ditched my old laundry machines in favor of a nicer, newer set. My brother, who worked until 4pm, brought a truck and a little extra muscle. I brought the cash and a plucky attitude.

In the morning, I went to the local hardware store and rented their appliance dolly. I was wearing an autumn-themed LulaRoe Julia dress, white sheer pantyhose and black ballet flats. Unfortunately, upon arrival at the store, I noticed one of my town's biggest loudmouth drunks walking it, so I decided to put on my jeans, just to avoid hearing about it later.

After the hardware store, I went home and took the dolly out of the car. My plan was to bring the old appliances up from the basement and leave them in the garage until I knew for certain that the ne set worked. In order to do that, my car had to be parked outside the garage. By this time, the jeans were off and I was back to presenting a dress and white nylons.

I jumped in the car and drove it all the way to the front of the house, parking it on the opposite side of the street from my house. After I had walked from the car back to the garage, I realized that I hadn't gone to an ATM yet, to get money to pay for the new laundry set. So, keys and wallet in hand, I walked back out to the car, in full view of the neighborhood, climbed back inside and drove to the nearest fee-free ATM. The ATM was of the sit-in-your-car variety, so the whole withdrawal process went off without a hitch. 

Did I mention that my lovely fiancee was in the shower when I left for the ATM? Small detail, no worries.

When I got home from the ATM, it was time to change for my brother's arrival (he knows, but doesn't approve). 

Laundry machines fully swapped out, tested and ready, the old machines went to the curb, my brother went home, and I shoved the appliance dolly back into my car, shed my jeans, drove to the hardware store, walked around inside a bit, bought a new set of washer hoses, and went home.

It was at that point that I realized that my old laundry machines were sitting on the curb, but nobody knew it! After parking my car, I walked around to the front of the house, stood in the street and took photos of the old equipment, posting the on Facebook Marketplace when I got back into the house.

All in all, quite a bit of public crossdressing done in a single day, wouldn't you say? 

Tomorrow, I plan to wear the usual (thong panty, sexy bra, sheer nylons) to work, in addition to some light makeup (including concealer for the first time). Wish me luck! 

Satiation

When last I updated these digital pages, I lamented my inability to explore and enjoy my latest 2 Temu deliveries, because my lovely fiancee had taken off the same days as me.

Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony... (extra credit if you know where this quote is from)

Tuesday night, after my lovely had gone to bed (I intentionally stayed up), I opened both Temu packages, and just let myself enjoy the exploration of my new femme goodies.

It felt great, and I deserved it.

Frustration

I have Tuesday and Wednesday off from my job.

I also have 2 Temu orders, sitting in bags, on my love seat.

My plan was to wake up tomorrow (Tuesday), while my fiancee is at work, and unpack all the nylons, wigs, panties, makeup, etc, taking my time to enjoy each of the lovely new things I've bought. It was going to be so wonderful!

I also have planned to buy a new washer and dryer, which I intended to pick up tomorrow, along with a robot vacuum cleaner. I was planning to do all this while wearing a dress, nylons, girly shoes, makeup and jewelry.

"Was" being the key word.

You see, my lovely fiancee, unbeknownst to me, also has Tuesday and Wednesday off.

As wonderful as my fiancee is, she cannot stand the prospect of me wearing anything feminine outside our house. She has even gotten weird about me wearing sandals to the state fair with my polished toenails, even though the state fair is over 100 miles from where we live, and there's basically no chance of encountering anyone either of us knows in such a far-away place.

So, if I'm to do anything outside the house while wearing my femme effects, I have to be extra sneaky about it, and I just don't think I have it in me.

My next days off will be this weekend, Saturday through Monday. The problem there is that my fiancee also has weekends off. Plus, we're going to see Derrick Stroup on Saturday night in the same city the state fair is held in, which will turn into a full day, with no dress, no makeup, no girly anything.

Sure, I could wait an entire week and open my Temu packages next Monday, but why should I have to wait so long?

Because I'm engaged to someone who's ashamed of who I really am.

My frustration cannot be overstated at this point. 

Blue Nylon, Anyone?

On Monday, we wear blue!

I love blue nylons, and I try to wear them every Monday.

Today, I liked how my legs looked in my blue pantyhose, so I snapped a couple photos.

Now I present them to you, and hope you enjoy them.

This dress is quickly becoming one of my favorites

Do you like the blue tights? The anklet? The dress? My pedi? Do you like me? Please like me. LOL

I wore these blue nylons to work last night, under my ugly, awful pants, and will be wearing them to bed in short order. 

I'm also rocking a gorgeous black mesh bra and a sexy thong panty, not that you asked, but there it is... 

This Week's Outings 8/30/26

Sunday 8/30/26:

Having really enjoyed yesterday's outing, I decided to duplicate it today.

Upon my arrival home, I shed the awful work clothes I had been wearing all night, leaving me wearing only the thong panty, mesh bra and nude sheer pantyhose I will wear until it's time to rinse (shower) and repeat (go to work yet again). I then put a lovely silver anklet on my right ankle, slipped in my favorite ballet flats, and headed to the spare bedroom in search of a dress. I found a very pretty black a-line dress, with a pattern of small white diamonds, added a belt, and topped the ensemble off with a cute silver bracelet on my left wrist.

I then let my pup outside, and stepped boldly onto the walkway, walked it to the shared sidewalk, and stood there, awaiting adulation from the neighbors. When the adulation (again) didn't show, I grew bored and walked back up the walkway and into the house.

