Darla from The Little Rascals Has Grown Up and Is Beautiful Today

Darla from “The Little Rascals” was played by then-5-year-old Brittany Ashton Holmes. The chubby-cheeked, round-eyed youngster won fans over with her decisive attitude and kind heart. Her adorable outfits, including a sailor style dress and jumper-style dresses over blouses, also helped make the character.

At the 20th reunion, held in 2014, the grown cast members were dressed in outfits that would channel their childhood characters. For Holmes, that meant a jumper-style dress over a blouse with a yellow ribbon tied at the neck. Is it a look we’d rock nowadays? Probably not. But where we can pull a bit of inspiration is from Holmes’ radiant smile (and here are some simple tips for perfecting your selfie smile). She also has glass skin, the gorgeous complexion trend she was rocking before it was a thing. Though Holmes didn’t ultimately pursue acting and has opted to stay out of the limelight, it’s fun to see what Darla from “The Little Rascals” looked like 20 years down the road.
