While a lot of us probably cringe at the thought of what we used to wear in middle school, Ava Phillippe [1] is truly embracing her 15-year-old self, rose-coloured hair colour and all. In an Instagram video this weekend, Phillippe shared a photo of herself in 2014 with marvelous pink hair and a pastel choker necklace. Phillippe then pulled the camera back to reveal her present-day self side-by-side with the photo, donning the same look she wore as a teenager — so cute.
"Dressed up as my 2014 self last night, proving that her essence is alive and well," the 20-year-old wrote, earning her a cute nickname from her mom Reese Witherspoon [2]: "pinky." Phillippe has been compared to her mom several times [3] in the past for their strikingly similar features [4] — they're practically twins [5] — but this look is all her, and we are absolutely loving it.
