Kim Kardashian in cobalt blue with Kanye at the Angel Ball: rough or pretty?

Here are some new photos of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at last night’s Angel Ball 2012 in New York City last night. Kanye took his girl to Italy for her 32nd birthday last week, and now they’re so “official” as a couple that they’re posing together on a red carpet. Is this the first time that’s happened? I think it might be. Although they’ve posed together outside of events before, obviously, I think this is the first time where they’ve gone to an event together and walked the red carpet as a couple at the same time. Which is notable, I suppose. Kanye loves that ass. Truly!

Should we talk about Kim’s dress? It’s awful. I hate nearly everything about this total look. The one thing I guess I’ll give her is that the blue looks nice with her coloring, but even then… I’m not a huge fan of cobalt blue. I love shades of blue, and if you want to rock some navy or turquoise or cornflower or sky blue, go ahead. But cobalt can often look very “cheap” I think. You have to know what you’re doing with cobalt. And I don’t think Kim knows what she’s doing. This dress has too much material and it adds weight on Kim. The sleeves are horrible. The plunging v-neck makes her bolt-ons look rigid, and the front slit is much too high. Add to all of that the horrible styling…ugh. That hairstyle is awful. I will say this, though: ‘Ye looks good in his tux!

Back to Kanye and how he feels about Kim… there are lots of rumors about Kanye perhaps proposing to Kim on or around her 32nd birthday. Even Ryan Seacrest suggested that Kim was “demanding” an engagement ring from Kanye, and that Kanye was going to propose for sure. While I don’t think Seacrest has any intuition when it comes to Kanye, Seacrest must be getting his tips from the Kardashians, and that means Team Kardashian is gearing up for another engagement.

    She looks great. One of her best looks.

    • Jill says:

      Really?! This look could work for Crystal Carrington not for her. She looks fat and heavy in this gown.

      • happycats says:

        +1 this x 1000 pounds!

      • fabgrrl says:

        :^) Totally. Except Linda Evans would still be awesome wearing this dress.

      • JH says:

        So unflattering. I do love the hair, though.

      • gogoGorilla says:

        +1

        It looks like she draped a sheer curtain around herself and belted it.

        Oh, I also love how she is trying to become The Leg. AS IF. Somewhere Angelina is probably laughing her ass off.

      • Really? says:

        GogoGorilla: “Somewhere Angelina is probably laughing her ass off.”

        You mean lauging her leg off!

        As for KW, he really leads with his chin, doesn’t he?

      • JudyK says:

        You guys aren’t going back far enough.

        That dress would have been suitable for Cleopatra.

        They are both UGLY, inside and out.

      • Dredz says:

        She looks like she’s drowning in blue fabric. Also, now her face looks like a freakish version of Kourtney’s

    • BB says:

      I agree. Kim looks fabulous! This is probably one of her best looks. I love the hair.

      • hello says:

        I lover her hair too! Although, she has put on weight and that dress isn’t doing her any favors. But, I think she has a really pretty face.

      • nikko says:

        I really like her hair. But I think she’s to short for the dress; the dress is more suited for a taller woman, Everything else about the dress is fine and color looks great on her.

      • gg says:

        ? Really? Her hair looks like she’s been drug backwards through a hedge!

    • Rachel says:

      I agree wholeheartedly with Kaiser on this one. There’s too much fabric. It makes her look heavier than she is. Especially in the hips. And those slits… ay yi yi. When will these celebrities learn that flashing a little leg can be sexy. Flashing your snackbox is just trashy. I don’t care who you are.

      • Minky says:

        Snackbox!! I love it!! Mind if I use that phrase?

        I agree. Way too much fabric, but I do like the color. I can’t with those shoes, though.

      • Rachel says:

        Please do. Happy to help.

      • alc says:

        I think what Kim needs more than a stylist is a tailor! Her clothes are always so ill-fitting. They are either so tight her boobs are crying for air or they are so big in the arms and too long that she looks like she is wearing her sister’s clothes, that would be Khloe. And as for Kanye and those pants – I hope he owns a couple pair because they must be a little, shall we say musty, because he wears them all the time. On second thought, maybe she’ll trip on her dress, hold on to Kanye fall into a river and just float away. I’d like that.

