Sheery in pink Wolford Neon and OW Collection Dress

It is probably no surprise or really even a secret that I’ve always been drawn to the color fuscia. It’s bright, sexy, feminine and something I never dare to wear as me in male-mode. It’s also no secret that I’ve pushed for Wolford to bring back that gorgeous shade for their Neon 40 tights. That was nearly TEN YEARS AGO and guess what? They did bring it back for sale but I never caught on to it until way too late. Damn you Wolford!

However, there are those savvy sellers on eBay that know rare shades of Neon 40 can become collectors items. Then they stock up and sell these at collector item prices for crossdressers, errr, people like me. So of course I shelled out more than I should have for a pair (actually TWO pairs, you know, just in case the other pair rips). Anyway I tell the story about that purchase in a previous post.

Slipping into those brand new fuscia Wolford Neon 40 tights was like a dream come true and, WOW, they really are bright! The only thing, though, was that I didn’t have anything to go with bright fuscia tights. No lingerie, bodysuits, dresses, ok well a matching lipstick shade I do have but nothing else. So then I thought why not just celebrate my Wolford Neon win by getting a lovely dress and heels matching in the same color if at all possible.

That it was!

Over the course of the next month or so, I kept my eye out for anything that caught it. First I randomly stumbled on a pair of heels I immediately fell in love with… and even in that perfect shade of fuscia I was after. These 14cm (5.5 in) stilettos are from Le Silla and were even more stunning when I took them out of their box and slipped (and stumbled) into them. They are TOO TALL as well. Definitely the tallest pair in my arsenal of stilettos.

And, not to mention, they perfectly matched the shade of fuscia on the Neon 40 tights. Now we’re getting somewhere!

Sheery in her favorite Victorias Secret teddy

My first love has always been pantyhose since I was a kid. Yet as I grew up through my weird pubescent years I grew a fondness for lingerie way back when there were paper catalogs that had lingerie sections which I collected, my comic books of sorts I guess. I would fantasize and obsess while gawking through those pages, not at the typical ladies in bras and panties, but the more sultry garments. You know, anything with garters or all lace or “push-up” but what really caught my eye were the teddies. I fell in love with how they were basically a bathing suit but far sexier.

Then there was that time when I was still in high school, I had just got my drivers license and started working in a shitty fast food job earning minimum wage but my own fun money basically. So what did I do with that first paycheck? I drove right down to the mall, gave into my urge to try lingerie that wasn’t stolen, and bought a sexy camisole set. Wearing it later that night, with pantyhose of course, was at the time probably the most erotic and sensual experience I ever had.

Of course, being able to shop and afford things myself, my lingerie purchases didn’t stop there. With my fascination with teddies, I remember ordering a hot pink lace teddy with underwiring and a very high leg cut from a Sears catalog. Then I excitedly picked it up a few days later, rushed home and slipped it on, again, over my pantyhose. It was another sexy, sensual moment in the books but this teddy was something that truly felt amazing having on. I wouldn’t say it was a very feminine feeling but more like a sexual excitement and of course shortly after came the gratification (pun intended).

Pearl & Poseidon stay-ups

A while back I got my hands on some Pearl & Poseidon stockings being rather curious about a company that doesn’t hide the fact that they cater specifically to pantyhose fetishists. Stockings weren’t my thing until I tried them out and now they even get a legwear rotation with a garter belt every now and then. Not to mention, they haven’t seemed to wear down with the usual snags, runs or heel scuffs. Real keepers these are!

So with the holidays approaching, time for the shopping for loved ones (me) and I usually splurge on some girly items Santa Claus wouldn’t otherwise give me. Up there on the wishlist (actually there for a while) was to try something new from Pearl & Poseidon. Since the last couple of years since my last purchase, their collection has expanded quite a bit. I’m not ashamed of being on their mail list either so I already kind of have an idea of what is coming out, probably the reason I need more of their fetishy stuff like right this minute.