These neighbors had best tighten up... 

Thursday 9/3/26:

Every month, on the first Thursday of the month, there is a gathering of CD / TV / TG "girls" at a gay club about 45 minutes from where I live. I used to attend this gathering sporadically, and really looked forward to it, until I started feeling like certain attendees were shoving their political leanings down everyone's throats. 

I understand that, for reasons I won't discuss here, most people under the LGBT umbrella lean heavily to the left. I do not. I am a proud and patriotic conservative. However, I know that there are places and times when we leave politics at the door, and I believe this particular event to be one of those places. We don't gather to discuss politics. We gather to spend time with like-minded people, in a welcoming setting. At least, that's why I do it.

So I was soured on this event for that reason. Then I got sick. That was over 3 years ago. I haven't been since, until tonight.

I've been wanting to have a proper GNO (girls' night out) ever since I left the hospital, and haven't had the nerve to go through with it until today. There have been prior months, when I've decided to attend the "first Thursday" event, but backed out at the last minute. This time, my work schedule, my desire to be out, and my courage aligned perfectly, and I went!

I'd like to say it was enjoyable from beginning to end, but the truth is that it started very slowly and nearly fizzled out early on.

I'm a fairly introverted person. In a bar setting, if I'm not with someone I know well and am comfortable with, I tend to keep to myself. Well, I'm thankful for other people's boldness, because it saved my night. I was first approached by a newcomer, who has adopted the name Melissa. We had a very good conversation about going out, our origins, etc. Then, when I went to the bar for another drink, a very cute young person (I'm sorry, this person had an androgynous look male or female) named Erin. We had a short but very pleasant talk, and I went on my way.

Then I reconnected with Maggie, whom I had attended this event with before, even riding there together because we both live in the same town. We were catching up when we were interrupted by "Kat," who immediately brought politics into the event, saying that he'd run for a seat in the House of Representatives, and lost the primary, but had received 32% of the vote. I could have started a brawl at that very moment by voicing my opinions on all matter political, but I just walked away.

Other than the occasional insane outburst from Kat, the night went rather well. I'll definitely attend again. In fact, I promised Maggie I'd drive both of us to next month's event. 

Nylon Layers

I've mentioned a time or two that I'm a nylon enthusiast. 

Something I enjoy doing is layering different colored nylons, to see how they look.

Today, I layered nude control-top pantyhose over hot pink sheer stockings, and I just happened to have snapped a few photos...

Can you tell they're layered?

Love the reinforced toes!

Is it naughty to show the stocking tops? They're so pretty, it would be a shame not to show them

And finally, proof that they're layered!

This Week's Outings 8/23/26

Monday 8/24/26:

Our weekly trash collection is on Mondays. Since I worked nights last night, I decided to put my trash can out to the curb after getting home this morning, which I did, whilst wearing a floral LulaRoe Julia dress, black ballet flats and sheer blue nylons. 

Upon returning to the interior of my house, I realized that the kitchen trash bag was nearly full, so I extracted it from its can (or bin, as it may be known in some localities), tied it up and walked it out to the trash can already sitting on the curb, still wearing the same dress, hosiery and footwear.

At this point, if my neighbors haven't seen me outside in a dress yet, I'm convinced it's because they're intentionally forcing themselves not to look. I'm literally out there, at least as far as my front stoop, nearly every day, and I don't sneak around. I'm blatant about it.

Wednesday 8/25/26:

A couple weeks ago, I ordered a bottle of 9-year old bourbon, from a distillery in Michigan. I live in Wisconsin, which borders Michigan. Why it took so long for my bourbon to arrive from an adjoining state is a mystery to me, but not the point I'm trying to make. The actual point is that my bourbon was delivered yesterday while I was sleeping. The reason I didn't see it on my porch when I woke up and let my dog out is very simple.

It was delivered to the wrong address.

This is the problem living in a house whose front door doesn't face the street. It seems that every  dumbass, jackass and just plain ass who delivers things to places has delivered something meant for my house, to my neighbor's house. I mean, their house number ends in 18 and mine in 20, so you can see where the confusion would arise. You can't? Neither can I. It's just plain sloppy work. If you're too stupid or lazy to find the proper delivery address, maybe delivering things to places isn't the highest and best use of your talents.

Anyhoo, when I got home, I changed out of my work clothes and into a gray floral dress. I was already wearing the pink thong panty, the black half-mesh bra and the white sheer pantyhose under my work clothes. I added an anklet and my favorite black ballet flats, and proceeded to let the dog out, when I noticed that there was no package on my porch. So I left the comfort of my house and walked over to my neighbor's house, where, wouldn't you know it, I found my package.

I love being out in public, dressed in feminine things. I hate having to retrieve my parcels from my neighbor's porch. I'm always worried that someone will call the police and report me as a porch pirate. It hasn't happened yet, but I still worry about it every time. 

Friday 8/28/26:

Before going to work, I decided to try some nylon layering. First, I tried on sheer black pantyhose over the baby pink tights I slept in, but the black seemed to overwhelm the pink, and it didn't really show through, so I went back to the drawing board. The next combination was nude sheer pantyhose over hot pink lace-top stockings (you can see photos of this combination in this post). I was so impressed with how my nylon layers looked, that I wore them until it was time to get ready for work. So when I walked out to retrieve my mail, I was still wearing the layered legwear, with a gray LulaRoe Julia.

