I think Fashion Bug will have a visitor soon Wendy thanks.

Thanks for the offer Holly, promise not to steal the limelight? Hmm, then again, maybe that would be a good thing. I'd be invisible .

How's the weather that time of the year Apen?

We (wife and kids) stayed at Mandalay Bay last year and had an absolute blast. Have a ball, and remember what they say;

"What happens in Vegas, gets plastered all over Crossdressers.com".

I have trouble imagining living in Vegas, but it is one of the BEST places to visit. Talk about CD shopping...!!!....GO GIRL!!! tell us how it turns out. wenda.

[carolynhcd]

I will be in Vegas from Sunday eve until midday Thursday, April 21. Anyone have any suggestions for me. I will be on a business conference, but my boss knows I am CD and I so want to experience something out of the ordinary. Please, girls, help me out! I don't want to habe to play a boy for four days "straight!"

Have a blast in Vegas, we were just at Mandalay Bay two weeks ago. Fantastic! Also try to stop by Glamour Boutique II at 714 E. Sahara Ave. They are a crossdressers specialty store, and did a great makeover for me last fall. They also know all the CD friendly hot spots. They have a great selection of clothes to shop from in all our special sizes. Check them out at glamourboutique.com and have lots of fun. You have a special wife.

My wife and I spent all day yesterday shopping to get ready for the trip.

It is quite hard tryi g to find tops for my big shoulders (24" wide) and chest (48"). I found something a the Dress Barn for Women, however. I found a few tops that I thought would work, good thing I tried them on as they didn't leave room for breasts.

Picked up a ring and earings to match the pink color of the top I found. My wife was, at last, enjoying everthing until I picked up the earings. Although we made an agreement that I could get my ears pierced, she's not ready for it. She didn't say anything, at first, but I could tell.

Later she indicated that she hoped I would at least wait until after going to Texas in July for her parents 50th anniversary.

I told her that I was going to cut the pin off, and superglue them on instead of getting pierced. She was happy again.

I've a pair of pearl earings that I mentioned before about supergluing them on. Works well. The new ones were only $6 so I figured, what the heck, try it on these too

I found a nice pink handbag, with a long strap, at DSW (a shoe/accessory store).

Then we went over to the Mens' Warehouse (they sell suits etc.) and bought a new suit. I need one bad, since I've lost 55 pounds. This suit was practically made for me, as the coat fit perfect, the waist on the pants was right on, and the only work they had to do was cuff them, which they did in 20 minutes.

Picked up a white tee top that has a ruffled v-neck at Coldwater Creek.

Oh, and my wife got a whole bunch of things too

[Holly]

Donna, sounds like things are falling into place quite nicely. I hope you don't forget to pack the CAMERA! The two of you are going to have the times of your lives! BTW, I hope the suit is NOT for Vegas!

[DonnaT]

Thanks Holly

We just bought a camera/camcorder combo for the trip, also. So it won't be forgotten Trick will be to get my wife to photgraph me, but it does have a remote . Hopefully I can get one with Frank Mirano (female impersonator) at La Cage.

The suit is for work Got a hearing on Tuesday.
