Starting their weekend off with some retail therapy, Willow and Jaden Smith were spotted out and about with friends in Southern California on Friday (June 22).
The "Fireball" singer made a fashionable trip to the Calabasas Commons as she rocked a long denim skirt, red jacket and cowboy boots while her older brother and his friends made a trip to Toys R Us in Canoga Park, CA.
In other news, it looks like Miss Willow is becoming quite the inspiration to her superstar mom Jada Pinkett Smith.
In a recent report put out by USA Today, the 11-year-old was so moved by the KONY 2012 video, which went viral in the spring, that she decided to do her part in helping human trafficking.
While talking to the publication, Jada said, "She did her own research and realized that there were young girls her age in this country being trafficked for sex," adding, "she was like, 'Mommy - you don't know what's happening!' I was like, 'Hold up, pause right there!' And, she was like, 'I've got to give my voice to this. These young girls out there need me.'"
After teaming together on this issue, the 40-year-old headed to Washington on Thursday (June 21) to visit the State Department where Hilary Clinton was releasing the 2012 Trafficking in Persons Report, which explains what our country is doing in the fight to prevent human trafficking.
As for now, this is just the beginning but Jada says that being aware is the first step, adding, "When you talk about modern-day slavery, you don't see chains. It's all about the mind... So, it's a very layered, complex issue that's going to take some time for us to figure out how to pull apart... Right now, we just have to get aware."
