When my dresses disappeared I had to find new ways to express myself. I had no sisters, my mother was deceased and had no other close female relatives so i turned to my grandmother's closet. She for many years went along with me playing dress up letting me try on her dresses, shoes, bras, panties and pantyhose. She let me sleep in her night gowns when i would spend the night at her house and let me put my hair up in curlers at night as well so i'd be pretty in the morning. For me this arrangement was heaven and she never seemed to have a problem with it at least not for several years. Today's picture is actually me in her dress jewelry and lipstick. Sorry I'm not brave enough to include my face in the picture. I would guess i was about 7 or 8 at the time.
