Jasmine is a character in Cartoon Network’s Total Drama Island spin-off titled Total Drama: Pahkitew Island. She’s a member of the Pimapotew Kinosewak, which translates to “floating salmon” in Cree. Jasmine was raised in the Australian Outback, which resulted in expert survival skills. She is a natural leader: quick to take charge and commandeering. Under her tough exterior, she has a big heart, and is kind to anyone who shows her respect. Jasmine makes it to the final four, although Shawn, her boyfriend, wins the season. Together they equally split the prize money.

Lucy Ricardo is the main character in the classic 50s sitcom, I Love Lucy. Portrayed by the legendary Lucille Ball, she resides in the upper east side of Manhattan with her husband, Ricky. Despite the societal expectation to remain dutiful and domestic, she longs for a career in show business. As a result, she concocts hilarious schemes to swindle the spotlight. Many of these plots include physical comedy and exaggerated dramatics, such as the iconic candy factory scene. It’s no wonder Wanda put herself in Lucy’s shoes in Westview.

The newest resident of Sesame Street is the 7-year old girl named Ji-Young. As a Korean-American, Ji-Young makes history as the first muppet of Asian descent on the long-running PBS children’s show. She makes her debut November 25 on “See Us Coming Together: A Sesame Street Special”.

Bridgette (voiced by Kristine Fairlie) is a contestant on Cartoon Network’s Total Drama Island and subsequent spinoffs.  Bridgette is part of team Killer Bass with fellow contestants DJ, Courtney, Duncan, Geoff, and others.  Bridgette loves animals and the water, but is known for being rather clumsy on land.  To recreate Bridgette’s look, you’ll need brown sandals, a mint-colored hoodie, bermuda shorts, and a low blonde ponytail.

Sophie Foster returns in Shannon Messenger’s fifth entry into the Keeper of the Lost Cities series.  In Lodestar, Sophie finds herself fighting against dark forces as she questions whether she can trust the people around her.  As always, Sophie is shown on the cover wearing dark tights and with a short Renaissance-inspired dress and cloak.  To recreate her look, you may have to be a little flexible, as finding an exact replica of her costume can be difficult.  Focus on similar silhouettes such as a pinafore dress that will mimic the fitted bodice of the one she’s depicted wearing, or a handkerchief hem if you’re more interested in replicating the movement of her skirt.

Ophelia Ramírez (voiced by Candi Milo) is Juniper Lee’s best friend on the Cartoon Network show The Life and Times of Juniper Lee.  Ophelia is known for her slightly cynical outlook and her rather glum, deadpan personality.  You might have to get a little creative to recreate Ophelia’s unique pink and purple hairstyle, so don’t be afraid to take a pair of scissors and some gel to a wig to make it fit your needs.

Dana (played by Imani Hakim) is one of the game testers for the Mythic Quest video game in the Apple TV+ series of the same name.  Dana’s fellow game tester Rachel has a crush on her and the two eventually end up dating.  Dana’s job consists of a lot of time on a couch,  playing video games, and so she dresses for comfort.  Her hair is worn in long braids and a pair of colorful, oversized headphones will complete the look.
