Kim Kardashian Leans Into Barbiecore With Pink String Bikini Pics
Barbiecore summer is going strong, with the movie a month away from release and celebs really embracing pink. Kim Kardashian is the latest to jump on the trend, posting bikini pics in a pink string two-piece from her SKIMS line on her Instagram yesterday. “pinky swear ?!” Kardashian wrote. More than 2.4 million people liked the shots of Kardashian posing poolside. The bathing suit is still available but almost sold out:
Kardashian’s bathing suit pics aren’t the only thing getting the reality star media attention today. Her comments on The Kardashians‘ latest episode about what the single star likes most in men also made headlines.
“Teeth are, like, one of my biggest turn-ons,” she said in a confessional, per Page Six. “The straighter, the hornier I’ll get. Just kidding, but not kidding,” she finished with a laugh.
Other qualities she looks for, Kardishian told her friends on camera, is a “calm” man with “good hygiene” and “no mom or dad issues” who will “protect” and “fight for” her.
He should be “supportive, genuinely happy for [me and] successful,” she said, in addition to “spontaneous, fun” and a good “role model” for her children.
In a comment seemingly alluding to her ex-husband Kanye West’s drama, Kardashian added she’s seeking out someone with “no heavy baggage, I have enough. Taller than me, someone that loves to work out, a motivated person, an independent person that’s not clingy, and someone with good taste.”
