Kim Kardashian wore white for her Las Vegas b-day party: tacky or sexy?

wenn21860931

Kim Kardashian’s birthday was last week, October 21st to be exact. To celebrate her actual birthday, Kanye West surprised her by waking her up at 3 am so they could fly to Hawaii for a mini-break. Which is sweet, although I think most moms would have preferred to just get a solid eight hours of sleep, you know? Anyway, Kim celebrated her birthday publicly by hostessing a party at TAO nightclub in Las Vegas on Friday. These are some photos from the event.

At this point, I’m kind of tired of seeing Kim’s body on display in awkward clothing. I think there are some women who can pull off sexy, revealing clothes and manage to actually look comfortable. Kim rarely looks comfortable. Her body looks like it was sculpted out of plastic and you could tell she didn’t love her dress because she was tugging at it and adjusting herself in half the red carpet shots. Kanye was there too, and for what it’s worth, he seemed happy to be there for his girl. Khloe was there too. She wore a gold grill, because of course.

The ES Standard Magazine released their full interview with Kim, which you can read here. I covered some of the early excerpts from the piece last week. The full article is well-written, but it’s done in that patronizing style of many UK journalists, especially when they’re dealing with American celebrities. Kim is perfectly pleasant in the piece and the journalist even admits as much, that Kim is one of the nicest celebrities she’s ever interviewed. There’s not much new info there, but Kim does admit that if she takes a bad selfie, she edits the photo before she posts it. Yeah, we know girl.

    I wish Kim would dress for her body. It would save us all a great deal of cringing.

    • Zinjojo says:

      Yeah, this dress might be okay on someone really tall and willowy, and that ain’t Kim.

    • TX says:

      Seriously.
      It’s not a knock on her body either! Just saying we don’t all look like a runway model. If Kim (and Kanye) would jut accept this as a reality she would save herself and us a lot of grief.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        Right, I think she could look really pretty if she would just accept that she’s not tall and model-thin.

    • Belle Epoch says:

      THIS IS GETTING VERY OLD. Another day, another view of beach balls stuffed into a tube. Nothing in this universe can make KK graceful or stylish. She will always look like an awkward cow because her body is unnatural, her feet are always at strange angles, and she refuses to wear clothes that fit. She did this to herself artificially and deliberately, so calling out her weird proportions is not “body-shaming.” KK is without shame!

  2. Lis says:

    This woman just never puts her tits away.
    You’re a mother for Pete’s sake … SMH

    • Stephanie says:

      Oh Lis, don’t you know it’s Rule #17 in the Kardashian Famewhore Guidebook. “Display as much of your body as possible in an inappropriate fashion.” 😉

      Her fashion and the terrible surgery make me cringe. I will say that her coloring is beautiful. I pretty much always like her makeup too. But she is usually always a huge fashion fail.

    • Do mothers have to behave different?

      • Lis says:

        Maybe dress a teensy bit classier than a street-walker. Just my opinion. But then I’m in Canada … you’d freeze wearing anything like that. 😉

      • Just your opinion, yes. But its sexism, nobody tells a father that he cannot show his abs anymore.

      • ketjo says:

        yes they do..! ….

      • Chinoiserie says:

        I do not think many father go about showing their abs in this kind of event. If they would I would say something. But it just a fact some women like to dress in a very revealing way, it is more common than men doing it.

      • bettyrose says:

        Maria ITA. Mothers are human sexual beings too. Kim shouldn’t dress that way because it doesn’t suit her body type. But if she were otherwise a decent person and good mom, I’d say more power to her to enjoy her youth however she chooses when the kids are being safely cared for elsewhere.

      • otaku fairy says:

        @Maria Herreros and @bettyrose: You both said it perfectly. Some body image issues, gender issues, and, in one case, ‘purity’ issues are being revealed in some of the comments and it’s nice to see that not everyone is playing that game. 🙂

      • Jules says:

        Maria, have you seen Mr Kardashian’s manboobs? He should keep his shirt buttoned.

    • Kloops says:

      The only thing that annoys me is that she cast full on shade at a nursing mother bc she felt she was showing too much dress. And yet this exhibitionist regales us with her breasts daily

  3. MG says:

    I’m so tired of seeing her boobs.

  4. InvaderTak says:

    Compaired to this, what they were 10 years ago was classy.

