I’ve never been big on “twinning” with anyone; in high school I always wore vintage dresses to date dances to avoid an awkward encounter of having on the exact same dress as someone else, and as an adult, have been shopping at an eclectic mix of brands and retailers to continue to dodge being compared to anyone else. I do, however, think it is absolutely ADORABLE to match the little ones; those little daughter/niece/goddaughter pairings of wearing identical items never gets old.
Nene Shoes is a brand that focuses on the “mini me” factor with styles that resonate with moms and daughters alike, and us aunts that take our roles very seriously can get in on the stylish fun too! My best friend Emily and her daughter Lily are now coordinated in their footwear (see above), and “Auntie J” had to of course also join in on the action (see below). The curated selections are stylish and practical for both girls and their busy adult components, and affordably priced since at least one pair of feet tend to grow very, very quickly. Matching shoes elevate any event to a special occasion, and this is one “twinning” exception I’ll gladly make!
