bra

A great fitting bra is every girl’s “breast” friend. Here are 3 tips for choosing the right bra:

  • Start with the two basic bra colors: one black and one nude color that matches your skin tone.
  • Avoid frilly or lacy textures that can be visible from beneath your clothes.
  • If you wear breast forms, choose a full coverage bra with underwires and substantial straps.

Avoid the temptation to wear a white bra under white or lightweight fabrics; it tends to show through.

3. A vibrant scarf

scarves

A colorful scarf is a wardrobe must. Scarves are extremely versatile! A scarf can be worn around the neck to disguise an Adam’s apple or draped over the shoulders to minimize broadness of the body.

4. Black pumps

Shoes say more about you than any other accessory. Classic pumps are sexy, feminine, and work well with many types of clothes. Black pumps with a 2″-3″ heel and rounded toe are classic and will give you the most mileage. (Choose a lower heel if you are tall.)

5. Shoulder bag

Bags are a status symbol among women, so it’s worth investing in a great shoulder bag. You don’t have to splurge on a designer bag, but look for a classy, upscale design.

6. Waist cincher

We can all use a little help to slim our midsections. A waist cincher is a great way to trim the tummy! Here’s how to choose what type of cincher you need:

  • For strong shaping effect, use a boned waist cincher
  • For comfort with some control, use a shaping camisole

7. 2 skirts

Owning 2 basic skirts in neutral colors will give you almost endless options for mixing and matching with other items in your closet. Choose:

  • One fitted skirt, like a pencil skirt
  • One skirt that’s pleated or full

8. Sheer black hose or tights

Bare legs might be trendy now, but in cooler months, nothing beats the polished look of hosiery. Control top hose or tights are also great for helping flatten out the tummy. Go for classic black pantyhose or tights.

9. Figure flattering jacket

jacket

Jackets have endless uses. Since they are more structured than other pieces, they are great for figure shaping. Look for tailored jackets that accentuate the waist and add curves.

Some styles of jackets that work well for crossdressers and transgender women are:

  • Peplums
  • Belted styles
  • Empire waists
  • Gathered fabric
  • Feminine details like princess seams and darts

Avoid boxy jackets and shoulder pads because you’re trying to downplay a boxy shape and broad shoulders, not draw attention to them.

10. Evening clutch

A sleek clutch can dress up even the most casual outfit and is a must for the evening. Clutches look more chic than shoulder bags at night and can really set your outfit apart.