    • Mia V. says:

      She should stick to those bandage dresses, made her look a hundred times better than “couture”.

  5. Sarah says:

    She is too top heavy to go bra-less in anything.

  6. Aussie girl says:

    Put your titties away Kim. It seems like every time she dresses up these days she has her boobs out. And you know there would be a lot of tape involved getting those girls to stay. She is cringe worthy from the front and the back now.

  7. Nessa says:

    I don’t associate anything Kardashian with the word classy. Ever. It’s always trashy. And Kim takes it to a whole other level of trashy. Every. Single. Time.

  8. Tiffany says:

    She really needs to get over the illusion that she is a 6 foot amazon who can wear these clothes. She just cannot.

    • Josephine says:

      The dress makes her look all torso. She’s short as it is, and this dress really pulls down the torso in such an unflattering way.

      I look at her and see nothing but sad, sad, sad. I cannot imagine having to make myself look like that to garner attention, attention that has absolutely nothing to do with who I am, my brain, my humor, my soul. I cannot imagine the toll on her psyche, although maybe she’s not smart enough to see how degrading her choices have been.

      • Fan says:

        DON’T READ THIS IF JUDGEMENT OFFENDS YOU: Kim is not smart enough to understand that she looks trashy all the time. She is wearing whatever Kanye wants her to wear. I feel sorry for North. No one in that family will ever teach her the value of an education, talk about current events at the dinner table, or instill morales and ethics. It is all about materialism, money, and notoriety for both Kanye and Kim.

  9. Lucy2 says:

    I too wish she would put her boobs away. She looks ridiculous but that’s nothing new. And it looks like she’s wearing so much bronzer or something that you know that dress was instantly ruined as soon as she put it on. The inside is probably now a ghastly shade of orange.

  10. katP says:

    +1. I’m pretty curvy and looking at the shot from the back makes me cringe. Not pretty. Kim’s body is amazing, but you really gotta know how to dress it to accentuate the good things. Lately her fashion is totally haphazardly chosen.

    • Asra says:

      Totally agree!! A woman’s beautiful curves must be styled in the right way to give her comfort and class. But for some reason KK manages to creat the tackiest styles.

  11. Angie says:

    I am genuinely dismayed that I share a birthday with this clown. What kind of badly-dressed star were we born under?

    • Lori says:

      Happy Birthday to us both then Angie. I turned 40 on Kim’s Birthday. I however did not take my saggy t!tts out for it. Put them away Kim!

    • Bex says:

      My birthday too! Don’t worry, she must have an odd moon rising sign in her horoscope or something. Us Librans tend to be a pretty sharp-dressed lot. Nice to meet fellow birthdayers..

      • Lori says:

        Happy B-day to you too Bex. And Yes I agree Libras usually are snappy dressers. I blame this state on Kanye.

  12. whatevs says:

    What the Hell is Klohe doing? It looks like her bottom teeth have rotted out (never will understand those things…..), she seems to have faint eye line going down her face from the corner of her eyes (?), could she have any more fake tan on her for head, and her cheeks look like they are about to explode from fillers! Holy crap!!! 😱

    As far as Kim…… Gross, just gross but she always looks like that so whatever.

  13. minx says:

    Her look– the look she has created for herself–is unsustainable. Things are starting to go south and no amount of surgery will make her look the way she wants to look, ie, the way she looked ten years ago. She’s beginning to look overripe. Most women her age (and I’m a lot older than she is) learn that you can’t be the sex bomb forever, so you cultivate something else–looking elegant, looking fit, looking well put together, whatever. (I’m not even going to mention cultivating talent or intelligence, because she has neither, so that’s a lost cause). But her whole look is tits and ass and showing them to the world. She’s only going to get heavier and trashier looking as the years go on.

    • Chrissy says:

      Her breakdown will be epic!

      • Looks like you are eagerly waiting for a human person to break down

      • Chrissy says:

        Not at all Maria just that I’m sure her mother will make sure it’s publicized. The inevitable aging will be really tough on her….. that together with a maturing Nori may push her over the edge. Just the reality of an aging narcicisst with body dysmorphia and self-esteem issues.

