PIC: Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn Birkhead is the spitting image of her mother in iconic pink hat

Cape Town - Anna Nicole Smith's 12-year-old daughter attended her 10th Kentucky Derby, wearing a special accessory to pay tribute to her late mother.

Dannielynn Birkhead attended the 2019 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky alongside her father and Anna Nicole's ex, Larry Birkhead on Saturday.

"Dannielynn looks pretty in pink in her dress by Junona and her Mom’s hat from her unforgettable appearance at The Kentucky Derby in 2004," Larry wrote on Twitter alongside a photo of himself and Dannielynn.

According to E! News, Larry and Dannielynn have attended the Kentucky Derby together since 2010, always making sure to coordinate their outfits.

The weekend-long event holds a special place in the duo's hearts as Anna met Larry while filming her E! show at the Barnstable Brown Kentucky Derby Eve Gala in 2003 – four years before her death.

The tween's outfit choice for this year further proves she is the spitting image of her mom - who died of an accidental overdose in February 2007.
