Kim Kardashian Style Essentials


A few days ago I did a post about Kim Kardashians style and in it I realised I'd basically outlined her style essentials so I decided to do another post to show you how you can get Kim Kardashian style essentials on the high street for less. In my post I showed you all four outfits which highlighted six main essentials:

1. The Floppy Sunhat (Outfit 1)
2. The Brightly coloured Bag (Outfit 2)
3. Big Earrings (Outfit 3)
4. Bright coloured Wedges (Outfit 3)
5. Mint Green Blazer (Outfit 4)
6. Killer Heels (All outfits)

So here they are for less:

1. Floppy Sunhat



River Island, 13

I chose this hat from River Island as it is slightly different to all the others I saw because as you can see it is open at the top. This is good in my opinion because it give you versatility with your hair, you can still but it up in a topknot or ponytail and wear this hat unlike with a full headed hat. This would be a perfect addition to the wardrobe of any readers from America or |Europe but unfortunately for us in the UK it will have to be saved for those very few summer days.


2. Brightly coloured Bag


Ted Baker at Asos, 35

Asos, 18

For the brightly coloured bag section of this post I decided to choose two bags, one shopper and one clutch because then there are day and night options for this style essential. But I have to say it is actually unbelievably hard to find a good quality brightly coloured bag for a reasonable price! No wonder Kims is a Hermes Berkin. Anyway, I love this bright orange one from Ted Baker, its very simple but stylish like a Hermes. Plus, orange is a summer and autumn colour so will carry you well through two seasons at least and then could be used in spring and winter to make a real statement so its a good price for a good investment.

Then for the clutch, also from Asos but its own brand this time and I think its gorgeous! Love the bright pink colour and would be perfect for a night out with the gold edging and good for any season because bright colours are always good for a night out.


3. Earrings

Earrings are also surprisingly hard to find exactly what you want on the Internet without taking hours because there are just so many, the ones I've chosen aren't like the round ones Kim is wearing though, I'm a fan of feather earrings so I chose these.


New Look, 3

Really like the two tone in the feathers and the extra gold feathers and diamontes make them perfect for a night out or even in the day with no other jewellery to make an impact, plus they are a very reasonable price so whats not to like?

4. Wedges

Aldo, 60


Aldo, 50

Now this time I chose two because I truly love them both! The first pair are swede which does make them abit more expensive but that fuchsia pink is gorgeous! Plus they have the concealed platform and wedge and would be perfect for days or nights.

The second pair are also amazing, they are ever so slightly cheaper but the print on them is great, I love how it looks a bit like splashed paint and has almost every colour you will ever wear in it. Both pairs are rather expensive but something I believe you would wear again and again so would be worth it!

5. Mint Green Blazer

Topshop, 65

I adore Kims mint blazer and I have to say this is the best I could find (if you find better please let me know!), its not as bright as hers but I love the tweed material and the effect that it has on the colour, so theres so many different shades in one jacket. Plus, the diagonal zip detailing means it would look great open or zipped up. And for us in  the UK it would be perfect all year round so a very good buy, worth that extra bit of money! 




6. Killer Heels

Now for this one is was just too hard! Everyone likes different heels, different styles, different heights, different colours and theres just too many gorgeous shoes to choose from so I decided that instead of trying to choose the top 2/3 in my opinion I'd just give you what I think are the best places to look and let you find the ones that are perfect for you!
