Gisele Bundchen is one of those blessed women who looks good in anything. Whether she's in shorts and a t-shirt, sexy Victoria's Secret lingerie, or a toilet seat cover for God's sake, the woman owns it. But what she stepped out in the other day will blown your mind. In a good way.
The model mom took adorable 2-year-old Benjamin to the park ... and they dressed alike. We're not talking, like, full-blown matchy-matchy outfits here, but coordinated get-ups. And it is pretty much the cutest thing you're going to see all day.
Check out the photos here. Cute, no? They've both got on earth tones and tribal prints. Very chic. Now, let me just say, I've never been one for coordinating outfits. I hated it when my mother dressed my sister and me alike when we were growing up; I hated it in grade school when girlfriends of mine wanted to "match"; and I really hate it when couples go all twinsies on everyone. It's sick. But for whatever reason, I don't hate it when parents dress similar -- not identical -- to their children.
There's something sweet about it. Perhaps because it's glaringly obvious that one member of the party had nothing to do with it whatsoever. I think it's cute to see moms and sons wearing a similar color -- or even cuter, dads and daughters (bonus points if that color is black!).
I think the key to it, though, is dressing the child like the parent -- and not the other way around. Bright pink polka dot-type shirts are not an attractive look on grown women. But on the contrary, a pair of skinny jeans and sandals are to-die-for cute on a toddler. There's a whole science to it. A science that Gisele and Benjamin have clearly mastered.
Do you like it when parents and kids dress alike?