    • Really? says:

      GogoGorilla: “Somewhere Angelina is probably laughing her ass off.”

      You mean lauging her leg off!

    • GoGoGrammy says:

      You’re kidding right? She’s looking so “frumpy” lately. Her face looks elogated…the new inflated lips don’t work right when she speaks….they get in the way….her hair is a mess…the dress looks like she got it off some sale rack a size too big…and the whole look is just horrid. Who’s dressing her lately…that disaster she wore the other day with the ruffles in front…yikes…does she look in the mirror before she leaves the house. Oh, that’s right…that’s ALL she does is look in the mirror.

    • Jenny Kellstedt says:

      She looks absolutely awful why don’t these women with fake breasts get it? They look awful, and how can the men attracted be a good kind of man? It’s just so awful, these women parading these fakes around and the men acting they are real and they are so entranced…Really gives me the creeps.

    • Jenny Kellstedt says:

      I can’t believe how many of you think she looks great. Are you desperate for men, or what? She is totally botoxed and has an eternally fake tan, also fake boobs. Is THIS our ideal of a beautiful woman in the 20th century? I am glad to be a normal woman, which might become iconographic in the next century.

    • Jenny Kellstedt says:

      I think you are crazy, she is a botoxed, face-lifted mess, with many of her parts faux, implanted. Actually, I feel for her, as she will spend much $$$ over many years to keep up this appearance, and she was originally very pretty, naturally. Her mother is probably to blame, as she can’t stop with the plastic surgery.

    • Jenny Kellstedt says:

      She was a beautiful woman before she started on all this plastic surgery, but I doubt she will ever be able to return to the beauty she once was.

    • Lishka says:

      Jesus…where do you begin? Her hair looks like a good nest for some small creatures and what the **** is up with that dress? Matter of fact, has anyone else noticed that ever since Kanye started dressing her she has never looked so top heavy and bottom heavy…like…EVER?

      He really can’t pick a decent outfit to save her life! Its all gone to shit!

  2. roxy750 says:

    Ugh, these two are so showy. It’s all for photogs. Come on. But she does look good. Does this guy ever smile?

  3. len says:

    The hair does soften her face, it just would have looked beter with another outfit. Her clothes fit really badly these days. Her sleeves are often way to long and the excess material in the sleeves makes her bulky. God, she’s a bad dresser. She could look so much better.

    • bondbabe says:

      She dresses either: two-sizes too small or two-sizes too large. She needs to do a form-fitting on the top (but not TOO form-fitting) and flowy on the bottom combo.

      • Ashley says:

        +1 Bondbabe. She looks like she’s in a great shape, she needs to find a happy medium between “I’m drowning in fabric” and “I can’t feel my legs because these clothes are too tight”. You’re right, she would look fantastic in a slightly tighter top and flowy skirt! I do love that color on her though… It works great with her skin/hair color!

  4. virginia5 says:

    a) does kanye ever smile when he is with kim?

    b) I like the colour of the dress but that is about it.

    c) I find it sad the kim is 32 and she still posts pics of herself taking selfies.

  5. L says:

    God the excess material under her armpits just looks awful. She looks uncomfortable.

    The dress looks two sizes to large, which I guess is something coming from Kim K. Maybe she thought it was classier than wearing clothes 2 sizes to small?

    • sandy says:

      Personally, I think this dress looks way too big. I am also not crazy about the chunky shoe with the high slit on the dress.

  6. virginia5 says:

    a) does kanye ever smile when he is with kim?

    b) I like the colour of the dress but that is about it.

    c) I know this hasn’t got anything to do with this post, but I find it sad the kim is now 32 and she still posts pics of herself taking selfies.

  7. Riana says:

    Looks at first pic…

    Scrolls down slowly…

    Sighs.

    Hits back button.

  8. Rux says:

    The dress is not too bad; at least it’s not five sized too small.

    Her hair sucks.

  9. ladybert62 says:

    What a bad fitting dress – plus it looks trashy and cheap.

    Does these two EVER smile?

  10. PrettyTarheel says:

    Ok, again with the fit issues. This time, it’s the billowing fabric at the waistline. It doesn’t appear to be a style element. It’s as if Kanye convinced her to get the right size for her hips, and they didn’t take in the necessary places at the waist.

