FOR MISS POPULARITY
Her hobby is clicking her pink polished fingernails on her Swarovski-encrusted iPhone. (She should be in the Guinness Book of World Records for her speedy texting.) She’s never missed an episode of Gossip Girl. Duh. And though her drawers are bubbling over with makeup and jewelry, there’s always room for more.

(from top) Juicy Couture girl’s poker set ($148/Juicy Couture); Smashbox Wish for the Perfect Pout limited edition lip gloss set; Pout, Luster, and Radiant shown clockwise from top ($29/Uptown Makeup); Marc Jacob bangles in Tahiti Blue, Magenta, and Purple ($78 each/Saks Fifth Avenue)

FOR THE EXTREME TEEN
It takes him a while to get out of bed in the morning. But once he’s up, he’s all action. His uniform consists of his favorite hoodie and seriously colorful kicks. If you can’t find him perusing his favorite comic books, he’s probably playing Tony Hawk on his Xbox with his crew.

(from left) Krooked Complete skateboard ($89.99/Index Skateboard Supply), Munny Series 4 7-Inch Glow-in-the-Dark Edition do-it-yourself toy ($24.95/Kidrobot), L-R-G for G-Shock watch ($174.99/Index Skateboard Supply), Nike SB Dunk High Premium sneakers ($108/Index Skateboard Supply), Nanda Home “Clocky” alarm clock ($44/Nordstrom)

FOR THE PRINCESS
She’s sweet as pie, this one, but you can see the inner teen budding. Her bedroom is Barbie’s dream come true. She listens to her Hannah Montana CD on repeat—spend a day with her and you’ll know every word to “If We Were a Movie”—and thinks the best part of going to school is customizing her notebooks.

(from left) Fresh Sugar Rosé Lip Treatment ($22.50/Fresh), Sula Paint & Peel Nail Color in Modern Mauve ($9/Anthropologie), Yubz Talk Mobile hands free phone ($45/Marnie Rocks), Feeling Smitten Cupcake Bath Bombs ($5 to $10/Domain XCIV, Fort Worth), Swarovski Crystals by Vanessa Swarovski Roadster Bracelets ($36 each/KidBiz), ChicBuds with Swarovski crystals ($39/Dillard’s or chicbuds.com)

FOR THE ALL-STAR IN THE MAKING
He’s always on the go. Keep up and you’ll be burning serious calories. He follows every Dallas sports team and participates in a few of his own. He would whoop the competition with his fantasy football team if only his allowance was enough to join. He’ll settle down, though, for a little couch time in front of WALL-E.

(from left) Krooked Complete skateboard ($89.99/Index Skateboard Supply), Tokyo Bay “Tank” Robot Alarm Clocks ($54 each/DH Collection), Dallas Mavericks Draft Day Cap ($24.99/The Dallas Mavericks Ultimate Fan Shop), Dallas Mavericks Nowitzki Replica 2nd Road Alternate Jersey ($49.99/The Dallas Mavericks Ultimate Fan Shop), RockBuds earphones ($19.99/Nordstrom)

FOR THE LITTLE LOVER BOY
This one’s a love-bug. Sure, he’s interested in his squishy baseball (perhaps a Derek Jeter in the making), but what he really loves is snuggling up to his stuffed farm animals.

(clockwise from left) Charm Rockers “Fritz the Frog” rocker ($150/Merge), Trumpette cowboy socks ($26 for six pairs/KidBiz), Rowdy Sprouts “Woodstock” t-shirt ($40/Merge), Mullins Square Velour Tubbies longhorn towel ($42/KidBiz)

FOR THE HAUTE BABY
You can tell she’s going to have taste in the finer things. She’s already stomping around in her mini Uggs with pride. And notice how comfortable she looks in her baby Juicy Couture tracksuit?

(clockwise from top) Helena pink houndstooth dress ($110/KidBiz), Mullins Square Velour Tubbies flower towel ($42/KidBiz), Wee-Go glass baby bottle ($12/KidBiz), Robeez soft sole booties ($41/KidBiz)