      • minx says:

        She does seem to have body dysmorphia. It seems as if she doesn’t realize what her best features are (the way she looked a few years back, a more natural face, pretty hair and eyes, nice cleavage when it’s not out all day every day). But she emphasizes her worst features (her back, short legs that look shorter with those stupid ankle strap shoes and long hemline, too much butt, boobs that need support). I also think there’s a dynamic with Kayne where he wants her goods on display all the time to make him seem manlier (and that’s a whole ‘nother issue).

  14. AlmondJoy says:

    As a woman shaped very similar to Kim, it’s cool to see that she has the confidence to wear stuff like this. Not that I think its figure-flattering, I just think it’s nice that she’s not ashamed of her body, as many others seem to imply that she should be.

    • Bridget says:

      Why would she be ashamed of it when she picked it out herself?

    • Anon33 says:

      I agree 100%. It gets a bit tiring hearing over and over how dumpy and disgusting my figure is :/

      • Bridget says:

        While I personally think Kim tends to gravitate towards ill-fitting clothing (and I’d say that’s fair game except its just so boring) I am really uncomfortable with discussing someone’s back fat, because I feel that says a lot more about the observer than the person wearing the tacky clothes. Yes, Kim long ago turned her body and her personal life into commodities, but I simply have no desire to take someone apart piece by piece like that.

      • snowflake says:

        people just rag on her because they don’t like her. I’m sure your figure is just fine. when us women don’t like someone, we use anything to pick them apart. people don’t respect kim so that’s why they criticize her figure and her face. plus she’s obsessed with how she looks, so people make fun of her where it hurts.

        plus, compared to size zero stars, she looks way bigger. in reality, I would say she’s prob a curvy size six or eight. plus she just dresses nasty, shows too much, imo.

    • AlmondJoy says:

      Thanks, Maria! 😊

      Bridget, most celeb women have fake body parts. Lets not act as if she’s the only one that’s been surgically enhanced. The issue is that she’s choses to enhance her body to fit the OPPOSITE of what most people consider the standard of beauty.

      Anon33, exactly. As if there aren’t women that are naturally shaped like her. Her clothing is definitely much too revealing, but I don’t find her to be physically disgusting. Seeing the same comments about her over and over again is getting so old.

      I’m not a Kim fan, so it annoys me that I feel the need to defend her 😒

      • Jen34 says:

        @ AlmondJoy and Anon33

        Nobody is criticizing her body type. They are just criticizing how she dresses.
        Every body type can look amazing when dressed properly.

      • AlmondJoy says:

        Jen34, I respectfully disagree. I read this site often enough to see comments like “Who would want to have a body like that,” “she has a diaper booty,” and the other day, “Men don’t make passes at girls with large asses.” Those are comments about her body, not the clothing she wears.

        “Every body type can look amazing when dressed properly.” I’m definitely with you on that statement!

      • Bridget says:

        I’m certainly not implying that she’s the only woman in Hollywood to get extensive plastic surgery – but that wasn’t the topic at hand. I just find it ironic that you’re commenting on her comfort with her own, unconventional figure, when for someone to have undergone such extensive work she clearly wasn’t comfortable with the body she was born with. Not to be crass, but she paid a lot of money for her current figure, I can understand why she’d want to show it off, but even then considering her famous reliance on Photoshop for her personal photos it could lead one to believe that she’s not all that comfortable even now.

        That being said, I am not comfortable adding any commentary about anyone’s body, even Kim Kardashian. It’s weird and its creepy to stare at photos looking for cellulite lumps and back fat rolls, and I don’t even click on most KK stories because of it (which is probably the meanest thing you could ever do to a Kardashian).

    • Josephine says:

      I think she is deeply ashamed of her body, and has done lots to change it. She has made her face look so generic, and obviously did not like her curves as they were. She got rid of that which made her, her. There are so many women who truly embrace their bodies and their curves, but she seems to far from that.

  15. Gina says:

    Asking if Kim K looks trashy or classy is an oxymoron.

  16. Tiffany27 says:

    I don’t understand how she doesn’t see that the clothes make her look bigger than she actually is. She’s not fat at all, but you can’t tell from the way she dresses.

    • AlmondJoy says:

      Tiffany, I think it’s because she’s not aiming to look smaller. Most women want to wear what flatters them and makes them look as thin as possible. I don’t think Kim wants to look thin.

