Have you ever stopped to wonder why the ‘selfie craze’ is still going strong? The Internet is full of selfies. Hit up most any female Facebook or Insta, and you’re probably going to find alot of pics of the same shot. The chick in the pic took a little time to beautify while dressing up, got in her correct light on her good side and snapped a pic. That’s because once you find that angle and the right light, the camera loves you. Selfies are fun because you feel cute, you look good and you want people to see. It’s hard not to get a little snap-happy! I even wrote a blog about taking selfies. There’s something about commemorating the feeling, recording the moment. When you look back to those pics, you’ll remember feeling sexy. You’ll want it again.

Dressing Up For Yourself

Maybe you’re not a Social Sarah or a Nightlife Nina. That’s ok. Many of you get en femme and keep it very private. But I’ve talked to a great many of you and some of you don’t take nearly enough time to revel in your femininity or really enjoy yourself while dressing up. And very few of you take pics. I mention the word ‘selfie’, and so many of you laugh uncomfortably, like I must be joking. But I’m not.

I get the feeling that most of you don’t know why you should take pics, like it’s silly or stupid to want to. Why? You are two people, and you can’t shake that. Your softer side is something to be celebrated, even if it’s a quiet party. It’s not like you have to hide a bunch of Polaroids. You’ve got a cell. Keep them secret, keep them for yourself. Feel like branching out? Get yourself a Facebook, find some like minded people, join some online cross dresser communities if you haven’t already and enjoy it!

You don’t have to hit up the clubs or hide in the next town over. Set aside some time to be alone, whether it be several hours or a whole day. Some of you may even have longer. Lay a sexy outfit on the bed. It can be something that you already own or even a new lovely purchase. Take a bubble bath or a sensuous shower, relax with a little aromatherapy, smooth lotion on your soft skin afterward and take a little time dressing up for yourself. Pour a glass of wine, turn on some music, do a little make-up and forget the stress of the week. Feel your body in your garments, the way you move in them, the sound they make when you do. And then find your right light, your right angle and take a few pics with your phone. Upload them somewhere secret or don’t. Spend the evening making love to yourself, call your favorite Mistress, whatever you feel. All that matters is that you bring up those pics from time to time, that you see them and feel beautiful, because you deserve to.

When you look back to those pics, you’ll remember feeling sexy. You’ll want it again. Take it.
