Kim Kardashian Flaunts Post-Baby Weight Loss Fashion, But Clashes With Kanye West Over His Style Amid Divorce Rumors

Kim Kardashian is earning wows for her weight loss when it comes to her post-baby body. Shedding those post-pregnancy pounds isn’t easy, but the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, for the second time, has succeeded in slimming down after welcoming her baby into the world. Now the 36-year-old mom of North and Saint is rocking her weight loss style.

When it comes to her clothing choices, however, is the reality TV star sporting the fashions that her own husband, Kanye West, has crafted or shunning them? In the months since their son Saint was born, Kardashian has adapted her own mom-of-two body uniform that combines a big fur coat with a bodysuit, reported People.

During her pregnancy, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star was known for wearing comfortably loose jackets coupled with comfy frocks. But now that Saint has entered the world, she’s welcoming fur coats that top her beloved unitards.

For example, Kardashian recently flaunted her success in restoring her pre-baby body by sporting a black bodysuit. And in true KUWTK style, she added on a graffiti-covered brown fur. Another favorite outfit combined a unitard in flesh tones topped with a jacket in military green. Has spandex sportswear replaced the LBD (Little Black Dress) as a wardrobe essential?

Now that Kanye is known as a fashion designer as well as a rapper, his wife is faced with a decision about whether to wear only her husband’s designs or to mix and match (or totally shun). The answer? The reality TV star is staying true to herself by occasionally sporting one of the Yeezy Season 3 bodysuits as well as her own designer decisions, reported Hollywood Life.

For example, Kim slipped into a nude-toned one-piece but chose a cargo jacket to cover up. For pumps, she went with transparent PVC shoes.

However, when it comes to important occasions such as the Met Gala, the reality TV star is refusing to allow West to make her fashion decisions, an insider revealed to Radar.

The couple reportedly has been having marriage problems for months, and now the subject of style has turned into a bitter battle. For years, Kardashian has allowed her husband to choose her Met Gala style. The highly publicized event, known for its parade of celebrity fashions, has caused some wardrobe misery for the reality TV star as a result.

“Kim doesn’t want to do anything risky. She wants to wear something classic and elegant. Nothing like that floral print dress Kanye persuaded her to wear in 2013,” shared the insider.

The Met Gala theme this year is “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology.” West feels it’s a dream situation for his vision.

“Kanye thinks he can totally push the envelope and have Kim in something very avant garde and unique,” added the insider. “The theme plays to Kanye’s strengths as a fashion designer, and it’s very frustrating that Kim isn’t falling in line.”

Moreover, added the source, West is outspoken about what his wife wears and is extremely critical when he disagrees with her choices.

“Kanye is very vocal about Kim’s fashion choices and is hyper-critical when he doesn’t agree with how she is presenting herself. They are fighting non-stop over this, and it has just gotten ridiculous.”

The Vogue 2015 Met Gala Special Edition issue starred celebrities ranging from Beyonce to Kendall Jenner to Lady Gaga. Not on the list: Kardashian.

With her success in shedding those post-baby pounds, this year offers a chance for the KUWTK star to flaunt her weight loss success, but she’ll have to fight her husband to make her own style decisions.

As for how Kardashian took off the pounds? The reality TV star credits a high-protein weight loss diet, according to the Daily Mail.

The mom of two chose the low-carb Atkins weight loss diet, and researchers recently discovered that consuming protein actually boosts weight loss.

The weight loss study was conducted by scientists at Purdue University, Indiana. Based on the results of that study, lead study author Dr. Richard Mattes explained that because protein helps dieters feel full, it helps make the weight loss process more successful.

“A good deal of evidence suggests that protein activates satiety hormone release and so should be most strongly tied with fullness ratings,” added Mattes.

The next step in weight loss research is to evaluate long-term protein intake.

“Though this study did not specifically evaluate dieters, feeling fuller could help reduce food intake, an important factor when dieting,” pointed out Mattes. “If these effects are sustained over the long-term – and our study only looked at short-term effects – increased protein intake may aid in the loss or maintenance of body weight.”
