Kim Kardashian’s full-skirted trench coat: unfortunate or cute?

fp_7050402_kardashian_humphries_aar_00_13

I’m hesitant to even admit this, but here goes: I’m built a lot like Kim Kardashian. Only my junk is natural, and Kim’s… well, I’ve never known for sure about the alleged butt implants, but I think the boobs are fake. Anyway, for girls built like me and Kim, there are certain style rules that you just know, in your heart, from an early age. Like, as soon as you start “filling out”. I’ve read interviews with Kim where she’s described her too-early development, and I’ve related to that. I was a C-cup by the age of 14 (and I’m now a double-D). Kim and I have similar “problem areas” too – I can just tell. Our thighs will always be the bane of our existence, and it’s always a struggle to show off our smaller waists given that everything else is so epically proportioned.

So… the idea of her coat is understandable. I know exactly what went through Kim’s head when she selected this coat and when she cinched it at the waist. She was thinking, “Look, I have a small waist, I’m not just a huge pair of tits and a giant ass!” Unfortunately for Kim, she tends to forget the style rules that curvy girls always need to follow – you should never have this much volume going on below the waist. The top of the coat is fine – she looks cute from the waist up. It’s the full-skirted coat bottom that is disturbing me. Instead of looking cute and lithe, the whole thing looks like a costume created for a Tim Burton film, right?

Oh, and that’s her “boyfriend” Kris Humphries with her. He’s a giant. Imagine how friggin’ tall he is if he’s still towering over her while she’s wearing those gigantic boots!

    I think she was inspired by Princess Kate. Also, how do they have sex? I mean….practically speaking, how do they line up? She probably stares at his belly button, no?

  2. Victoire says:

    He’s too tall… This outfit is OK when you look at some of her looks in the past =)

  3. Deeta says:

    I dont mind the bottom half of the trenchcoat, I think the skirt effect is cute… I think the problem is the stripper boots.

  4. Jennay says:

    I think the coat is terrific but the boots are yucky

  5. BeckyR says:

    I like the trench coat, but she could lose those unfortunate looking boots. Big clash!

  6. OtherChris says:

    Wow, that is one ginormous boyfriend.

    I don’t hate the coat. I probably wouldn’t love it on anyone, but I don’t think it looks awful either.

  7. Racheal says:

    Those boots are criminally hideous. He’s too cute for her.

    I almost didn’t comment because if a Kardashian doesn’t receive any attention, will she / they not exist? The atrocious nature of those boots compelled me to type.

  8. MikeyAngel says:

    I am Kardashianesque as well with the big boobs, always had em. This is a no no, as are many of her featured outfits. I hate all of the leggings as well. The boots here are not a good look either.

  9. Rita says:

    I was thinking the same thing about the look from the waste up but how excited should one get about 3 pairs of buttons.

    As far as, “our thighs will always be the bane of our existence”, I assume you were not hogging all the “bane” for just you and Kim and were using the global gender form of “our”.

  10. sandy says:

    why is this hooker everywhere? look at her smiling for the attention, it will not go away, the way she became popular, yuck!!!some people have low/no standards at all. oh, i like the coat and boots together. lol

  11. DGO says:

    I love the coat, just not on her. I think Kim is beautiful, but Kaiser’s right – too much stuff going on at the bottom to look great on Kim.

  12. snappyfish says:

    For the Love of everything this is or may ever be Holy…Please please stop covering this mediawhore/celebutard.

  13. joe's girl says:

    Reminds me of the uniforms some of the flying monkeys wore on the Wizard of Oz

  14. melinda says:

    I absolutely love the coat. It needs to be paired with something more demure, like classic pumps. Those boots with the coat just do not match style wise. And they’re super tacky too.

  15. Riley says:

    Fug… the boots make it even fugly-er (if that is possible). Boring colors too. Black and khaki. She should wear a nice green coat or something. She looks like she could be Inspector Gadget’s nemisis.

  16. Diane says:

    Those two look like they could be a circus act. Cute coat, but the bottom is just too full, probably doesn’t look good from behind.

  17. Hollowdoll says:

    I never thought I’d see anything more amusing than Hayden P with her BF, bwaaahahahahahaha! Thanks for the laugh!

    Go Go gadget legs would look better than those boots! ;-P

  18. guesty says:

    I kinda like it. I don’t like that it’s buttoned all the way up tho.

  19. hstl1 says:

    All I can think of is them in bed when the boots are off. How does that even work when he is 9 feet tall and she is 5 feet tall?

    Now I have to scrub my brain out with chlorox.

  20. Quest says:

    Love the top portion of the coat, not the bottom, hate the boots….gosh he is f*ckn’ tall geez talk about weird sex angles.

    Sorry I am all caffinated today.

  21. Marjalane says:

    That coat would be darling on someone like Blake Lively. On Kardashian it looks like she was pumped into it. In fact, everything she wears looks like she was pumped in it.

  22. Melanie says:

    She is too short to pull off that coat. She looks like she is wearing a stupid ballet tutu. I don’t know if I am in a bad mood or what but her face looks really damn tarded.

