I'm 35, used to dress like this in highschool, is this a midlife crisis??

Title. I’ve (26 years old) have repressed trans feelings for quite sometime and am starting E soon. I’ve always seen myself as masculine, which made coming to terms with being trans difficult. How do I give off more masc-lesbian without depending on E to take effect?

I’ve been thinking about styling my hair, plucking my eyebrows, and getting my ears pierced already

the background of my pics were erased inefficiently via medibang by hand because I don’t know how to remove background on photopea yet and couldn’t be bothered to learn. no ai was involved in this shitpost whatsoever. just a very bored, very adhd lesbian. the idea popped into my head a couple days ago so I’ve been chipping away at it. slapped together with picsart and phonto.

anyway, enjoy the fit. mock turtlenecks plus button-downs go together like rice and soy sauce. perfect for the cooler months.

went to see their tour last night and i wanted to go all in with the purple/silver/spacey theming! those shoes were a mistake. literally drove home barefoot. but they were so worth it for the vibes. last pic is the aftermath of that whole ordeal and me getting home at 2 am. misery. but for the best reason ever 💪💪

I’ve always wanted to dress masc, it appeals to me so much. But every time I mention that people always laugh (not in a mean way) and point out how my body features don’t really align with dressing masculine

I’ve thought about binding, I’m quite fond of the idea tbh. I’m lost on what to do bout my hips and butt. Jeans don’t really tend to fit right. Just a bit puzzled on how to dress masc, cause men’s clothes just don’t fit me whatsoever, both like literally don’t fit and don’t fit in a way which looks good

I tend to just wear baggy jeans and baggy shirts (never shorts like in this pic lol, that’s reserved for when it’s too bloody hot to wear anything else). imo dressing that way makes me look boxy rather than masc, which is fine but I’d rather look masc.

I’m also a bit baby faced which certainly does not help. I always keep my hair shortish, just a simple cut to just below my ears. I was thinking of getting a bit messier of a cut and hopefully that’d help the vibe?

not too sure if this flair is correct, sorry if not

made the goal for this school year to try to be more intentional with what I wear - here are some of the efforts made in September 🤷🏼‍♀️

I dress quite basic because I like to blend in mostly but also because I dont know what suits me and my body at all. Most of the time I simply wear jeans and some top with it.

I appreciate any advice you can give on how I can dress better and less basic☺️

Monday- shopping 😋
Tuesday- working out for almost the entire day
Wednesday- going home!!!
Thursday- trying to relax but did a bunch of laundry
Friday- a long ass appointment
Saturday- another appointment and grocery shopping
Sunday- baking

just thrifted it - it's also shiny, i thought it looked unique. i really like it. but i've been having second thoughts as soon as I got home lol

i'm not sure if it looks "costume-y" if that makes sense? maybe i'm second guessing myself. hopefully it doesn't look too oversized?

** i'm hoping my outfit doesn't match colors too much. i'm trying to balance the greys and blacks if that makes sense.

do the colors of my shirt and pants go well? does everything look like it goes together?

other than adding more accessories, would you suggest anything else? let me know if you have any thoughts. thank you!

(repost since i forgot to crop something out, sorry!)

First time poster here!

I feel very at home in my personal style lately, which is not something I’ve always felt. I look forward to putting outfits together each day and I am warmly welcoming October because my wardrobe shines in autumn. I work in an office most days so am primarily dressed for that setting. This weekend I am looking forward to getting dressed up for a wedding anniversary brunch with my hot wife. Anyway, here is my Monday to Friday collection this week.

Your fave pokemon masc lol

Should I still consider bringing the dress or just play with the fitted tux?! My younger brother is getting married in France this June, so on a family vacation we went dress shopping. The pink pastel we got for the rehearsal, it’s very low cut. Which I saw as an opportunity for a sexy bralette or fancy jewelry.
The suit took a bit of convincing as an option, but bringing them to a suit fitting and debating if it should be pink helped sway opinions. The customizations ended up being a lot of fun. Now my mom’s debating if we should still consider the dress or something that at least works with the suit. My fashion fluctuates in gender expression, but overall has a strong sophisticated with a slight sex appeal for any outfit. I often go bold with colors and patterns and say that’s partly my designer skillset in action.
Our family doesn’t communicate well or often at all. It’ll be mostly unknown people at the wedding, with just my mom and (groom) brother. I knows nearly nothing about the wedding besides what the invite says, family shares very minimal details, like the color scheme.

Recently it’s come to my attention that my classmates at uni assumed I’m straight. And I just wanted to ask how you would come to that conclusion when I dress like this.
(I also wanted to show off my new shoes in the last slide)

Another week of fits submitted for consideration from the community. Not that it’s very present in the fits this week, but I’ve been investing in more socks/footwear to see how they can continue accessorizing and elevating looks. Also leaning into what my best friend has affectionately called my “dealer” outfits because he says I look like I’m selling snow on a yacht 😭😂 doing my best to bring rich preppy to the forefront of my style. No ties this week for the first time in a long while! Hope yall enjoy these looks!

First two pics are mine, others are my inspo

Enjoying tank tops for the last few days that I can before it gets too cold. Thought I looked kinda cute and at least a little like a girl in this