Saturday 8/29/26:

I wore a dark red thong, black mesh bra and gray sheer pantyhose under my work clothes all night, and traded my pants and t-shirt for a gray and black animal print dress upon my arrival home. When I let my pup out, as I do basically every day after work, I walked out with her, down my walkway, and onto the public sidewalk, where I stood for a moment, just to give the entire neighborhood a chance to say hello. Nobody said anything, so I walked back up my walkway and into my house. 

Maybe the neighbors aren't up at 6:30 am, and if they are, I imagine they're not in the mood for cheerful greetings. Oh well, at least my dog was happy to see me... 

This Week's Outings 8/16/26

Sunday 7/16/26:

Yesterday, after my walk, my fiancee and I got into the car and drove to the nearest "big" city, about 90 miles south of where we live. We spent the day there and had a blast. The problem was, when I got out of the shower prior to the trip, I put on all "male" clothing, and that's what I wore for the rest of the day.

When I woke up this morning, I was deep in regret. I changed before I ever left the bedroom, into a bra, panty and gray sheer pantyhose. I pulled on a t-shirt and a pair of pink biker shorts, and went about my day, much happier.

The first outing was when I went to Arby's for lunch. Whenever I can, I place food orders online, and pick them up inside the restaurant, and that's what I did, still wearing the above-mentioned outfit.

Later, I ran to the grocery store and picked up my grocery order, in the same outfit.

After that, I went home, showered, got dressed in panty, bra and glossy black semi-opaque tights, with a very colorful LulaRoe Nichole dress (I own several), which I'm still wearing as I type this entry.

Not exciting, but I enjoyed it... 

Saturday 8/22/26:

I took most of the week off from my bras and nylons, just for a refreshing change of pace. Then Saturday rolled around. 

Upon getting home from work (on night shift), I was anxious to get back into the femme goodies, so I quickly stripped off my work clothes, right down to my birthday suit, and replaced it with a pink microfiber panty, a black mesh bra and white sheer pantyhose. On top of all of it, a pink LulaRoe Julia with a pattern of small white flowers on it, and a silver anklet on my right ankle. 

Ahhhh, that's better! 

I woke up an hour earlier than I normally would, to go pick up our weekly grocery order. I debated wearing heels for the outing, but thought better of that idea when I realized I also had to stop and fill up my car's gas tank. So I put on my black ballerinas, a hoodie (somehow I feel like it's less shocking if people don't see the entire dress), grabbed my keys and headed for the door.

The grocery pickup went as smoothly as it always does. I was only out of the car for a few seconds to open the back door -- if you don't open the back door, they assume you want the groceries in the rear cargo area, rather than the back seat). Groceries picked up, I drove to the gas station, picked a pump I rather liked, and hopped out of the car to pump my gas. Nothing happened while I was fueling, but I could feel eyes on me, judging me, for almost the entire time. After I had collected the receipt, I had one more stop to make.

I like to order from Hardee's (those in the western US would know it as Carl's Jr) every now and again, and since it was on my way home, I placed an online order. I don't know about other locations, but this particular Hardee's always has my order ready, waiting on the counter when I get there, even if I order it from their parking lot. Maybe they're psychic... Anyway, I walked into the lobby, past the 2 employees loitering thereabouts, grabbed my bag and cup from the counter, and walked right back out to my car. If any of the Hardee's personnel noticed the pink dress or the white nylons, they didn't let on.

And that's it. I drove home, ate my Frisco Burger, drank my Diet Dr. Pepper, then jumped in the shower to go to work.

Oh, and to work, under my work clothes, I wore a black cotton animal-print panty, red mesh bra (yummy!) and a brand new pair of Nude control-top pantyhose, fresh out of the freezer. Yes, I put my pantyhose in the freezer a day or 2 before I take them out of the package. I read somewhere that it strengthens the fibers or some such thing. Even if that's not true, how cool is it opening your freezer and finding a couple pair of nylons looking back at you? 

This Week's Outings 8/9/26

I realize I haven't been updating the weekly outings posts as much as I should, but that's because I haven't had the time or opportunity to actually engage in any outings, as my work / home life have been rather hectic. I could post each day saying I walked out on my porch wearing a dress, but that's boring. Even my neighbors would yawn at such fluff, so I don't post it here. 

Rest assured, when an outing happens, I'll document it here...

Wednesday 8/12/26:

After not having an outing since last week (I didn't go to the event last Thursday night, BTW), I was feeling down, so...

After getting out of the shower, I did my usual grooming (comb hair, shave, deodorant), and decided I wanted more, so I put on concealer, foundation, eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara. I also filled in my brows and highlighted my brow bone. 

When quite pleased with the makeup look, I slipped into a pink thong panty, a new pink front-closure bra with black hearts all over it, white sheer pantyhose, an anklet and a LulaRoe Nichole dress I can only describe as "colorful." I then drove to the local grocery store, which I intentionally walked through very slowly, smiling and greeting people as they passed. When done, I went home.

At bedtime, I took off my makeup and my bra, put on a brand new, frilly, pink sleep dress, and drifted off to sleep. 

What fun! 

Thursday 8/13/26:

Aside from the fact that I wear panties, bra and pantyhose under my "male" clothes at work every day, I also wear minimal makeup. By "minimal," I mean a light coat of mascara (I already have pretty lashes - nobody notices if they're slightly prettier) and a shot of my Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil (shade "Milk") on the inner corners of my eyes, which gives a more "awake" look. Today at work was no exception, although I should have blended the white eye pencil a bit better.