  23. Novaraen says:

    He looks like he’s walking his daughter or something…walking his short alien faced friend. Whatever…lol

    The trench is boring in that color…but the skirt part is kinda nice. The boots look terrible…period.

  24. alexandra says:

    I admire her ability to stand next to a giant. I once went out with a basketball player and the thought what was hiding behind his trousers terrified me. I made up and excuse and left the dinner table to never see him again.

  25. Violet says:

    I love the coat, i think it really suits her figure. if you have hour glass proportions i think it’s fine to have volume on the bottom, unless you’re trying to hide your curves, and why would you? the only thing is i don’t think those boots go with it.

  26. Devon says:

    He’s 6’9, she’s 5’2. Almost 2 feet of difference. That is too much. She looks like a midget. She should join the lollipop guild in that get up. The skanky lillipop guild.

  27. Jules says:

    @Melanie, that’s the only look she has since her face has been frozen with botox. He’s 6’9″ that is very tall, but with those heels she must be maybe hitting 5 feet without shoes.

  28. nnn says:

    It’s better for EXTREMELY tall guys to get themselves very short girlfriend.

    My brother is 6’5 1/2″ and once dated a woman who was 6’2″ 1/2. My mother got scared that they may end up getting married and having kids.

    He is now with a petite woman who is 5″1″ and they have a little boy boy who will end up, according the peadiatrician around 6,6″ despite his mum’s super tiny size.

  29. Julia says:

    They look ridiculous together, she looks like a freakin’ dwarf next to him. Love the boots however..

  30. Faye says:

    Love it!! The boots are too tall however, it looks like she’s wearing leather tights that culminate in shoes. She should have worn actual tights and shorter boots, just like calf high would have been nice and made the outfit much classier.

  31. crazydaisy says:

    I think the coat looks really cute – the boots are snug like tights or leggings so they keep the volume balanced, despite the silly sky high heels. However, KK looks like a teensy elf next to her oafish, lumbering gigantic boyfriend and that’s giving me creepy thoughts. Ew.

  32. Rachel says:

    I love the coat, I would totally wear it and I too am built like Kim and have had a hate affair with my thighs since I was 14.

    I’m shocked I like the boots. I never thought someone our height and shape could rock past the knee boots but the coat hides the reasons we normally can’t.

    PS: I think her boobs are real and her butt is fake. My butt is huge and it doesn’t have a shelf like hers does in her latest nude photos. That is not natural. Her boobs look um “right” in her nude photos.

  33. Rachel says:

    Wait… she’s shorter than me! Woo hoo! I’m 5’3″ 1/2 – that 1/2″ is very important to my mental well being. In public I claim 5’4″ at the shortest.

  34. Sparkly says:

    I like it, but the boots aren’t working with it, imo.

  35. dahlia1947 says:

    It looks really stupid on her. I think I would say the same about anything she wears cause I’m just sick of the b&!c#. :{

  36. Hollowdoll says:

    I want to like the boots, I just can’t.
    I look at them and I see this.

  37. jane16 says:

    Don’t like the coat. What is amazing though is that even with such high heels she doesn’t reach his shoulder. Without ’em she probably at about nipple height to him! Wow!

  38. YAY says:

    #28 – it would be kinda hilarious if your nephew grew up to be 5″1.

  39. Dea says:

    That is the most awkward looking couple. She really looks like a dwarf not to mention she is on at least 5- inch heels
    @Christine I thought the same. That must be really horrible…I bet he is interested in some fame through this family.

  40. Myra says:

    Ha. I’m glad she called the paps up so we could discuss her coat, which is cute, but not really perfect for her.

  41. maya says:

    I was reading a story on another site about Kim and Kris Humphries. People were arguing about how black he is. I follow Kris on twitter and I have been to some NJ Nets games. He is bi-racial and some time ago he twitted a picture of his family and his father is african-american. I guess some people don’t realize that african americans come in all shades.

  42. Emma says:

    That is a big guy, but he’s cute! And honestly, this is the best I’ve seen Kim look, well, ever. In my opinion anyway. I usually hate her style with a passion, but I think this look is adorable and would wear it in a heartbeat. It would look a bit different on me as I’m not quite as… blessed as Kim (I’m an hourglass, but I’m much more, umm, stretched out if that makes any sense). I think the coat is actually really flattering on Kim, much more so than those awful body-con dresses she’s always wearing.

  43. Maritza says:

    The outfit would’ve looked better with normal knee high boots. She must really get neck aches when she kisses him. She looks so much prettier when she doesn’t wear so much makeup.

  44. meilamon says:

    I just want to know what sex would be like with a guy that big? Can anyone elaborate?

  45. RHONYC says:

    kaiser, you crack me the hell up! lol 😆

  46. Flotus says:

    I really don’t know where to start with this gawd awful outfit! Kim is entirely to short to be wearing “thigh” high boots and the trench…well, any one with a rear as large as hers should never put ruffles over it. It makes it look even larger and draws more attention to it. Which, could be the reason she is wearing it!

  47. tomas says:

    The coat would look better on someone taller and thinner but it’s there to serve a purpose….to cover up that huge, fat ass. Let’s not pretend otherwise!

