One of the biggest mistakes many crossdressers and TG women make is dressing too sexy.

This often looks ridiculous – ESPECIALLY as you get older.

Does that mean you need to turn down your sex appeal after a certain age?

Absolutely not, girlfriend!

All you need to do is follow these 3 simple rules for dressing sexy at any age:

Rule #1: Show some skin (just not too much)

Short skirts and low cut tops are undeniably sexy, but you shouldn’t go too far with this. Here are a couple guidelines to keep in mind:

• Your skirt should be no shorter than fingertip length when you stand with your arms to your sides.
• Your top should show no more than 40% of your bust.

At the same time, you shouldn’t be TOO covered up since that just screams “old lady”. Show off your feminine assets, but do so in a tasteful and classy way.

Rule #2: Find the right proportions

Proportion refers to the way your clothes work together in length, width, size and volume.

For example:

• A short skirt paired with a short top looks slutty.
• A long skirt paired with a long top looks dowdy.
• A full skirt paired with a full top makes you look heavy.
• A tight skirt paired with a tight top makes you look like a sausage (unless you have a body like Giselle Bundchen!).

You should never go too far in any one direction. That means if you wear something tight or skimpy, the rest of your outfit should balance things out.

For example:

• A short skirt should be paired with a more covered top.
• A skimpy top should be paired with a more covered bottom.
• A tight skirt should be paired with a fuller top.
• A tight top should be paired with a fuller skirt.

Rule #3: Wear luxurious fabrics

The final piece of the sexy puzzle is the fabrics you wear.

Think slutty and what comes to mind? A spandex skirt, barely there glittery top, and patent leather stripper boots, right?

Sexy, on the other hand, is associated with luxurious fabrics like silk, velvet, lace, and cashmere.

When shopping for clothes, look for fabrics that are rich and sensuous – rather than cheap and tacky.

Final thoughts …

The bottom line is that you are NEVER too old to be your sexy femme self. Just be sure to keep it classy.

As always, I’ve love to hear your thoughts on this topic. Please leave me your comments below!

And if you’re already mastered the art of sexy ageless dressing, don’t forget to include a photo.

I hope your summer is off to a great start! I’m in Mexico enjoying some sun before heading back to chilly San Francisco.

I don’t know about you, but warm weather always inspires me to look my best …

Summer is a great time to be a girl, so here are 7 tips for looking extra SEXY this summer:

1. Get a pair of oversized sunglasses

Oversized sunglasses are trendy, sexy, and glamorous, but be sure to choose flattering frames. Most TG girls have angular features, so look for rounded frames to balance out your face.

2. Change your perfume

Changing your perfume is a great way to get into the mood for summer. Take a break from heavy, musky fragrances and choose something light and fruity for the summer. My current favs are Fresh Sugar Lemon, DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom, and Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh.

3. Try a colorful eyeliner

Colorful eyeliner is a big trend right now and it’s a perfect look for the summer. Try a touch of blue, green, or purple eyeliner on your upper or lower eyelids. (Avoid pink eye liner since it can make your eyes look tired.) Keep the rest of your makeup muted.

4. Go totally bare

There is nothing as sexy as smooth silky skin, so why not go totally bare and remove ALL your body hair for the summer? I guarantee you will feel VERY girly. You’ll also feel cooler and smell fresher – always nice for the feminine experience.

5. Highlight your hair

Nothing says summer like highlights, so add some highlights to your hair or pick up a highlighted wig. By the way, girls of all ethnicities can wear highlights. Auburn or chocolate highlights look fabulous with dark hair.

6. Get a spray tan

Suntans are sexy and make your body look thinner and more toned. But instead of frying in the sun or messing with self tanners, why not indulge in a spray tan from a salon? Spray tans cost $ 25-$ 50 and last about a week, so they’re a great thing to do before a special event or girly photo shoot.

7. Invest in a new dress

For my last tip, I am giving you permission to go shopping! A sexy new sundress is a great way to kick off the summer. Look for flowing, gathered styles to create the illusion of curves.

Now let’s hear from YOU! Do you have any special plans for the summer of 2011? What are YOU going to do to look extra sexy and girly this season?