      • Tiffany27 says:

        After having thought about past outfits recently that makes sense. I don’t think Kim does dress to look smaller.

      • KellyBee says:

        I disagree Kim Photoshops her pictures to make her look thinner and she wear clothes that are too small for her because she wants to look thinner.

        People don’t wear clothes that flatter them to make themselves look thinner.

  17. Tracy says:

    I thought the view from the front was bad and then I saw the view from the back. Yuck.

    • Gina says:

      A double high five on that. There is nothing left to the imagination. She is so enamored of herself, I think she feels the need to expose herself to please her “fans??” Exhibitionism at its finest. Since white represents purity, this woman shouldn’t be allowed to wear it. Kind of like a code of honor, she just can’t sit with us.

      • otaku fairy says:

        @Gina: “Since white represents purity, this woman shouldn’t be allowed to wear it. Kind of like a code of honor, she just can’t sit with us.”

        Well! Aren’t we prim and proper? If purity is still, in 2014, the requirement for wearing the color white, then probably about 90% of American women AND men 17 and older should not be wearing the color, as most are not pure. 😀

      • Gina says:

        I was referring to the virginal white of a wedding gown in a time that exists no longer. The rest was just goofing on the Queen Thot. Relax, it’s only Kim, nothing serious!

  18. Nene says:

    Too many things wrong here:
    Man, those her girls look like butt cleavage in that tacky white dress.
    This is TMI but from the top it looks like a booty wearing a too small g-string bikini.
    Her shoes look painful.
    And lastly, Kim is standing awkwardly (the shoes?) ,and seems kinda uncomfortable like she needs to pee or something. Maybe she is wary of flashing her full boobs for the camera?
    Kim is such a huge slave and victim of fashion and the funny thing is that she thinks she is Coco Chanel.#haa!

    • Anne tommy says:

      I think apart from not looking classy she always looks so bloody uncomfortable. All the tightness and the straps and I assume the spanx and tape to stop the boobs coming out, just so much effort, even when going shopping or to the gym, just so over the top.

  19. hello says:

    Just like Blake. Honestly I think Kim pulls it off better.

  20. Spaniard89 says:

    Unlike with other celebs when talking about Kim K there is no need to ask if some outfit is tacky, it always is. So save yourself the question mark and just state it. No one will complain lol

  21. Beatrice says:

    This look skipped tacky and went straight to tragic!

  22. OhDear says:

    I don’t think the extreme low cut top works well on her body type (it’s more flattering on someone with smaller boobs, for example JLo in that green dress and Amy Adams in American Hustle), but IMO it’s one of her better looks. It’s not too tight for once and doesn’t have that sausage casing effect. I’d even say she looks nice in it.

    The back of that dress is ugly, though.

  23. Stacey says:

    Vulgar!! She is beautiful and could look amazing with better hair styling (her middle part slick downed hair does nothing for her). Her clothing choices with her boobs hanging out is just vulgar at this point. She dresses horribly. Can’t believe she pays people to pick these outfits out. They make her uglier than she is

  24. word says:

    Yes most mothers would rather have a good night sleep instead of being woken up at 3am…however we are talking about Kim Kardashian. She probably gets 12 hours of sleep a night. Remember she pays someone to get up in the night when her daughter is crying. Kind of a waste to go to Hawaii for just one night. That’s insane. And on top of that to tweet about it so everyone knows. Can’t these two keep anything private? The dress is typical Kim style. Nothing new. Looks like she put some extensions back in event hough she recently bragged about how she didn’t need extensions anymore because she was using some product (she got paid to endorse) that makes your hair thicker or longer or something.

    As a side note, there is a hilarious video going around of Kim when she was 13, it’s a must see ! She was voted “most likely to lie about her ethnicity” by her classmates…how telling is that ? She also brags in the video about how she’s the most popular kid at her school and how she’s going to famous one day.

  25. Jh says:

    Her face seems to have settled or something. Her face looks les cat-like and more natural.

  26. DrFunkenstein says:

    Was godawful an option? Tacky is a given.

  27. MediaMaven says:

    I wore a top like that recently – my doctor gave it to me prior to a breast exam. Never thought to leave the office wearing it. Guess I’m not “fashion forward”.

  28. Eleonor says:

    I don’t know if Kim ever feels comfortable, I think it’s because of the tons of work she has done to her face: she cannot show human expression like a normal person anymore.

