Actress, model, and former Miss USA Ali Landry poses here with husband Alejandro Monteverde and her 16-month-old daughter Estela Innes for the Hollywood Christmas Celebration at The Grove. The fam helped kick off the holiday season, lighting the giant Christmas tree, singing yuletide carols, and building snowmen. OK, no snowmen in Los Angeles, but the spirit was there.
Estela was all dressed up in a pretty gold dress, a nice sweater coat, a bow...the whole nine yards. The husband? Not so much. But Ali just loves the classic style when it comes to dressing her baby.
"I'm a bargain shopper extraordinaire," says Ali. "We’re talking $20 for the shoes. For my baby I do not go cheap chic. I fly to Louisiana and buy all her clothes there, because I am very much classic, traditional for Estela. When we're out and about people are like, ‘Oh, it’s a baptism. Oh, it's a party.’ I'm like, ‘No, we dress her like this every day.’"
"I put her in bonnets till just a few weeks ago and she wears the shoes, little socks with the ruffles, a bow in her hair. She’s always completely dressed and very classic baby. I refuse to do trendy. Babies - in my opinion - should not be trendy. They’re a baby for a very short amount of time; they should look like a baby. Now she’s 16 months and she wears dresses; I never put her in a pair of pants ever."
Geez, that's a lot of pressure for a baby, always having to look pretty and everything. I hardly ever wear dresses any more, myself.
