Welcome to Julie's World

Welcome to my blog, a little window into my adventures as Julie! Below, you'll find a few glimpses of places I've explored over the years, some of which I've revisited to experience their unique charm across different seasons. My philosophy is simple: embrace your feminine side and dress the part, and the world is open to you. The effort you put in truly affects how you feel and how you are perceived.

Taking that first step can feel the most daunting, but trust me, it gets easier with each outing. It's taken me over forty years to reach this point of comfortable self-expression, so I encourage you not to wait – life is precious, and it's worth taking a chance on yourself. While some might speculate about whether I'm transgender, I'm happy to say I've never encountered negativity. I've even been flirted with a few times, but that's just part of the human experience!

Staying at the Smithy in Bodsham.

Nestled in the tranquil heart of the Kent Downs, within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, lies The Smithy – a charming 17th-century conversion in the quiet hamlet of Bodsham. This detached, single-storey cottage masterfully blends its rich historical character with high-standard, modern comforts, offering an idyllic escape amidst a rolling landscape of fields and woodlands.

Brandy B's 4th Anniversary

Brandy B's fourth anniversary was an absolute triumph, striking the perfect balance between a relaxed atmosphere and vibrant social interaction, making it an ideal haven for us girls. The theme was the Raging 1920s. I was excited, as I had acquired my dress and matching accessories, including 1920s-style shoes, which I believe were actual dance shoes due to their sole and clasp.

Shop until you drop!

I thought I would update you, having some massive bills to pay, car repairs (£900) and electric (£450) which impacts on spending for Julie, as in not buying stuff and going out. And the (£180) for the holiday, so I have to be a bit frugal on spending.

Holidays

It's the time to think about holidays! I didn't have one last year, as in, staying in another place. So with that in mind, I have booked a cottage for 10 nights for Julie. Before I stayed at Parkdean Caravan park, once in Camber sands in a caravan and the other time in Great stone in a bungalow on a caravan park. It was nice enough for the money, and was only for a week.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! Sorry for being late, more work than celebration. Today I decided to go sale shopping, a bit of a treat. I found two nice dresses, and even more reduced, in the shop. One was £50 reduced to £30 and the other was £45 reduced to £18. If you are prepared to do your homework, then you might find a bargain!
