But I hate the feeling of my thighs rubbing together and I’m worried that tights would look dumb. Would bike shorts or anything similar be a good way to work around that?
Pettipants are an option too; they're intended to slide easily. "Slip shorts" are a modern, tighter version of pettipants--basically bike shorts but made of very thin fabric so you don't sweat to death/have VBSL (visible bike shorts line).

Or anti-chafe creams/sticks, usually dimethicone. The ones with funny names for athletes are usually better than the really femme ones.
 
DAE know the feeling? Like legitmately trying to look feminine just makes me feel like an ugly troon because everything is ill-fitting due to my body shape. I used to dress just butch/masculine since it fit my shape but now that I'm 30 I find I'm enjoying looking more like an actual woman at times. I even grew out my hair for the first time in literally like 12 years.
YES. Not even PLing, but some dresses you put on and it's like:

Yep, just don't use the bike shorts with the built-in padding.
 
Gd I wish I could find cute clothes more in my size. I'm not overly huge (178cm) but I'm built super wide with no almost tits, on top of bigger build from years of contact sports/bulking. Even when I do find cute clothes in my size I feel like a troon wearing them.

I'm built like Jim Carrey so yeah I know the feeling. I've mostly managed to find things that work on me but every once in a while I'll see a picture of myself and be aghast that nobody stopped me wearing something, and it's usually cute feminine clothing that inspires that reaction.
 
got these loafers in the latest ssense sale - by toga pulla. they're absolutely gorgeous - heavy, and the leather is delicious. irl they're a super super dark brown - almost black, so easy to coordinate.

they also had some incredible chelsea boot-style ones that sadly weren't in my size.

I’ve been working on dropping a dress size and in the meantime I have been embarking on a Kibbe journey and streamlining my wardrobe. Perhaps typing your body would help you to find confidence with what clothing will help you look your best? If you are female and 5’7 or above you will be either a Dramatic, Soft Dramatic or Flamboyant Natural. If you are wide and not very curvy you might be a Flamboyant Natural.

I found this Youtuber’s outline for do's and don’ts pretty helpful for my own type (TR).

Once you have found your Kibbe type you can then combine it with your Kitchener essence to help you find the types of prints and accessories that encapsulate your 'vibe'.

Make sure the clothes you buy are in your correct color season too, each has their own suggested finishes for jewelry and makeup.

I know this the girly stuff thread but I need some fashion advice. Would you buy this jacket for 25 bucks?

(I know the quality of the leather is good btw)
Goddamn I would! 25 bucks is nothing for leather

Those are the most beautiful shoes I have ever seen. How do they feel on your feet?

If you ever see a second hand Rover and Lakes jacket you need to grab one. I don't know why but they're always cheap even though they're made of good leather. My Dad has been wearing the same Leon S. Kennedy Bomber Jacket from them for 30 years now (I couldn't find that exact model unfortunately so I settled for this one)
 
Just a quick addendum since it’s too late to edit my post.

In terms of the Kitchener essences, what I should have said is that there is a blend, usually of up to 3 that will be apparent.

Also with the Angelic or Ethereal essence, the table describes very fair coloring but that isn’t necessarily the case. Their manner will make them seem otherworldly or unusual in some way and especially when combined with the other essences this could very well be on the darker side too.

According to Kitchener himself, the Romantic essence is subdivided into 2 categories and is combined with either Dramatic (the “exotic” romantic) or Natural (the romantic “gypsy”).
 
Okay I admit I'm addicted now. I found another jacket from the same brand (AGAIN for 25 bucks). Nobody has ever worn this thing, it smells like 20 years of closet. Oh and it also looks like Max Paynes Leather Jacket so I put on some fitting clothes to pose with it:

I admit it's a strange way to censor my face but it sure does work.

Here is the jacket without stupid edits or me posing with it:

I have never been more jealous of someone in this thread
 
Can someone please tell me these look ugly to make me not want them anymore
View attachment 6972897
I think I like that there's no side zipper...
These are cute. The only thing I'm not sure of is the ankle strap, can't tell if it looks cheap or not from this picture alone, but otherwise I need these. Got a link?
Has anyome tried to Nyx IV Lip Gloss? I'm curious about trying it.
So, I've been wanting to try it too. I love a good lip stain. However, what has stopped me from committing to buying it is the price, plus their own promotional product photo showing how it looks:

Holy shit that stain example looks god awful and patchy as hell. If it looks this bad on their promotional image, I can only imagine how bad it looks in person. I absolutely hate lipstains that do this. I'm going to stick to my preferred brand, it stains beautifully and doesn't look gross like this.

Yep, to be fair some of the colors don't look bad in the promotional images but still, that is such a terrible image I can't believe they allowed it on there.
I use Etude fixing tint and I love it, if you want a good rec.

I really love the water tint honestly. It smells great and compliments my skin well.

I'm unironically albino so I love product that's very light to put on

I used their water tint for years and really liked it, but I really like the fixing tint better now. I feel like it not only looks better, but it makes my lips feel and somehow makes them look bigger/fuller somehow. It lasts all day too, I put it on for 5 minutes, wipe it off (you can leave it on if you want, I don't tho) and it stays all day. I put my favorite chapstick over it and I'm good to go. They also have a lot more colors than the water tint.
 
Got a link?
I think it was called "Chuck 70 De Luxe Valentines Day", its not on the converse site so I don't know if they're still being sold, don't wanna link you to some rando potentially scammy site. The version without the ankle strap is still there though.

Yeah, it looks like that was a limited edition for Valentine's day :( Oh well, it's for the best, I already have way too many shoes.
