Solange Knowles swoons over her adorable niece Blue Ivy.
On Wednesday, July 20, the proud aunt couldn’t help but show off Blue Ivy‘s stellar model skills in front of the camera, sharing two snaps featuring an all grown up baby Blue striking a variety of fierce poses in a ruffled pink ensemble.

“Gucci campaigns can’t even touch her with a pinky toe … ” Knowles wrote alongside the candid in addition to a long line of heart emojis.
While the daughter of music moguls Jay Z and Beyonce perfected her pose, in the second image, she proved she’s also got plenty of sweet sass to go along with her stance. “(Ps: She does her OWN photo edits/selections … as she should),” the 30-year-old creative captioned the photo, which shows the 4-year-old glancing at the lens over the top of her black shades.

Of course, Blue is just taking a page from her mother’s impressive fashion resume. In case you missed it, the fashion-forward family managed to stay on trend during a recent tropical vacation to Hawaii in June. While Queen B flaunted her flawless sleek physique in a tasteful floral swimsuit with a lemon crown and matching necklace, making an obvious reference to her controversial Lemonade album, the budding fashionista matched mama Carter’s vibrant hues in a cute, colorful cover-up.
The impromptu photo shoot was just another day in the life for Blue — the only child for Bey and Jay — whom in June joined her A-list parents at the CFDA Awards, where the “Formation” singer made a surprise appearance at the CFDA Fashion Awards, bringing her family to tears with an emotional speech, after accepting the CFDA Fashion Icon Award.
“As long as I can remember, fashion has always been a part of my life. It’s effect on me actually started before I was born,” she recalled. “Most of you guys don’t know this, but my grandmother was a seamstress. My grandparents did not have enough money, they could not afford my mother’s Catholic school tuition. So my grandmother sewed clothes for the priests and the nuns and made the uniform for the students in exchange for my mother’s education,” said Bey.
“When we were starting out in Destiny’s Child, high-end labels, they didn’t really want to dress four black country curvy girls,” Beyoncé continued. “And we couldn’t afford designer dresses and couture. My mother was rejected from every showroom in New York. But like my grandmother, she used her talent and her creativity to give her children their dreams.”
