Kendall Jenner turns 28 on Nov. 3, 2023, and though we've known the Kardashians star for most of her life at this point, her evolution is still pretty cool to watch.
She first hit screens when Keeping Up with the Kardashians premiered in 2007, weeks before her 12th birthday. And in the years since, she's grown into a confident model, ruling catwalks and campaigns with her killer smize.
As the second-youngest Kardashian-Jenner daughter marks another milestone, look back on some of her cutest throwback photos that prove she always had this modeling thing down.