I wouldn’t say the P&P items are exactly for dressing up for a quick stroll on your local sidewalks, maybe even a bit of a stretch for Carnival too. Yet they have this allure to them… shiny, silky and sheerness draped all over your body and not just the legs. Although I’ve only tried the stockings, I would gladly take their pantyhose for a spin too. Would they replace my dear Wolford tights? I wouldn’t go that far hun.

Yet this thing is something I would gladly slip into…

Wolford emergency bag

I hate to admit it but I am not always in my heels and hose prancing around all over town or in far away places. However, when I do get out of the house on some trip, I do like to take along a garment or two, pantyhose (of course), a wig and some lipstick for good measure. Pretty normal for a run-of-the-mill crossdresser I would say.

Yet I also have this one peculiar habit that I’ve been doing for a number of years now. I managed to snag one of these small little Wolford silk bags which I believe were for some of the designer masks they sold during the pandemic. I didn’t find the masks that appealing (surprising) but something about tiny little silk bags somehow blows wind up my skirt. I got a couple of them and I think they were overpriced at that. But, hey, who didn’t buy crazy shit during the pandemic?

The little bags are quite cute but I was I was really thinking was that a pair of pantyhose could fit perfectly into one of these. So I ripped open a package of shiny new Wolford Neon 40 tights in a Gobi shade (of course), folded it nicely and, lo and behold, they do fit perfectly! So I left them in there nice and snug and have taken this little bag everywhere I’ve been travelling ever since. My perfect little silk bag of some emergency Wolford tights in case I get stuck in a bind in some god forbidden place with no access to pantyhose. The horror!

Yves Saint Laurent with Wolford tights

Surely you know by now that I love slipping into a pair of Wolford tights, then maybe sipping a glass of wine while enjoying that silky softness on my legs. If you can’t tell, I’m doing just that as I type here. I also just got on my bed and propped my legs in the air to snap a quick photo (ahem, no dirty thoughts now). It’s actually what you see right above. That shade of Neon 40 is called Sodalite Blue and is quite gorgeous if I say so myself.

Normally my Wolfords are at the center of my attention, however, I just happened to receive a package in the mail the other day with some new footwear, ahem, also in the photo above. This is also one of the first times that I can remember where I am actually turned on wearing heels. Seriously, I had one of those OMG orgasmic moments trying these on, posing in the mirror, then prancing around on the carpet.

They are actually Yves Saint Laurent Tribute platforms that I got for a steal practically new on Vinted. Brand new, I wouldn’t even think about buying heels this pricey which I’ve checked online that are between 500€ – 1500€. By chance, I happened to see these in a listing that caught my eye for more like 200€ which I snapped up. I took from my budget for male clothes (zero) and splurged on something that the female in me would more likely enjoy.

Wolford Vegan Leather Body
Image: wolfordshop.com

Ever see something that on first glance you just have to have it? Yeah, like I really have to ask a crossdresser such a question with an obvious answer? Well, several months back, my eyes glanced on this vegan leather bodysuit from Wolford that made me nearly come in my tights. Aside from that, it is a collaboration with Amina Muaddi and (YIKES) has quite a hefty price tag, $665 in the US and £409 in the UK. OK, I would have waited until the end of season sale for this one I guess.

Yet this thing was so gorgeous I debated selling my car, plasma… my body just to be able to slip into this sexy, kind of fetichy garment. Alright, no I didn’t but you could see what I mean. I really did have to have it.

Then it turned out that miracle happened and I found this very same Wolford bodysuit on Vinted for $100 in perfect condition. It was in a size small which, normally with Wolford bodysuits, I can fit into snugly. So of course I would also like a (vegan) leather bodysuit to look like it were painted on. At a fraction of the price, I rushed to buy it and eagerly awaited that delivery truck like the ice cream man.

Sheery in a Redhead Wig

At last count I had six wigs lying around the house. I think there is another one deeply buried in storage next to some old pantyhose from the year 2000 but we won’t count that one. They have all served their purpose at certain points as the icing on that delicious cake of me the crossdresser. Actually they have been more like the cherry on top, so to speak. Basically, a wig has been nothing more than a finishing touch when I am in the mood to dress.

