I have secretly always wanted to be more like Ms. Frizzle. She had the coolest dresses, took her students on the best field trips, and didn't doubt her own awesome for a moment. The Magic School Bus books were amongst my absolute favorites as a kid (esp. Inside the Earth and Lost in the Solar System*. Geo and Astro have always been my most beloved subjects...), so it is only reasonable that Ms. Frizzle become a role model, right? Even if she was never intended to be a fashion diva.
So recently when I was scrolling though my options at Spoonflower, the print-your-own-fabric-design shop, I came across some spectacular options that are screaming to be made into Ms. Frizzle outfits. Skirts, dresses, or blouses? I'm not sure yet. I just hope my mediocre self-taught seamstress skills are able to keep up with this plan.

Now I just need to find a couple great dinosaur, insect, and robot options and my nerdy desires will be fulfilled!
*How did I never own In the Time of the Dinosaurs? What a shocking lack in my childhood!
OMG, this is the best idea! Ms Frizzle was a style maven in her own time. If you somehow magically end up with two dresses in Nebulae fabric, you know where to send one of them...
