Thrifty Khloe Kardashian recycles Kim's old Louis Vuitton bag... and she's got her sister's $1,695 Givenchy boots on too!

With a Louis Vuitton bag swinging ostentatiously from her arm, Khloe Kardashian looks pretty pleased with herself.
Perhaps she's congratulating herself on a bargain.
For big sister Kim was seen deciding to part with the very same bag in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians screened last August.
And with what appear to be Kim's Givenchy's $1,695 Shark Lock fold over wedge boots on her feet, Khloe had apparently scored a designer outfit for free.

Kim was first seen wearing the eye-catching boots when she visited Hawaii with Kanye in August.
But perhaps she decided they weren't to her taste after all.
It was a different case when it came to her Louis Vuitton bag.
Then Kim was seen trying to persuade her boyfriend to allow her to keep it allowing him to give her closet a makeover.
Proud of her bag: Khloe is not above accepting her sister's hand-me-downs

'It's a dog bag, no?' asked the stylist Kanye brought along to help.
But Kim didn't give up.
'Shouldn't I just keep this for, like, my daughter one day?' she asked Kanye. 
Cringingly he failed to appreciate her hints that they might one day have a family, instead remaining pointedly silent.

Of course his reticence was just for show - as a few short months later Kim is now pregnant with their first child.
And it seems she was also pretending when she agreed to get rid of the bag - which she appears to have thriftily handed onto her little sister.
Strong-willed Khloe certainly didn't seem put off by the 'dog's bag' comment, rocking the bag with a slick of red lipstick and a warm sweater as she arrived for her flight at LAX on Wednesday.

The mother-of-one wore a large green parka with a fur trim and leather sleeves and a pair of black leggings.
Like any new mother, the singer appeared to be tired and seemed eager to get back to her son.

Designer Eyeglass Frames - Fashion Sunglasses



Sunglasses are shades for the eyes that offer protection, better vision, comfort, or simply a chic look. They are different from spectacles which only function for people with disorders of vision. Sunglasses are more associated with fashion rather than function.

It's surmised that the idea of sunglasses took birth from the Roman Emperor Nero who loved to watch gladiator fights through emeralds and rubies. However the modern sunglasses took shape just in the 1940s where the movie pop fraternity has had a huge contribution in making them so popular. Nowadays, sunglasses are readily available in all perceivable colours, with a huge selection of rim and frame styles and protective enhancements.

The most famous classic style of sunglasses is the aviator. They have oval pear-shaped lenses which narrow towards the bridge of the nose. Early movies have stars flaunting their aviators with style. This style continues to be largely famous; regardless of the entry of polarized lenses, sports eyewear, wraparounds and clip-ons.

Polarized sunglasses offer protection from extreme solar glares from water and snow surfaces, beaches, and roads. They make use of the light polarization technology mastered by Edwin H. Land in 1936. Individuals who want to discard their spectacles for something trendier without compromising on their visual quality opt for prescriptive sunglasses. Sportspeople wear a different kind of polarized sunglasses that are mirrored on the outside that reflect light of various colors.

Whatever type of glasses one might be wearing can be changed into something radically different by attaching a pair of clip-ons. Clip-on sunglasses are a pair of lens readily available in a wide range of colors and features which may be attached onto an existing pair of glasses or perhaps a hat. Sunglasses are associated with fashion in a huge way and people like Britney Spears, Ivana Trump, Sophia Loren, and Linda Evans have their own lines of sunglasses. One could state that sunglasses are as much a part of the catwalk as they are of the street.

The supermodel proved that she is worthy of her wings as she put her all into the photo shoot for the lingerie giant, clambering around the yacht to try out different positions.
In between takes, Candice proved that she was no diva and simply hung out with everyone else, sitting crossed legged on deck and chatting away.
She added a denim shirt over her bikini at one point as she was getting windswept in the breeze, which kept blowing her blonde hair in different directions.

Candice’s two-pieces ranged from ultra-sexy to frilly and girly, but she expertly pulled off each one.
A black and metallic bikini was particularly racy, consisting of a halterneck top with silver trim and bottoms held together by three slim gold straps.
There was plenty of embellishment on the swimwear – one two-piece was metallic green while another was white and adorned with pink and green gems.

Plus Size Swimwear - Look Slimmer When You Wear It



When you put on the right plus size swimwear, you are able to really look slimmer than you are. With plus size swimwear, women who are a little overweight can look their best and still enjoy the hot summer weather. Wearing swimwear that is too small displays the bulges much more and makes them appear even bigger than they are. Plus size swimwear doesn't mean old-fashioned styles simply because plus size swimwear is available in all the most up-to-date fashions.

It's often difficult to find plus size swimwear when you visit a standard department store. All you can find on the racks are the tiny bikinis that most likely would not fit around your leg. You begin to ask yourself whether you are the only one that has this problem with the lack of plus size swimwear that is available.

There are specialty shops that do carry plus size swimwear lines for women. Because this is often a special line that the shop carries each year, it's very hard to uncover something unique. Most of the time, the swim wear is all the same color and style. And plus size swimwear might also be very expensive and this doesn't fit in your budget. A lot of ladies desire to find inexpensive plus size swimwear simply because they are buying it for a holiday and probably won't wear it that often when they return home.

One spot where you will simply be able to acquire cheap plus size swimwear is at the online retailers. These retailers don't carry an inventory and most of them do not have a bricks and mortar store. When you arrange an order for plus size swimwear, you can get it less costly simply because the retailer doesn't have to have as much mark up to make a profit. One benefit of ordering your plus size swimwear online is the wide variety you have to choose from.
