Just Like Us: Samantha Harris’ Daughters Wear Hand Me Downs!
Samantha Harris
Samantha Harris may enjoy fashion and dressing up her little girls, Josselyn Sydney, 4, and Hillary Madison, 8 months, but she’s not one for designer duds.
“I would say the majority of [Josselyn's] wardrobe are hand-me-downs. My sister has a daughter who is 15-months older … and a really special thing is that we’re able to share clothes,” Harris told Baby Couture.
“Basically they share some of the most adorable outfits that we’ve had, and it’s a nice way to be able to share a special bond across the country that we wouldn’t normally be able to have.”
The former co-host of Dancing with the Stars and Entertainment Tonight correspondent buys her girls their clothes but doesn’t dress them.
“I used to pick them out on a daily basis and then she decided very quickly and early on that she wanted to have a say,” she says.
“So even though I would lay out two options, she would maybe say neither, and then go into her closet.”
Harris admits her daughter Josselyn likes to throw pieces of clothing together that might not look quite right but she likes to encourage her daughter to think for herself.
“Whether or not they’re as coordinated as I would like them to be, I have sort of taken a breath and allowed myself to let her be creative in her ensemble,” she daid.
“I do try to suggest matching colors, I try to get her to at least associate. She does understand the word ‘matching,’ she understood that probably at 2½.”
Do you let your kids put together their own outfits?
