Outfit for 5-11-15 – Zippers!

May 11, 2015

Skirt – H&M Top – Charotte Russe Sweater – 89th & Madison Shoes – Guess Belt – Mossimo I got this skirt a little bit ago at H&M and absolutely love the zippers on it.  The zippers totally sold me on the skirt. I love the look of them and that it adds a little bit of edge to it.  But I struggle a bit with my body image while wearing skirts that have that little bit of flare at…

Spousal Acceptance

April 25, 2015

There are often a vast number of factors involved in how one’s spouse will react to a reveal of being transgender.  And I cannot possibly be an expert on all possible spousal responses to such a personal and delicate manner.  All I do know is how things have gone with my spouse.  I have lived this life and am quite aware of what it has taken to get to where I am. And to get to where I am has…

April 20, 2015

Dress – White House Black Market Shoes – Taryn Oh goodness, I SO love this dress.  I love the fit of this dress so much, I bought a 2nd one that is basically the same dress, just black with white polka-dots.  But I like this one a little bit more than the other one.  This is my favored one because I there is something about this dress that immediately made me less self conscious of my arms. Arms are one…

It’s certainly another side of things that I’m enjoying reading about.If it’s okay to ask, you look very authentic but I was wondering if this doesn’t bother your wife? I like being part of a heterosexual couple and I like…

Coming Clean to A Coworker!

March 26, 2015

For about 7 months now, I have been mentoring a new worker at my job, and she is fabulously talented at what we do.  I wish I was as good as she is when I started.  Her passion and drive is truly admirable. Many of you are aware that I have been going to work for many years now with my nails painted all of the time.  No, I don’t just go for clear, or muted tones, I go for…

Workplace Ignorance and Acceptance!

February 23, 2015

I had an interesting discussion with my boss today. I found myself sitting in my bosses office with my head supervisor and 2nd in charge supervisor, and I slightly dissociated from myself and heard myself say: “Well I do consider myself to be transgender and another employee has gone to my intern and informed them that she does not “approve” of my “lifestyle” and that it is highly inappropriate to come to my workplace with my fingernails painted.  I am…

Outfit for 2-9-15 – Tall Boots

February 9, 2015

Sweater – Ann Taylor Leggings – American Apparel Boots – Nine West Belt – Mossimo Coat – Guess Today’s outfit objective was to wear my tall boots.  I really like them but have not worn them in quite awhile as I have a tough time figuring out a good look for them.  I often do not like the segmentation of my body.  Normally the boots are really tall and my top is kind of low.  This leave a very small…
