Is Kim Kardashian The Most “Un-Chic” Pregnant Celebrity Ever

March 29th, 2013 by Nigel

We all have stalked many pregnant celebrity bellies before, from divas like Beyonce to Jessica Simpson but we have never seen a transformation quite like Kim Kardashian’s. The reality star that puts the Kim in “Kimye“, known for her curves amongst other things is slowly adding another way of being recognized onto her resume, the celeb with the most un-chic pregnancy.

Body conscious dresses that use to do the A-list celeb’s body justice, and commanded praises from the panel of E!s Fashion Police to the million of fans who faithfully tune into Kourtney and Kim Take Miami every Sunday at 9pm on E! are now putting Kim on a new list, the worst dress list.

With no signs of the starlet wearing anything that looks like maternity wear we have to wonder, why is Kim choosing to wear things that don’t flatter her lovely lady lump in the front. Is Kanye West influencing his baby’s mother to squeeze into Lanvin and Donna Karan instead of dressing for her new, more round body type. Why hasn’t the Kardashian brand launched a maternity line for the Kardashian Kollection and use Kim as the face for it, and what can fashion choices can we expect in the future while she continues to carry the most popular baby of 2013?

Now its time for you to sound off with your thoughts on how Kim has looked over the past few months, we would love to here your opinion.

Paris Fashion Week: Wild Shoe Wednesday (Prelude) – Kanye West Shoes “Sexy As F***”

March 6th, 2012 by Christen

Kanye West shoes are getting all kinds of publicity lately. First his Giuseppe Zanotti collaboration has been seen on store shelves in Europe selling for almost $6,000, then it was announced that Kanye West designed the footwear for Aussie designer Dion Lee’s debut London presentation over the weekend.  And now, according to GlamazonsBlog.com on the heels of his second Paris Fashion Week Runway Show – his footwear has already been labeled “Sexy As F***” by model Jourdan Dunn.

 

So what’s the fuss all about…well besides a runway filled with flying racecars zooming around the audience – take a look at them and several of the fashions hitting the runway yourself and let us know what you think?

From Versace To Victoria’s Secret: Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Jay Z and More!

November 10th, 2011 by Christen

From the Versace Fashion Extravaganza to The Victoria’s Secret Fashion show, celebrities like Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Jay Z and more have certainly got a fill of fashion this week!  Wednesday night, Victoria’s Secret taped their annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and the celebs weren’t the only ones drawing the ooohs and ahhhs.

 

Kanye West was gearing up for a big night of performances alongside Maroon 5 and Nicki Minaj, who pumped up the crowd — and the models — at the VS show taping Wednesday and airing Nov. 29 on CBS (10 p.m. ET/PT). The event drew celebrities such as Tyson Beckford, Cuba Gooding Jr.Russell SimmonsMichael Bay and Stephen Dorff. (I even hear that Beyonce was in the building too!

Six themes, including “Ballet,” “Super Angels” and “Aquatic Angels” —  38 different models (including superstars like Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr and Doutzen Kroes), who walked the runway in 31 different pairs of wings concluded 69 different looks (minus the partridge in a pear tree.).

This has been an exciting year for many of the Victoria’s Secret Angels, from marriages, growing careers and even growing families (you won’t even believe some of these models actually just had babies!!!)

 

Performing his solo hit “Stronger,” Kanye serenaded models as they passed, and then was joined by his Watch the Throne partner, Jay-Z, for a rousing version of their current smash ”N—as in Paris”. Nicki Minaj strutted down the catwalk in a brightly colored cosmic-themed number, bounding her way through “Super Bass.”

And Maroon 5′s Adam Levine walked hand-in-hand with his girlfriend, Victoria’s Secret model Anne Vyalitsyna, while singing his band’s megahit “Moves Like Jagger.”

The annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was more like a party filled with musical performance, models and outrageous intimate apparel.

Push those plates away and get ready for a little incentive to begin New Year’s dieting early - The 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show air November 29 on CBS.

Mr. West Invades Paris Fashion Week

October 3rd, 2011 by Fashion Staff

Flowing fabrics, leather and fur, beaded stilettos and matching “Yeezi” (taught me)  nameplates adorned the models throughout the anticipated release of Kanye West’s Paris Fashion Week debut.  Featuring runway royalty with the likes of supermodels including Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn, Karlie Kloss, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Anais Mali and Izabel Goulart.  There were several high acclaimed pieces including this cream finale piece worn by model Chanel Iman.


     

The textures were accompanied by a host of different cuts , from daringly cut dresses and color-block pants to body-hugging tracksuits and high-end hoodies.


     

Going against the typical light, feathery drapes and colors of spring Mr. West presented a spring collection that consisted mostly of typically fall materials like leathers, furs, and heavy knit sweaters.

          

 

 

 

 

There’s current speculation if the untitled line will be named “Yeezi” , “KW” or “DW”  one thing that’s for sure is that the ready to wear designer line will spell W-I-N for the Hip Hop Phenom and be proven as a step in the right direction for this budding designer.  (We just need to know how soon we can get our hands on a fur backpack…)

When Leopard Goes Wrong…

March 6th, 2011 by Christen

 

We at Divas and Dorks consider ourselves “progressive” when it comes to fashion, but if we did not speak up on the atrocity that has been sweeping the fashion world we’d be doing you a grave disservice.  What atrocity do we speak of? Leopard’s Revenge.  You know, when celebrities try a trend but the trend ends up killing them instead – that’s Leopard’s Revenge. Many celebrities have taken on the leopard print trend and others have murdered the trend into the dark depths of horrific proportions…  Here lies the victims of Leopard’s Revenge…

 

1.  Chris Tucker in ’5th Element’ – I completely blame this flamboyant intergalactic look for starting this madenning trend early.  I mean, everybody knows that this look completely inspired Givenchy, and Nicki Minaj was the perfect character to bring the Roman’s Leopard’s Revenge back to life…

 

2.  Nicki Minaj - “This outfit is a masterpiece by Givenchy and what they made for me is a miraculous piece of lioness meets her cub meets fierce-osity meets fabulosity meets fashionista meets runway meets everything, darling!” Nicki told Ryan Seacrest onE! Live from the Red Carpet. Nicki was just as enthusiastic when she talked to PEOPLE on the red carpet, saying, “I saw it, I loved it, I had to have it.”

 

3.  Kanye West – Er, ummmm During Paris Fashion Week Mr. West was quite literally spotted wearing a rather feminine-looking leopard print bolero jacket in in the front row of the Martin Margiela ready to wear Fall/Winter collection and at the Lanvin catwalk show.  (I love me some Kanye – musically – but fashionably, that boy ain’t quite right….)

Today’s ABC’s of Fashion lesson has been brought to you by the letter “M” for Moderation. There is nothing wrong with wearing leopard at all. In my humble opinion it’s one of the sexiest prints a woman can wear in moderation. But just because it’s a diva-worthy print, that doesn’t mean you can “pile em on” like you’re an extra character on Animal Planet. This print should only be matched with basic/solid colors – if not, then you risk the chance of becoming a casualty to Leopard’s Revenge for sure.
