          <p><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-divorce-from-kanye-west" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kim Kardashian</a> redefined our understanding of celebrity status. Kardashian's impact and influence is heavily-embedded in our popular culture today; from her iconic red carpet Herv&eacute; Leg&eacute;r dresses, to duck face selfies, to the endless sister banter on the now-iconic reality show <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-love-story-timeline" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Keeping Up With The Kardashians</em> </a>that propelled the Kardashian-Jenner <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/how-kardashian-jenner-family-control-leaks-gossip-friends-press" target="_blank" rel="noopener"></a>clan into stardom.</p>
          <p>Her everchanging style choices from early 2000s low-rise looks to neutral-toned Yeezy bodysuits merits Kardashian a trendsetter title. Her epynomous shapewear brand Skims, that was once met with public scrutiny for its original name "Kimono," became the <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/fashion/fashion-historyf-olympic-uniforms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official underwear of the United States Olympic team </a>during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Numerous speculations surrounding Kardashian allegedly undergoing cosmetic procedures warranted the launch of her namesake beauty brand KKW beauty featuring contouring and highlighting products, turning public perusal into power. In 2019, Kardashian announced that she would attend law school, while raising her four children and juggling her unconventional work life. Currently, Kardashian is on her second year of law school and is working as an apprentice for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-van-jones-dating-rumors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN's Van Jones' law firm</a>.</p>
          <p>One might even say Kardashian has been it all&mdash;from a celebrity stylist to a reality star, a business-savvy entrepreneur to a social justice advocate, it's no surprise why the world sees Kardashian in a new light. As we celebrate her 41st birthday, <em>L'OFFCIEL</em> rounds up Kim Kardashian's seven most iconic moments that made the Internet rethink what we know about the star.</p>
