It's just all tutu much! Sarah Michelle Gellar's daughter Charlotte looks glum as she's taken to ballet class

She's normally all smiles when she goes to her ballet class.

But Sarah Michelle Gellar's adorable four-year-old daughter Charlotte Prinze seemed a little glum as she walked across the car park hand-in-hand with her mother in Sherman Oaks, California, on Saturday.

The cutie looked like a little fairy in a gossamer light, pink dress and a grey top with long floaty sections of its asymmetric hemline trailing in the slight breeze.

The tot wore pink trainers and white socks with multi-coloured pattern.

Sarah, 36, had pulled the brunette tresses from the sides of her darling daughter's head back and twisted them into a messy bun, while Charlotte's fringe and the rest of her hair framed her face beautifully.

But the little girl kept her eyes firmly fixed on the ground.

The Buffy The Vampire Slayer star was dressed casually on the hot day in a white sleeveless T-shirt, an unbuttoned oatmeal cardigan, black exercise trousers and flat, black, lace-up shoes.

The actress slung a black handbag on a long strap across her body and carried her little girl's ballet bag over her shoulder.

The blonde's hair, which she had trimmed and highlighted last week, was unstyled and she hid her eyes behind gold-rimmed sunglasses.

At one point Sarah held up her smart phone and took snaps of the photographers.

Sarah's husband, Freddie Prinze, Jr. wasn't around - he may have been at home looking after their 18-month-old son Rocky.

The couple wed 11 years ago after meeting on the horror movie, I Know What You Did Last Summer, in 1997.

And they have escaped the curse of short-lived celebrity marriages, seemingly by keeping a low profile.

Sarah and Freddie are clearly still very much in love, it seems the first flushes of passion haven’t subsided yet either.

After a shirtless photo of Freddie was released by Lifetime to promote his appearance on Witches Of East End, Sarah couldn’t help but be a little smug.

‘He's a good looking man,’ she told E! at an event last month. ‘I'm not gonna complain!’

Sarah can currently be seen on the new CBS show, The Crazy Ones, opposite Robin Williams.

Created by David E. Kelley, the new primetime entry focuses on ad executive Sydney Roberts, played by Sarah, and her relationship with her unconventional father, played by Robin.

Freddie is set to provide a voice in animated TV series, Star Wars Rebels.
