Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus
Ms. Valerie Frizzle (voiced by Lily Tomlin) is the eccentric teacher at the heart of the PBS animated series The Magic School Bus. Ms. Frizzle is loved by her students and known to often take them on incredible field trips with the help of the titular bus. Ms. Frizzle has frizzle ginger hair she wears in a messy bun and often dons boldly batterned dresses with matching shoes and accessories that tie in with her lesson plan. To create your costume, focus on bold funky prints that such as space or dinosaurs and pair them with thematic earrings and shoes. If you can’t find a collared dress, remember that you can layer a simpler dress over a blouse to achieve a similar look and that you can add pins or other accessories to simple shoes to make them look more appropriate. Complete your look with a wig and Liz Ard purse so you can take your trusty chameleon sidekick with you on your next field trip!

Lily Bloom from It Ends with Us
Blake Lively as Lily Bloom in the new film It Ends with Us has been a viral topic of discussion lately. The film is a romance drama, based off of the novel by Colleen Hoover. One of the topics of conversation is the wardrobe which is very bright, and features lots of colors and prints.
To dress like Lily Bloom, wear things like a wool plaid shirt jacket with jeans, a long denim coat with thrifted layers and blue jeans, paired with red heeled boots. Another is a yellow and blue look, featuring a yellow leather jacket layered over a yellow striped shirt and blue cropped tank top.
Winnie the Pooh
Winnie the Pooh (aka Pooh Bear or just Pooh) is a good-natured, though sometimes absentminded yellow bear. Based on the character of A.A.

Pip Fitz-Amobi from A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder
Pippa “Pip” Fitz-Amobi is the protagonist of the Netflix series, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder. The six episode series is based on the YA novel of the same name written by Holly Jackson. The story follows Pip as she investigates the murder of Andie Bell, which occurred five years prior in her hometown. Everyone believes Andie’s boyfriend, Sal Singh, was the culprit, as he confessed and took his own life shortly after. However, Pip believes Sal was innocent, and that the real killer is still out there. You may recognize her actress, Emma Myers, as Enid Sinclair from Wednesday.
Huckleberry Pie from Strawberry Shortcake
Huckleberry Pie is one of the only male characters from the Strawberry Shortcake franchise, appearing in numerous series. He is a fisherman and one of Strawberry Shortcake’s friends. He also has a puppy named Pupcake.
To dress like Huckleberry, wear a straw bucket hat and attach faux blueberries or huckleberries at the side (I’ve attached blueberries in this case as they’re brighter in color like the original design). Wear a purple sweater over blue overalls. Roll the legs of the overalls into cuffs, then take green and white striped fabric and cover it either by sewing or glueing, hiding the seams in the folded areas. You can also use this fabric to cut out a large square to tie as a bandana to wear around your neck, and if you’d like to take the costume even further, carry any stuffed dog and cover it ears and one paw in the striped fabric by glueing or sewing like patches.
