Blondie and Beyond

I had intended to buy a dress today but unfortunately the shop was closed however I did end up purchasing a nice denim skirt from another shop which is something I've wanted to get and thankfully it fit. I did start getting a bit nervous in the shop again though. No matter how much I tell myself I should buy things if I want to, the nerves still end up setting in. We do have only one life after all trouble is that doesn't help me in convincing myself as much as it should.

I was watching a documentary on Blondie and the making of their Parallel Lines album last night and it dislodged a few memories. I was really into the group in my late teens which coincided with their late 1990s resurgence. I even went to see them in concert in 1999 (or possibly 1998) and I remember a Vulture t-shirt being on sale. this t-shirt was worn by singer Debbie Harry back in their late 1970s/early 80s heyday and I really wanted one but I was just too scared to buy one because I saw it as female clothing. However I later saw videos of the male members of the band wearing it. Perhaps I might see if I can buy one now.

Here's a picture of Debbie Harry in the T-shirt

Just as a quick P.S there was recently a Doctor Who comic cover parodying the Parallel Lines cover featuring the Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald and The Silence which looked wonderful.

February Update

To be honest, it's not been the best month so far.

I haven't bought any new clothes and the only item I did buy didn't fit. I had my eye on a dress but that went once I returned to the store. I saw a handbag last week though I was tempted by though which is something  haven't thought about before. Would I use or have use for a handbag? Is it worth getting anyway?

I did see a dress in M&S though which had lots of circles on it. Basically it was a roundal dress and by roundal I mean the circles on the walls of the TARDIS for those unfamiliar with the term. There are quite a few cosplay idea running through my mind right now.

I've been meaning to write about a new site I found recently which everybody probably knew about anyway but it's The Changing Mirror and is well worth checking out for TF fiction. Not all M2F but various transformations. I've spoken before about my love of Wyrdey's stories and in turn that led me to those of Tainted Sins and the site. I've really been enjoying Tainted Sins stories and will probably post more about them on here soon and in particular there are a few new tropes I've been enjoying such as the idea of giving a grown woman the thoughts and feelings of a 13 year old boy.

Tainted Sins

It's not been the best month at work though but I have started trying to lose a bit of weight too.
