Any clothing ideas for a mtf to ease into non-masc stuff? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I hope my enby peeps can help me out here.

I am very interested in exploring a more feminine expression, but my starting point is masc-af physically, so anything too feminine too quick is going to have a very hard contrast and I'm definitely more of an "I don't want to stick out much" kind of person.

Any ideas that may be more androgynous, but not attention grabbing that I can try out? I am not good at picking outfits anyway, so I need all the help I can get.

Like beard and full body hair, so obviously lower cut stuff could be very dysmophic atm.

Maybe something that just feelsmore feminine but may not look it so much. You know? Does this make sense?

Small things, for sure. Socks, undies, t shirts, etc. Then there’s clear nail polish, or even something more colorful on toes if you’re not a sandal wearer. Especially now that we’re moving towards the “cooler” months here in the northern hemisphere. If your hair is longer, maybe branching out into different hair accessories, like different or more colorful clips or ties, or even hair sticks.

Gods I wish my hair would grow faster! I damn near shaved it all of right before my serious questioning started, so I'm staying from almost 0

I do have the colorful toes! I neglected thinking about 5the fact that it's still summer and my apartment pool is still open, so 😵‍💫😱😬

I had not thought about socks, I am interested in undies, but my thicc-ass thighs have some words on that idea. I suppose I could always double up? 🤷‍♀️

I think I'm still afraid of bringing body disphoria to light by trying more fitted cuts. 🫤 Several things I have wanted to try on private, like bralettes, but iknow immediately I'm going to see a body that doesn't match and feel something. 😓
