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 gosh, your comments on these colors are right on the mark girl! I find I get the most attention wearing red, but yet the most approachable when I”m wearing beige or tan. I find soft browns warm & cozy, pinks playful and feminine. I’m careful when to wear yellow & Orange, as I’m not 18 anymore and tend to me more on the more serious side..hehehe.
Thanks for the insight hun,

One of my favorite things to wear is a short mini skirt thats pink and has little white stars on it
I wear thigh high stockings and black heels with it along with a white long sleeve top with a turtle neck collar
The combination makes me feel sexy and I usually get complimented when I’m out in public shopping or dining
Although I have other options this skirt and top are two of my favorites
I always seem to be noticed when I’m wearing these two items so I know that I look good wearing them
I’m a prettty simple woman. I like basic black and light brown colors for my normal wardrobe. Here is an example of what I was wearing yesterday. What do you think?
Pastel colors, orange, brown, beige, all look crap with my skin color (asian). My fav colors are hot pink and black. Also like wearing jeans, greys, and neon colors. Medium blue, medium purple, and white are okay too.
