Kim Kardashian’s credit card earrings cause a stir
Ka-ching.
Kim Kardashian’s no stranger to racking up high bills at Balenciaga, her favorite fashion brand — and might’ve poked fun at that fact with her choice of accessories Tuesday.
Stepping out in NYC to promote Season 2 of Hulu’s “The Kardashians” on “Good Morning America,” the reality star rocked a pair of Balenciaga’s sold-out, sought-after credit card earrings.
While the style originally retailed for $425, these days, you’ll have to scour resale sites if you want a pair.
“kim k in a balenciaga credit card earring feels a little on the nose,” one fan tweeted, while another asked, “Are they contactless pay enabled? Does she tap to pay with her head at the payment terminal?”
Reminiscent of the high-end, ultra-exclusive American Express Black Card — but with Balenciaga branding, of course — the glossy square-shaped earrings hail from the house’s spring 2020 collection, which drew inspiration from corporate power dressing and included designer Demna’s own take on the Mastercard logo.
Kardashian, 41, wore the earrings as part of a full Balenciaga look that also included a black turtleneck with gloves, tiger-print “pantashoes” sunglasses and a furry Hourglass bag ($2,300).
Hopefully she doesn’t lose one of these earrings in the ocean, like she did with her diamonds.
