Kids’ fashion is taking a cue from the grown-ups, creating mini-me versions for the little ones. Be extra careful when trying this trend on your child though, as there is a thin line between looking like a cute little lady and looking dauntingly old. Choose pieces with youthful details or prints in classic shapes and cuts. Always keep it simple.

Let your child channel her inner warrior or gypsy princess in graphic tribal prints and flowy bohemian pieces. Select clothing with colorful prints to keep the look fresh and young. Braids and flower crowns (for the boho look) will definitely complete the style.

The sporty look is a big trend for little girls -- after all, they need comfortable clothes for play. Your child can go sporty from head to toe or you could let her wear one sporty item combined with non-athletic pieces (like a varsity jacket over a floral dress) for a chic look!
