Some Pictures of Barbara

These are some pictures that I took with my SO to document my progress so far:

Here is my head shot. We are learning to apply my makeup in a way that best suits and flatters me, as well as helping me to feel pretty. We decided to go with a black & white picture until we have makeup that is better suited to covering my 5 o'clock shadow.


These pictures are re-creations of the outfit that I reluctantly tried on because pants seemed to be too unisex. However, it was in this outfit, that my SO first confronted with the fact that I looked like a woman rather than the spouse she had been married to for many years. She was a little disconcerted at the time, which I found incredibly flattering and validating. At the time, I hadn't taken the opportunity to shave my legs. Now that they are smooth, I can get that reaction from her in hosiery and a cute pair of heels.




And finally, this is a picture of me, wearing and outfit from our first shopping trip together. Underneath, I am wearing a waist cinching girdle and a bra. I didn't think the bra would work at first, but was delighted to find that it did in fact give me the shape that I am working toward. Foundation garments have always intrigued me. As a child, my first "porn" was found in the Women's Undergarment section of the Sears catalog.
