Kim K Was Robbed But Stole The Show

The shows at Paris Fashion Week  (October 1-5) are complete eye candy. From the fizz-bomb fabrics at Valentino, milkmaid vibes at Alexander McQueen, and an array of pink frocks in “heart lolly” hues, it’s like a bag of colourful bonbonerie has spilled across the city.

Whether you take cues from the celebrity front row, catwalk shows, or army of bloggers, it seems minimalism might be on the way out (for a moment) in the world of haute couture.

While we’re likely to see frou-frou frills in high street shop windows this summer, PFW beauty looks were low-key and subdued.”No makeup”, “natural beauty”, “tomboy” were the buzzwords backstage from the makeup artists.

To bolster this idea, Kim Kardashian busted out her bare décolletage and makeup-free face over several social media blasts, sitting front and centre at the Balenciaga show.

So, despite being a self-confessed contouring queen, it seems her beauty is radiant and natural. Natural, like the $4 million, 20 carat diamond knuckle duster she sported an Instagram selfie (September 29) and radiant like the gold rope necklaces she layered over her white dress at an event on Oct 2.

From her makeup-free face at Balenciaga, to being heisted for her jewels in her Paris apartment, Kim Kardashian stole PFW. Twice.

It’s no secret: Kim loves to festoon her features (including teeth) with precious elements. Some Netizens are slamming her for “oversharing” that wealth, claiming her constant posing and posting make her an easy target for robbery.

She and her family are reportedly unharmed from the robbery. However, if the incident has rattled her, she could consider taking a break from her usual heavy rocks, and harness that hankering for high end luxury beneath her skin.

Skincare made from deluxe ingredients is on the rise – the heart melting textures, divine but natural scents, and visual effect on the skin make this trend understandably irresistible. These items make decadent gifts and glowing “bathroom” selfie fodder, minus any obvious bling-bling.

Cosmeceutical brand Dr Aspect has released a range of skincare containing gold, we love the idea eye cream in particular (no styes here!)

Susie Sierra’s Gold Serums, contain gold leaf particles that lend skin an incandescent glow.

Payot has released a brightening collection, its key serum contains liquid pearls.

And Phytomer has recently released Designer Contouring Emulsion with its crystal particles, illuminates contours making it a perfect partner for a star like Kim, renowned for revealing a little cheeky skin!
