We doubt Reese Witherspoon [1]'s giving up her preppy style anytime soon — the polished actress looked as chic as ever in a blue gingham [2] off-the-shoulder top, jeans, neutral wedges, and a fedora when she stepped out in Santa Monica, CA. But just because Reese is sticking to her signature look [3], doesn't mean her daughter, Ava, is following in her footsteps.
The gorgeous 15-year-old [4] is really coming into her own, which she proved on her outing with Reese. While her mom stuck to tailored pieces, Ava gave off grungy vibes in a loose flannel, crop top, cuffed denim shorts, and patent leather oxfords that she slipped over black ankle socks.
While Reese and Ava both chose printed shirts, it seems that's where the similarities stop when it comes to their mother-daughter style [5]. That's fine with us — we'll just take inspiration from them both! Read on to choose the outfit that's more up your alley, then shop the essentials.
