I'm not expecting this picture to generate much interest at all here on Flickr. The reason I'm posting it is I am at heart a man who who wanted to be an actress. I wanted to play female roles. What this means is I enjoy experimenting with make-up, wigs and female outfits.
The reality is I am rubbish at acting but as I get older I fear missing out on my dream of taking on female roles. Some may cringe and squirm at my admission of wanting this and though I think I may well invite ridicule I simply had to try it out, albeit in private.
I have always liked the look of the business woman and female lawyers. Their outfits are stylish and admittedly prim and somewhat severe. I think the mix of primness with make-up, bright red lipstick and smooth shaved legs and high heel court shoes is a mix of femininity and confidence and I do find it rather sexy.
On Sunday, having had my first cross-dressing opportunity in ten months I had a desire to try out the severe lawyer appearance I enjoyed putting on the make-up, finding a suitable wig and skirt suit and felt the final touch to get the look was to adopt a less than impressed aloof haughty expression on my face and fasten up the top button on my shirt.
It is not a pretty feminine look but I felt quite the woman when I stood in front of the mirror and ruined the prim severity by smiling at my reflection. Having finally got into character and wiped the smile of my face, I took a photo. I'm going to admit I really enjoyed this look and felt quite a thrill to be portraying myself this way. If I am honest, I actually felt empowered to be this woman, the whole outfit was great to wear and I loved the shoes. I would love to go to a meeting dressed this way. I have always been attracted to the prim tailored appearance of female lawyers. I think the make-up and the skirt and heels gives their image real panache over their male counterparts.
I think it would be fun to create a theme on Flickr of prim but stylish tailored female looks. I am definitely going to explore this one further. Has anyone else ever faced exploring this type of female appearance?

Yesterday the village I live in had an event to celebrate 170 years since the station opened. A fair number of people dressed up for the occasion.

The mood to spend time as a woman is powerful within me this evening. I am not able to act upon this desire so all I can do is recall memories of previous cross-dressing sessions.
I acknowledge my pictures are dull and indulgent and are more for my own vanity but I do delight in preparing myself for them and enjoy the performance of attempting to be a woman on camera.
The evening I took this picture I had spent the afternoon shaving my legs, chest and arms. Plucking my eyebrows and trying my best to remember how to apply my make up before that final thrill of dressing in lingerie, pantihose, slipping on a skirt and stepping into high heels. The resulting photo is not that good. As happens a lot with me, I was not quite in position when the timer ran out and the camera took the picture.
Seeing the photo though fills me with delight as I see myself dressed as a female and I recall how elated I felt. It was an emotionally satisfying experience as I admit I adore trying to be a lady.

Up to London on Saturday, and it was pride day, so lots going on and lots of colour.
This lady was outside Hamleys toy store in Regents Street, and she was doing a great job at entertaining the children.

These guys definitely get an "A" for effort, especially the guy with the mirrored sunglasses. I wonder if he had that suit custom-made. It occurred to me to check his mirrored synglasses, and I'm happy to see I'm not there. Easter, NYC -- April 21, 2019

Unbelievably, after my months of frustration at no opportunity to cross-dress, today I suddenly had the house to myself. I rushed to the bathroom and completely shaved off all my body hair…it feels amazing to be smooth and hairless once more… and then it was out with the make-up, slip on a dress, step into heels, don a wig and allow euphoria to engulf me.
I have no real opportunity to set up for photos so I just took some on my phone from as far as my arm could reach. I am ecstatic, I adore being a woman. I had forgotten the sheer delight of spending time as a woman.
As I type this note I'm truly delighted and still dressed as I appear in the picture. The image is low resolution as I used the front camera on my phone.
I never saw this opportunity coming at all. Only last night I was posting here on Flickr about my frustrations. Right now I am quite simply in heaven!

I don't do very good smiles, either displaying or not displaying teeth - Nothing to actually do with my teeth - they're very nice, quite petite and generally well spoken of - what I am good at however is simpering!!!!!

This guy was so proud of his Game of Thrones Easter bonnet, complete with carrot throne and three dragons. (The 3rd was on the back.) He said it took him 6 weeks to make and that he hand-stitched the dragons. Easter, NYC -- April 21, 2019
