Super-stylish North is yet to turn two, but she's already a regular on the FROW at top designer catwalk shows with mum Kim Kardashian and rapper dad Kanye. With a reputation to keep up it's little wonder that the cutie- who has her own personal chef to prepare her organic diet- has her own walk-in wardrobe at her £13 million mansion. She's frequently pictured sporting fur coats, leather-look leggings, and black lace, and her half-carat diamond stud earrings are reportedly worth over £30,000. Other items in her closet include a £250 silk Oscar de la Renta dress, a £130 leopard viscose frock from Roberto Cavalli, an Alexander Wang leather dress, and Giuseppe Zanotti custom-made shoes. For her first birthday North was treated to a 'Kidchella' festival themed party, complete with fairground rides and a bouncy castle.11 of 20

She may only be three, but as the offspring of music royalty, Blue Ivy Carter's lavish lifestyle is enough to make us cry. Think £10,000 Swarovski-studded high chairs, a £400,000 solid gold rocking horse and a £20,000 magical windmill playhouse according to reports. Mega famous power-couple Jay-Z and Beyonce's tot already has a jewellery collection that we could only dream of too- with her charm bracelets, rattles and dummies provided by Tiffany & Co. For her second birthday, Blue's doting parents splashed the cash, hiring out a zoo for a jungle-themed bash featuring tigers, monkeys and snakes, and she's frequently pictured on luxury yacht holidays. It's a hard life for this little cutie.12 of 20

Suri's ninth birthday recently was a 'low-key' cupcake themed bash, but don't be fooled. Before THAT bitter divorce, parents Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes reportedly spent £66,000 on her second birthday- splurging on fresh flowers and 1,000 real butterflies.When her parents split in 2012, her father bought her a mansion in Manhattan, and Daddy Cruise spent a cool £5 million on a private jet for his youngest daughter to ferry her between parents. Pocket change really, considering the actor is rumoured to be worth over £300 million.13 of 20

Arguably one of the most influential figures in the music industry, Simon Cowell- who is worth over £300 million- seems to have become a new man since the birth of son, Eric. Within weeks of being born, Eric was whisked off on a private jet for his first holiday, and since then he's regularly been snapped chilling on super yachts or at the beach with mum Lauren Silverman. He also had over 100 guests attend his first birthday bash earlier this year, and is reportedly being lined up to feature in the next One Direction video. So long as he avoids papa Cowell's questionable high-waisted trousers and white tee combo, he'll be winning in life.14 of 20

In the last year alone, Prince George, who turns two in July, amassed almost 800 presents from wellwishers- more than any other member of the Royal Family.

The tot has also already travelled the world first class, and even has a baby BMX bike.15 of 20

If being gorgeous Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children isn't enough, these kids have a seriously cool life given their parents multi-million dollar fortune. But while the six-strong brood- adopted Maddox, 13, from Cambodia, Pax, 11, from Vietnam, Zahara, 10, from Ethiopia, and biological kids Shiloh, 8, and six year old twins Knox and Vivienne, travel the world and count a £35million, 35-bed French chateau with pool, lake and vineyard as one of their homes, their mum Ange insists they appreciate it because of the humanitarian work she does.

The family reportedly have six full-time nannies- one for each child.16 of 20

Baby Sophia Ecclestone may be too young to know what's going on, but that didn't stop super-rich mama Tamara splurging on her first birthday, earlier this year, paying out an estimated £70,000 on a farmyard themed bash.

Jennifer Lopez's seven-year-old twins Max and Emme definitely landed on their feet having J-Lo as their mum. From the moment they were born, the pair had an entire wing of J. Lo and Marc Anthony's house to themselves, as well as 600-thread-count Egyptian cotton crib linens, diamond-encrusted rattles, and a Shetland pony each apparently. Even as babies, they both had toy jeeps- who knows what they'll get for their sweet 16th?20 of 20
