    Hi there! I'm looking for resources (anything from books to blogs to online communities will do) that have specific information about navigating fashion and clothing when you're trans* (especially when you're just exploring gender for the first time). I'd be interested to see things geared toward anyone- ftms, mtfs, and/or non-binary folk. Thanks!

    I'd be interested as well.

    One good make-up book I've found is "Making Faces" by Kevyn Aucoin.

    I found a really awesome guide as far as necklines and face shapes, Necklines Guide | glamcheck

    Also something that I'm embarrassed to say was always a mystery to me, matching colors,
    Color Theory For Men Who Want To Dress Well : Ask Andy About Clothes
    The color theory stuff I got just because I'm into art and computers. But the wardrobe stuff is amazingly helpful.

    Any good ideas for clothing stores for bigger girls? I like Lane Bryant personally but I would like to have options.

    Maurices? I used to shop there when I was doing the femme routine. Decent plus sized section. There's Coldwater Creek, got a mother who's fond of it.
