Wrong on so many levels!

Anyone seen the pictures?

linky please, posh!

Agree, it's ludicrous. Dressing up is one thing, but she's being paraded around like a little model - bit odd imo.

Northernlurker · 24/11/2009 21:23

It's also wrong to mispell the poor child's name. Her father is Tom CRUISE and her mother is Katie whatshername not Penelope CRUZ - Tom's ex girlfriend.

Rehgarding the shoes - was it not a dressing up thing that she likes to wear a lot? My dd's are very fond of their snow white shoes with the heels. I wouldn't let them wear them out and about but that's just me.

OMG!
So wrong, but not suprising.
She'll be doing her first Hello exclusive interview soon..."So Suri, that outfit you wore to your first day at pre-school was just divine!" Blah, blah, blah......

duckbilledplatypus · 24/11/2009 21:24

anyone got a link to the pics? these I've got to see - how ludicrous!

bellissima · 24/11/2009 21:28

YANBU. heels ugh at that age unless you really are just trying on mummy's shoes at home.

But am I being unreasonable to think that a certain newspaper takes a rather creepy interest in her? Just how many shots of one toddler do its journalists like to pore over every day?

I haven't seen the pictures.

DD1 (aged 4.5) has some princess heeled shoes (50p in charity shop) which she wore to the shops the other day. DD1 (aged 2.1)wore some tap shoes which have a bit of heel. TBH I tried to change their minds but they were both adamant so I thought who cares, it doesn't do anyone any harm, only my suburban sensibilities. I had wellies for both in the buggy as it was obviously going to rain soon.

I haven't seen the pictures of Suri but perhaps her parents decided just to let her enjoy her childhood. (Right, like TC is going to be all cool and relaxed and not care or want to control what the papers say.)

canihaveapeeinpeacepleasebob · 24/11/2009 21:28

Also wrong is the fact that every picture I've seen of the poor child recently, she hasn't had a coat on. When every one else in the picture is wrapped up warm against the cold.

StealthPolarBear · 24/11/2009 21:28

get with it, there was a thread on this weeks ago!!
I can understand the dressing up thing, and am very much in the "anything for an easy life" school of thought, but I would put my (flat heeled) foot down at allowing a 3yo to walk for quite a distance in such high heels - surely a broken ankle is only a matter of time?
I think anyway, ask me in a couple of years, I have a 2yo DS and a 10wo DD

Divatheshopaholic · 24/11/2009 21:29

its all over DM for the last a few months, it looks like the same shoes to me, silvery dressing up shoe type.
YABU, its te paparazzi, pastering little gilrs picture everwhere.
dd 4.5 wears wedge heel shoes. i actually saw cute silver one in monsoon other day.

JesusChristOtterStar · 24/11/2009 21:30

she appears dreadfully spoiled

Cadmum · 24/11/2009 21:31

Photos here: justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2234402/suri-cruise-high-heels-03/

The best part is that her mum is wearing flats...

Tidey · 24/11/2009 21:32

Her mum is forced to, so Tom looks less tiny.

Cadmum · 24/11/2009 21:34

Ah yes! Of course.

CitizenPrecious · 24/11/2009 21:35

ewwww!

the poor little mite.

A tenner says that by the time she's 15 she'll be wearing 16 hole steel toed docs and be covered with tats- as a reaction to being treated like an ickle pwetty dolly during her formative years...

Northernlurker · 24/11/2009 21:48

no high heels here Wellies and no coat - she looks like a strong willed child and they're just letting her find her own way to me. I let dd3 wear wellies to nursery over the summer if she wanted. I could fight them off her - but they fit and she likes them so what's the nig deal?

JjandtheBean · 24/11/2009 21:55

YANBU.

personally i dont like it

BUT

my two year old wore crocs out tod, hes very strong willed and i like him to have opinions of his own, by the walk down the drive he announced cold toes and the boots were on! live and learn!

2shoes · 24/11/2009 21:58

yanbu

JesusChristOtterStar · 24/11/2009 21:58

wellies rock

Divatheshopaholic · 24/11/2009 22:11

i agree she never wears coat while parents are both clothed to coats and jumpers, they seem to carry blanket around.

Vivia · 24/11/2009 22:14

Yesterday there was a photo in the Daily Mail of Suri actually falling off her heeled shoes outdoors onto a wet pavement. This isn't dressing-up, it's thoroughly wrong.

MoChan · 24/11/2009 22:15

I can't imagine what it must be like to be that age and have people following and taking photos, everywhere you go. What a nightmare.

dooneygirl · 24/11/2009 22:16

I'm not keen on the heels thing, but that child NEVER has a coat on in winter. That bothers me more.

sassy · 24/11/2009 22:18

Won't last, she'll be taller than her dad soon and he won't allow heels then.
