Monica & Laiyah Twin On Instagram In Balenciaga
The “So Gone” singer’s pictures were snapped in New Orleans. While there, she and her daughter wore matching fits from Balenciaga and Jennifer Le. Monica turned heads in a stunning black-and-white graffiti blazer dress. She paired it with sleek black tights and knee-high boots. The blazer featured bold, artistic lettering, adding an edgy, urban flair to her polished ensemble. Monica styled her hair in soft, voluminous curls with a retro-inspired side bang and headband that perfectly framed her face. Monica’s makeup was on point, with a smoky eye and a neutral lip, balancing boldness with elegance. To elevate the outfit further, she donned a dramatic, two-toned oversized fur coat that exuded “it girl.” Embracing her status as Monica’s mini-me, Laiyah wore a chic black faux-leather knee-length dress with a belted waist. She paired her dress with the same statement black-and-white faux fur coat as her mom and carried a matching Balenciaga purse. For her hair, Laiyah kept it sleek and stylish with waist-length braids featuring intricate cornrow details along the hairline. Monica captioned the post, “Teaching Our Daughter That She’s Really H•E•R,” and fans couldn’t get enough. “Like mother, like daughter 🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️,” one fan wrote. Another fan joked, “🔥 straight 🔥, but I NEED her to slow down.. us internet aunties can’t take it. 🥰😍.” RELATED: Monica Dishes On Balancing Motherhood And Career
Monica Doesn’t Play About Her Children – The Atlanta Singer Is A Mother First
Fans of Monica know she is not only an R&B legend, entrepreneur, and fashion icon, but she is also a mother who doesn’t play about her children. She is a mother to four beautiful children: Laiyah and her brothers Rodney Hill III, Romelo Hill, and Ramone Hill. As the May 2024 cover star of HelloBeautiful, she opened up about motherhood. She specifically mentioned how important instilling confidence in her daughter Laiyah is. “One of the things I try to consistently instill is her confidence, her belief in herself, her understanding that she is great just as she is inside and out,“ Monica said about Laiyah. “I push her towards her goals and her dreams. I’m not directing her or redirecting her away from what her goals and dreams are. We’re pushing her towards it because I think she has the right support system to be a part of whatever she wants to be a part of.“ She continued, “But I love the joy of having a daughter. I love the fun of us being able to talk about some of the female things.” Monica’s recent twinning moment with Laiyah is everything!
