Night Queens !

This brief posting covers one single event only, visiting a drag show, hosted by the Frankfurt-based drag artist Jessica Walker, together with my wife. My wife had met her before at some other occasion and she might have recognized my wife but likely did not make the connection that Franzi actually is the husband of my wife. At least that is what I was thinking. Portrait of the evening The show consisted of four drag artist that took turns performing. Outfit of the evening is this wonderful very light black silk dress that you might have seen in an earlier posting, completed with a matching scarf and glasses. As the weather was very poor that evening, we took a cab to get there and another one to get home. And as the cab was already waiting, I forgot to have a picture taken with the Night Queens. What a bummer.

Golden Girl

I had bought this long skirt and matching cardigan at a market in the Netherlands. After having completed it with some matching golden sneakers, I wore this outfit for the first time on this fine day in May 2024.   Portrait of the day  As I was out the door fairly early that day, my first stop was at a nice little café not far from our home, where I hung out for half an hour, before heading on to the city center. Along the river “Main” on the northern bank. The northern bank is the “Frankfurt side” vs. the “Sachsenhausen side” on the southern bank, or – in local dialect – “Hipp de bach” (above the brook) vs. “Dripp de bach” (beneath the brook). In the background you can see “Alte Brücke” (Old Bridge, the oldest one crossing the “Main”) and on the left-hand hand side the small  exhibition hall “Portikus,”  that Franzi visited in September 2023 (please see my posting “ Lieblingskleid ” from 01.06.2024). Lunch at “Kleinmarkthalle.” No explanation needed, as I had descri...

The allure of a moderate look

Long blond hair, a skimpy pink dress, high heels, and big boobs have a certain allure to the common crossdresser, and I am the first one to admit that. But sometimes, I just want to take on a more moderate look, less flashy, less risky (if you happen to care more for passing than for humiliation), but no less feminine that is.   On this day in April 2024, Franziska picked her brunette wig, a lovely and unobtrusive knee-length, cottony dress with covered shoulders, and some nicely color-matched wedge sandals, with moderate heel. And off she went to enjoy a day out on the town with a little highlight and new experience in the evening. Portraits of the day At the local bus stop, having asked a fellow passenger to take a photo. Again, this is one of my earlier CDH contributions. Franzi’s public pictures at CDH tend to cover the most recent outing, weeks or months before I am able to cover the whole day and story here in my blog. You can find a link to the most recent contribution as th...
