The most comfortable shoes I own are a pair of Gladiator type heels from Pennys.
They cost me 23euro and I have never had any problems with rubbing and burning soles like I have done with other famous (and much more expensive
) brands.
Love them!0 -

Heatons aren't bad either IMO. I've bought a couple of pairs of heels there. They have nice lace up peep toes at the moment (not the best description, but trust me they're nice) in black, pink and purple. I think they were only about €12. Sometimes you can be lucky with clothes there as well.
Post some pics of your purchases

I have that skirt Also, I adore that red dress, you have good taste. Is that blue shirt from Dunnes? I remember they had identical ones in red a while back.
Also, congrats on getting the courage to try things on in public. Nothing wrong with wearing what you're happy in, regardless of what it is.0 -

I think I have these shoes too, did they have them in grey and beige? I got the beige, they are actually the most comfy heels I have worn in ages!0 -
Thanks for your comments Lynda, I've never been told I'd "good taste" before. I was very nervous trying the shoes on alright.
Yeah got the blue top from Dunnes. Also got some lingerie in Penneys although the selection isn't great this time of year with all the swimwear in.
I'll give Heatons a go today. I'll post some pics of me wearing some of the stuff tomorrow if you want to see.0 -

Nice choices HS. Put up pics of you in them later. I love doing little fashion shows for myself after I buy stuff. Although I tried on stuff when I got home the other day in front of my niece and she really turned me off half of it. She is 11 for God's sake!!0 -
Don't believe anyone who says the white shoes aren't trashy - they're fantastically so! (ok, so wear them with the wrong things and they could be *genuinely* trashy, but ironic-trashy is utterly brilliant
)
And well bloody done on trying them on in public - it's a hard first step, but from everything I've heard it gets easier (My ex and close friend is TV, and another friend recently decided to start living full-time as a girl and even changed her name). You might get amused looks, but I haven't heard of many hostile looks
Oh, and regarding make-up - I've spoken to the Clinique girls in BT before on behalf of my TG friend mentioned above and they are very happy to give makeovers and tips to people shall we say, new to the whole arena Obviously you've have to be ok with sitting there in public getting it done, but they say if it's on a Monday or Tuesday mid-morning it's pretty quiet. 0 -

Bought a nice pair of grey patent heels in Heatons this morning. They're very comfy but look greay.
Told you Heatons was good 0 -

They are some very lovely outfits and look really well on you, seriously. Lovely legs and a nice, slim figure - b*tch! :P
I don't think you need much advice with clothes, other than the occasional bits we all need from time to time You're streets ahead of any other early-on TV I've known, and even some long-time.
The only thing I'll suggest is this - and I know this could be controversial, and I also know why New Girls probably do it - maybe don't do that thing with your legs so much. It's very kind of...cliched? Is that the word I'm looking for? Anyway, very few bio-girls do that (at least very few that I know, although there are of course plenty of very feminine, prim princesses out there) except as a kind of tongue-in-cheek pose, camping it up. I think (though it is just my opinion) that ironically being really girly makes a TV stand out more.
But back to the clothes - I really love the red suit (very elegant) and the purple dress with the grey patent heels. I couldn't carry off that look in a fit 0 -
I have loads of shoe from newlook and they're really well made/comfortable.
My favorite are simple black patent platforms that were only 15 euro.
Their prices are fairly reasonable and I think they have a good size range, plus wide fitting shoes.
Good luck & fair play 0 -

Wow, thanks for your comments. I like the red outfit too, I feel a bit like an air hostess
I'll give New Look a go at some time. Always on the look out for affordable cute shoes.
Thanks for your comments Microgirl, you could be right about the posing - maybe I nwas being ironic. Those are the grey heels from Heatons, the dress feels nice and fitted, lovely to walk in. 0 -
