Unlikely Style Muse: Kim Kardashian


I thought I'd start a new edition, that looks at the people I have found style inspiration from - those who I may have not considered previously and some who cause a stir. I don't discriminate based on their character when it comes to deciding whether someone looks good, because if you look great I don't care who you are.
I'm a big Kardashian fan but at times i have found myself loving or loathing Kimmy K. Lately however, her style has been admirable, she ha become some what of a style icon for me, she keeps things classy yet so sexy. And has made an astonishing style transformation, toning down the over-clash of bright colours and keeping things simple  yet elegant is a rounded definition of how i see style. Now that is not to say that her fashion choices are not point of objection and controversy. 
She has made curvy sexy, and her outfit choices have complimented her figure perfectly. She has really become a style icon. 

I have picked my top 9 favourite Kimmy K style moments!



LOOK 1.
       I'm a self proclaim white on white lover, and it
 takes guts for a curvy girl to pull it off and Kim has
made me love it more! I love co-ord pieces
there really hot right now and simple.

LOOK 2.  
I love these pastel colours matched with
an oversized coat.  I love the pastel teal high-waisted
skirt, that mermaid tails at the end shows elegance,
 while still keeping it Kim with the tight fitted  crop.
 Love it! I love Kim variety of over-sized coats,
she really styles them right, this one in particular.  

 LOOK 3. 
Not normally a fan of metallics but this pieces is so
 beautiful. The mild sheerness of the outfit say sexy
but not trashy. She has really works this
 one out. The crop keeps things cute.
               



LOOK 4. 

This outfit is so simple yet so sophisticated. 
White shirt, black pants and nude heels. 
Kimmy has done it right again. The cut of both 
pieces compliment her figure, tight and revealing 
where necessary sculpting her best features. 


LOOK 5.

One of my all time favourite outfit ever worn
 by Kim. The transparent top is kept subtle
by the length of her sleeves and the high
neck line. I love how she pull of a tight
maxi, yet again embracing her curves.
White all the way. 

LOOK 6. 
I love the pale pink this Autumn, and although
 the seasons are different here to the USA,
 it still works all year round. I love the cut 
and style of this outfit, the skivvy/ high-neck
 lines are are so in right now and she wears
 this trend so well. And again her curves
 are being showcased in this hot tight high-waisted 
skirt.


LOOK 7. 
This cinderella style gown is so beautiful.
 Keeping the piece simple in cut, but so flattering. I love red, 
on Kim she holds it so beautifully. 

LOOK 8. 
I love Kim's relaxed airport look. She looks
 so stylish but so comfortable. and again 
the monochrome trend is ageless, its for any 
age and figure as long as you wear the 
correct style of clothing in the places you
 desire to flatter or tone down. So basic, but very
 effective. 

LOOK 9. 
And finally, The last look for the evening. I love 
vintage lace look, giving this dress a classy feel 
but the sheerness and transparency of her dress 
matched with the fuller underclothes are becoming
 a trend, one that I'm not so brace to try yet, 
but one that Kim makes look effortless. I love the 
mermaid hem it creates such elegance and
 creates an illusion of a fuller womanly figure and 
skinner legs. 



What are your favourite Kim fashion moments? Or who is your latest fashion crush that you wouldn't have thought to be?

Trending: Lets Go Native; Brazil & Arica




Im currently loving Native inspired clothing and the abstract designs of Brazil and Africa especially! I would love for this trend to be brought to life this Summer, and I wish I could find more items like this!

The colours, bold patterns and entrancing impact of how each piece seems unique to each outfit, fits my style brief. I love loud and unique, so wearing these patterns are so much fun.

The Exotic and daring embellishments and crazy structures of these patterned pieces take me to the Carnival of Rio De Janeiro or the Jungles of Africa. 

Here are a few of my favourite pieces I have found around 




Let me know of stores that sell pieces to this brief, I'm also interested to learn of other Native pattern inspired clothing that you love!

Body

I don't exactly have a Victoria Secret model body, and I can confidently enough say that I'm happy with just that...
But, aside from looking great, there is preference in the need to feel great! I have lived a sluggish lifestyle, never really held much interest in sports... Always ate what I wanted when I wanted.. But once high school ended and that cushion turned into flab, I knew it was time to be proactive... 
Now, I'm no fitness guru but I do know a thing or two about determination and motivation.
You can buy all the diet books, equipment, food or pay for gyms and personal trainers, but at the end of the day the crunch comes down to you.. 
Your mindset can be your greatest friend or Your greatest enemy... 
Have you ever had a moment in life where you have decided to 'get fit'? Be more active? Never eat junk food again? 
And been so in control of what you ate or did, but saw no results after a few weeks, and then gave up... Story of my life, amen! 
But, I can tell you that the journey never ends, fitness is a lifestyle not a location, you must defeat all insecurity and understand that you are great! 
Remember with no challenge there's no gain, and with no gain comes demotivation... 

So, keep your heads up, chest out and butts up! Love your body not for others but for yourself! And gain and change will come from that! 

My journey to my perfect self, has only begun... I want you to join me! I will be an outlet for motivation.
If anyone has any tips in regards to this area pleas feel free to comment me, I will be beyond happy to hear from you :) 


Stay fab!
