On a special mom-and-daughter day out at The Shoppes, the duo uncover kids-friendly treasures from children’s skincare, dining options and dedicated childrenswear sections within luxury duplex boutiques
There are kids who look like their parents, and then there’s Rachel Wee and her daughter Ellery Chen who have an almost uncanny resemblance to one another. Truly her mom’s mini me, Ellery bears the same large doe-eyes, enviably plump pout and the sweetest cheeks—but most of all, under that adorable exterior lies a feisty personality that both of them share too.
Known as the “brave one” when it comes to her own siblings, Rachel may be younger than her jie jie Cheryl, but she has always stepped up to the plate be it an adventure or a school bully, and Ellery certainly takes this spirit from her. “She loves the camera and is very excited about the shoot”, exclaimed Rachel when we were making arrangements for this big filming day.
Sure enough, the little girl arrived to The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands with a skip in her step, clad in a striking tiger printed Kenzo shirt and ball skirt combination that, of course, perfectly matched mummy’s black and gold ensemble in the exact same silhouette—adorned with a Chanel pearl necklace, no less.
