Remember the late Anna Nicole Smith's iconic Guess clothing campaign from the '90s?

Well, now daughter Dannielynn Birkhead is following in her mother's modeling footsteps as the latest Guess Kids star of the brand's 2013 spring advertisements.

The Guess kid's adorable images were shot in Malibu by Elliston Lutz, and Dannielynn couldn't look sweeter in the shots as she sports a denim skirt with white denim vest and clutches her straw fedora on the sandy beach.

Another black-and-white pic features the 6-year-old leaning against a large piece of plywood and gazing into the distance as her light brown hair flows in the wind.

"Dannielynn has the same playful spirit that her mother had on a set," says Paul Marciano, Guess' creative director. "She is a second-generation Guess girl, which makes this campaign a first for us."   

 

 

The spring 2013 Guess Kids campaign will appear in mid-January.

Anna Nicole Smith died in 2007 from a tragic drug overdose. Since her untimely death, Dannielynn has resided in the L.A. suburb of Burbank with her father, Larry Birkhead.