  11. DanaG says:

    It wasn’t just me then who hated this outfit? The dress is just ugly and tacky. But Kim loves tacky. The splits are way too high but I’m guessing Kanye likes easy access. Arent they waiting for Kim’s divorce to come through before they get engaged? Another Kardashian wedding special. I do hope the vendors who got sucked in and ripped off last time around don’t make the same stupid mistake. The Kardashians can afford to pay the full price and Kanye isn’t poor either. I hate the way the use people to get free stuff then demand more. What is up with Kim’s hair it looks messy I’ve seen horses better styled then this.

  12. Kimlee says:

    The dress is ugly and makes her look bigger and her hair is a mess.

  13. hoya_chick says:

    Can a person get engaged when they are still MARRIED, one wonders?

    • Nashville Girl says:

      You can…it’s just tacky.

    • Agnes says:

      i went to school with a woman who was married, engaged AND dating around. a true accomplishment.

    • Rumorhasit says:

      You would think she would bother to divorce her last husband, before lining up the next one, but no one ever accused Kim of being reasonable, or smart.

  14. MG says:

    Too much material!! From the waist down its ok. I hate it when guys don’t smile because they think they look sexier being tough or something. Ugh.

  15. tru tru says:

    The dress looks like some expensive drapes and the leg thing is tired.

    same old melting makeup plastic face.

    sighhh

    looks like she is wearing a lacefront wig, again.

  16. Micki says:

    I like the colour but think that more than one extra long slit cheapens every dress.

  17. Blue says:

    I swear every time I see a new picture of her she looks like a different person. I don’t know how anyone can buy them as a couple. Neither if them smile, the body language is off and I don’t feel/see the love or passion. Just so dull.

    • Emma says:

      That’s because it’s fake! The picture of them kissing looked so fake as if Kim is disgusted to put her lips on Kanye’s. The Ks have run out of ideas. Without the whole marriage and possible baby stories they have nothing left for her. But they’ve still managed to convince the public that they are in fact dating.

      • Jenny Kellstedt says:

        I was just sickened when Nicole Kidman got breast inplants, followed by Goldie Hawn’s daughter (and how important is she anymore?). It’s become endemic in Hollywood, and the few who don’t so are still regarded as serious actors, and they wear haute couture beautifully.

  18. Chicagogurl17 says:

    I don’t get it. It’s either painted on or she swimming in fabric in her armpits and crotch. Even cutting 6 inches off the length would have helped some. I like the color but the hair is a mess and the shoes look budget.

  19. JoJo says:

    For all her money, she still has absolutely no class or taste in clothes or men. And she is really looking more and more like her old hag pimp ho mother.

    • Taska says:

      I came in specifically to ask why she’s trying so hard to look/dress like her mother. I mean, this can’t be accidental, right?

  20. Jade says:

    What an unattractive couple – and not just on the outside…

  21. Agnes says:

    horrific pant/dress (?). i don’t get it, this woman has so much money – why not hire a stylist?

  22. Quinn Parker says:

    God, would someone please Flowers-in-the-Attic this trick so I don’t have to see her face fifty times a week???

  23. gloaming says:

    Such an absolute lack of chemistry between these two.

  24. fabgrrl says:

    Kim when we say “go up two sizes” that means go up up sequentially, ie. buy a size 8. It doesn’t mean you add a one in front of your current clothing size, ie. size 14.

  25. Joy says:

    It literally looks like she’s doing the walk of shame with that awful hairstyle. That dress looks like a discarded bedsheet, and those shoes remind me of hooves. Hot mess.

  26. Roxy says:

    Awful awful awful. Ugly huge billous dress. But she’s a big gal, maybe she needs all that fabric? That last pic shows how big she really is, wow. She’s really gotten big ya’ll…wow. Her hair makes her look old, like her roots look gray or something. The lighting doesn’t flatter her. But, the photogs don’t have much to work with here. I think pretty soon, the only reason they will even take her pic is to document her downfall and her fata**. Soon thereafter, they won’t take anymore pics, they won’t be able to give them away. She’s ova.

  27. Minnie says:

    Why DOES her taste suck so much? Didn’t she used to BE a stylist? (I know, for Paris Hilton, but still)

  28. HadleyB says:

    I think her boobs look good in this – for some reason they always look better braless. Odd. They look saggy with those too flimsy bras she likes to wear like she is a size 34B.

