I Plan To Draw Kamala Joshi In A Nauvari Sari. I Feel It Would Suit Her And Hope @cassandraclare Can

I plan to draw Kamala Joshi in a Nauvari sari. I feel it would suit her and hope @cassandraclare can include this in her story or maybe @cassandrajp can also draw her in this attire. I was born and raised in Mumbai so I’m very excited at the prospect of my city being included in a series I love. The Nauvari ( Nine yards of fabric) is also referred to as the Kaashta or Lugade. It is a traditional sari of the state of Maharashtra and Mumbai is the state capital. Unlike other sarees, the Nauvari is built to mirror the traditional trousers that men wore and is made to be comfortable and easy to move in. It was also the staple of the Maratha clan of fighters, which was a clan that rivalled the Mughals in power and firmly established guerrila warfare training in their soldiers.

~Matthew Fairchild's ghost (allegedly to Emma and Julian in a rant)

If someone called me a ten, I'd take it as the greatest insult ever. I'm an infinity. Everyone knows that.

They absolutely should which is exactly why they won't. The only thing that keeping me calm rn is that Akali is getting her first ever legendary as a corrupted star guardian on PC because that's creative and she's my main.

This is great 👍

Kraig’s Retirement Party is about to get absolutely WILD this week 👀

As @bookishjules and I prepare to break down Julian’s letter to Magnus and all the theories that come with it, catch up with last week’s episode where we ranted about inconsistencies, our favorite crack ship, what Rupert being the ghost means for both the story and the enchantment and everything inbetween!

Oh, and we did A LOT of SoBHing.

If you have any theories, thoughts or questions, send them our way! We want to know all of them!

Reminder! This is our first episode, so bear with us as we fumble through editing and recording. We’ll get better as we go, swear on the Angel!

As a fellow Indian, I agree and hope Kamala doesn't get this treatment.

stop whitewashing cordelia.

actually i have been thinking about this since last night so i need to post. this is the latest official art that was commissioned and shared by CC. and cordelia does NOT look like a woman of colour.

Stop Whitewashing Cordelia.

THEIR SKIN TONES ARE LIKE BARELY ONE SHADE APART. i am SO mad that there are STILL whitewashed artworks being shared by CC. especially with cordelia, where there is a history of whitewashed artworks, as you can see.

Stop Whitewashing Cordelia.

now compare all these with these two art pieces and tell me they're all the same person.

Stop Whitewashing Cordelia.
Stop Whitewashing Cordelia.

let me illustrate further. in the cordelia and james art, at least a contrast can be seen between the colours of their skin. in the matthew and cordelia art, their skin tones look the same.

Stop Whitewashing Cordelia.

and i'm not much of an artist, but i do know with certainty that it's not because of the "lighting" or whatever.

cordelia is simply whitewashed in this art piece and we need to call it what it is. and this is not ok.

EDIT: please read my reblogs in the notes before commenting.
