I always enjoy perusing Reddit after Halloween to see what Halloween costumes where posted in various Crossdressing and Transgender communities. It's always a delight to see all the Halloween inspired outfits and the fun and inventive costumes being worn by us girls this year. Since I enjoy it so much I figured I'd share some of my favorites with you!
Hope you enjoyed all of those. This year was yet another year where I didn't get to dress up as anything feminine. Oh well, at least I got to enjoy everyone else's spooky Halloween escapades on reddit. Hopefully come next year I'll finally get to have some feminine fun on Halloween, we'll all just have to stay tuned to find out!
Since I haven't ordered a Disney Princess dress in a while I've been going through withdrawals and needed some Princess magic in my life. So today I'll be scratching my itch by highlighting three amazing Disney Princess influencers from Instagram! There's a lot of various princess influencers online from Cosplayers, to dress designers to party princesses, so there's no shortage of content to for me to share. The three I chose today were the some of the first influencers I started following and are all really magical!
Valentinemoon
Rosie aka _valentinemoon_ is a cosplayer that has amazing Instagram and TikTok accounts where she shows off her amazing princess dresses, all of which she makes by hand! She has tons of videos showing off how she she makes all her dresses, but my favorite videos of hers by far are her videos that show off what she has underneath the dresses. She has a series of videos where she shows off every layer that has to be put on underneath one of her dresses. So many layers of cute pretty petticoats and hoop skirts get worn to give princess dresses authentic movement and flowyness. She's got videos highlighting her versions of Disney's Live action Cinderella, Light-Up Cinderella, Belle, Ariel's Wedding Dress, Anna, Elsa's Spirit Dress, Elena of Avalor, and Lottie from Princess and the Frog.
Weren't those fun?! You guys know I'm a fan of layers so I loved these videos! Rosie also makes a great series of dresses based on the classic animated barbie movies, so if you're a fan of those or just want to look at more of her pretty dresses go check her out on Instagram! One last video I figured I'd share is a slowed down more in depth video of her Live Action Cinderella Dress:
Aleks Ponomareva
Next up I've got professional costume designer Aleks Ponomareva aka aleks_ponomareva_ on Instagram. She designs by far the best Disney Princess dresses I have ever seen, and they are all for sale! That's right you too can own any of these dress, for a steep price of course. Unfortunately they're all pretty far out of my budget but they're still an absolute joy to look at! Here are all the different designs she currently produces:
Aren't those just the most beautiful dresses ever! Like OMG!! Also got to give massive credit to Aleks Ponomareva for looking so beautiful while wearing all of them. If I ever win the lottery my closet is going to be full of these dresses! Yes they are expensive but the incredible designs and craftsmanship obviously make them worth it! To see some of these amazing dresses in motion, check out the videos below!
Ellascharm
Our final princess influencer for the day is Mekella aka ellascharm on Instagram. She runs a Princess Birthday Party business and has some humorous videos highlighting the difficulty of being a Princess in todays modern world. Firstly she does a great series of videos showing off how it can be difficult to drive while wearing a princess dress featuring Belle, Elsa, Rapunzel, and Ariel:
Another fun video by ellascharm is one that describes how exactly you are supposed to go to the bathroom when when wearing a massive ballgown:

Hope you enjoyed all of those! Go check out all of those influencer's Instagram pages to see more Princess content! There's a whole treasure trove of Princesses online with lots of fun content so I will absolutely be back for a part 2! Until then I have one last bonus video for you. It's a fun video showing off wedding dresses inspired by Disney Princess!
I discussed at length in a previous blog post about how I've long been on the hunt for my perfect wedding dress. Well recently my hunt came to an end... or so I thought! Every now and then I'll browse ebay for wedding dress, and usually come up empty handed. Either dresses are the wrong size, wrong style, or wrong price. However to my surprise while I was just doing a random browsing session I seemingly found a perfect dress! It had literally every feature I wanted: puff sleeves, long sleeves, beaded and lace detailing, mostly satin, and a large bow on the back. Funnily enough I had actually posted an exact image of the dress in my blog post on my dream wedding dresses!
The San Martin dress itself seemed to be in good condition despite some minor imperfections. It was a size twelve, which I was fairly certain I could fit into. But the cherry on top was the price only $80! Not only had I found my dream wedding dress but I'd found it for a reasonable price! Needless to say I realized this was too good an opportunity to wait on so I instantly bought it!
