Because at Christmas...you tell the truth!

Here's what I love about Xmas in no particular order:

Snow...or rather the anticipation that it might, might just snow
Christmas jumpers, hats, socks, slippers and (of course) cosy onesie times
Mulled wine on a cold night
The works Xmas do...LOVE the whole thing (especially the free wine!)
The German Christmas food markets....mmmmm!
Ice skating, or even just thinking about ice skating
Xmas shopping!!
Friendships just seem to get better and better this time of year, because it's all about being with the folk that make you smile....awww.

And, just to even the terms for all you Xmas grinches; here is what I (begrudgingly) hate about Xmas time:

The busy-ness of town ALL THE TIME.  Boots is an absolute no-go until at least February.
The amount of weight I put on indulging in all that tasty food
The bitter cold wind that literally takes your breath away
The smug married couples whom wander round snugly and smugly holding hands whilst doing absolutely every christmassy activity  (how, tell me HOW one manages to hold 10 billion shopping bags whilst holding hands!)
The fact that PDA's seem to be everywhere (they probably aren't, but us single folk notice it and silently pretend we don't care whilst weeping into mulled wine)
It is the only time of year I actually want someone special in my life to do that whole 'running in the snow and grand gesture stuff' with!  (can't I just have it over Christmas and have summer to myself?!)

So there you have it folks.  I am secretly a mushy, romantic female in the body of a hopeless commitment phobe.  I'd love to tell you how that works...but it doesn't of course, which is why I am blogging about it!
(plus, let's face it, if I did ever manage to meet my match you wouldn't be able to read about all my 'dramatic' exploits!)

Till next time

A VERY productive Shop!

So after work today I sat on the couch with a glass of whiskey (Yes! I love a tipple in the winter) watching the TV when suddenly I received a text message from another buddy of mine who happens to dabble in the art of "Cross-dressing".....yes another guy who dresses in women's clothing! Crazy isn't it?! 
Well, lets call her Michelle, text me out of the blue like she does. Michelle is somebody I met online via other girls like me and we met up one night and hit a "Transvestites Night" in Bristol. Since then we have kept in touch as she keeps me updated with any special nights out in the future.

As somebody who has been called "A Lazy Tranny" in the past, I tend to make my nights out as Cassie limited as I am still in the closet as they say (Does the blog name make a bit more sense now?) but if the right night approaches and I can organise my schedule, I try my best to let Cassie get the legs out and party away. 
Anyway, I digress, Michelle text me to tell me the date of the annual Christmas Transvestite/T Girl party that I have been to and to get a dress ready as it's going to be "Off the Hook" - Her words not mine!
So I immediately jumped on the laptop after getting the "deets" - again her words not mine, she is 23 after all!. I jumped onto my favourite online shop www.Very.co.uk

I have bought various of items from there such as Dresses, Jumpers and even shoes!. I am quite lucky as it goes as, as a Man I have a fairly feminine body. I am a good size 14-16 so a little curvy, my shoulders are not very broad, my legs are slim and long and my feet can fit into a woman's size 8! 
So Shopping here I can find the perfect dress to go out and party.

After a while of searching I decided to pick out and order The Definitions Textured Bodycon Dress.

Definitions textured Bodycon Dress from www.very.co.uk

I Loved the look of this straight away. The length was perfect, Long enough to look classy and short enough to show off the legs. I love the sleeves as I am not a fan of showing off my arms yet. Although they aren't big I want to tone them up Michelle Obama style more.
The fit of the dress will suit my frame, hopefully, and I hope the dress will look demure enough and not too "Tranny Trash"
And at the reasonable price of £49.00 I was happy to purchase. I wouldn't usually spend so much on a dress but as this is for a proper night out and not a local night out I thought why not.

South Roberts glitter Platform Heels from www.very.co.uk

I also went for a lovely pair of South Roberts Glitter Platform Heels. I Love the Blue colour and think they will go well with the dress. The size i needed was an 8 and that's the highest they had so lucky there.
These are a steal at the price in my eyes! only £15.00 down from £30.00! So I snapped these up sharpish.













So I am all ready for my night out in a few weeks time. I have invited Scarlett to come along, but no doubt she will be too busy trying to find a date online (Wait for her online dating saga). 
With Xmas parties coming up, what are you all wearing? would love to hear what outfits you'll be showing off.

Anyways, Thanks for reading
