How much do we love Jaden Smith? Let us count the ways. 

 

There are so many reasons the 17-year-old offspring of one of Hollywood’s biggest power couples — Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith — has stolen our style-loving hearts. In his short time on God’s green earth he started his own clothing line, fronted an ad campaign for Louis Vuitton and has cultivated a personal style that has quickly making him a style star to watch. 

Here are just a few reasons we all need to keep Jaden on our fashion radar. 

1. Because he was hands down the best-dressed male celebrity at the 2016 Met Gala. This Louis Vuitton look is dope. 

 

 

2. Because we can’t stop watching this GIF of him and his equally amazing sister Willow dancing and living their best lives at the Met Gala.

3. Because his gender-bending campaign for Louis Vuitton’s Spring 2016 womenwear colletction still makes us cheer.
