Happy ABQ Pride parade! Of course I wore the parade JSK (from Fluffy Tori) to march with the NM Women's Chorus @nmwomenschorus.bsky.social and I'll be at our booth later this afternoon! Har'eyngan maH! taHjaj! [we are people of the rainbow, may it continue! or more succinctly: Remain Queer!] 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Elya poses in front of a rainbow-decorated vehicle lined up for the ABQ Pride parade. They are wearing a festive lolita coord featuring a black jsk printed with a pastel rainbow parade of different kawaii animals carrying various pride flags, over a white mesh blouse printed with pastel rainbow stars, socks that match the blouse, and black shoes with iridescent metal toe caps. They're carrying a rainbow flag with the Klingon symbol in one hand and a glittery rainbow fan in the other.

A selfie showing Elya's magnificent stained glass window hat, decora'd sunglasses, sparkly turquoise bat'leth necklace, cake slice earrings in the nonbinary flag colors, kn95 mask printed with a crowd of people waving rainbow flags and signs, and many other accessories. A pickup truck bearing a New Mexico Women's Chorus banner and a plethora of vibrant rainbow decorations is visible behind them.

Today's concert attire was EGA/ouji (less room for petticoats at this venue, also IDoWhatIWant) including Miss Danger, Lady Sloth, Dandy Puppeteer, and a few things i made myself. 🖤🩵 🎵 never one thing, no~ not one thing at all 🎶

Elya poses in front of a stained glass window to show off their EGA/ouji coord. They are wearing a black mesh blouse with a bright turquoise jabot, a black brocade waistcoat, and black wide leg trousers. They're holding a large clacky fan in rainbow pride flag colors.

same coord, different pose, with the fan now closed and held at their shoulder.

selfie showing more details: they're wearing a rainbow hot air balloon brooch at the top of the jabot, an acrylic treble clef ring, a stack of beaded bracelets, iridescent metal ear hoops, their hair in a simple twist updo with a hint of turquoise clipped in, vibrant rainbow eyeshadow, and a black kn95 mask.

Happy #InternationalLolitaDay, and #HappyPride! As usual, June ILD coincides with our @nmwomenschorus.bsky.social performance, so I wore a mostly kuro coord with our official turquoise accent as my concert attire!

Elya poses in front of a wall with a wood mosaic of various religious symbols, and a progress pride flag on a stand. They are wearing a mostly black lolita coord featuring an Atelier Pierrot corset jsk with turquoise bodice lacing over a lace blouse with voluminous bishop sleeves. They are wearing a black wig with colorful purple and turquoise accents and a black rectangle headdress with turquoise ribbon; black tights and mary jane shoes. One hand is on their hip and the other is raised to show off their treble clef ring.

Another pose showing the outfit from a different angle; the detail of the headdress is more visible.

Another pose to show off the ruffles of the skirt.

And a selfie to show more
of their accessories, including a heart shaped turquoise pendant engraved with a pentacle and their black kn95 mask printed with a pattern of tiny rainbow colored hearts.

cat tax: Mr. Worf right now, and a few weeks ago with a perfect lil blep.

A velvety black cat with gold eyes looks up from his loaf formation; the green and pink ear of a Grogu plush is visible in front of him.

Same black cat in a brighter photo; he's sitting next to an upside down galaxy squishmallow and has forgotten to put his tongue back in his mouth so he's got a perfect lil blep going on.

Coord for actually going to the office on Wednesday: gothic carnival vibes featuring a couple of the pieces I picked up at @thegreatlace.bsky.social last weekend: a delightful skirt from Enchantlic Enchantilly (i already had the matching necklace & ring) and a new Néant Glass ring. #EGLFashion 🎀🎡🖤

Elya poses in front of an open globe sculpture with strings of paper cranes hanging inside; trees with pink blossoms visible in the background. They are wearing a gothic/classic carnival themed lolita coordinate.

A closer look at Elya's coord, showing the darkly whimsical print on the skirt.

A closer look at the accessory details, including a hot air balloon statement pendant and bauble shaped ring which match elements of the skirt print, a stained glass coffin shaped ring with a pressed flower, a black rosette with a gold wax seal, and a ribbon brooch embellished with a crystal pendant.

A selfie: Elya is wearing a tiny black top hat with bat wings and a silk rose at a rakish angle, rainbow tinted thick hoop earrings, and a blue kn95 mask that picks up one of the colors of the ribbon brooch.

Standing in a grassy, sunlit park, 'elya is wearing a black, white, and burgundy EGL coord. One hand on their hip, one raised to shield their eyes from the sun, searching for the cloaked Klingon ship they know they left parked here SOMEWHERE.

Now with arms raised in a dramatic shrug (which happens to show off the magnificent bell sleeves of their coat) and an exasperated expression on their face, 'elya walks towards the camera to continue the search - the ship must be in another meadow!

a fluffy black cat on my lap, which is covered with a black, white, & red printed blanket. he's sharing space with a stack of slips of paper with round button art, a handheld punch for said art, and a small plastic container with circles of paper already punched out.