Once home from work, I slipped out of my work-wear and into a pair of black Noosh seamless tights, a silver anklet and a white / gray LulaRoe Julia dress, paired with my favorite black patent pumps. Once in my home outfit, I walked out onto my front porch to retrieve a package. Pretty tame...

A bit later in the evening, I realized that one of the mouse traps I have set at the entrance to our crawlspace had an occupant, and had to take it out to the trash, still in my dress, nylons and heels.

Not exciting, not all that brave, but a public outing all the same. 

Tomorrow, I plan to wake up 45 minutes early, throw on this same dress (and bra), with my "guy" sneakers, and head out for a 30-minute walk. I've been putting on weight lately, and this is one aspect of how I'm going to slim back down. Wearing a dress while walking is the incentive. It satisfies my goal of venturing out in my femme finery at least once per day, and will hopefully result in my dresses and nylons fitting better before too long.

Friday 8/14/26:

As planned, I woke up early, slipped back into my bra and dress, put on my Nikes and a hoodie, and headed out into the neighborhood. I only walked for 20 minutes, but kept thinking about how glossy and noticeable my black Noosh Play Gloss tights were. I know that's strange, because I regularly go out into public places wearing similar outfits, and never care who notices or what they think. For some reason, being "out" in my own neighborhood hit different.

Of course, I'll do it again (and again and again), because I want to get back to my goal weight and because it's exhilarating to be out in public wearing a dress and nylons, even after all these years of doing it.

Saturday 8/15/26:

I hopped out of bed at 6am, ditched my sleepwear in exchange for bra and dress, jumped into my sneakers and hoodie, and walked out of the house for another 20-minute walk.

The difference this time is the time. Yesterday, I did this around 3am, when it was still dark. Today, there was plenty of light, and it was obvious I was wearing a dress (especially this dress - it stands out a bit). I encountered 2 pedestrians, one of whom gave me a long look, but it wasn't a problem, and rarely ever is.

This walk was bittersweet for me. If you've read this blog, you know that I'm a nylon enthusiast, to put it lightly. Well, the last time I wore my Everswe nude pantyhose, they developed a run, so I had to toss them. Yesterday, I pulled out a new pair and wore them to work, then to sleep. Apparently, I didn't pull them up correctly, because I woke up to notice them coming apart at the crotch seam. I knew they felt a little saggy in the crotch yesterday, but I attributed that to them being new and needing to stretch. So, to my beloved Everswe nude pantyhose, you will be remembered fondly, but I'll have to pitch you in just a few minutes.

As soon as I got home from my walk, I was ordering 6 more pair of these wonderful nylons. At just over $3 a pair, the quality is astounding, and they feel nice and silky. I don't want to run out...

Silly Blunder

In the last week or so, in my ongoing efforts to boldly appear in the world as my authentic self, I've picked up a new habit.

I won't bore you with a big lead-up and a lame reveal. I'll just proceed with the lame reveal...

I've been wearing a small amount of makeup each day at work. Nothing extreme. Nothing even noticeable. Usually, just a very light layer of mascara and a touch of white on the inner corners of my eyes. As I said, nothing noticeable, but I know it's there. 

It makes me feel edgy and brave to wear makeup nobody will notice. I know, I'm weird.

On my days off, I'm a bit bolder, often wearing eye shadow, eyeliner, foundation, concealer, etc. I haven't worn a "full face" of makeup yet, but I hope to remedy that very soon.

Usually, I'll quickly brush on some mascara and draw some white on my inner corners with my Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil when I'm fresh out of the shower, to give the mascara time to dry before I put my glasses on. 

Anyway, I was in such a hurry to get ready for work today that I completely spaced and didn't apply any makeup.

When I realized that I wasn't wearing any makeup, about 8 hours into my 12-hour shift, I was rather disappointed. I promised myself that I would go hog wild with makeup when I got home (which I didn't), and that I would never forget to wear makeup to work again.

That's complete rubbish, by the way. I know I'll forget again in the future, but not soon, and hopefully not often. 

This Week's Outings, 8/2/26

Sunday 8/2/26:

Today I stepped out a little bolder than usual. 

First, while my lovely fiancee was asleep, I showered, slipped into a cute panty and sports bra, pulled on a lovely pair of black sheer-to-waist pantyhose, added a cute anklet and a pretty LulaRoe Julia dress. Then I slipped on my favorite pair of ballet flats and headed out the door.

The trip wasn't very long, but I went to the local grocery store, then to my favorite Kwik-E-Mart for a lovely energy drink, and finally to Walgreens to exchange my empty propane tank for a full one (I had to stop back home first, as I forgot the empty propane canister the first time out). All that done, I headed home.

Later, our landlord finally got our garage door fixed, so I went out to the street (still wearing the same ensemble) and moved both of our cars into the garage, then took our trash cans out to the curb.

All in all, quite visible today, and I have even more planned for tomorrow...

Monday 8/3/26:

I had planned to have several outings today, and practice my makeup techniques, but things rarely go according to plan...

After showering, I put on my underthings, glossy sky blue tights, anklet, and a pretty blue, yellow and pink pastel mini-dress. Honestly, this dress is shorter than I like, and definitely shorter than a person my age should wear, but I love it, so I'm wearing it.

