Washington: Kim Kardashian has once again proved that her beach style is never complete without a touch of luxury. The reality TV star's latest tropical getaway with British Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton and her family has become a fashion talking point, with her signature combination of micro bikinis, layered jewelery and glamorous accessories stealing the spotlight.
Kim's formula: Minimal bikini, maximum jewellery.
Kim Kardashian's love for pairing swimwear with statement jewelery continues to grow stronger. During her recent holiday, she shared a series of pictures on Instagram, captioning them, “Somewhere over the rainbow.”

Body jewelery becomes Kim's signature style

Y2K belly chain trend makes a comeback
Kim played a major role in bringing back the Y2K-inspired belly chain trend. In 2023, she shared pictures wearing a tiny black bikini paired with a delicate gold chain around her waist along with anklets.
Instead of keeping accessories minimal, Kim embraced a maximalist approach by layering different pieces to create a bold yet stylish look.
Anklets remain Kim's favorite accessory
Kim Kardashian's obsession with anklets has remained consistent over the years. In 2023, she paired a silver anklet with a bikini during a swimwear shoot and later styled diamond anklets with belly chains and high-slit outfits.
Even in 2024, during her Turks and Caicos holiday, Kim continued the trend by adding anklets to her beach looks.
In 2025, she took the trend further by wearing colorful sapphire and diamond anklets during a vacation. The jewelery pieces reportedly became the highlight of her outfit.

Swimwear as a fashion statement
What makes Kim Kardashian's beach style unique is that she does not treat a bikini as a standalone outfit. For her, swimwear works as a base layer, while accessories create the final look.
Chains around the waist, jewelery around the ankles, flowing sarongs and luxury details transform a simple bikini into a complete fashion statement.
Her style blends early-2000s nostalgia with modern luxury, creating a signature look that continues to influence fashion trends worldwide.
