There's no mistaking where she gets her fashion sense from – even if a mini dress, high heels and flaming red lipstick are not every mother’s idea of what their 14-year-old should wear.

But then Lourdes Leon is no ordinary teenager and Madonna is certainly no ordinary mother.

The singer was happy to let her daughter take the spotlight and the hosting duties as they celebrated the first birthday of their Material Girl clothing line at Macy’s department store in New York.

Looking far older than her years – and remarkably like her mother – Lourdes, nicknamed Lola, attended the party and fashion show
with Kelly Osbourne, daughter of rocker Ozzy Osbourne.

She took over as the label’s ‘muse’ after Gossip Girl actress Taylor Momsen was sacked for comparing its style to that of a ‘highclass hooker’.

Lourdes, 14, was dressed in a yellow and white mini dress with red lipstick and her long, black hair hanging loose.

While Kelly was wearing a fitted black miniskirt that accentuated her curves, a black and white printed blouse, a leather jacket and black platform pumps

The pair walked a flirty pink runway with Lourdes in front of a crowd of admirers fans.

Although Madonna, 53, left the hosting duties to Kelly and Lourdes.

Kelly was featured in a series of glossy ads shot in Manhattan's East Village neighbourhood.
In a joint interview with co-designer Lourdes several months ago, Kelly confidently talked up the range pointing out their favourites.
'The military jacket. I love that and I put it with a bunch of badges on it to make it my own, too.

'When it comes to clothes for warmer weather, it’s shorts for spring that are all the rage for the girls. “I’m like obsessed with them,” said Lourdes.

While Osbourne pointed out the accessories. 'The shoes - there’s a pair of nude heels that I’m really obsessed with.

'There’s so much stuff in it that’s so me and what I wear. There’s a leopard dress that I get to wear next that I’m excited about. I love prints,' she told People Magazine.
The pair also mentioned the affordability of the brand.
'There’s not many other companies besides Material Girl that do clothes at an affordable price that are high fashion and [are] what people see in the magazines and can emulate themselves without having to go and spend $1000 on a dress, she said.
Kelly has also admitted to taking 'so much of my style from Madonna in the Eighties'.
But will have to be very careful about what she says as the clothes and the ad campaigns are aimed at teenagers.
