True Tomboy Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Rocks the Combat Boots

By The Editors of StyleList Posted Sep 20th 2010 09:45AM

Angelina Jolie and daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt are finally having the last laugh on all those who talk trash about Shiloh's tomboy style. The towheaded trendsetter was spotted last week sporting one of fall's hottest looks: combat boots.

Wearing a gray polo shirt and shorts, a green Yo Gabba Gabba! Brobee backpack -- remember that dad Brad's a big fan -- and her chunky black boots loosely laced to reveal a hint of white sock, the on-trend tot stomped through LAX airport looking like she belonged on the runways at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

The four-year-old -- who was accompanied by mom Angelina Jolie, 35, and big sis Zahara, 5 -- has always marched to her own beat when it comes to attire.

Besides stocking her closet with neckties, polos, vests, and cargo shorts, she also made waves by wearing boys' swim trunks this summer.

"It's not my choice," Jolie, 35, said of Shiloh's wardrobe in August to Stylist Magazine.

"I have a very strong-willed four-year-old girl who tells me what she wants to wear and I let her be who she is," Jolie said. "I want her to do what's in her heart and what's in her heart is to dress like that. I think it's beautiful."

What have they done to this precious little girl?

I think she looks like a raggamuffin. I would never send my children out looking like that. Weirdo parents. Pray for the kids.

Allowed her to have an opinion

What have they done to this child......they have let her be who she WANTS to be, they have given her permission to be herself and they have taught her at a young age that she DOES have wings to FLY, something people like you were never given and taught, which is a shame for the human race as a whole!
Thank GOD for parents like this, they are helping to create a whole NEW world! I applaud them and think they are doing a GREAT job!

What's wrong with her clothes? I'm an adult now and I can count on one hand the number of times I dressed girly in my entire life. Get over yourselves and stop judging people's kids.

I THINK LITTLE SHILOH SHOULD SPEND SOME TIME WITH BRAD'S FAMILY. I KNOW GRANDMA PITT WOULD LOVE IT TREAT HER LIKE A LITTLE PRINCESS & SHILOH WOULD EAT IT UP. SHILOH NEEDS A LITTLE NORMAL FAMILY TIME. I THINK HER MOM HAS ISSUES SHE HASN'T DEALT WITH & BEHIND ALL THE GOOD DEEDS & SMILES IS A DARK SIDE. I HOPE I AM WRONG.

By NYCGAL328

MORON SHE DOES SPEND ALOT OF TIME WITH HIS FAMILY, YOU CANNOT FORCE ANY CHILD TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT CAUSING HARM TO THEM. SHILOH MIGHT JUST GROW OUT OF THAT PHASE OF DRESSING THAT WAY. AND MIGHT BE A GIRLY GIRL WHEN SHE GROWS UP.
I DID THE SAME THING, AND I'M STRAIGHT. SO STOP BEING SO CRITICAL AND JUDGEMENTAL OF THIS CHILD! ONLY LOSER'S DO THOSE AWFUL THINGS.

My God daughter dressed and played as a boy throughout her childhood and her mom allowed her without making an issue of it. Today she is 19 and a stunning, very girlie, beauty.

By Upton Family

She's four. Why let her decide how she looks. They have lost control at four. Oh my, what is she ging to be like when sh's 14? God help them.

By Hunnybun

Angelina says it not her choice what here daughter wears? Are you kidding me? You are the parent right? You do too have a choice in what your children wear!!

My daughter climbed 40 foot trees at four, and the first time she saw snakes at seven years old, (she lived in Alaska) she grabbed the biggest behind the head and chased her brothers with it. She's done a hundred calendar shoots since a teen and has a couple business degrees now. She's a GIRL! Just one who's fearless and goes off a cliff on a snowboard, trains animals and shows up at the finest restaurants in limos looking awesome. No conflicts there.

I've lived in Alaska most of my life. And, I'm a grandmother. There are no snakes there. Sorry, but wrong state for snakes.

yeah right... ha ha you're an idiot

Speaking from as a mother of an 18 year old tomboy....She has a boyfriend, Captain of her High school Volleyball team, great grades and when she does dress "girly" she's a knockout!! Let Shiloh be herself!!

By millie.lencioni

Kids should be allowed to have a choice in their clothing, but Angelina is wrong to say she has no control. Her daughter is only 4, still using a pacifier and carrying her blankie, and she wants to make all decisions. When she is 14 and wants to experiment with drugs, will this also be her choice? Parents need to act more like parents, kids have a lifetime ahead of them to show individual style.

By Sam

The "pacifier and blanket" kid is Tom Cruise's daughter Suri.
If you're deranged enough to hate a four year old girl you've never even met, at least know who she is.

By Christina

I am STUNNED by the number of people insisting that Angelina (but never Brad, for some reason) is supposed to dictate what her children wear. I have never done that with either of my children (a boy and a girl), except that sometimes - VERY rarely - my son has to be told that sweatpants are not acceptable for the occasion. Otherwise, who gives a flying fig what anyone wears? Except for judgmental, small-minded people, of course.

By mjbc

I understand the tomboy. I just don't understand why they let her wear boy swimming trunks, instead of a one piece girl swimsuit. Where do you draw the line?