I had a grocery order to pick up, so I slipped into a pair of patent Mary Janes, jumped in the car and drove to the store. The pickup was very routine, and afterward I drove home.

I have to provide a little backstory for the next part...

Last September, the ceiling in our bathroom collapsed. due to a leak in the upper apartment (we live in a house that was converted into an upper / lower rental). Our slumlord (no, not a typo), in true slumlord fashion, hired one of his prison buddies (I wish I were making this up) to fix the leak and repair our bathroom. Remember, the ceiling collapsed last September, almost a year ago. The slumlord's prison buddy left a ladder, and some tools sitting in our bathroom, which I moved to the garage, with the sheet of drywall he also left. So, back to today's outing...

Before I unloaded the car, I decided I'd had my fill of prison buddy's property in my garage, so I slid the drywall outside and leaned it against the garage wall (still in my dress, nylons, etc), then proceeded to unload the car and put the groceries away.

To finish off the day's outdoor activities, I walked out to the curb, dragged my trash cans back to their customary spot next to our screen porch, then walked back into the house. 

Thursday 8/6/26:

Tonight was going to be the "First Thursday" GNO (Girls' Night Out), but I decided not to go, due to my own horrid makeup skills and the fact that my favorite wig has been sitting for 4 years, and is honestly beyond saving. So I'll buy a new wig, work on my makeup techniques, and try to make it to next month's GNO.

In the hustle and bustle of getting ready, before I decided not to go, I was out and about a couple times...

First, I went to Walgreens, in search of pink eye shadow, which proved fruitless. I should have gone to (c)Ross Dress For Less or TJ Maxx, or even ordered a decent palette online weeks ago. 

After Walgreens, I went to a nearby credit union and withdrew some cash for the evening.

All the while, wearing a basic black dress and glossy sheer nude pantyhose layered over hot pink stockings, with my black patent Mary Janes. I was also wearing a nearly full face of makeup, not that anyone would notice...

Later,  after I had showered and made the decision to stay in, I ran to the grocery store to stock up on a few items, wearing a black, blue and white tie-dye-ish dress, glossy nude tights and the same patent Mary Janes.

Not quite the outing I had planned for today, but not bad, either. 

This Week's Outings, 7/26/26

My failure to update last week has led me to a decision.

I'll update these "what I wore outside this week" posts, on the days I actually ventured out into the world. Otherwise, it feels like a chore and I get bored with it pretty quickly. 

Monday 7/27/26:

Today was a very bad day. A tornado tore through my area, and missed my house by less than a mile. 

In the storm, I ran out do get my trash can out of the street, wearing a pair of pink biker shorts over blue sheer tights. My fiancee was home at the time, and saw me do the whole thing.

I should be happy, but this storm caused a lot of damage and ruined a lot of lives. It's going to take a long time to rebuild. 

Wednesday 7/29/26:

I had grand designs to go out into the world today, in my femme attire, but since I worked 8 12-hour shifts in a row (which ended Tuesday morning), I've been feeling rather lazy. I stayed home the entire day, with one very small exception...

Because of Monday's storm, and the resultant loss of electricity, I was forced to disconnect my garage door opener in order to get my car out of the garage and go to work. My fiancee decided to try to reconnect it when the power was restored, but things went sideways, and the garage door was stuck closed for 2 days, with my fiancee's car trapped inside. Our landlord was able to get the door opening and closing, but a part is required to get the opener working again. That being the case, my lovely has elected to park her car on the road until the garage opener is working again. 

We have "odd even" parking in our city, which means that you're allowed to park your car on the street overnight, as long as it's parked on the correct side of the street. If the date (before midnight) is even, you park on the side of the street with the even-numbered houses, and vice versa if the date is odd.

I explained all that to tell you this: My fiancee parked her car on the wrong side of the street. So, before 2am (when odd-even enforcement starts), I ran out, wearing the LulaRoe Julia dress and white sheer nylons I had been wearing all night, and moved her car from the even side to the odd side. 

Wow! What a long-winded way to say I walked out to the street and back. LOL! 

Friday 7/31/26:

I woke up an hour early and ran to the local Walgreens, to pick up a prescription and to find a decent mascara, as I'd lost the Dollar Tree mascara I bought last week. I suppose it's for the best. A person shouldn't wear $1.25 mascara, or any $1.25 makeup, anyway.

So I walked out to my car, still parked on the street, wearing a blue and gray LulaRoe Julia dress, nude pantyhose layered over hot pink holdup stockings, and a hoodie, then drove to Walgreens, where I picked up my prescription without a problem (as usual) and spent more time than necessary looking at mascara. When I found one I quite liked, I walked to the checkout, paid for it and went back home, where I walked back into the house, tried on the new mascara (loved it), then jumped in the shower to get ready for work. 

This Week's Outings, 7/19/26

Sunday 7/19/26:

I woke up today wearing the same Noosh seamless tights (in the shade "storm") from yesterday, and a leopard-print nightie. I threw on a pair of black patent 4" heels and sat on the front porch for about 10 minutes while my dog did her outside business.

Not every day can be a crossdressing adventure, but I can try to be visible a little bit every day.

Tomorrow, Monday, 7/20/26, is a work day. I may or may not wear panty, bra and nylons under my work clothes (leaning toward "may"), but I plan to make some sort of public appearance before getting ready for work. I'll keep you posted! 

