With their fresh, dewy makeup, blue eyes, expressive smiles, and near identical side-parted locks falling in tumbling waves, the pair looked so similar.

Wonder where I get it from…"Me: mom come take a pic for Tiffany with me. Which necklace do you want to wear? Mom: All of them. Me: no. pick your favorite. Mom: ALL of them. Turn on The Makeup Light. …the woman wins. Every time. #LockWithLove @tiffanyandco."

Robyn has featured in Teen Witch, Chicago Hope, and most recently 9-1-1: Lone Star.
Meanwhile, Blake's brother Eric is known for his role in American Pie, while sister Lori's credits include TV shows like The Bold and the Beautiful and Two and a Half Men, and her director brother Jason has appeared in The Dukes of Hazzard.
Blake has previously discussed growing up in showbusiness, revealing she got the acting bug young because she was always on film sets.
She told Radio Free Entertainment: "I've grown up on sets. My mom is a manager and always has kids come in for coaching, my family's always going over lines for an audition, I'm always stealing craft service.
"So it was so much a part of my life that I never felt a desire for it. And it seemed like such a nightmare."
