[OC] an outfit I really like :)

Please ignore my nips, I don’t have a great way to make them less obvious with such a tight top 😅

    All the clothes are either thrifted or something that was given to me as a gift. The watch is a Casio f91w with a metal bracelet

    Shoes are from H&M but I’m pretty sure they don’t sell these exact ones anymore as I found them ages ago at a thrift store. They’re a pretty common style though

    I’m finally getting around to trying to post some oc since the mod has been pulling the weight of a collapsed star trying to keep the community going 😅

    Edit: shoes are from H&M, not forever 21

        Lol, you’re so very welcome, I’m glad this community exists for me to post in. I’m largely out of my depression hole and a lot more caught up on chores so hopefully I can post periodically now :)

        It took some fanagling to get a camera setup since I don’t have a floor length mirror but I made it work!

    I think an undershirt or a long-sleeved shirt under they top would add to this outfit, while also resolving the nips.

    (Not a fashion expert, just a singular opinion, feel free to dismiss)

      I wouldn’t have considered that, I might have to try it and see what I think! (Assuming I can find a suitable long sleeve, I don’t think I have many)

      Honestly I like having an excuse to show some skin as a vaguely more masc presenting person. The nips don’t really bother me too much, but I always kinda worky about making folks uncomfortable 😅

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts ☺️

      Thank you! And we do, though its mostly been the mod posting inspo and discussion to keep things moving. I’m hoping I can post fit pics periodically now that I’m kinda out of my winter depression hole and a little more caught up on life 😅

      Thanks! I friggen love these pants, I end up wearing them a disproportionate amount of the time any time I put together an outfit 😅

        There’s a famous demonstration of how the mind works that instructs: “Don’t picture a pink elephant!” The hitch is, what’s the first thing your brain has to do in order to follow directions? Picture a pink elephant!

        I think the other commenter’s point is that if you ask people to ignore something, that guarantees that we will notice/focus on it.

          Ahhh, okay thank you, I think somewhere along the way I’ve heard that before, but my brain absolutely did not make the connection lol.

          I’m not really bothered by people noticing/paying attention to it, I just worry about making folks uncomfortable. Fortunately no one seems to care

      I actually have some massively oversized boots I could try but didn’t consider them for the outfit, I’ll have to give them a try and see if I like them better

      Thanks!! I don’t wear it as often anymore, when the original strap broke I got an a700 I’m in love with, but after much searching I found a metal bracelet for it and I still love it dearly ☺️ its been pretty abused so it also makes a great beater 😅

      They’re from H&M though I don’t think they sell these exact ones anymore since they’re really old now, but if you’re looking for a style name they’re Chelsea boots, and I’d say they have a rounded toe, chunky tread, and slightly raised heel :) if you search Chelsea boot you’ll find all sorts of options!

      Thanks ☺️ and me too, they’re super versatile and I enjoy that I can make them work with more fem or more masc outfits. Someday I’ll have to get some nicer quality ones
