Lady Kitty Spencer took to Instagram on Monday evening to share some heartwarming pictures of her two-year-old daughter, Athena, in an ultra festive, Christmas setting. The blonde model, who is Princess Diana's niece, shared lovely photographs that had a distinctly festive feel.
In one stylish shot, Kitty and her little girl had their backs to the camera, looking up at a decadently decorated Christmas tree that was covered in gold and had elaborate baubles. The pair cuddled up close as they gazed at the tree, and fans could see that little Athena was wearing a gorgeously festive coat by Amaia London. Known as the 'Razorbill Coat', it features a bold burgundy hue which nods to festive colours embraced at this time of year.

Back in 2019, the young royal, who was then aged four, was spotted wearing the bottle green structured style during the royal family's Christmas Day walkabout after their annual church service that year.
Why dressing your children 'royally' is so popular with shoppers
"The classic, charming vintage-style pieces the royal children dress in have inspired a change in children’s fashion," Kids Charlotte Kewley, otherwise known as The Little Stylist on Instagram, tells HELLO!.

Her outfits are always beautiful and avoid any obvious trends, but it's the thoughtful details that make her look - the neatly tied hair bow, velvet collars, patent Mary Janes, and the classic wool coat," she explains.
