I have a bet, need to dress up completely as a woman for a costume party, can you help me choose stuff?
I had dinner with a group of friends last night, and all night the women were complaining about how it is much harder for women to look good than men, they are expected to wear less comfortable clothes that are often more revealing, high heels that make their feet sore, spend more time doing hair and cosmetics, and so on. I said they should stop moaning because they liked it all really and it is not as hard to wear as they say it is. So after a few drinks they made me this bet. In 2 weeks one of them is having a 30th birthday costume party, and the theme for the costumes is "come as you aren’t" so you have to dress as something that you’re not. To win the bet I have to dress as a woman, completely in women’s clothes, so I can find out for myself how "difficult" it really is for women! I must stay completely in "costume" all night if I am to win.
Well it sounds a bit crazy but I like a good laugh so I have decided to do it, especially as they think I won’t be brave enough, and I have decided to go totally all out for it and shock them all! I want to go completely over the top with the whole outfit and I am going to stay in "character" all through the party and try and be a "hot chick" all night!
I am not really an expert in women’s stuff so I need some help, can you help me with any of these questions…
- I have ordered this dress as the main part of my outfit

- now I need to get all the other things. The biggest thing is shoes, I need some really high heels that look classy without being too slutty, I am US mens size 8, what size will I need in womens shoes, is it the same? I also need a long dark wig, make up, fake nails, a purse, jewellry, all that kind of stuff. If you can give me advice on what to get and where to get it, off websites would be easiest and least embarrassing, please let me know! Also I am not sure about what to wear underneath, I obviously want to keep my dignity! But the bet is that EVERYTHING I wear should be womens not mens and they are sure to want to check because it is a big bet! I guess I will need a bra and something to stuff it with, some kind of panties and maybe pantyhose or stockings? Any suggestions please!
Finally any tips to look and act more feminine, I am obviously going to shave my face but I guess I will have to do my legs and arms as well! Should I use some perfume? Any advice on how to walk, talk, stand and sit? And I will probably have to go on the dance floor at least one time so I need to stay in character for that! Also I need to have a female name, I think one that sounds exotic but not like out of a bad movie!
Thanks for reading sorry that was a long question but I have a lot to do, now I know why you ladies take so long to get ready every time you go out! Thanks for all your help, 10 points for the most detailed and helpful answer!
He He, that sounds very funny indeed! I live in the UK so don’t know what shops over there will accommodate your needs but good luck on finding the perfect outfit, and remember when you walk out of the ladies loos to check for toilet paper stuck to your heels!!!
