For Ellie's next look she targeted this hot pink, Hello Kitty T Shirt like a heat seeking missile. Like many girls her age, she is crazy about Hello Kitty. She paired it up with this soft denim prairie skirt and a crisp, white pair of Polo by Ralph Lauren athletic shoes. Most people would automatically pair a prairie shirt up with a bohemian inspired top, but going with a more graphic, unexpected top gives lends this outfit tons of personality.
