Kim Kardashian Soaks Up The Sun In Tiny Leopard Bikini

Kim Kardashian is back on timelines everywhere, thanks to a fan account that decided to reshare one of her poolside selfies. The photo, which quickly began circulating again online, shows the reality star lounging in the sun in a barely-there leopard print bikini. In the snap, Kim reclines on a cushioned lounge chair, soaking up the sunlight in a triangle-cut leopard two-piece. Oversized black sunglasses cover her eyes as she angles the camera above her, capturing the ultimate sun-drenched selfie.

Even though the image didn’t come directly from Kim’s own account this time, fans showed up fast. Heart eyes, fire emojis, and praise-filled comments flooded the repost within hours.

While bikini photos of Kim continue to circulate online, the reality star has previously admitted that she doesn’t feel the same urge to constantly document every sun-soaked moment.

Back in 2019, as she stepped deeper into her roles as a criminal justice advocate, mother of four, and aspiring lawyer, Kim opened up about entering a different chapter of her life.

“I guess I just don’t care as much anymore to want to take tons of photos in a thong bikini,” Kim said in an interview with New York magazine at the time, reflecting on the previous decade. “I think I’m evolving to where I don’t feel the need to want to keep up.”

Instead of curating every vacation shot, she explained that she’d rather be present. “I actually just want to lay out. I don’t care to take the time out of my day on vacation like I used to, where I’d pull up to the house and I’d see, ‘This is a setup, this is an Instagram pic. Now this is a different setup,'” Kim said. “Now I’m just like, ‘Let’s actually live in real time and enjoy it. If we happen to get a photo, great.'”

That evolution also came from a very real mom moment. Kim admitted she had what she described as an “awakening” when she realized how difficult it was to casually scroll through Instagram around her kids. “I realized I could not even scroll through Instagram in front of my kids without full nudity coming up on my feed pretty much all the time,” she said.

It became a moment of perspective for her.

The nonstop flood of revealing content, including some of her own past posts, started to feel different. As her focus shifted toward motherhood and her broader goals, so did the way she approached social media and what she wanted her presence online to reflect.