When the day finally came I with quickly grabbed my box off the door step and ran to my room. The box was fairly heavy which made me happy (I love a dress with some weight) and the dress was super tightly packed. Once I had finally freed it from its packaging I took in all the intricate details, it was a little overwhelming honestly! But enough staring, time for wearing! I threaded my legs through the long gown and began to pull it up. I slipped my arms into the sleeves and immediately noticed a problem, there was no way the back was going to zip up. I tried adjusting the shoulders and pulling things together but alas it was not even close. I was so disappointed!! I came so close, but unfortunately my wedding dress dreams slipped through my fingers again. Luckily the ebay seller accepted returns so I was able to ship it back and get a refund.
What a disappointing turn of events, I had a perfect wedding dress in my hands it was just a little too small. I'll be sizing up in future orders, I'd rather not have to got through the same disappointment again. Oh well maybe next time! My eternal search for a wedding dress continues...
I was reading an article on CNN's website the other day and was given the most peculiar advertisement:
Why was this ad being recommended to me?! What was the internet trying to say?! I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw it pop up, they really have mastered how to do targeted ads online!
I've got an extra fun update for you today, I finally visibly wore pantyhose in public!!! Like I mentioned in a previous blog post I just bought myself some pantyhose which hide really well in public. The pantyhose I bought were L'eggs Silken Mist Ultra Sheer Leg; which were very hard to see on my legs, making them perfect for wearing in public and not drawing any attention to myself. The reason I bought the pantyhose was so that I could wear them in public and I was going to act on my plan! For years I was envious of other crossdressers and transwomen who regularly wore pantyhose in public while dressed as a man, but now I was able to do it myself!
But where to go, where would be my first outing as a proud pantyhose wearer? Well I already had to go to Costco to pick a few things up, so I decided to kill two birds with one stone, and make Costco my first destination in pantyhose! But seeing as this was going to be my first time doing this I wanted to play things a little safe; I would go to the Costco Business Center Store, which almost never had any people in it. I excitedly put my pantyhose on and over a pair of pink polka dot Victoria's Secret panties and got ready to be on my way! I also couldn't help but laugh, because if I bent over too much you could totally see my panties and pantyhose. Oh well, I just would have to be careful.
Proudly wearing my pantyhose I headed out my front door! I strut my stuff all the way to my car and got a video of my pantyhose clad legs along the way! Also snapped a pic of my legs in the sunshine. In the direct sunlight the pantyhose were actually fairly visible which made me a little nervous. It was too late to turn back however, I was committed! Side note if you've never worn pantyhose under some silky athletic shorts you are missing out, it feels fantastic!
Well I hopped in my car and I was on my way! I couldn't help but admire my pantyhose'd legs on my long drive to Costco, it felt so good to finally be wearing them out!
After about a 25 min drive I finally made it to my destination, and to my utter surprise it was absolutely packed! But I had chose this Costco because of how un busy it was, why was it so crowded?! Well it probably had something to do with the minor hurricane hitting my area in the next few days, and how better to prepare for a hurricane than buying bulk supplies at Costco. But I'd come to far to turn back now! The first thing I needed was gas for my car, so I got in line at Costco's gas station. I eagerly awaited my turn to pump gas and then the moment of truth finally came. I pulled up to the pump and got out. The sun was pointing directly onto my legs when I got out of the car, so I quickly got out and walked around to the pump. Thankfully it was an unassuming middle aged woman behind me, not the kinda person to stir up a fuss at the sight of a young man wearing pantyhose. Well I pumped my gas without issue and got back in my car. Success! I wore pantyhose while I pumped gas!
Next came the hard part, going into the store. Like I said there was an absolute sea of people there. So despite my success at the gas station, I was feeling pretty nervous! I parked in what I thought would be a convenient spot for a quick get away, and after a few deep breaths I got out of my car and walked toward the store. My big moment of truth was nerve wracking but I kept walking! As I walked up to the store's entrance I did get a strange stare from a man who was also walking up. Was it that he was just absent mindedly staring, or was he wondering why is this young man wearing pantyhose?! Who knows. But I quickly passed him grabbed a cart and headed in. The store had people everywhere and luckily I only needed two things. So I quickly pushed my cart to grab my items (carefully avoiding busy aisles) and then headed to the registers when I got my items. Unfortunately because this was a smaller Business Center Costco there were no self checkout registers, which meant I'd have to interact with a another person. Thankfully due to the hoard of people the registers were pretty chaotic, which meant it was likely that no one was paying attention to me. I did feel very exposed standing there in line however, no where to walk away to if someone started staring at me. Well I finally got my chance to go to a register, quickly checked out and then got my but out of there! I walked out the exit quickly walked to my car, sat my butt in the seat, and let out a big sigh of relief! I DID IT!!!
My first time out in public was certainly a lot more eventful than I would've liked, however despite it all, I managed to visibly wear pantyhose in public! Now I certainly feel a lot better about doing it again, and again, and again LOL. The question is where will I go next?!
