The only thing that Kim Kardashian may love more than Kanye West, her daughter North West, and Instagram selfies is her black leather blazer.
The newly married reality star, 33, has made the gold-buttoned lapeled piece by Balmain a staple in her wardrobe, wearing it repeatedly in recent weeks.
On Tuesday, March 11, Kardashian broke out the blazer at Miami’s airport with her sister, Khloe Kardashian. She paired it with a plunging navy blue dress with gathered seams, gold ankle-strap heels, and a pair of black aviator sunglasses. Two days later, she wore the jacket again, this time with a more casual look. The versatile blazer paired well with a relaxed white V-neck T-shirt, cropped skinny jeans, and the same pair of gold heels.
Two weeks later, on Tuesday, March 25, the blazer made an appearance in New York City. Kardashian strolled with West, 36, wearing it with another pair of black sunglasses, a heather grey V-neck T-shirt, and grey jeans. Kardashian and her Balmain buddy then returned to Los Angeles in May. She threw the leather piece on over a black V-neck T-shirt, which was tucked into a pair of high-waisted pants.

The blazer then went international, traveling with Kardashian and West to Prague after their Italian wedding in late May. The newly christened Mrs. West wore it with black leather pants and an oversized red printed scarf in the Czech Republic city on May 30. Because she couldn’t have returned to the states in anything else, the married woman arrived at Los Angeles International Airport in the jacket on Sunday, June 1, pairing it with another V-neck and black pants.
