Some stories are too good to keep to ourselves, and today’s Eye Candy feature is one of them. With a journey that started as a playful moment and blossomed into a full embrace of femininity, our spotlight guest has found confidence, style, and a community that celebrates self-expression. From fashion favorites to thrilling adventures, Kandi is here to share a little glimpse into her world—so get ready to be inspired!
Let’s start by telling everyone where you are from?
I guess it would be proper to say Howdy from Houston, Texas. It’s a huge city with a variety of places to explore. What I love about the city is the diversity of people here. With that brings an amazing assortment of food choices. Watch your waistline when visiting.
When did you first start dressing and how did it come about?
Well, like most truths and courage, it was one drunken night after a company Christmas party.
My wife was wearing a nice gown, pantyhose, heels, and the works. We were quite flirty that night and I couldn’t stop telling her how amazing she looked in her outfit. So we get to our hotel after the party and my wife starts to remove her clothes, and while laughing and fondling each other, she begins to dress me in her clothes. She put every bit of her clothes on me.
It turned us on so much that we continued to dress me up. It’s fun, and she likes to tease me. She enjoys playing dress-up with me and it turned into a fetish for us.
From playtime with my wife to going full cross-dressing took some time and my wife wasn’t quite sure. She eventually embraced it as she saw that it made me feel good.
It took a while to take that step to complete the full woman look, from just wearing hosiery to heels to then adding a complete outfit.
As I began to photograph myself, I started liking the way I looked and toyed with the idea of adding a wig, but I still would only do backshot photos as my face was still a male’s face.
I was trying to maintain a sense of masculinity while playing dress-up but I didn’t like what I saw. The art piece was missing something.
Adding makeup to my routine was a huge decision and a good decision as it completely changed how I looked and how I felt.
The temporary transformation from feeling masculine to feminine is incredible for me.
It’s a bit of a high.
How did you come up with your Femme name?
I posted in my friends group chat that I was considering a femme name and that I wanted them to choose one for me. There were a few names thrown out there, but Kandi seemed to be the favorite. After some time, Kandi turned into Kandi-Licious.
How often do you dress?
I try to dress twice a month to take photos. On occasion I’ll go out as Kandi. When I do go out, it’s either to an LGBTQ environment or to kink events. I try to stick to places that are judgement free.
Are you married/in a relationship? If yes, are you able to share your female self with your partner?
I am married, and she shares this new world with me. She did kick start it.
Tell us what goes into getting the perfect photo?
It takes me forever to take photos. Decisions on the outfit are always the challenge.
I set my phone to video mode, connect to the selfie light, hit record and just strut, pose, have attitude and enjoy the moment.
It’s too difficult to snap a single photo at a time. It occurred to me that I should set it in video mode and then capture photos from the video (duh). That also allowed me to create short videos. Win win!
What are some of your favorite outfits/fashions?
First and foremost hosiery is the key to every outfit. I love tight fitting mini dresses that cling to me. I recently added skirts and pants (leggings etc)
To me dresses are easy. No need to find the right blouse, etc to complete an outfit. Throw on a dress, some jewelry and you’re done.
Stockings or pantyhose?
Oh now this is my bread and butter as they say. Seamless pantyhose with stockings overlayed on top or under the pantyhose. I always wear shimmer dance tights as a base layer. So many options to overlay on top of them.
Heels or flats?
Heels always and a minimum 4 inch. I’ve actually never worn anything taller than 4 inches. My favorite season is thigh high boot season. Unfortunately, it gets way too hot here in Texas to wear thigh high boots year round.
Favorite places to go when dressed?
I love going to dance clubs or karaoke bars. LGBTQ friendly environment of course. I’m always looking for an excuse to dress up and go out.
Go to accessories for a night out?
Always with the tights and heels. To me, those two items make the outfit. I spend so much time deciding which pair of tights to wear. So many options. I love women’s fashion, mainly lingerie, hosiery, and dresses. Oh and the shoes. Goodness, they are amazing!!! I have more than my wife and although she fits into mine, she’s scared of heights.
Who is/are your female role model(s) and why?
Ariana Grande is the queen of stilettos and hosiery. Love her style and fashion. I scroll her photos for fashion ideas.
Tell us some fun facts about yourself. What are your hobbies (either when dressed or not), likes, things you do in your spare time, or anything else you would like to share?
Me and my wife love to travel and we always look for the most haunted hotels to stay at. And yes we’ve had some ghostly encounters.
I love mountaineering and backpacking for weeks at a time. I’m a part time artist and full time martial art practitioner.
My favorite hobby is transforming into Kandi.
Any stories you would like to share about yourself and your journey?
My journey has been incredible. It’s been challenging, but rewarding. I found a great community to be a part of and friends that I adore. There is one particular friend other than my wife that has been with me from the beginning. Without her help and support there would not be Kandi.
Thank you, my Galveston Queen!!!!
If you have social media, what is the best way for others to follow you?
I am not on any typical social media platforms. Kandi-Licious is a private part of my life.
I am on a social platform where I am free to be me without any shame. Fetlife.com
Username: Kandi-Licious_CD
Before we go, would you like to send a message to your fellow girls out there or a closing statement.
Let’s all continue to lead a non-judgmental and free spirited life. Enjoy the things that bring you happiness……
Kisses!!!!
