The Scoop
Suri Cruise continues to rewrite the book on toddler fashion.

The 3-year-old daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes was spotted in Boston last fall wearing high heels, and recently, lipstick. Now, she’s toting around another grown-up accessory — an $850 Salvatore Ferragamo“Sofia” handbag, as identified by Us Weekly.

The family was in Jamaica when a photographer spotted Suri’s Sofia, which is a miniature version of the same bag Holmes was also carrying, the $1,850 Sofia purse.

Holmes hasn’t spoken out about Suri’s pricey accessory, but in the past she defended Suri’s footwear, saying, “She, like every little girl — she loves my high heels,” and that they are “ballroom dancing shoes for kids.”
