Kim Kardashian West Wore Skinny Jeans and Chaps on the Red Carpet
Just when you think you've seen it all in terms of red carpet looks, Kim Kardashian West throws us for a loop. For starters, her newest outfit caught our eye because she's not usually big on wearing jeans. If she's not in dresses or skirts, she prefers leggings, bike shorts, and sweatpants (preferably all Yeezy, of course). But when Kim K. tries something, she goes all-out.
Attending the WSJ. Magazine 2019 Innovator Awards in New York City, Kardashian West wore ultra-tight skinny jeans under leather chaps—or were they leather boots? Hard to say, really. She committed to the denim theme with a corset-like top boasting puff sleeves. Sadly, Kanye West didn't pull a Britney-and-Justin moment and wear coordinating denim—instead, he complemented her outfit with a sharp navy suit. Scroll down to see their newest red carpet look, and shop our favorite skinny jeans.

Next, Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, and Lisa Kudrow just reunited on the red carpet.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
