On the Little Women: LA episode “Rollin’ with the Homies,” Christy Gibel plans her daughter Autumn‘s skating disco-themed birthday party. Autumn, who is 19, feels smothered and worries Christy is only being overbearing because Autumn is a little person. However, that sense of suppression doesn’t keep Autumn from having having a good time at the roller rink. Autumn ditches her eyeglasses, puts on a pair of cute gold hoops, and rocks a super sexy denim jumper and cute ponytail (see photo below). Of course, that’s not the only drama going down at the roller rink.

When Tonya Banks brings Jaa to the party and tells the girls that they’re finally more than just friends, Elena announces, “He has a girlfriend.” That doesn’t sit well with Tonya, so she stands up and walks out. “I don’t need them treating me like a damn child,” Tonya tells the camera. Autumn might have said the same exact thing about her mother.
In Christy’s defense, just last year when Autumn graduated from high school she announced that she wanted to move out of her mother’s house and find an apartment near colleges that she was interested in. Todd had to remind Autumn that she needed to get into a college first, let alone get a driver’s license.
Autumn has contended that a driver’s license isn’t going to be easy due to her poor eyesight. She says she can’t wear contact lenses every day of the week, and her glasses cause glaring and might provoke her double vision issue. But her eyes look good at the skating rink! Little Women: LA airs Thursdays at 10 pm on Lifetime right after Little Women: Atlanta.
