Did you know that the colors you choose to wear have a huge impact on how others perceive you – especially when presenting as a woman?
Colors convey subtle messages that can influence whether you appear more feminine or masculine.
So, if your goal is to look more feminine as a crossdresser or transgender woman, paying attention to the colors of your clothes and accessories is essential!
In this blog post on trans / crossdressing transformation tips, I share the meanings of 12 different colors and what they project about your female self.
White
White is associated with purity and innocence, which is why it’s traditionally worn by brides. Wear white if you want to look pure, pristine, and impeccable.
Blue
Light blue sends messages of peace, trust, and understanding. Dark blue is associated with authority and masculinity (think police uniforms), so use this color sparingly.
The best shades of blue for crossdressers and transgender women are light blue and baby blue.
Pink
Pink is the color of love and romance. No surprisingly, it’s also the most feminine color, so you may want to incorporate plenty of pink into your wardrobe.
Red
Red is the most intense color of all and is associated with passion, desire, love, and sexuality. Wear red if you want to be noticed.
Black
Black is associated with power, elegance, and formality. Wear black when you want to look sophisticated and mysterious.
Purple
Purple communicates mystery, magic, and creativity. This is a great color to wear if you want to add a touch of fantasy to your look.
Green
Light green symbolizes freshness and youthfulness, while dark green is associated with money and ambition. Wear a gorgeous shade of green to add a fresh, feminine vibe to your look.
Yellow
Yellow is the color of joy and energy. Wear yellow to show off your fun, playful side. Avoid yellow when you want to be taken seriously.
Orange
Like yellow, orange is associated with joy, enthusiasm, and attraction. This is a great color to wear when you want to liven things up.
Brown
Brown is a stable, wholesome, and down-to-earth color. Wear brown for mellow occasions or if you want to appear reliable and genuine.
Gray
Gray is a great color to wear when you need to come across as professional and trustworthy. Too much gray can get boring though, so be sure to punch it up with some fun colors.
Beige
Beige is a simple, conservative color that’s friendly, approachable and non-threatening. It’s perfect for times when you want people to open up to you.

my favorite color is pink
My colour is blue (first of all royal blue) but I have some purple, red, green, black, white dresses, too. I wear it, which I have set.
Laura, that blue dress looks great on you,
but that red lipstick throws every thing off.
Maybe pink or burgundy would be better when you wear that dress.
Thank you, you’re right.
Definitely BLACK!
I find it goes with everything and I find it a nice feminine but sexy and mysterious color.
PattiKay….I agree! You look fabulous in black and the crystal earrings ..O My!
pink color is girly, it is my favorite
White does if for me. Not because it is virginal but because it is soft.
Wearing white can make you feel ultra sexy.

hi, I just discovered your website. I love it. I am 52 years old. Secretly, I have been feminine dressing for years. I wish the Internet existed over 30 years ago, when I first shaved my legs and slipped on my first pair suntan pantyhose. I felt so good!
Since I’m fairly new to this my wardrobe is rather limited. Most of what I have is in earth tones (browns, grays, and blues). I’m finding it hard to find really sexy clothes in my size.
I’m so excited to be commenting but it looks like the last comments were two yrs ago! In a way I feel like I’m an this lonely island but, what the heck – here goes! My absolute favorite color is baby blue! A short black skirt, black nylons, black heels, and a 3/4 length sleeve baby blue cashmere sweater makes this girl feel very feminine and pretty!!
As it should Malyssa. You look fabulous in blue. I love that top, I’m jealous.
I too am new here, (Mar 2017). I have to say my favorite colors are shades of green. But I have many different colors in my wardrobe.
Much love ❤
