Street Style Stars Are Getting Upstaged By These Two 6-Year-Olds
Style stars are getting younger and younger
It's no secret that having a kid comes with a lot of life changes, but one definite bonus is getting to dress your kids however you want. And since recent trends in children's clothes have reflected the same high fashion of adult brands, it's never been easier for kids to sport the latest styles. When I walk into stores like Zara or H&M, and I see the kids' clothing section, I'm almost jealous of some of the pieces hanging on the racks. (Lucky for me, I'm a pretty petite woman and can fit in some of these styles—hello, cheaper price points!)
So it should really be no surprise at all that some of the hottest street style stars right now are kids as young as six years old. Just like their contemporaries North West and Blue Ivy Carter, these kids are always dressed to the nines and have become a topic of conversation in the fashion industry and on social media. Recently, I got the chance to chat with two of the newest street style stars about their favorite fashion moments. Read on and get some inspiration for your next outfit.
