My Monday Obsession: Guest Editor Time!!

If you watch Keeping up the Kardashians like other lovers of rachet TV like myself, you followed we with some interest (Re. none) the storyline around Rob’s high fashion sock line For those not in the know, Rob wants to make money like his older sisters, except he has no talent or sex tapeto make it happen the Kardashian way. Or support from the high priestess of making something out of nothing- Kris Jenner aka Mom to the Girls aka Kim K.’s pimp.


Rob, having suffered more than 24 years of living in the massive shadow cast by his sisters, is forced toforge it alone on his money making ventures, with a little help from Scott ‘Lord’ Disick, who is there for Rob only when the TV cameras are rolling. (As we all are, to be honest.)  But Rob is convinced that these sockswill make him a wealthy man, because he has vision and…that’s it.

Anyway, helet everyone know his socks will be the hottest thing on the streets come theend of the year.


Girl, ok!


Fast forward to Holiday season!  Rob’s sock line is here to delight…someone for Christmas!

When I saw a link to Rob Kardashian’s new sock line, Arthur George, flitter across my timeline, I didn’t hesitate for one minute onclicking on it. I knew one of two scenarios waited for me on Rob’s sockwebsite: a hot mess of colors and patterns
creatively deemed edgy by the Kardashians’ media team, or a genuine effort put forth by the lesser male Kardashian to transform men’s socks into a hip part of the average man’s wardrobe.


I’ll give you a nano second to guess what Rob put forth ashis first foray into the fashion world.

Rob’s socks looks like what a preschooler on acid’s artproject would look like. On a good day!   Some reviewers have praised Rob for being ‘bold’ and ‘colorful’but let’s be honest: Rob’s socks are horrendous and are the neglected child ofthe Kardashian fashion blitzkrieg. Kris DOES NOT CARE about anyone whose initialsdo not start with K and end in -im Kardashian. If she did, she wouldhave shut down Rob’s Happy House of Socks and helped him fix his life Iyanlastyle.

Do you see Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe checking for Rob’ssocks? No. They’re out there Imagepromoting Khroma, Unbreakable, Penelope Scotland,and Kanye’s latest breakdown.  Kris is out there making a schedule and forgetting to put down Rob’s name for ameeting. Rob’s sitting in his room in Khloe and Lamar’s house in Arthur George,while Kim’s out there prancing out there in Kanye’s newest latex disaster without a thought toward asking Kanye to rock Arthur George for a photoshoot.  No country for Rob in the Kardashian fam!

Anyway.


I look forward to the next Kardashian fashion business venture.. another one at Sears I suppose? Or an online boutique? Only time will tell.. the next fashion and lifestyle venture?
