Kaia Gerber, 17, is off-duty casual in NYC... after starring in Alexander Wang's prestigious fashion show

Supermodels... they're just like us. 

Kaia Gerber, 17, proved it when she was spotted on a casual stroll in New York City on Tuesday in a pair of straight-leg trousers, bright-white Converse high-top trainers and a navy cardigan sans shirt underneath.

She had her auburn locks tied into a relaxed bun and carried a satchel of items from CVS Pharmacy in her hand.

Kaia's rise to fashion fame can be partially credited to supermodel mum Cindy Crawford, 53.

Following in her mother's footsteps, Gerber's star is shining bright. 

So far, she's brightened campaigns for a handful of high fashion names including Jimmy Choo, Marc Jacobs, Stella McCartney and Karl Lagerfeld.

She also recently took the stage for the Alexander Wang show, another prestigious role to add to her many.

Stay stylish like Kaia Gerber in a Brand Melville cardigan

You may not associate a cardigan with summer, but thanks to the likes of Kendall Jenner it’s now become a trend to wear one as a top instead.

Kaia Gerber has now jumped on the trend as we spotted her teaming straight-leg blue pants with the ‘Shannon’ sweater by Brandy Melville and Converse sneakers to complete the look.

The model can pull any trend off, that’s a given, but this is one look we can all easily copy too, Or why not style such a cardi over a floral midi dress? It’ll equally look as stylish.

Kaia’s cropped sweater is available to buy in black so click (right) to get it for yourself. But don’t let that stop you from copying Kaia’s look, just shop the replicas we’ve spotted at H&M, Urban Outfitters and Sottomettimi.

In 2018, Gerber was named Model of the Year at the Fashion Awards, a UK-based ceremony also known as the British Fashion Awards.

Crawford launched her career when she was Gerber's age now after she placed runner-up in a contest held by Elite Model Management, who later came to represent her.

The icon would come to evolve into one of the biggest supermodels on the planet, landing covers for Vogue, Cosmopolitan, ELLE, Vanity Fair, and many more.

In 1991, Crawford wed actor Richard Gere, 56, but they split in 1995. Afterward, she married current husband Rande Gerber in 1998.

Crawford and Gerber are parents to son Presley, 19, and Kaia, who both share the same career as models.

Like mother like daughter: Gerber has only the best to learn from as mum Crawford, 53, was one of the world's most sought-after supermodels in the 1990s
