The Strict Office Dress Code Kim Kardashian Maintains For Her Employees

When Kim Kardashian invited radio host Angie Martinez into her branding office for an interview on Martinez's "IRL"podcast , the first observation made was naturally about the neutral color palette in the space. Kardashian, 42, explained that the light, minimalist tones make her feel zen, reflecting the same decor she maintains at home . Kardashian's own wardrobe, curated with the help of Dani Levi , mirrors the shades she incorporates into her Skims line - onyx, charcoal, cocoa, umber, clay, and sand, to name several that are offered for her bestsellers. It's no surprise that her employees dress the same way. "I have uniforms," she told Martinez during their chat. "Well, it's not like, 'Hey, this is your uniform.' It's just color palettes. I have a handbook. Grays, heather gray, black, navy, white, cream, khaki. I mean, we can stick with all neutrals. And not a lot of colorblocking." Kardashian went on to explain that her ...

For that more formal occasion, she chose a glittering Gucci maxi with a high neck, bishop sleeves, and a green bird print - fitting, since she set this year's theme as " Hummingbird Christmas " to pay homage to one of the songs she wrote for her upcoming album "This Is Me . . . Now." The first gown, which, she wrote, she'd kept in her closet for a year, was styled with a high ponytail, crystal earrings, and a sweep of green eyeshadow.

Tatyana Ali Talks "RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race" & '90s Fashion Trends

For those of us who remember watching "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" during its original six-season run from 1990 to 1996, Tatyana Ali is an undisputed '90s fashion icon.

After the show ended, Ali enjoyed a successful music career - releasing hits like "Daydreamin'" and "Everytime" - before returning to her acting roots. She's since become somewhat of a Christmas-movie queen, starring in Hallmark and Lifetime films such as "Dear Secret Santa," "Jingle Belle," and "Christmas Everlasting."

See Harry Styles's Fashion Evolution, From 1D Polo Shirts to Feather Boas

Harry Styles 's style might be making headlines now every time he walks out his front door, but that wasn't always the case. In fact, when he first emerged into the public eye, his look was anything but unique. Almost 15 years ago, walking the red carpet with his One Direction band members, he was just another teenager in a polo shirt and jeans, styled with a pair of basketball-style sneakers. Harry Styles's outfits revolved around a hoodie sweatshirt, joggers, and graphic tees like most boys his age. Today, Harry Styles's fashion is lauded as much as his musical talents. Partnering with brands like Gucci , wearing pieces considered traditionally feminine , and opting for '70s-inspired tailored menswear , Styles is one of the most celebrated dressers on the red carpet. And Harry Styles's street style is just as interesting. For outings around Los Angeles, for example, he often reaches for a stylish everyday uniform. He'll pair skinny jeans with a printed...
