In July, David and Victoria celebrated their daughter’s 12th birthday in the chicest way possible — with a trip to the Prada Caffè in Harrods department store in London.

“Harper Seven is 12!! (almost) @Prada party for Harper Seven💕CHIC!!, “ Victoria wrote on Instagram as she shared a series of snaps from the elegant party. The fashion designer tagged her husband David, and sons Romeo and Cruz Beckham, who also joined them.

David also posted several photos from the birthday bash as he celebrated his daughter turning 12. “@harrods Start of the birthday celebrations HarperSeven @prada,” he wrote one snap of the birthday girl. “My Birthday Girl” he captioned another photo of himself with the preteen.

In December, David took his daughter Harper to New York City, posing for photos at the Beam at Rockefeller Center, an attraction that lets guests recreate the iconic 1932 photo, “Lunch Atop a Skyscraper.”

Father and daughter also stopped for a bite at Katz Deli while taking in all the city has to offer. “Fun few days in NYC  #HarperSeven ❤️,” he captioned photos shared on Instagram.