Up until recently I actually haven’t given much though to that little cherry until I went out and paid for a decent one. I was always pretty much happy with the 30€ – 50€ ($33 – $55) bargain barn rugs that went on the top of my head but I had never given a second though to quality since it never really seemed to matter. If hair is fake, it is fake and, well, looks the part.

Then I figured why not try out a REAL wig as in a professionally made prosthetic piece instead of using the same old strands of plastic that I’ve been use to. I thought about it back and forth whether to shell out ten times the price I paid for the cheapos and, even more funny, thought about just getting another ten head rugs in different colors and styles. I eventually made the rational decision to go for the quality and maybe in a tint that I would not normally go for… the redhead.

So I forked over the several hundred euros from my credit card to a German company for the “Carlotta” bob wig in a “paprika” color. It is quite a lovely piece with curls and a length a little bit short of the shoulders. I decided I had to ready myself well for the trial so I showered and slipped into my girly attire and then spent a good hour doing my makeup. God I hate putting on makeup although I do really like the end result.

Then I carefully combed through the wig with my hands and gently placed it on. I nearly came when I looked at myself in the mirror.

My butt in a leotard and tights

I guess it is pretty telling of my age just even mentioning the leotard, the 80’s sexy symbol of the fitness craze of the time. Not to mention, they happened to never go without their sister counterpart, glossy colorful tights. I can even remember as a kid taking a liking to gymnastics so I could get the opportunity to wear them for, uh, comfort. Unfortunately, being labeled as “girly” at that young age quickly put an end to that.

That still did not put an end to my fondness for that tight, shiny body garment even though I grew more an more into the tights and pantyhose world. Luckily my mom and sister had a few of those workout VHS videos which I happily watched when they were not around (precursor to porn?). Anyway, my sister even had a couple leotards which I tried on every now and then… over her tights of course.

Obviously the leotard fell out of fashion in the 90’s and practically fell out of memory come the new millennium. Thanks to eBay, however, they still lurked around as “fetish” items. I gave in and got one long ago, as you see above, since I couldn’t help it. It was a nice flash from the past but those little kinks as a kid in the 80’s probably need to stay right where they are, as a distant memory. Sure, there are groups of leotard lovers, I guess even cosplay enter the picture here, but that just isn’t my thing these days. Long story short, it really clashes with my crossdressing.

I don’t want to be a Jane Fonda.

I checked and I think I even lost that shiny silver leotard. All I have is the photo 🙁

Wolford Skyline Bodysuit

Of course nothing beats my love for silky pantyhose but I did have a thing for leotards back in the day. I can’t help but to think of those Jane Fonda posters with her posing legs stretched in the air and clad in a high-cut leotard, tights and leg warmers.Why they even used belts over their leotards as an eye-catching accessory back then too. My what lovely memories of body hugging spandex shining in the light and the best friend to my dear pantyhose.

I do still have my Reebok racer-back a la 90’s and a couple of Jane Fonda inspired leotard gems of my own but I realize we are well into 2020, wait 2021 already (!), and the coveted leotard is hardly used by even dancers these days. Maybe I’ll just look forward to a Jazzercise themed party in the future but, until then, those spandex garments will sit nicely folded and (hopefully not) forgotten in the meantime.

Yet what is this we have now that I have ignored all along? The… bodysuit? Well thank god for whoever invented this which is practically a leotard made for everyday wear, not to mention in a fashion forward sense as well. Girly, tight-fitting, sexy and, get this, cool. I can definitely get onboard with that!

Actually, I started getting into bodysuits when I realized my all-time favorite company in the world, Wolford – makers of the Neon 40 tights, have been making them for quite a long time. AND they are gorgeous and come in a million styles to choose. Well, actually only a few “new and exclusive” styles each year since, after all, they are a high-end fashion company.
