It’s official: The ’00s are back. See if you need more proof Kim Kardashianwho took to Instagram on Monday, Nov. 18, sporting a nineties-esque belly button ring.
She styled her followers with Y2K-style low-slung sweatpants and a stubby crop top—with just a hint of the era’s requisite underbob—that revealed her pierced navel. Although she has not been seen wearing body jewelry in recent years, she was photographed with piercings in 2007.
The sexy snap was hidden in a carousel of snaps, which Kardashian, 44, captioned “Life Lately,” jammed between two more wholesome family PJs snaps, just in time for the holidays.
Her naturally toned midriff was accented by the ring, which was a barbell style and a triangle-shaped gem on her navel that caught her iPhone camera flash.
She’s not the only member of the family showing off her piercings. Khloe Kardashiann his ear pierced a second time, viz Kylie Jenner posted a hilarious behind-the-scenes video of the moment via Instagram on Tuesday, Nov. 19, showing the entrepreneur taking deep breaths as Khloé repeatedly says, “I don’t know if I can do this. or not.” At the end of the Instagram reel, Jenner, 27, turned the camera around to show off her pile of heavily studded ears.
In the late 90s and early 2000s, navel jewelry was a popular trend among celebrities, e.g. Britney Spears And Beyonce. However, this trend slowly faded in the 2010s, with the influx of younger artists from the Disney Channel and Nickelodeon networks.
However, the Kardashian-Jenner clan is far from the only A-list group to go under the needle as of late. Piercings have been making a steady comeback in recent years.
