• In case you haven’t realized, Kim Kardashian does not swaddle her body in questionably fitting monochromatic garments for her own pleasure. “I dress for my man way more than for myself!” she admitted to Us Weekly. “He likes cool, drapey things. Very casual.” See? It’s all for the love of Kanye, girls. (Us Weekly)
• US Customs & Border Patrol is on a roll. In the past year, they’ve seized millions of dollars worth of counterfeit designer wares coming into the country from China, and it seems there’s no stopping them. WWD reports that last month, the bureau confiscated $14.1 million dollars worth of counterfeit Hermès wares in Los Angeles. Sounds like someone in customs is going to get a raise! (WWD)
•Kenzo has collaborated with Vans Authentic on a series of sneakers inspired by their Spring 2013 collection. The sweet kicks will be available for purchase March 15th at Kenzo stores, Kenzo.com and at select retail partners including Opening Ceremony, Colette, Lane Crawford and IT Hong Kong. I’m in love. Would you rock ‘em? (Fashion Bomb Inbox)
• Another high fashion heist has gone down in London this week, and this time, the target was Gucci’s Sloane Street flagship store. Three suspects made off with about 50 designer handbags, (worth over $600,000 altogether), but not before pulling into the shop in a black Mercedes-Benz, and making their getaway in a blue Audi A4. Any arrests have yet to be made, but I will say this might be one of the ballerific acts of thievery ever. Designer handbags and sexy cars to boot? Sounds more like a James Bond film than an actual crime! (BBC)
• No surprises here: Selena Gomez is cute as a button in Dolce& Gabbana on the cover of April’s Harper’s Bazaar. Will she ever not be adorable? (Styleite)
• A$AP Rocky covers the March 2013 issue of L’Uomo Vogue, lensed by Francesco Carrozini. Are you feeling this? (Fashion Bomb Inbox)

The purse is a dream . . . if only!
Kim dressing for Kanye . . . no surprise there!
Can they go away?!
March 7, 2013 3:40 pm
I don’t see the problem with Kim K. Don’t most women dress to impress their beau and vice versa? I love that my man makes an effort for me, it’s sweet! Also how cute is Selena?!
March 7, 2013 3:52 pm
yes indeed that robbery was ballerific….the get away car was a effing Audi…stealing is bad but damn…it sounds sexy. the perps probably dressed to kill
March 7, 2013 3:53 pm
@Genie Why should they go away? Kim has come a far way since her notorious tape and has managed to build herself a respectable business. And Kanye is arguably one of the best in his business; his Grammys can attest to that. Both have earned their celebrity, like it or not. If you don’t feel like reading about them maybe you should go away. Nobody’s forcing you to seek out a website that features them.

Clearly Kanye does not want anybody checking her out coz dayuumm that style is not for her body..drapping is not really for your body Kim (please someone tell her)…I love it when women dress for themselves though ..I feel like when u dress 4 u…u r comfortable and confident and therefore Hot…the minute u start to dress to impress-it can go two ways …it can be great or a Hot mess
March 7, 2013 4:09 pm
Love A$AP Rocky…looking good
March 7, 2013 4:10 pm
The thing with Kim is that.. she says things like “Im finally coming into my own fashionably” and “I feel my style has evolved” and all that crapped as if she’s had some sort of metamorphosis when actually, its just her man dressing her. Its once thing to dress for your man and its another thing to have ur man dress you.. she’s just annoying thats all.. call a thing a thing
March 7, 2013 4:29 pm
@Snailz said exactly what I was thinking!
March 7, 2013 4:36 pm
That mustce been one sexy heist at Gucci!
March 7, 2013 4:59 pm
“Sounds more like a James Bond film than an actual crime!” Took the words right out of my mouth.
March 7, 2013 5:03 pm
“Kim has managed to build herself a respectable business” is that so, whatever happened to the kardashian kredit card……anyhoooo good thing you didn’t say Kim has managed to build herself into a respectable businesswoman……carry on.
March 7, 2013 5:27 pm
Kim dressing for Kanye not news. She needs to dress for herself than maybe she would be more comfortable.
Counterfeit rings are getting busted left and right. Shoot people who buy it need to be fined.
Gucci getting robbed then leaving in Audi… Are we sure this isnt a movie. Sounds like a blockbuster action film.
March 7, 2013 7:21 pm
Most women dress to impress their man. If you know your man like a certain style naturally you’ll want to appeal to that. I just think she shouldn’t lose herself, you can incorporate new with old to flatter your figure.
March 7, 2013 7:25 pm
Kim is dumb as fuvk for dressing for kanye. What does he know? Did his women’s line not FLOPPPP?? Bye, silly bitch!!
March 7, 2013 7:36 pm
Kim’s throwing Kanye under the bus for getting slammed by fashion editors/critics all over. She’s entertaining. Like she don’t have mirrors.
March 7, 2013 9:04 pm
Love ASAP his swag and his music he’s a good looking guy to boot !!
March 7, 2013 9:08 pm
We all know Ms. Kendra West is a demanding diva, so I’m absolutely not surprised that Kenneth Kardashian dresses to please his woman smh
March 7, 2013 10:04 pm
Why do we care so much who this woman is dressing for that we were waiting on her to ‘admit’ it. I dress for my husband and he dresses for me sometimes. It’s just clothes people! Get over it.
March 7, 2013 10:30 pm
I would never “dress for my man”. The way I was when you met me is what attracted you to me…right or wrong? Therefore, changing my style to appease you is not an option. I dress for no one but myself, if my fashions make me happy than so be it. A spouse should embrace your look if not, then find another spouse. PERIOD. *drops mic*
March 8, 2013 2:12 am
Well duh kim
March 8, 2013 3:17 am
aww danielle is a kardashian lover. chillax girl!
March 8, 2013 8:32 am
I think we all figured that about Kim and Kanye! lol
March 8, 2013 10:04 am
Still waiting for the ball to drop on this whole Kim and Kanye fiasco. I don’t know about yall but i’m not buying it! And truth be told, I despise Kim Kardashian as a person (she’s just not my cup of tea) but i’d be lyinng if I said I haven’t always admired her style……until Kanye came into the picture. Ughhh
March 8, 2013 12:16 pm
Kanye seems to be such an ego maniac. Looking from the outside, I am pretty sure that he is prob a control freak with his women. Yes, we love to dress for the men we love, but I bet he even picks out her shoes and accessoires. IMO, thats a lil overboard. I wouldn’t be surprised if down the line she started to feel smothered in the relationship and bounces. I am a Kim K fan as far as fashion.
March 8, 2013 7:17 pm
@lola Kendra west demanding diva ?! I just got my life
March 8, 2013 11:58 pm
@Lola Lmao at Kenneth Kardashian dressing for his woman, I live to read your comments lol
March 9, 2013 4:24 pm
Yes pink shimmer! Yesssss! Well said.
March 9, 2013 6:48 pm
Most of the top designer stores in London have security at the entrance or in the store itself (at least they did when I was there last year) so wondering what happened that they easily got away…(unless they were armed too)…???
March 10, 2013 12:56 am
if any man buys me Givenchy ill wear it
