Teenage dream: Alec Baldwin's daughter Ireland, 16, looks even MORE like famous mother Kim Basinger with her long legs and mane of tousled blonde hair

The statuesque daughter of 30 Rock actor Alec and Kim Basinger cut a striking figure as she took a stroll through New York City earlier today.
The teenager wore her tousled hair over one shoulder, reminiscent of her actress mother Kim in her younger days.

White frilly shorts, a baggy navy blue v-necked top and flip flops completed the look as she headed out for lunch with a male friend.
Last week, she was spotted out with father Alec, 54, not long after his altercation with a New York Daily News photographer outside a court room.
A photograph of the fracas was splashed all over the U.S. newspaper, but Alec told The Charlie Rose Show earlier in the week that he was a victim.

'The guy lunged and almost hit me in the teeth with the lens of the camera,' said the actor, who is engaged to yoga instructor Hilaria Thomas. 'So I just pushed the guy away.'
Alec's relationship with his only daughter has come a long way since he left an infamous voicemail for her back in 2007, referring to her as a 'rude, thoughtless little pig.'
Ireland was the subject of a long drawn-out custody battle after the split between her famous parents, with their divorce finalised in 2002.

Baldwin stepped out today in New York unshaven and reading a newspaper.
He looked casual in a pair of tan trousers and a black zip up jacket and later went for a bike ride around his neighbourhood.
The actor is reported by some quarters to to be tying the knot with fiance Hilaria this weekend, although even his closest family are giving nothing away.

'I’m going. I haven’t been told the location yet,' Alec's actor brother Stephen, 46, told The New York Post outside his home yesterday. 'That’s about all I can say, because he [Alec] can still kick my butt.'
The newspaper reports that the wedding guests will include Saturday Night Live boss Lorne Michaels, talk-show host Jimmy Fallon and most of the 30 Rock cast.
The wedding is said to be taking place at the historic St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in Nolita in the SoHo are of New York.

Last week, the actor made an appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman, and appeared to be in the mood to play down the antics of last week.
But even dropping his trousers for Letterman didn't knock the host off his planned course of questioning the actor about the fracas.
After taking the stage to Pat Benatar's Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Baldwin broke the tension by declaring that he’d lost weight - and dropped his pants as proof, Letterman then downed his trousers too.
But sensing the inevitable, Alec then said: 'Let’s get to it, shall we?
'You’re obviously burning to hold up the cover of the Daily News.'
'The picture, without knowing the story, tells a tale that’s not often true,' said Letterman.
Baldwin then offered his explanation, while pointing at the cover of the newspaper.
'I’m forming the letter ‘F’ with my mouth, and what I’m saying is, ‘What F-stop are you on with the camera?’' Alec said.
The evidence: David Letterman dangled this copy of the New York Daily News under Alec Baldwin's nose when the actor appeared on the Late Show last week
