Kim before Kanye

Look, we've all made jokes about Kanye taking full control of Kim's wardrobe, but the man has a point. She may now be the darling of the fashion world, and even her daughter has a stylist, plus she's best friends with Karl Lagerfeld and Carine Roitfeld, but there was a time when Kim had absolutely no clue about clothes and accessories. That time is not as long ago as you might think and even though most of those photos are neatly archived, The Internet does not forget and everything shows up at some time or another.

This past week an article reared its head with fairly shocking pictures of Kim on red carpets, clad in such disgusting outfits that our eyes began to bleed directly. Something went incredibly wrong with her walk-in closet during 2005 and 2006. The clothes that came out of it were an absolute drama, but the combinations were even worse. Kim obviously had a thing for trousers tucked in boots, and for bags and shoes that matched exactly, for sunglasses with light glass and belts pulled tightly around her waist. Kim has never been a poor girl so how this actually happened is anyone's guess. Nice that she has Balmain and Givenchy on speed dial these days, but Kim we know where you come from. And we'll always know. Mwahahahahaha!
