This is gonna be harder than I thought

I've spent a lot of time thinking about the blog this weekend, and I'm beginning to realize how nervous I really am. When I was female identified, I had a very established sense of style, and I had learned how to turn heads and really feel confident in the way I dressed. I really liked the way I looked, and it's scary thinking about giving that up and completely remaking something that I've spent so long on. While I wasn't happy with my style because I was mostly using it to pass, I did know what I was doing, and now I really don't know where to start. I feel like I have no guidance and no one willing to be the one laughing with me when my experiments don't work out so well. 

I've decided to put actively buying things on hold until I can get a hold of a binder that works well for my body shape. In the mean time, I finally got a haircut, and I'm putting together collages of styles of people I admire. My binder should arrive within a few days, so expect an update soon. In the mean time, at the very least, I can rest assured that my new hairstyle is dapper as heck, even if it has not crossed over to the realm of dapperasfuckery yet. 

Stay fabulous, and as ever, I'd love to hear about other peoples' experiences in the comments below.

PS: My glasses broke, and I figure this is a great opportunity to look for something simple to make me more confident and explore my style. Any suggestions for androgynous frames?
