This rule-breaking kid is just cruisin' around on Australian public transport.

The overdressed goat has been spotted taking a trip on a train with its owner in Melbourne, according to photos from the scene. One keen observer posted an image of the creature in a hat fit for a queen lounging across a double seat like nobody's business. Despite rules about feet on seats, this goat don't give a damn.

Let's take a moment to praise the fashion-forward icon. That bucket hat, that paisley scarf.

Alexi Lupin wrote on Reddit: "It's got its feet on the seats but I'll allow it because of that sweet hat." Another commenter took a moment to praise the killer outfit: "That goat is unfortunately better dressed than I will ever be." Yes, sir.

Public Transport Victoria are anti farm animals, with the organisation's website stating only dogs are allowed on the city's transport system and they must be muzzled. It also makes it clear they are not allowed on seats. It has no guidelines relating to animal fashion icons, though.

How can you muzzle style?

Unaware of the media storm about to develop, the stylin' goat was led by a chain to the station exit. A photo on Twitter shows the owner looking stumped as to how to maneuver her friend through the electronic gates. At least you have your looks, son.
