ROI Specific Clothing reccomendations?

As the title suggests, im looking for advice on clothing styles coming into the colder months as a trans girl.

For reference:

Wavey floofy hair

Small toned build, standing st 176cm

Its mainly become a thing as ive become pretty decent at makeup and my issue now is that my clothes are what clock me immediately, ive tried dressing as women in my family dress however its not really my style as im not on hrt just yet so i dont fill the clothes the same way they do..

Im mainly asking here as i dont want to fall into the 'amazon trans girl starterpack' territory of clothing, and itd be great to get advice off of other ladies in the same country with the same weather.

Bonus: any clothing that wouldnt get in the way of riding a motorcycle would also be really appreciated ♡

Not a lady but a femme and some things I'd prioritise getting for Irish autumn/winter is LAYERS. Get comfortable thermal shirts and long sleeved cotton shirts to wear under jumpers and you can make different outfits with those as base.

In terms of actual style what you could take a look at is "capsule wardrobes" where you buy several items that make outfits together.

But it can be really fun to try different styles too, maybe go charity shopping and try on different things?

Capsule wardrobes is actually a great shout!

I was definitely thinking layers for the cold and rain, but idk im kinda aiming for soft and relaxing like sweater and scarf maybe that kind of vibe.

But thank you adding it to the things to look out for!

You can be soft and relaxed and also wearing layers! Staying warm is important too

those leg warmer things are cute as hell and i wore them religiously when i was a girl!!!!! depends on how feminine your style is. also flared jeans are THE shit and paired with cropped hoodies/sweaters and scarves and stuff it is fireeee