  48. Dea says:

    @snappyfish: I so agree with you and can’t believe this media obsession with trashy people. I am sure it will stop one day but as to when it depends…

  49. nnn says:

    #38

    But he won’t. Since he was born, he always was measured at a size over the tallest range for babies (measuring the size of babies), took 2 inches and a half during the first three weeks and now that he is 3, he is still the tallest little guy if his class in kindergarten.

    Peadiatricians said he is evolving like he will be a little taller than my brother and pretty well built. he has took the tall gene of his black father and the tough gene of his dutch mum.

  50. Dani says:

    Forget about the coat. The shame is what she has done to her face. She has totally erased her ethnicity and that is what made her beautiful.

  51. LadyBert62 says:

    Well, they look ridiculous together as a couple – size-wise speaking.

    The trench coat is OK, the boots are silly. Who needs boots that high over the knee in a city – please!

  52. Amanda G says:

    I love the coat! It’s the boots that are all wrong.

  53. Cha Cha Loca says:

    Please, please, please stop covering this vapid whore.

  54. Marie says:

    loool looks like a man taking a kid for a walk.. “here sweetie.. take my hand so we can cross the street”…

  55. Emily says:

    I think the coat’s totally cute, and I want one! I hate the boots though-I think it would work better if she had a pair of suede knee highs.

    How tall is he exactly? He looks like a giant. Like Khloe Kardashian would only come up to his chest. Jesus.

  56. fancyamazon says:

    I’ve seen this a lot on celebrity photos, and maybe its a new trend or something, but it bugs the hell out of me. Why tie a perfectly good buckled belt? Are you in too much or a hurry? Do you not understand how it works? Do you have bladder control issues and are worried about getting it undone in a hurry?

    I realize this probably makes me sound old, or whatever, but I don’t care. Why not just do the belt up the way it is supposed to be done up? Or, since all of the people I see doing this have way more money than brains, why not have the store you bought the coat from make you a tie belt instead of the one that come with the coat? or just cut the buckle off, have your tailor/seamstress sew it up and add velcro? Eye hooks? Or get a different belt and be all “fashion-forward” with it. Or wahtever. But not doing the buckle up just looks sloppy to me.
    /end rant

  57. lila says:

    That man is a monster! It’s huge!

  58. sirsly says:

    PLEASE stop covering this girl. So annoying and BORING.

  59. Az says:

    Everything about Kim Kardashian is unfortunate starting with her jacked up face.

  60. Kloops says:

    Her proportions with this look are all wrong and make her look diminutive. Too long hair, short but voluminous coat, too tall boots. All wrong. But I think her face looks cute. She’s very pretty.

  61. Cirque28 says:

    Wow! When have we ever thought this woman needed LESS fabric covering her body?

    #28 I dunno if that’s true about extremely tall dudes. My mom was almost 6′ tall. Nothing annoys tall women more than extremely tall men with tiny women. Because that is a WASTE of a tall man, and, really, who do short women think they are to pull such nonsense? (Or I guess it might’ve just been my crazy mom who believed that.)

  62. honeyv says:

    I don’t know if it’s the coat or the boy that makes her look softer, smaller and somehow cuter. I think she made a good choice picking that coat, though. It’s definitely flattering for that type of body! (You know I’m pointing at you, Kaiser!)

  63. galaxy.girl says:

    I could care less about her style but would LOVE for her to be in love & out of “HERSELF”… Something other than branding, business, marketing bs… Just a girl into a guy & not the “fame” or whatever the family is about.

  64. Eleonor says:

    The coat is fine, I have a similar one, but the hooker boots are totally wrong.

  65. alynn says:

    she literally has to look up in the sky to look at her boyfriend lol

  66. Paige says:

    he is insanely tall!

  67. embertine says:

    I don’t mind the coat or the boots, but I think it’s pretty hilarious that the expression on her face is exactly the same as that of Happy Kitten.

  68. michael says:

    i am dying to take a pair of scissors to her hair. it’s been the same for the past 50 years? someone give the girl a long bob or something. oh & the trench coat?

    hideous, just hideous.

  69. Melanie says:

    I wish I had a D-Listed password! Kim K is big dummy.

  70. TXCinderella says:

    Dear Kim,

    No one over the age of thirty should be wearing black nail polish. It’s just tacky and immature.

  71. KarenC22 says:

    Oh, is the circus back in town??!!

  72. GoodnessGracious says:

    @ #63. You are dead on. That choice of coat is perfect for her frame. It’s not as though she is bottom-heavy and thus the skirt exacerbates it; her legs and hips are slim enough to pull of the look.

    The boots are the bad choice in this ensemble.

  73. truetalk says:

    @ meilamon; i’m thinking she’ll have to be on top if not she’ll only ever hear him shouting “oh yes baby!” from a great distance!lol

  74. Freya says:

    Ridiculous! Get rid of that tree! LOL

  75. ashley says:

    were can you get one?

  76. armenian says:

    i like that coat does anyone know where i can buy a coat like that?
    thank you
