Mother and daughter matching outfits are big news this summer. That's why we couldn't resist pulling together a list of the best mini-me twinning outfits this season.
One of our fave celebrity mamas has been leading the charge: Stacey Solomon shared a family snap of her twinning in super-cute mummy-and-me matching floral dresses with her daughters Rose and Belle. They were pictured on holiday in the UAE recently and their adorable coordinated outfits have been flying off the shelves.