    But her heels are HIGH and we all know hes short, how is he towering over her? Tom Cruise shoes?

  29. Roxy says:

    Ok, does this guy even like her? Or is she just someone to get pictures with? I don’t get it. They really seem uncomfortable here. I don’t think they really like each other “that way”. It’s obvious. You don’t even notice him tho, she’s so BIG and BLUE! Jeez.

  30. Roxy says:

    I bet she makes him pee on her.

    • KellyinSeattle says:

      Hi Roxy 🙂
      Makes him? He probably revels in it. He is so cool and she is so multi-dimensional. No. The dress is too big but at least it’s not too tight this time. And everyone is right, he never smiles; he’s too cool, dont’cha know?

  31. India says:

    She is so contrived. Gross and Ugh.

  32. EmmaStoneWannabe says:

    They do not look happy. If you think she is close to smiling in some of these pics, you are fooled by (the pulled-back-ness of) her plasticity.

  33. Green_Eyes says:

    They Kimmie the 80’s called they want their Dallas meets Dynasty on the way to Knots Landing dress back! Funny I would think the color would at least be flattering.. But no it just makes her look so sallow, while the dress itself swallows her up… She really has no sense of style. Hard to believe she used to style others!

  34. judyjudy says:

    Why do they always look so miserable?

  35. Sassy says:

    Can’t stand these a$$holes. And Kim looks tacky – but what else is new?!

  36. Skins says:

    She really should not be making demands on him. If he dumps her (please, please, please Kanye) she is finished and will become the laughing stock she is meant to be. Also, she looks like she has put on about 50 pounds (mooooooooo!) Just don’t understand how any dude with any kind of talent would have anything to do with her.

  37. dcypher1 says:

    Her tits look saggy and she looks like shes wearing a robe.

  38. Jess says:

    Kim’s problem is she wears clothes that aren’t appropriate for her body type. Ths dress would look better on someone at least 6 inches taller. That’s why Kanye doesn’t know sh!t about fashion. Fit is the most important but he thinks he can pull runway model samples and throw it on Kim and it will look the same.

    • lw says:

      So very true. The color of the dress is fantastic for her, but she’s waaay too short to pull it off.

  39. Miss says:

    Am I missing something? Her hair is awful!

  40. Cathy says:

    Lordy that dress is horrible. The shoes are nasty to. If he’s choosing her clothes, he definately has no taste. She looks nasty.

  41. lizzi says:

    ugh, this heffa. Terrible dress. She can’t get fit right to save her life, always too baggy or too tight.

  42. ladybert62 says:

    I just really looked at her hair – what a mess. That is suppose to be a braid but it is all coming apart – at least when she wears it the usual way, it is brushed and neat. This style looks like she just climbed out of bed.

  43. mar says:

    Im mixed on this- it is so much material for such a short person, and she looks messy. At lease she doesn’t look like a sausage!

  44. dorothy says:

    Not relevant, not interesting, total fame whore. Move on to next person please.

  45. becks says:

    ugh….she looks fat and sloppy.

  46. Grace says:

    Wow this is awful. The color is pretty but her hair and makeup don’t work with it.
    Kanye designs as if he’s using a funhouse mirror and an 80’s Vogue magazine to dress Kim. The clothes are badly stitched, poor quality, and look as if they’re meant for someone much taller. Who is Kaye actually trying to dress here? *cough*AMBER*cough*

  47. tia says:

    What.the.hell.is.up.with.her.hair? And whyyyyyyyy can’t she wear classy heels?? Why pair those with a beautiful flowy dress?????????? HUH?

  48. Lemonade says:

    This looks very 80s to me..maybe its the shoulder pads and flowy sleeves. idk. not a fan of her recent fashion. Her hair seems like a rush job at braiding because there are flyaways everywhere. Kanye is no good for Kimmy style

  49. bagladey says:

    KK was in her (beauty and fashion) prime when she was with Reggie Bush; now she looks like an older woman next to Kanye.

  50. LG says:

    She looks obese… and its the dress, not her

  51. swack says:

    This is another epic fail. The dress has too much material and does not hang well on her. Her hair looks like she just got out of bed – messy.

