Style File: Kim Kardashian Summer Fashion

Kim Kardashian Summer Fashion 2008

Kim Kardashian Fashion picks for Summer 2008

 

Tired of seeing and reading about Kim Kardashian yet? I am, too – kinda – although even I am guilty of gawking at her style choices pretty often. Overrated or not, you gotta admit that Kim Kardashian is one of the trendiest gals in Hollywood right now. Among the “F” words she’s associated with – “faux” being one of them because she’s always wearing those long false eyelashes – I happen to think her wardrobe is “fierce” and “fabulous”. For that reason I am doing this expose on some of Kim Kardashian’s choice summer fashions.

 

Metallics

I predict that metallics will lie to rest after this summer but that doesn’t stop Miss Kardashian from rocking this metallic gold tube dress striped in black with black peep toe pumps. The small black clutch is a perfect accessory to this tiny slim-fitting dress. Pairing metallic clothes with basic black pieces ensures your look won’t be too clash-y.

 

Wide Leg Pants

Along with bell bottom flares, high-waist wide-legged pants have been seen all over the place since last fall. Victoria Beckham is also a repeat offender of this trend. I love how Kim pairs these high-waist wide-legged jeans with a grey button-up top to make it chic, yet has rolled-up sleeves and the bottom all tied up to show just the right amount of skin on a fair summer night. Again, the accessories are on point: metallic silver stacked bangles, a silvery grey clutch, and metallic silver gladiator sandals complete Kim’s wide-legged look.

 

Prints & Patterns

Pucci- and Missoni-style prints seem to emerge season in and season out in some form and this summer it’s all about bright print dresses. Kim Kardashian pairs this Mint print dress with velvety brown peeptoe pumps for a totally fun and refreshingly non-skintight summer ensemble.

 

Eyelets

It’s somewhat shocking to see Kim in such a… classy, long, snow white eyelet dress with matching handbag and white lace-up platforms. Still, Kim keeps it Kim-style with a revealing bust, although the flipped collar maintains this more tasteful, demure look.

 

 

So, what do *you* think? Is Kim Kardashian's look HOT or NOT?

Which celeb(s) would you like to see in the next Celeb Style File?

You know what? I want to hate on Kim, but I'm not. I think Kim is beautiful and has a smoking body. I'm not a fan, in general, of tube dresses but everything else she is wearing looks great. Not that Kim is going to be any little girls hero, but I'm glad that she can wear clothes that covers yet still looks sexy. I think a lot of young ladies need to see more of those images (than those of the gold lame tube dress variety).

Rihanna! Perfect. She loves the baggy pants as much as Posh does it seems...

tsk tsk It's not "double-posting"... & I wasn't giving Sparkle*Shelf enough love via my blog so why not send my readers over here to read my latest fashion post. :)

I'd like to see the Olsen twins' super recent style or what Rhianna wears when she's keeping it casual (versus award shows or performing).

Great post here! I'm always about 50/50 on Kim's style. Having written about her myself, obviously some stuff I love, but those flares with the tied up top for instance I just find to look trashy.
