Are you looking for male to female (MTF) fashion tips to help you look your best this summer? If so, you are in the right place!
Even though hot weather can be tricky (hello, sweat!), summer can be a great time to embrace your feminine side. There’s nothing like stepping out en femme in a cute sundress or sexy swimsuit.
Here are 7 tips, tailored specifically for crossdressers and transgender women, to help you look extra sexy and feminine this summer.
1. Rock Some Sexy Sunglasses
Sunglasses are a summer must-have accessory. They not only shield your eyes but also exude a touch of glamour and allure.
Here’s are the best frame shapes to flatter your face:
- Rounded frames balance angular features.
- Angular frames are most flattering for round faces.
Tip: Avoid wearing your sunglasses too high up on your face. Most stylists recommend that your sunglasses should not cover your eyebrows.
2. Illuminate Your Locks
Summer and highlights go hand in hand. Add some highlights to your natural hair or pick up a wig with highlights.
Good news: Crossdressers and transgender women of all skin and hair tones can pull off highlights. Shades like auburn, chocolate, or dark blonde complement darker coloring beautifully.
3. Try a Sun-Kissed Glow
A tan exudes sexiness and gives your body a more toned appearance. Rather than risking sunburn, opt for a self-tanner.
I recommend using a tanning mousse with a mitt applicator for an even, natural-looking tan. Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Body Mousse is an excellent option.
4. Switch Up Your Fragrance
Change your fragrance to match the summer vibe. Take a break from heavy, musky scents and opt for something light and fruity.
Consider these summer-worthy scents:
- On the Beach by Louis Vuitton (unisex, so you can wear it in male mode too!)
- Sugar Lemon by Fresh
- Be Delicious Fresh Blossom by DKNY
- Daisy Eau So Fresh by Marc Jacobs
5. Bid Farewell to Body Hair
Smooth, silky skin is irresistibly sexy. Summer is the perfect time for a full-body shave or wax, bringing out your inner femininity.
You’ll not only feel more girly but also cooler and fresher, enhancing the feminine experience.
6. Lighten Up Your Lip Shade
Summer calls for a shift from deep lip colors to fresh and light hues. Soft pinks, corals, and nudes are ideal choices for a warm weather look.
7. Treat Yourself to a New Dress
Invest in a sexy new sundress to kick off the summer season. Look for flowing, gathered styles that create the illusion of curves.
Now, show off your summer look!
I hope these MTF fashion tips have convinced you that summer is the perfect time to embrace your feminine style.
This applies whether you plan to step out as a woman in public, or simply enjoy your female side in private.
I’d love to see your favorite summer look, so please share your photos below!
Love,
Lucille

Hi lucille i love this dress and shoes i have purchased for the summer
I am ready for the summer taking your advise and getting a spray tan tomorrow!!!!!
Hi Girls, skipping the sun may sound like fun but you if you do, please take your vitamin “D” capsules because the sun is what makes it in the human body and there really isn’t any other way to do it. True, you have been told to drink your milk and all of that but it really doesn’t give you all that you need. True again getting too much sun destroys skin and makes you old before your time but you have to also think of another thing, skin cancer of which there are different types; all I ask is to be careful in the sun and have fun. 😉
I’m gonna try the spray tan…sounds
safer that sun tanning…
Great tip!

Wow, Joan…I’d love to view your outfit. I’, planning to wear a sundress, wig and heels….it’s scary though…may resort to wig, jeans and pink tee…

I love the part about the dress! A loose, light dress is SO liberating. Cool, comfortable, as lovely and colorful as you like, sways, swishes, looks and feels GRAND. Great for traveling, too.
I thoroughly endorse those notes of CAUTION: too much sun is your ENEMY. Sunscreen and shade is your FRIEND. Think ahead to when you are much older. Some care now will keep you from being one of those wrinkly, speckled old ladies (or not nearly as much, anyway…). Just that much less concern over cancer, too.
I second the sunscreen and shade, only 39 and already had a skin cancer cut out of my forehead, got another one to come out of my shoulder… (too much sun in a little running top with no sunscreen)
I might go out to PRIDE dressed as my sissy self.thanks to your summer advice…

Every year I march in the PRIDE parade with some other veterans, in a military-looking outfit. But I make sure that it definitely says GIRL. I love it, get some great feedback.