Monday 7/20/26:

Before heading off to work, I slipped into a lovely black mesh bra and my customary Monday hosiery (blue, for Blue Monday), then pulled on my work clothes over it all and went to work. I wasn't able to have any kind of public outing, due to my fiancee being home and awake. But off to work I went, in my panties, bra and blue pantyhose!

Tuesday 7//21/26:

Upon arriving home from work, I ditched my drab work clothes and slipped into a spectacular blue floral LulaRoe Cici (dress), then went outside and dragged my trash cans in from the curb. Public outing, check! I was pleased to see that my Shein order was delivered yesterday, and I'll be very happy to try on the romper I know is inside that package, to sleep in today (with pantyhose under it, of course).

Wednesday 7/22/26:

I don't have much to report today. I got home from work, stripped off my boring work clothes, down to my panties, bra and white sheer nylons, pulled on a pair of pink capris and a t-shirt, then let my pup out and sat on the porch while she took care of her business. So I guess that counts as an outing. I'll make it up tomorrow, scout's honor...

Conclusion:

Wow! I guess daily updates only work if you do them...daily.

Sorry I haven't been updating.

The rest of the week was pretty standard stuff -- sitting / standing on the porch in a dress and nylons, waiting for the pup to finish sniffing and whatnot.

I'll try to do better next week! 

Awesome Find

Did you know about rompers? If you did, and didn't tell me, shame on you!

I order from Shein quite often.  For the most part, their selection of women's attire is affordable, decently made and fits well (if you order 1 size up). The only exception is their hosiery, which is gorgeous, silky and feels great, but falls down, regardless of the size I buy. Being an insatiable nylon nerd, it breaks my heart, but life must go on...

Lately, I've been buying sleepwear from Shein, and I'm quite happy with the nighties and sleep shirts. Aside from the tags, which are huge and impossible to rip off, they're very comfy and look great. I slept in one today, a pink leopard print baby doll. So comfy!

Anyway, long story long, I saw a romper I thought was cute, so I bought it. It arrived with a shipment yesterday, and I didn't wear it to bed, because it's a one-piece garment with no opening in the crotch, and I get up to use the bathroom at least once every night, so....who wants to take a romper completely off just to pee, then put it back on?

When I woke up, I was anxious to try on the new romper, and I did. Holy cow, I'm in love! This thing is extremely comfortable, fits me perfectly, and the legs are just long enough to cover the control top of my pantyhose (yes, I'm a pantyhose freak and I wear them 24/7). 

In case you want to check out the romper, or possibly buy one for yourself, click this link. I don't get any kind of commission, so no pressure. I'm off to shop for more of these!

The romper I bought (and I'm wearing now) is pink with gray leopard spots. I couldn't find a photo of it because this color and size is sold out. But it looks just like this one, in pink.

Also, I'm not the person in the photo wearing the romper. My God, to have those curves... 

This Week's Outings, 7/12/26

Sunday, 7/12/26:

I don't remember what I wore, or where I went. Exciting start to this new series!

Monday, 7/13/26:

I didn't wear anything feminine outside (or inside) today. Sorry to be so boring!

Tuesday, 7/14/26:

Today is a day off from work. Since I had no outings, and didn't even wear anything girly yesterday, I decided to wear my favorite blue pantyhose, with black panties, a black mesh bra, and a pretty blue, black and white tie-dye-ish swing dress. I normally like to wear blue nylons on Monday, but, as I've already admitted, I didn't wear any nylons of any sort on Monday, so I wanted to honor the weekly wearing O' the blue today. 

I only had one outing today, but it was extensive. First, I had an Amazon return to take care of, so I threw a gray hoodie on (I've found that people gasp less when they see me this way, as opposed to realizing that I'm wearing a dress. The hem of the dress and the very glaringly nylon-covered legs protruding from it are somewhat less off-putting when you can convince yourself that it's shorts, or some such thing. Anyway, the hoodie keeps the peace, so I rock it), and drove to Kohl's to make the return.

Apparently, Kohl's doesn't accept Amazon returns at the Customer Service counter anymore. Nope, you have to walk through the entire store, to the back corner, and interact with a store employee standing in the middle of the toy aisle. Anyway, I walked through the entire Kohl's store, twice, and headed back to my car.

Next, to Walmart, which is conveniently next door to Kohl's. My baby needs dog food. In and out with the dog food is no problem. With the exception of a poor woman whose kids decided to start screaming as she approached the checkout, Walmart was uneventful.

The next stop in the Tuesday outing took me to the eyeglass place where I bought my new glasses last Friday. The nose pads that came with them were hurting my nose, so I tried to replace them with a pair of soft pads I'd ordered from Amazon years ago. I was able to change one, but couldn't get the screw out of the other, so I figured the glasses place would be able to finish what I couldn't.

After standing at their counter for about 15 minutes, being gawked at by some old woman who couldn't keep her jaw off the floor, I was informed that they didn't have a screw that would fit with my pads, so they put on their version of "soft" pads, and out the door I went.

Next up was the Dollar Tree, to pick up some makeup remover wipes. I caught a few looks walking around the store, but things like that don't bother me anymore. Also, walking around Dollar Tree is a trap. Everything is cheap, so temptation is everywhere. I got my makeup remover wipes, but I also got a toenail clipper, a little mop thing for cleaning the inside of my car's windshield, a mascara and a 2-tone cream eyeshadow stick. All I wanted was the makeup wipes. Sheesh.

