The Stylist Needs a Stylist?


If anyone didn't know Kim Kardashian used to be employed as a "stylist" with clients like Brandy Norwood and some of her other celebrity friends. What I now find interesting is that the stylist has a stylist. Does that bother anyone? Not so much that it bothers me but it leads me to ask the question why would a stylist need a stylist?

If she was a stylist by trade, one can only assume that she has style. So why would she need anyone to tell her what to wear? It is my understanding that a stylist in many cases gives you a sense of style and guides your shopping experience. I could be wrong, but that's my understanding.

I honestly don't think her style has changed since she proverbially hit the scene. However that is just my opinion. Maybe she has a stylist since she makes so many public appearances but I really don't think its that necessary in her case. She has access to any fashion house and can buy and/or borrow anything that she wants.

What do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

**sidebar** I don't like the shoes or the skirt in the picture above...ok carry on.

Tall or short; thick or thin; rich or poor, there are key items that every woman should have in her closet. The fashion guru himself Tim Gunn (made famous by Project Runway) has come up with a list of 10 key items that every woman needs. Make sure you watch his show Tim Gunn Guide To Style on Bravo. (Check your local listing for show times)


  1. Basic Black Dress

  2. Trench Coat

  3. Dress Pant

  4. Classic Shirt

  5. Jeans

  6. Any Occasion Top

  7. Skirt

  8. Day Dress

  9. Jacket

  10. Sweat Suit Alternative

Take this list and compare it with your own closet. See which items you have and which items you don't. For items that you do have, make sure you try them on they have the best fit and are up to date. You may find that you need to audit your closet and replace some of the key items you already have.
