Kim Kardashian West covers Allure Magazine’s Special Issue

Kim Kardashian West is on the cover of Allure magazine’s special issue Best of Beauty. Kim opens up to the magazine as she speaks on Motherhood, her empire, and Life after the Paris robbery.

Read excerpts below:

On how she and Kanye West keep grounded: We don’t do gifts. We talk about it all the time, about not getting too much and trying to be as grounded and well-rounded as possible. I don’t like presents anymore. We just did absolutely nothing [for our anniversary]. We spent two days in Santa Barbara, and we slept…You know what? I think we went to IHOP. That’s what we did.

On stripping down for photo shoots: I’m like, I’m going to tone it down. But then I’m like, Wait, I can’t be doing it in 10 years, so—I might as well. I don’t know what the age cutoff is.

On the gift North West gave her after her Paris robbery: She gave me a little plastic treasure box, and she put her little jewels in it—like fake little plastic jewels—and she was like, ‘Mommy, this will keep you safe when you go to Paris.’ To have something really sweet like that is more important to me than all the jewelry.