BTW, I tried out the cream eyeshadow stick shortly after I got home, and it isn't worth the $1.25 I paid for it. Oh well, I'm out $1.25, and had a new experience.

After Dollar Tree, I ordered lunch from McDonald's, for curbside pickup, and went home to eat my Quarter Pounder and drink a lovely Diet Dr. Pepper. I'm sure the guy (short, black guy, probably in his late 50's, with painted fingernails) saw my blue legwear, and more power to him if he did. Also, he's awesome for wearing nail polish to work. I wish I could pull that off...good on ya, my guy.

Wednesday 7/15/26:

Sadly, I wasn't in the mood to wear anything feminine, outside the house or otherwise. Someone has once again set fire to Canada, and my little corner of Wisconsin is engulfed in smoke. That sort of thing doesn't really inspire a person to dress up and flit about.

Sorry.

Thursday 7/16/26:

The wildfires continue to burn. I didn't venture out in any of my femme finery, mostly due to the fact that I worked 12 hours in this ridiculous heat and smoky haze, and just didn't have the time. However, upon returning home from work, I slipped into a panty, bra and white sheer nylons, and went outside to check my mail, which could be considered an outing, I suppose.

Tomorrow is another day, and the wildfires are still going to be burning, but I'll strongly consider wearing bra, panties and pantyhose under my "male" clothes at work. No promises, but if I don't, I'll likely slip into them at home and have some sort of outing. 

Friday 7/17/26:

Today I decided that enough is enough, and after 2 days of denying my sissy impulses, I went to work wearing bra, panty and nude pantyhose under my work clothes. What an incredible feeling that was!

Upon returning home, I exchanged my work pants and t-shirt for a sparkly silver Lula Roe Nichole dress, pulled a hoodie on over it and headed back out to the liquor store, to buy a bottle of my favorite whisky. 

So ends my public crossdressing for today, but fear not! I will venture forth in a dress again tomorrow, as sure as the sun will rise. 

Saturday 7/18/26:

We have, in the past couple years, been ordering our groceries online and picking them up at the store. The stores shop for the items and bag them up, then put them into the car, at no additional cost, so it's basically a no-brainer for the time and effort it saves us.

Anyway, I went to pick up our groceries wearing the same silver Lula Roe Nichole, sans hoodie, with Noosh seamless tights in the shade "storm" and black / pink Under Armour Ignite slides. I was only publicly exposed for about 30 seconds when I got out of my car to open the back door for the store employee, but I guess that still counts. 

A New Gimmick!

Every day, I challenge myself to appear in public, wearing pantyhose / tights / stockings and a dress or skirt, even if only for a few moments. It's a fun little game, and it has helped me be less nervous and shy.

It occurred to me today that I have no accountability mechanism in place for this daily challenge, so I decided that I'm going to blog about it.

It would be easy to just post a new blog entry every day, but I feel like that would become cumbersome for anyone reading the blog, so here's the plan:

Each week, I'll create a post, titled "This Week's Outings," with that Sunday's date. I'll do my very best to update it each day with what, when and where, just to remain accountable.

This will be the first week, and I'll probably start from today, since I don't quite remember what I wore on Sunday, or where I went in it.

So if that sort of thing interests you, please enjoy reading it. If not, you know what to skip now. The more you know... 

The Weekend

What? It's Wednesday? And weekends start on Saturday?

Pish posh.

At my job, we work a 2-2-3 swing. I just finished 2 days on, so now I get 2 days off. That's a weekend, no matter what day it starts on...

Anyway, since I get a weekend in the middle of the week, I've decided to do something with it. 

I have an eye exam scheduled for tomorrow. I will attend while wearing a pretty dress, glossy nude tights, a choker, and dangly earrings, along with my patent leather Mary Janes. If I'm feeling especially daring, I'll wear a choker, and apply a generous portion of mascara. If they're able to make my glasses the same day, I'll return in the same outfit to pick them up. Before that, I'll need to run to Wally World and pick up some food for my pup, in the same outfit, of course. If I find time, I'll stop by a thrift shop or 2, just to round out the day.

Friday, I have an appointment with my retina specialist, to receive another round of injections (directly in each eye), to which I'll wear my customary outfit -- a lovely dress with pink tights and my patent Mary Janes. I won't be able to wear any makeup to that appointment, but i can stop just short. Anyway, jewelry, nylons and dresses are perfectly acceptable on injection day, so I'll take full advantage of that. I'm also taking my aunt to breakfast before this appointment, as a show of gratitude to her for driving me to and from my appointment. I could drive myself there, but driving home would be a problem, as my eyesight is usually compromised to some degree after the injections. A couple times, I was completely blinded by the injections, for about half an hour. It was terrifying.

I've considered wearing heels to one or both appointments, but I think what I already have planned is plenty. There is no need to go over the top with the femme presentation.

Public Crossdressing Weekend (PCDW) is here! 

Who am I kidding? Every day off is a public crossdressing occasion! I'm addicted to the rush of it. I know people notice, and I'm certain they chuckle and talk behind my back, but I don't care. I love being out in the world as my authentic self. 

How'd That Go?

The latest challenge...

It came and went without issue. 

Honestly, it was too easy.

Wearing a bra and panties is an everyday thing for me anyway.

Wearing pantyhose to work was strange at first, but even that began to feel normal before too long.

In fact, since the challenge has ended, I've had the option of leaving the panties, bra and pantyhose at home when I go to work, which I did for 1 day. I was so used to wearing all my femme undergarments, that I didn't feel right without them. Thus, I have worn the panty, bra and nylons every day since.

