Even Eloise understands: It’s an Alaïa!

Sofia Richie shared some fashion advice that kept her 7-month-old daughter Eloise entertained: a pair of expensive shoes.

The 26-year-old model posted a photo of her little girl playing with her studded white ballet flats by Alaïa, which retail for $1,290, to her Instagram Story on Thursday.

“Wear shoes that keep your child entertained ,” she captioned the post.

The smart footwear is decorated with brass rivets and is made of lambskin with a rubber sole.

Eloise was seen taking in the shiny details with her little fingers, while Richie and her husband, Elliot Grainge, lounged on a balcony overlooking a beautiful beach.

And the little tot can follow in her mum’s fashionable footsteps as Richie released her first collection of baby clothes – inspired by Eloise, of course – in collaboration with Amazon earlier this month.

The fashion designer and music producer welcomed Eloise, their first child together, in May.

“Eloise Samantha Grainge 5•20•24 best day of my life,” Richie wrote on Instagram at the time along with a black and white photo of the newborn’s feet.

The daughter of Lionel Richie initially kept her pregnancy news a secret to “protect (their) mental health and (their) space,” she told Vogue in January as she debuted her growing baby bump.

“Pregnancy is really scary,” she admitted at the time. “I didn’t realize there are so many milestones you have to reach and so many tests you have to take. For me it was really important to protect our mental health and our place as a couple.”

Sofia and the record executive married in a lavish wedding in France in April 2023, where guests included Paris Hilton, Cameron Diaz and other A-listers.

Grainge popped the question in April 2023 with a massive emerald cut diamond ring almost two years after going public with their relationship.

Earlier this month, Sofia’s bestie Jake Shane opened up about how the new mom has been dealing with becoming a parent.

“She’s just so in love with her daughter and she’s such a great mom,” the TikTok star exclusively told Page Six at the time.

The creator added that Eloise is “just perfect” and Sofia has managed to balance her social life and career with being a mother.

“She’s one of a kind,” Shane gushed about his close friend.