  52. MsMileHigh says:

    Awful head to toe. The dress does not even come close to fitting properly. Her hair looks dirty and greasy. The nude lipstick is doing her no favors.

    Maybe if Kanye proposes, that would give her an incentive to finalize her divorce a little faster.

  53. hello says:

    I know this may be off topic..but, anyway..I LOVE to wear heels..I feel good when I wear them. But, IMO heels have gotten out of control..WTH, it’s getting to the point to where I can’t walk in them they are so high! I wish this trend would just stop…I’m so over the stripper shoes!! This just came to mind when I saw Kim’s shoes. They are beautiful but gosh they are sooooo high! Look at her foot…it’s like she is walking on her toes..looks painful

  54. neelyo says:

    Has any designer stepped forward to take the credit for this monstrosity. In that last picture she looks like a member of the Lollipop Guild.

    And is she going gray at the temples or is it the lighting?

  55. G says:

    Look up Kanye Amber Rose images you can clearly see the difference between a genuine couple and a stunt couple.

  56. Dawn says:

    I see nothing worth noting. Apparently they have a staff of 15 they travel with to make sure that the press knows where they are and what they are wearing at all time. It is my understanding that they both get their clothes for free from each designer just so they get some good press out of the two! They never look good let alone great, just off somehow. But then I am not a fan of the goddess of pee.

  57. Sweet Dee says:

    Kanye has such lovely skin, and blue looks good with her coloring.

    That’s all I can say that is nice.

  58. Jenn says:

    hmmm…kinda have to say that she looks like a very very pretty doll what with her flat expression and empty eyes…

  59. Madriani's Girl says:

    She’ll never learn, never be fashionable, never stop being a joke. That hair looks like it was combed with egg beaters and the “dress” looks more like a belted bathrobe.

  60. seVen says:

    I dunno if anyone has mentioned it… but doesn’t she sorta… need to get a divorce before she can marry ol chipmunk cheeks? Just sayin.

  61. Nkiru says:

    That dress is way to large. Like seriously, what is she trying to do? And i hear Kanye styles her now so i won’t b surprised if he picked that blunder of an outfit for her. If he’s trying to turn her into a Grand-Ma,he had better marry her ASAP. Love d shoes and d color though

  62. midnightmoon says:

    i cannot abide either one of them. i swore not to post again about the Karzombians again. can’t restrain myself: Kim, wear some damn COLOR on yo’ face if you’re gonna wear bright colors. geez louise, she looks like a CORPSE bride in those shots. unfixable, the two of them. he has no emotional resonance and she is a shapely wax statue. there is nothing to either of them, so i think they are a perfect match. i bet they check into matching closets, plug in, and wait for the next photo op in power-down mode. bllleeeegggghhhhh.

  63. xxx says:

    She has completely ruined her face sadly

  64. nikzilla37 says:

    she’s too short for a dress like this. And she paired with with stripper heels. Nice one, Kim.

  65. Jessica says:

    What is with her lately? She is on a string of bad, unflattering clothing choices. That dress looks horrible with her figure.

  66. Memibee says:

    Kim desperately needs a style intervention!

  67. the original bellaluna says:

    SUPREMELY UNFATTERING (typo, and it stays) DRESS!

    FUG shoes!

    Messy hair! There are strays and frizzies EVERYWHERE! (Looks sloppy for a red carpet, but I do like the unstructured-braid look.)

    I’d like to slap the smug off Kanye’s face.

    That is all.

  68. Cirque28 says:

    #3 photo: I love Kanye’s “about to slip into an angry coma” facial expression. He clearly thinks he’s bringing the SEXXXY there.

    And a big blue bathrobe. That is all.

  69. Mandy says:

    I’ll say something nice. It’s good to see Kanye wearing something that is not leather.

  70. Jaxx says:

    It looked much better when Scarlett yanked the curtains down to make her gown. She definitely had a better seamstress.

  71. Maritza says:

    That dress is awful! It makes her look fat and her hips much bigger. They both look so serious as if they probably had been fighting before they got there.

  72. Anon says:

    The dress is too big — too long, the sleeves are too long, the bust is too big. The two of them look like they just had an argument.

  73. Milk says:

    Like the color but thats about it. It’s too bulky in the wrong areas.
