North West Reveals Her Diamond-Crusted New Accessory — Drawing Mixed Reactions From Fans
North West has always had an alternative, edgy style, from long nose jewelry to a pierced finger. And her latest beauty move is bold, daring, and encrusted with diamonds, drawing mixed reactions online.
Kim Kardashian and ex Kanye West’s eldest daughter shared new pictures of her custom shark grillz, dripping in diamonds and sharpened to look like the pointy teeth of an ocean’s predator. The 12-year-old bared her teeth for new pictures in front of a Christmas tree, showing off her long pointy nails, with both middle fingers featuring a row of spikes. In other pictures, she showed off her teal-blue hair and posed on her family’s private jet.
“????” she simply captioned the post on her new Instagram account.
The diamonds weren’t the only expensive part of North’s look. According to Page Six, North’s new smile was designed by celebrity grill designer Johnny Dang & Co. Her outfit was a Balenciaga Tat hoodie and sweatpants retailing for $1,700 and $1,400, respectively. She also wore rare, limited-edition Chrome Hearts x Rick Owens sneakers, which have been sold out for a while but are on eBay for $22,000.
The comments drew mixed reactions from fans, with musicians like SZA praising the pre-teen. “Ice Angel ????????,” SZA commented. Diplo commented, “damn she got the riff raffs.”
Alabama Barker, North’s aunt Kourtney Kardashian’s step-daughter, commented, “Ate.” Someone else wrote, “SHES IN HER KING KYLIE ERA ????”
“This is so iconic wait,” someone else wrote.
Still others didn’t like that North got a grill at her age. “She’s only 12????,” one person said. Another said, “It’s horrible, she’s 12 years old omg.”
“12!!! This child is 12!! That’s not sass, it’s heartbreak from not having a real childhood like normal children her age!! ???? ????” someone else said. Another person wrote, “Not cute!!!! Not cool!!!! That’s horrible????????♀️????????♀️????????♀️????????♀️????????♀️”
Kardashian hasn’t commented on her daughter’s look, but she has defended North’s style choices in the past. In an October appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the All’s Fair star said, “I’m like, ‘Babe, if you want blue hair, it is what it is.’ It makes her so happy. I would never take that creative away from her.”
“She’ll be like, ‘Mom, I saw this and I don’t really care if someone says they don’t like my blue hair, or my this or that,’” Kardashian continued. “And she’s really confident and is like, ‘I probably wouldn’t be hanging out with those people.’”
Parenting requires some tough decisions, and I understand people’s concerns about harming her teeth and not letting her grow up too fast. But Kardashian letting her child express her own style in the way that she wants is coming from a place of love, and we love to see it!
