Kim Kardashian shared another throwback from her younger days, which was from her 1990s era. 1993, to be exact! The beauty of these Instagram and social media posts is that we get to see how Kim was before her fame and how she was only dreaming of being a household name.
Kim's dreams were fulfilled as she worked her way up from being a celebrity organizer and stylist to becoming the face of a media empire and launching her beauty and fashion companies. SKIMS alone is worth $4 billion, thanks to its innovative fabric and for reshaping the industry. She also graduated from her law program and is on her way to becoming an attorney.
In her May 29 Instagram upload, Kim smiles for the camera as she buffs her nails. Her outfit is simple yet stylish: a blue oversized sweatshirt over a white T-shirt. Kim's long black hair cascades over her shoulder. At thirteen, she knew how to put on a look effortlessly and had no pressure from the online world on how she should look or conform to society, simply because social media didn't exist in 1993. Life was even more relaxed and toned down.
"1993 📷 by Linds," Kim puts in for the caption.
Several comments, including Kim's close friend Olivia Pierson, stated that Chicago West is her mother's twin. A few others voiced that Kim's eldest daughter and child, North, resembled the mogul. We say it's both, as Kim's features and personally, course strongly through these girls. After all, Chicago and North, as well as her sons, Saint and Psalm, are reflections of their mother.
Rewinding back to some of Kim Kardashian's iconic 1990s moments
As a teenager growing up in the last decade of the 20th century, Kim sampled the best the 90s had to offer- the shopping malls, the clothes, and witnessing the OJ Simpson trial in real time, as her father, the late Robert Kardashian, was a member of Simpson's 'Dream Team."
The SKIMS founder had plenty of memories since, and we're revisiting some of them with a few of Kim's Instagram posts.
Like all teenagers in the 1990s, we preyed on shopping malls. They weren't just a place to try and buy the latest trends a la Clueless, but to socialize and grab a bite at the trafficked food courts, where second-class eateries reigned over hungry shoppers.
An added perk at the mall was the photo booth as you know, smartphones were years away, so Kim had to make due with her early selfie game. The results are incredible, as the tiny print unveiled a smiling, carefree young woman.
Khloé was correct in her prediction that when Kim grew up, she'd be very pretty and famous. In this home video, the Khloud Food founder films her older sister as if she does it every day. Kim agrees with Khloé, and many years later, she's one of the world's most famous women.
The same could be said about Khloé.
In 1996, Kim took on the role of babysitter for her younger sister, Kendall Jenner, who was under one in this photo. Notice how Kim was setting up the style sheet and living it up as a 90s poster child in her feathery updp, aqua top, anddark makeup?
Plus, that 35 mm film camera truly brings the snap all together.
It's not quite the 1990s yet in this throwback, but close enough as it's the mid-1980s, and who could resist Kim and Kourtney dressing in identical outfits? The sisters stand next to their dad, who's enjoying a glass of red wine.
It's worth mentioning that Robert was a significant influence in Kim's law school journey and how she pushed herself for six years to her accomplishment.
