If you’re like many of my transgender or crossdressing readers, you might not be able to present yourself as a woman each day.
That doesn’t mean you have to lose your female side when it’s time to put on the pants!
In this post, I share 5 ways to stay in touch with your femininity – even in male mode.
1. Wear Women’s Underwear
Let’s start with the most obvious tip, shall we? Wearing women’s underwear underneath your male clothing is the easiest way to connect with your feminine self on a daily basis.
Aside from that, women’s panties tend to be more comfortable than men’s boxers or briefs. Plus, they come in loads of cute and sexy styles to add some secret pizazz to your outfit.
2. Try Stealth Crossdressing
Wearing lingerie under your clothes is a classic, but why stop there? Sneaking a piece of women’s clothing into your daily outfit is a great way to feel girly.
A lot of women’s clothing can pass for unisex, so try wearing women’s:
- Basic tees
- Button-down shirts
- Jeans and pants
Don’t forget about accessories! You could also play with wearing women’s boots or using a tote bag as a laptop bag or briefcase.
3. Apply Incognito Makeup
There are lots of ways to incorporate makeup into your daily look, even when presenting as a male. Here are 4 must-have makeup items:
- Concealer or foundation – Apply a thin layer to cover under eye circles or blemishes.
- Setting powder – Apply to shiny spots on your face, like the nose or forehead.
- Clear mascara – Use it to make your eyelashes look subtly longer and fuller.
- Uncolored lipstick – Instead of boring Chapstick, care for your lips with a clear lipstick.
4. Use the Power of Scent
Scents have a powerful effect on your brain chemistry and mood, so this is a great way to connect with your feminine side.
Wear women’s perfume instead of cologne. Musky fragrances are the most unisex, so you can wear them without anybody knowing your secret. (Check out my article on perfume to learn more about choosing the right scent.)
Another option is to burn a scented candle with a feminine fragrance in your home or office.
5. Keep Reminders of Your Female Self
Another tip is to surround yourself with reminders of the woman within.
One way to do this is through photos. Keep photos of your femme self on your phone, in your wallet, or even framed and hung up so you can see them often.
You could also carry around items personalized with your feminine name, such as a necklace, keychain, or coffee mug.
6. Try Feminizing Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a powerful way to increase confidence, reprogram habits and behaviors, and improve the way you express yourself as a woman.
Best of all, it’s the ultimate mental escape – allowing you to connect with you female self regardless of your current situation.
Try it for yourself by signing up for my free Unleash Your Inner Woman hypnosis mini-session here.
How do YOU stay connected?
In an ideal world, you’d be free to present yourself as a woman whenever and wherever you wanted. Until then, I hope this gives you ideas for expressing your female side anytime you want!

Hi all…femme feelings for years, but still only a panty and hose wearer.. Almost everyday, just feels so normal!
I had been closeted for a while but I do lovecwhen I get my days to dress up and meet with my bf…I just love my femm side.its so powerful and my boyfriend loves it too and he shows it to me every time we are together..thank you for the tips..love everything you do for us …
Hi Lucille, thank you so much for this blog that’s a endless source of good, pratical and highly usefull tips for CDs. I’ve been reading it for years but only now I’ve decided to post a comment. This particular theme, undercover CD, touched me because it’s something that makes part of my daily routine and it’s something that allow us to keep in touch with our other self. Apart from panties, at this time of the year I just can’t help wearing a pantyhose under my pants (is there anything more fabulous than feeling your legs caressed by them?). Your advice and tips have also helped me to make the “phisycally small step but psychologically huge” that is to venture out “en femme”, although I still don’t feel totally at ease cose I lack confidence in my make-up skills. Things take time but it’s worth waiting cose nothing matches the ineffable joy of going out and beeing seen and perceived as our truselfs. Thanks, Lucille.
I’m arab crossdresser boy, you helped me a lot with this, so thanks very much
I’m out and open with My crossdressing and I wear panties and bra and stockings or pantyhose daily under my boy clothes and I wear purfume and some makeup also. But I prefer to be completely dressed and a free woman. Xoxo
I am also a closet tg, and the things I wear underneath my boy clothes are my panties (wear my panties 24/7) and bra are the number one goto for me. When it”s cold outside I sometimes wear a pair of pantyhose underneath my pants to keep me warm and to keep reminding me that I ‘am a women. I also wear nighties at night when i goto bed. Another piece of clothing I wear sometimes underneath is a one piece bathing suit. And lastly I like to paint my toe nails.
I am with you Sara panties, bra/camisole and pantyhose (fall &winter) are my underdressing choices… nightgowns or babydoll lingerie for sleeping, of course!
I am still a closeted beginner when it comes to cross dressing. When I do want to express my femininity, I have a number of women’s sweaters I can wear. My favourites are a gray cowl neck, a black cable funnel neck with angora and an elegant gray snowflake turtleneck. I also have a red cashmere crew/jewel neck cardigan that I love. I have only had the courage to wear it in public once. I wore it with jeans and a white turtleneck shirt with the top two buttons undone. A cute preppy look. While out shopping, no one gave it a second look including the women who helped me with my purchases. That was a huge boost in my confidence. Thank you Lucille for this wonderful place to explore and share our femininity!
