Blue Ivy has been dubbed her moms mini-me after netizens saw photos of her out and about in a denim look which also featured a scarf top. However, some feel the look is inappropriate for her age.
Bringing style to the streets of Beverly Hills, the 12-year-old daughter of music moguls Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Jay-Z Carter, looked beautiful in a blue denim look. Fans who saw the famous tween cannot stop gushing over how much she resembles her mother, who previously wore a similarly styled top to the one Blue was seen wearing.

The budding young performer accessorized with a gold necklace, gold earrings, trendy shades, and a chic mini blue purse. According to media outlets, Blue wore the outfit while she was spending time with her friends at Cipriani.

“Looking way older than her actual age..” added an X user. However, defending Blue Ivys choice of attire, an admirer praised, “Cute and [age-appropriate]. Love to see it.”

Not only does Blue Ivy resemble her iconic moms physical features, but, judging by a throwback photo of Beyoncé from her Destinys Child era, Blue is emulating her moms style as well.
Nostalgic photos from Destinys Childs performance in London in 2000 show a young Beyoncé Knowles-Carter wearing a scarf as a top, just like her daughter was recently seen doing.

Blue Ivys appearance at the Grammys is not her first association with the prestigious event. A few years ago, the young performer made history when she became the second-youngest individual to win a Grammy for her moms music video “Brown Skin Girl,” as Blue Ivy was given writing credit for the track.

Although Blue Ivy has already begun establishing herself as a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment industry, her loving parents havent pushed her into pursuing careers like their own.
In a past interview, doting dad Jay-Z clarified that what is important to him and Beyoncé when raising their children is ensuring they “provide a loving environment” and “be very attentive to who they want to be.”
Jay-Z said, “Its easy for us, as human beings, to want our children to do certain things, but we have no idea. Were just guides.”
The business mogul, who wants the best for his beloved children, was honored with the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at the Grammy Awards.
While holding his award and giving his acceptance speech, with his daughter standing next to him, the “Otis” artist joked, “I used to say this is a sippy cup for Blue, but Blues grown up now; she doesnt take sippy cups, and she has her own Grammys.”