    • snowflake says:

      no, she just chooses not to smile because her face will not appear as smooth and perfect in pictures. trust me, I had botox and fillers and I could smile just fine. she just wants her face to look perfect in pictures

  29. me says:

    In that first thumbnail pic you can see her self-tanner is only on halfway down her arm. Was that done on purpose so it wouldn’t ruin her white dress or did someone forget?

  30. word says:

    Just imagine, she is getting paid to celebrate her bday, and on top of that the E! cameras were there to tape it for her reality show…so she’s getting paid TWICE. Nice life but how will she handle it when the fame and money fade away…and they will at some point.

  31. LaurieH says:

    Is this woman completely incapable of wearing clothes that don’t showcase her boobs? Either they are out on full display or she’s got them straining in something super tight or she’s got her nipples on parade. And if it was just that – as unseemly as that is for someone her age who is a mother – it would be one thing. But it always seems to combined with something stretched across her freakishly large derriere. And yet she doesn’t stop there…. she’s equally insistent on putting her back fat on display. I just do NOT understand this woman at all. And what the heck is going on with Khloe’s bottom teeth grill? Ewww. Just wwwww.

  32. Sayrah says:

    Just wondering if she owns a bra anymore.

  33. Justwastingtime says:

    After seeing a pic of Kloe without makeup recently, I realized just how much contouring makeup these women wear.. Kloe has a sort of pug nose, but when she is wearing makeup it’s really defined. Amazing on some level.

    • word says:

      Go on YouTube and you can view many videos of women doing their make-up using contouring techniques. The results are insane. It’s straight up trickery lol.

      • Justwastingtime says:

        I actually looked at the picture and pondered how great we would all look if we had someone “contour” us everyday. I assume that it only looks great when you know what you are doing.

    • Veronica says:

      Yeah, contouring is pretty incredible – it’s one of those things I think all women should watch a tutorial on just so they can realize how much smoke and mirrors goes into Hollywood. I like to contour my face slightly because I’m very fair and it keeps me from looking like a ghostly pancake in the winter, but I really don’t have the time or patience to do anything that extensive. I like highlighting the actual shape of my face, not morphing it into something completely different.

  34. Justwastingtime says:

    Also adding that I don’t think Kim’s clothes make her uncomfortable, she is not someone who is generally comfortable in her own skin. I am thinking about her dancing with the stars performance in particular but there are lots of other examples.

  35. Loren says:

    Kim’s stylist is a young Asian hipster girl… This explains everything.

  36. Veronica says:

    This is…actually not that bad, honestly. It’s pretty risque in the chest area, but she avoided the mistake of going for a high cut on the seam, so the length of the dress keeps it from going into club territory. What I don’t like about it is the depth of the slit – I think it stumpefies her to a certain extent, and it would be a touch more flattering if the V-cut hit higher.

    She needs to lay off the tanning bed, though. She’s practically neon here.

  37. Dawn says:

    Well she looks rather awful to me. I think her dress is the wrong fabric and it looks incredibly cheap and her shoes make her look like her legs look way too short for her head and butt. Kim normally looks tacky on a good day. This was NOT a good day for her. She must take hours to get that makeup done it is just so caked on and her hair looks greying in some shots. She may only be 34 but she looks so much older and so used up. Her eyes are always dead looking. I don’t understand why anyone would pay even $5.00 dollars to see her and her equally tacky family.

  38. Synon says:

    The Klassdashians have no class but this is a new low for Kim. She looks just about ready to be milked.

  39. Mrs. Wellen Melon says:

    Khloe, your skin and hair are gorgeous.

  40. Marybel says:

    Too bad gauche and douche don’t rhyme…I feel poetic.

  41. Martha says:

    Trashy without a doubt come on it’s like the older she gets the trashier, to them it might seem sexy it’s all about less is best just publicity to be in news there’s more important things in this world I never ever hear of them any of them doing any kind of charity work

  42. LAK says:

    Her body is sculpted by any means necessary and she takes care to always present her best sides, but she forgets her back. Her back always let’s her down.

  43. kitty-bye says:

    Ripped up toga 🙂

  44. LuluBelle says:

    What a dump!

  45. Katarina says:

    I actually really like this look on her. She looks good in white.
