This just in: Baby girl Alexis Olympia Ohanian continues to be one of the luckiest little girls in the world. Not only is her mom record-breaking tennis-champ Serena Williams and her dad Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, but we’ve just learned that she will also inherit all of the items in her mom’s fabulous closet one day too. That’s right, at the official launch of her L.A. pop-up clothing store for her line, The Serena Collection, Williams revealed that she’s stocking up on cute shoes and saving every pair in her closet just so her daughter can have them one day.

“We don’t make shoes yet in the collection but my whole shoe closet is for her and that’s why I buy so many,” Williams told PEOPLE magazine during the event. Williams and her 15-month-old daughter are often spotted together on the ‘gram in matching cute kicks and clothes, so it’s no surprise that the star is planning this far ahead and shopping with her baby girl in mind.
