The Australian model who won't let her daughter wear pink.

For those of you that missed it, our favourite Aussie supermodel Robyn Lawley welcomed her first child, Ripley, with partner Everest Schmidt on February 26 of this year.

Following the likes of Blake Lively and Kourtney Kardashian, 25-year-old Lawley has surprised no one by choosing a unisex name for her daughter.

But, when it comes to parenting styles, this model has certainly piqued our interest.

In an interview with Brands Exclusive magazine about her unique parenting style, the model explained: “I want gender neutral toys and clothes.”

We like this idea. A lot.

She added: “In all honesty, I think we separate the genders too greatly by the toys and hobbies.”

We hear you, Robyn. By dressing our daughters in pretty pink dresses and sparkly shoes we’ve been teaching our girls that appearance comes first. And it doesn’t.

Also, Ripley is a pretty great name. So well done there.
