“Mommy and me” is one of those terms we never used before we had kids. Yet here we are with little mini-me’s who want everything that we have (and wear, and use, and eat). While full-on mama & mini outfits are reserved for holiday portraits (hello family jammies), you can still twin in less obvious ways.

The littles are so proud when they’re wearing something that mama has, be it matching manicures , earrings or shoes. They want to wear our makeup and even our hair accessories. Heck, our minis even want to do our yoga workouts—something we really can’t complain about—especially if we’re doing it with matching Chi yoga mats while doing a mommy and me yoga workout (we love Donna Scro Samori’s family yoga sesh created for MYX Fitness ).

Let’s take in all the love while we can, because these littles won’t want to be our twins forever. You can wear all of the matching outfits below when you’re in a matchy-matchy mood—and even when you’re not.
