Kim Kardashian's Kanye West style-over

Kim Kardashian hasn't always been so fashion, daaaaarhling. Prior to dating Kanye West Kim's fave outfits consisted of lots of stretchy fabrics, golden granny jackets and tea cosy hats. Don't believe us? Check out our pre and post-Kanye gallery below...

Back in 2007 Kim Kardashian believed that a stretchy lurex t-shirt dress and white dress-up boots would help her conquer the world

Sexy secretary, anyone? Kim brought office, ahem, chic to the red/green carpet back in 2007. Did it work? Did it heck

Hey, she's a reality TV star! Of course she has to have a velour tracksuit in her closet, no matter how gross it looks

Did Kim do a raid on her mum's closet? That golden draped jacket doesn't belong to someone under thirty, surely

Kim finally got it right in 2010 when she attended a make up event in New York wearing a stunning assymetric coral dress that skimmed her bod perfectly. The OTT extensions were swept up into a chic 'do and make up flawless

This frock is perfect if you're constantly looking at your watch. No need to pull up a sleeve if you put it on a sleeveless wrist! Well, that's the only plus we can see from wearing this dress

During the Kris Humphries months Kim was very partial to a bubble hemmed skirt. Cute, yes, but a little boring after the 10th one

Yep, when you start dressing like your mum, no matter how stylish your mum might be for her age, it's time to re-evaluate

In 2011 Kim opted for a fierce animal print number for the launch of her Kardashian Kollection in Sears. Though the jumpsuit isn't all that bad, her cheap shoe-boots and OTT extensions give the overall look a feel of cheap

Oh, and look who it is at the very same launch also wearing leopard print! Remember what we said earlier?

Ah, now THAT'S better! Kim was snapped shopping in LA wearing this printed mini and espadrilles last year. The cute belt, matching clutch and chunky bangles all work brilliantly

Hmm, flared distressed jeans with a baggy satin blouse and tea cosy hat do not a hot Kim make

Woof woof!

This oversized houndstooth dress is very Lady GaGa but on Kim, it looks a tad motherly. Perhaps it's the wraparound shape?

Oh haiiii MUM. Again

Yeah, the monochrome dress is YSL but that means nada to us because this outfit if pure Kris Jenner. Once again we must say, RE-EVALUATE!

Well hellooooo style mama!

One of Kim's early outings with her new boyfriend Kanye West. What a difference a stylish boyf makes! The brunette swapped bubble skirts for cool leather trews, lustworthy Christian Louboutins and a laidback marl sweater for a stroll around NYC

For an appearance at an awards bash in London Kim stepped out in an elegant floor length navy dress with simple spaghetti straps and loose hair

Kim's London look just kept on getting better and better. This cut-out Stella McCartney dress showed off her hot bod but was fashion enough to keep from being too much. Great with the loose, sans extensions locks too

We can see where Kim/Kanye was going with this - feirce Balmain gladiator - but those awful satin calf boots look like something from Kim's 2007 wardrobe

Simply stunning in mustard Elie Saab at an event. The movie star locks and statement lips finish this Grecian goddess look perfectly

Minus the cankle-inducing calf boots, this military look is spot on. See, even momager Kris Jenner has taken inspiration and is wearing a little army-chic coat!

No, it might not be our choice of a runaround look, but on Kim this pale 'n' pretty outfit worked a treat

This monochrome (what else?) Stephane Rolland dress with its giant white flower motif divided opinion. Was it a bit too fashion for this Kardashian? We say no! This dress worked perfectly on Kim's figure, and her pared down make up and simple pony kept all eyes firmly on the dress

Or hot down those trousers, more like! We wouldn't normally wear leather jogging pants for a stroll around the city in summer but hey, we're not post-Kanye Kim

Kim's new monochrome palette is now well in place. This Celine outfit looked great when Kim hung out with Kanye at his gig recently. And look at her hair! How au naturel is it looking nowadays? Kanye must have secretly ditched her weave

We know these Givenchy's boots are totally OTM but that doesn't mean we have to like them. They make even the slimmest legs look huge! Not a great look. Kim's dress, however, is gorgeous

For her latest fragrance launch Kim chose a structured black dress by design legend Tom Ford teamed with a giant metal belt. Slick, smart and so fashion, Kim has come a long way since golden draped jackets
