hi everyone, i finally got back into my account here. i've been out as a trans woman for several years, but only just started estrogen several months ago and have been wanting to actually start expressing femininely instead of just wearing men's clothes which is giving me a whole lot of dysphoria now. i'm wondering where other transfems get their clothes? i have no idea where to look.

edit: thanks so much everybody for your suggestions, i really appreciate it!

    Thrifting is how I get most of my interesting pieces of clothing. I also use target for a few things like jeans and H&M where I have quite a few things that fit me pretty well. How tall are you? I think that will actually make a difference. Shoe size also really changes where you can shop.

    Finally the big thing is figuring out what works on your body. What looks good and what makes you feel good. Don't discount jewelry because some good accessories will take a normal outfit and make it really cute. I always like big pendant necklaces and adorning myself with rocks and stuff

      i'm pretty short (5'4), so finding pants/jeans is always a pain in the ass. but i've had success with old navy and their sizing which has short leg sizes that i dont need to cut or cuff. but thanks for the jewelry recommendation! i'll be looking.
