older woman who is colorblind checking in here. sorry if its all a color mismatch. this was rhe only Halloween wig I could afdord because I am very bald. but I looked at myself in the mirror and couldn't stop smiling. i love all of you!!!
Are you kiddimg with the color blindness? The way you combined that BEAUTIFUL blue dress with such an intricate detail as blue nail polish combined really nicely. You look great girl, blue is your color <3
Dress fits you perfectly queen!
Empire waist is my favorite cut, very flattering. Very cute dress, you have good taste in clothes
Cute! I love that dress :)
Thank you!
I wish I knew how to type out the onomatopoeia of the happy squeal I made
squeeeeee!
The dress suits you so well!!!
Thank you, and it's actually two sizes two big, I was able to get another cute one in the right size and shipping this one back to get replaced with the right size. I measured myself based on the size chart online and i guess it was off by a bit lol
Congratulations and I'm glad you're here! :)
Thank you I am so happy to be here!
Hey youre looking great and thats a great dress on you.
Love the hair and glasses combo!
Thank you so much, I was anxious about the glasses before all of this, because I got them as a man to suit a man and I was worried they couldn't pull double duty. But then I got put together and realized they're not that bad at all. I do wish my head wasn't so friggin wide so I could have some slightly more feminine frames but que sera sera
I think that frame suits you very well, and I did not consider for even a second that it was not a woman's frame.
It's just the beginning of your journey, but you are already rocking it!
You look amazing! Welcome to the community :3
Thank you all for such a warm welcome. I've been here on blahaj for years on a different account, but now I'm really here. 😭
Hiiiiiii!!! Congrats on the HRT!!!!
Heyyyyyyyy! Thanks, it's glorious already!
Do you feel cold? First thing I noticed was the change in circulation.
No, actually, I was honestly shocked at how warm my feet and legs stayed, especially with how strange it feels to have them shaved after a lifetime of them being hairy.
I wonder if its because I already experienced a change in circulation in 2023 when I started taking dasatinib for my chronic myeloid leukemia and I stopped being warm all the time and started being cold all the time after that.
the cml is in remission I just am still in treatment until they're sure it's gone. i talked about this a lot more on my prior lemmy account, before I was, well, really me.
Gentle does not depend on your looks.
Gentle depends on what Linux distro you are using.
I love the wig. Good eye.
Nice fit. The glare on the floor makes it look like you're floating lol
Thank goodness for ugly 70s tiling! Thank you!
I love your outfit, it looks great for warm weather🩷
Looking good. Keep it going.
I kept it going so long I woke up on my bed and I had pulled the covers over myself, still wearing the dress.
Lovely dress and your feet & those look amazing!
I know that one of the main things I need to do is bring attention to my assets, so I'm going to spend a lot of time making sure my legs and feet are the center of attention.
let's go day 1! you are a golden goddess!!!
Holy shit, another colorblind trans girl?!
There are dozens of us!!! Dozens!!!!
If I can become a Lucille Bluth or a Maeby Funke, I'll have achieved everything I've ever dreamed of.
If you're ever wanting to match colors to something in the future, and you're okay with physically going into stores, you can bring the item and ask a sales person to help you. I worked in an accessory store ages ago, but my favorite task customers gave me was building a look around an item.
I love that silhouette on you, and I'm a little jealous of the freedom you gave with wigs :) Grats on your first doses!
I wish wigs felt like freedom, but I understand from my own experiences with my own hair when I still had it when I was young, sometimes it doesn't matter what you want to do with it, there's just no making it look how you want without having a different type of hair entirely, thickness, tensile strength, curliness, color all impact how hair is able to be styled.
Anyway, thank you for the tip on going in to stores. I don't live too far from more open minded areas, so I might be able to do that when I visit the west side of the state sometime.

clothing has two primary purposes: the functional purpose (keeping you warm/dry), and the "does this clothing make me happy" purpose. sounds like you found a perfect outfit!
Yes I did, thank you!
Everything is perfect! You look beautiful 💜
Everything is awesome! Thank you! 💜
Do you girl!
will do!
Slay Queen, go knock em dead.
I'm 6', entering my glamazon era? Thank you!!
Congrats, mission accomplished, good job deciding what would make life better and pursuing it, it will continue getting better from here! Also, the hair is a hot pink and the dress is a mix of greyish greens and blues, so the hair really pops!
