It looks like Kim’s prophecy that North West will become a fashion designer is one step closer to becoming true. For her 34th birthday, Kanye surprised Kim with another painted Hermès bag she can add to her growing collection, which already includes one reworked by the artist George Condo, who did the cover of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Only this one was painted by none other than one-year-old North West. That’s right, while you and me got plain ol’ construction paper and finger paint to play with when we were 13-months-old, North West only gets the best when it comes to her canvases: purses that cost upwards of four figures.

“Kanye had a box, a purse, this Hermès purse, and I opened it and I thought it was so cool,” Kim told People, without one wince of irony. “It was all painted really cool and then there was my computer and it said, ‘Press Play.’ I pressed play and my daughter was sitting outside painting the purse. I thought it was an artist that painted the purse, some custom thing. I thought it was some new artist, and it was my daughter. It was amazing and I have it all on video.”

That is amazing. I guess fashion is just in your blood when your last name is West. As out there as it might seem, you’ve got to hand it to the First Family of Fashion for fostering that level of creativity so early on. My only questions: When can we get a capsule collection? Or at least see the bag?