So I guess the challenge produced an unintended result, afterall.

Now I feel out of place if I'm not wearing a panty, a bra, and a pair of pantyhose, at all times, even to bed. 

Even when pulling the trash can in from the curb in front of my neighbor (see previous post)...

Fun With Neighbors

Our neighborhood trash pickup was yesterday, and my trash can was still out at the curb, where the city empties them for us, once per week.

First thing this morning, when I let my dog outside to handle her "outside" business, I walked out to the curb and retrieved the trash can.

As I was pulling the can back to the side of my house (which is at the rear of the property), my neighbor walked out of her house and sat on her porch.

I was probably 5 feet from her, or closer. We share a yard.

Normally, this wouldn't be an event, except...

I was wearing a dress, glossy nylons and ballet flats at the time.

Oopsie!

Oh well, it's not like the neighbors have never seen me in a dress before. I don't exactly hide it from the world.

Just a fun, semi-exciting start to my day off... 

The Home Stretch

No, I'm not talking about stretching your nylons before putting them on, though that's a popular practice.

What I'm referring to is the last few days of the latest challenge.

I know I was supposed to end the challenge already, but I extended it, for reasons that shall remain entirely my own.

Anyway, having worn panties, a bra and pantyhose 24 hours a day since the beginning of this challenge, I'm relieved that the finish line is only 2 days away.

I'll be relieved that I'm no longer required to wear pantyhose, but not that I won't be wearing them. In fact, I'll likely be wearing them just as much, because I love them so.

 I feel like I'll take Friday off, since it's my birthday, and only wear panties. On Saturday, that goes out the window and I'm back in a bra and pantyhose, but not to satisfy any challenge. No, I'll wear those incredible, amazing feminine undergarments simply because it makes me feel very happy to do so.

Another Nylon Challenge

Every once in a while, when the mood strikes me, I'll participate in some sort of challenge, just for my own entertainment. Being that I'm a nylon freak, most of these challenges involve wearing pantyhose, usually for a certain number of hours, or days, or whatever. 

Well, the mood has struck me once again, so I'm instituting another challenge, and yes, in a twist a school full of blind kids could have seen coming from a mile away, it involves wearing pantyhose. Hey, I'm predictable, but I'm fun...

The challenge is simply this: wear panties, bra and pantyhose at all times, even under my "man" clothes, every hour of every day, starting today and ending when I wake up on June 2nd. There are no exceptions, even at my job. With the obvious exception of showering, this is a 24/7 challenge. 

I know this sort of thing is silly, but I love doing it anyway. 

Why am I posting it on my blog? Because I don't post to the blog often enough, and I enjoy sharing these little insights into my deviant thought process. 

Maybe nobody reads this. Maybe thousands do. It's somewhat exciting to consider the possibilities...

To start the challenge, I'll tell you what I'm wearing now, and have been since I got out of the shower yesterday:

I'm wearing pink cheeky panties, a purple sports bra, black Noosh Play Gloss tights and my latest obsession - pink biker shorts that I bought from Shein. 

I'll try to remember to post updates about this challenge as it goes on.

Wish me luck! 

Review Update: Les Belles

Last month, I posted a review of Les Belles tights. To sum up, I was impressed with the quality, but the sizing was way off.

I reached out to Les Belles and explained the situation to them.

The Good

A very nice customer service rep sent me 3 more pair of Les Belles tights in the next larger size, free of charge. 

The Bad

Upon receipt of the 2nd shipment, I was eager to try them on, which I did.  According to Les Belle's own website, the size I received this time is too big for me, and should be baggy on me. Unfortunately, this was not the case. 

Once again, the tights seem to be of excellent quality, but they're SHORT. They weren't sliding off my butt within the first  5 minutes like the previous Les Belles offering. This pair took almost 2 hours before the waistband slid into the nether regions, taking my underwear with it, much to my annoyance.

The Ugly

When I initially emailed Les Belles regarding the problems I'd had with the tights, I received an automated response, promising that I would hear from an actual CSR within 24 hours.

A week later, I sent another email, which was ignored.

A week after that, I sent another email, with the magic title, "Have you given up on order #12345?" This is a technique I learned from the book "Never Split The Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It" by Chris Voss. Thanks, Chris. This stuff really works.

Within a day, I was in touch with the aforementioned very nice CSR, and within 3 days my 2nd Les Belles shipment was en route. 

Conclusion

Once again, I really wanted to love Les Belles tights. Once again, I was disappointed. Maybe I'll give them another try in the future, if they get their sizing figured out and their customer service up to a respectable level.

Until then, Au Revoir, Les Belles. 

More Nylon Content?

Last month, I posted 4 hosiery reviews, because it's a subject near and dear to my heart, and because, looking at the analytics for this blog, it's the most popular subject among the readers of the blog.

I know I need to start driving more traffic to the blog to get an accurate response, but I'm curious, are you, the readers, enjoying my hosiery reviews?

Please feel free to leave a comment and let me know if you enjoyed the pantyhose reviews, and what sort of content you'd like to see on this blog.

 PS: I contacted Les Belles, and they're re-shipping my entire order, minus the "sheer shimmer" style, which is out of stock. I'll re-review the Les Belles experience when those arrive. Maybe Les Belles will overshadow Noosh. 

With pantyhose, anything is possible.
