I wear lolita fashion for myself; for fierce femininity on my own terms; for bringing strange and unexpected beauty into the ordinary world.
🎀
I wear j-fashion as part of a community that celebrates all this and more; that delights in elegance and excess and experimentation.
Elya is seated on a stone bench; they are wearing a burgundy and off-white Metamorphose JSK and matching headdress with a white blouse, burgundy socks, and black platform mary jane shoes. They are carrying a black velvet heart-shaped purse. Elya is standing in front of a backlit curtain, posing to show off their outfit. They are wearing a black and white old-school style JSK by The Black Ribbon, a short-sleeve black blouse, black and white striped socks, and black shoes. Their full-head mogwai mask is topped with a black and white rectangle headdress, and they are carrying a Gizmo plush which is wearing a matching dress. A close-up of the details of Elya's outfit; they are wearing a black Atelier Pierrot JSK with a corset-laced bodice, a purple Lady Sloth chiffon blouse, coordinating necklaces and rings from Néant Glass and BB&B, and a brooch by Puvithel. Elya poses with their bat'leth, wearing an Angelic Forest "Girly Gang" JSK, Lady Sloth chiffon blouse, Teja Jamilla printed tights, and Cotton Candy Feet shoes, all in various shades of lavender. They are carrying an ita bag shaped like a starfleet combadge. Matching lavender bows adorn their head over their ridged forehead.

There's no place like home.
Especially when your home is a crumbling cliffside castle filled with cozy libraries and your friends are the owls in the attic, curious ghosts, and soft breezes from shipwrecked shores.

She’s up! I’ve literally been trying to figure out this pattern for over a year, and I’m so pleased with how it turned out. This one is trickier than most of my patterns, so be prepared. I think it’s worth it, though. Happy Holo-days, all. 🖖

Picture of a completed cross stitch. It has a square white mat frame around it. The fabric is black. The pattern is a square image with a fancy looking frame around it. Inside there’s open holodeck doors like from Star Trek. There is a large red Christmas tree ornament floating in the opening. It says, “Happy Holo-days” on it in fancy lettering. Behind the ornament you can see pine trees, snowflakes, and the black and yellow holodeck grid. A closer picture of the same cross stitch pattern. In this one you can mostly just see the red ornament. From this close, the individual cross stitches and backstitching is more clear.

In 2010, I was cast as 'emlI' in the Chicago debut of A #KlingonXmas Carol. This past weekend, I came full circle doing the cameo that I once helped our guest stars into costume for (I needed no help 🤣).
Seattle is using the same Tiny Tim & 2 women who were 'emlI' in Chicago are in the show again! 😍

NORTHERN LIGHTS (2005)
Acrylic - 10” x 13”

It’s during the dark times of the year when lights seem most magical…and sought after. I’ve always loved colored lights, especially during winter when things can seem dreary and monochromatic. 1/3
A tiny gazebo with a round dome is set in a wintry scene of snow covered evergreens. Standing among candles there, a wizard gestures and four doves flutter into a sky lit by aurora. The "Northern Lights" are wandering ribbons rising like curtains of light against rich blue of the night sky. The gazebo is decorated for the holidays with a garland and wreath. From a beaded chain strung from the roof, symbols include a bell, a 6-pointed star, a moon, and a heart. Casting light on himself, the wizard holds a lantern in his offhand. His long white beard trails down his chest. He wears a red cap and cream colored robes with fringed bell sleeves. Below the gazebo, a path winds up from the foreground to the gazebo.

Requoting this post for this JSK feels silly lol

I really lucked out when some mulled wine spilled on my dress (oof)--the red fabric looked normal when dried, and hand sanitizer removed stains off the white lace!

Just want to reemphasize this. I know we don’t love Keller, but it’s really, really important to block Darren White from office.

If you live in Albuquerque, please go vote for Keller in the runoff even if you didn't in the general (I didn't).

He's lacking in some important areas but his White supremacist opponent will cause much more harm. It matters a lot.

It's the #Belter equivalent of #ally'all or #vousautres in #TheExpanse. But we get it, people don't always get those two right either.
Probably the most misused word in #LangBelta is "beltalowda." It's a pronoun. It's grammatically plural and refers to all Belters.

Not only is Eurovision welcoming Israel (while banning Russia for the same reasons), but they’re willing to let go of Spain, Slovenia, Ireland and the Netherland, countries that have not committed war crimes.

Eurovision is willing to self-destruct just to protect Israel.

Boycott Eurovision.

The Poster is in a red tartan x white x black accent lolita fashion coord between a Christmas tree and a wreath, indoors. Their dress has a print of little woodland creatures making pastries with the apples and fruits of the forest. It is Metamorphose temps de fille / Patissier in the Forest Mostly same coord, except the Poster is wearing their tartan puffer jacket on top. They are in a different building containing the wondrous kitty cat Juno, supervising one of her humans being cringe documenting for their coord/wardrobe tracker
