Hiya girlies!

Today I’d love for us to share the little tips and tricks that you’re proud of, things that help you feel like the best version of you! It could be about anything, makeup, hair, hair removal, voice, mannerisms, diet, exercise, fashion, whatever you learned that had a positive impact on your life that could help another girlie learning who she wants to be!

Something I’ve been particularly enjoying recently is finding ladies I particularly admire in media and copying the things they say, trying to match their intonation and expression. I know it’s not an original idea but it can be super fun and very satisfying when you get it right! :3

    Most of us tend to be top-heavy rather than bottom-heavy, so look for nice outfits that create curvature to counter that. For example dresses with sashes, coats that widen at the bottom, corsetry, etc. you generally want to avoid anything that straightens your silhouette. The aim is to give the illusion of fuller hips and a narrower waist.

    But also remind yourself that most women (cis or trans) are not the pristine, soft-spoken, glammed up doll-like beauties the media likes to pretend we are! Women can be loud, women can be butch, women can be muscular (👀 be still my gay heart). Try not to be too hard on yourself.

    (I’ve been trans for 10 years, ask me about anything!)

      I’ll settle for being a cute, comfy mess hehe~

      I am super looking forward to corsetry though, but I am a bit worried about my tummy, I’m slowly starting to see the effects of extra exercise but I’d really appreciate any suggestions you might have to help there!
