Cartoon Style

The Secret Society of list Addicts listed their favorite shows when they were children, (I have always loved cartoons) racialicious also did a post on children's programming about the appearance of women of people of color etc and it got me thinking about some of my favorite cartoon characters who LOOK like me. So I have been playing around on polyvore forever ,but i never had a reason to post anything I made until now !

So I made 4 of these and here's the first one

Shana from Jem

I loved all the ladies of Jem even the bad ones, my mom taped episodes of the show for me, because I was too young to appreciate it when it came out. Shana doesn't look like me, look like me, like we are both black ,we both have big hair, and like bright colors, but she's like 5 shades browner then me. If I had a purple Afro I would rule the world, but, I do have a silver jacket in my closet RIGHT NOW.
