This Three-Year Old (Yes, Three) Fashionista Is Killing the #OOTD Game
Watch out, North West — there’s a new stylish tot in town. She roams around NYC in a purple puffer, has dinosaur leggings, and was snapped front row at Mansur Gavriel rocking a chicken hat. If you’re not already following Eva Chen (AKA Instagram’s trend-setting head of fashion partnerships) on social, then may we suggest doing so STAT for a glimpse of her über fashion-forward three-year old, Ren. Alright, alright… Chen gets some props for doing the actual styling per se, but you get our drift. Scroll through for 14 of the toddler stylist in training’s most slay-worthy (and shoppable) looks to date. more
“Is this how this thing works?” There’s no shortage of rainy day whimsy to be found here — that’s fo’sure.
1. Rainy Day Shenanigans: You’re just a hop, skip, and jump away from staying dry. Zoobrella’s line of playful umbrellas (peep the 3D monkey ears) will 100 percent put a smile on your little one’s face. Brit + Co Pick: Skip Hop Zoobrella Little Kid Umbrella ($15)
At just three-years-young, this cutie was the talk of #NYFW with her fresh take on mixed prints. As for the pièce de résistance? It was her chuckle-worthy chicken hat that nobody — we mean, nobody — saw coming. (Photo via @gastrochic for @nytimesfashion)
2. FROW-Ready: Dabble in a little print-on-print action with some comfy-chic leopard print leggings and a pair of EMU Australia’s celestial-inspired suede boots. Ren’s sippy cup not included.

So. Much. ‘Tude. Gah, we can’t handle it.
