It's super cute, but not so feminine as to contrast my face.

It hides the bits that stick out where I don't want them to.

It fakes the bits that don't stick out where I do want them to.

It's comfortable. It's (a little bit) spinny.

I'm never taking it off! That is all.

Very nice. I've personally been hesitant of collars like that on dresses because they remind me too much of the stuffy button-downs and polo shirts I used to wear, but this could make me reconsider.

At some point you will probably want to take it off to wash it. What's it made out of?

The label's in Chinese, but the internet tells me it's 60% Rayon. (I got it as part of my shotgun "buy everything cheap and girly on Amazon" experiment)

Now that you mention it, the collar might be why I don't feel too stupid wearing it. I'm used to seeing my face sitting above a collar, but the whole thing is obviously feminine which keeps the dysphoria at bay.

Interesting perspective. But rayon, gah... I've got a couple rayon garments, but I never wear them because washing them is kind of a pain. I do it by hand, they get really heavy from soaking up so much water, and they take forever to air dry... maybe I'm doing it wrong lol

It looks good on you. I would add a belt around your waist to enhance the illusion.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Enhance what illusion? Did you mean "highlight your waistline" ?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Yes. English is not my native language.

Oh! Good idea!

I should get some pretty belts 🤩

Is that a cat door?! SEND PICS

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, it lets the cats come in and out of the bedroom at night without having to open the door for them.

🐱 (cat)

That's not what I meant, and you know it. You've got unpaid cat tax.

Haha, alright. I'll try to get a shot with Blåhaj :3
