As much as I love following the Kardashians' every move, it's just as much fun to look back at who they used to be, before they were virtually the most famous people on the planet. In the early days of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, their personalities were basically the same but the way they dressed and lived their lives was very different, and it's crazy to see how much has changed, even just by looking back at 2000s photos of the Kardashians. Back before there were selfies, gaggles of adorable kids added to their brood, and Kimoji, life was very different for them.
I love the Kardashians for so many reasons, but if there is one thing they are not, it is timeless — and I don't mean that in a bad way. Since the reality TV family is always tapping into every trend, over the years, they've come to look like a time capsule. What to know what was popular in the year 2003? Just find a photo of Kim, and assume whatever she is wearing is what everyone was wearing.
Here are some of the best examples of that — from hilarious to fashionably tragic. I wonder if we'll look at photos from them in 2016 and feel the same way?
1. When Kim Wore Jeans On The Red Carpet
Like that would ever happen again.
2. Wait, Everyone Wore Jeans On The Red Carpet
They look more like they're going to the mall to grab a pretzel and hit up the sales than attending a fashion event — and I have a feeling none of them would wear these outfits today.
3. Kim's Seriously 2000s Makeup
Can you believe there existed a time where Kim was not the queen of contour?
4. This Beautiful BFF Photo
Hollywood's true golden age was when these two were besties. Can we bring this back, please?
5. When Kris Apparently Modeled
That dress! Those bangs! What do I even talk about first?
6. When Kim Was On TRL
Because this was taken at at time when TRL was still a thing. RIP, TRL. RIP, baby doll dresses.
7. When Kim & Khloé Were Twinsies
Sweater dresses. Boots. For some reason, I love this.
8. Kris Jenner's Massive Bling
She still likes things shiny, but I doubt she'd wear something like this now.
9. Kim Actually Using A Sidekick
I love my iPhone, but I will always miss my Sidekick.
10. Whatever's Happening Here
This is the perfect early 2000s birthday party photo of this family. I want it framed.
11. And Whatever Kim Is Wearing Here
Please let that layering trend be dead and over with and never come back.
12. This Family Photo
Especially the crazy curls. How is it possible they've changed so much?!
13. When Kim Modeled This Track Suit
Those were the days. Look how comfy fashion once was!
14. This Sister Photo
They're so well coordinated!
15. This Priceless Selfie
Being taken on an actual digital camera!
16. When Kim Wore This Giant Belt
Remember the giant belt trend? Everything was just larger in 2007.
17. The Straight Bang Era Of '08
To be completely fair, everyone was doing it.
18. Khloé's Anti-Fur Campaign
Remember what a big deal this was on Keeping Up With The Kardashians? Now, Khloé can endorse whatever she wants, because she's Khloé.
19. Kourtney & Kim's Matching Tunics
I haven't thought about it until now, but I can't believe how often they used to coordinate their outfits.
20. More Digital Camera Fun
Is it weird that I kind of miss the early days of selfies?
21. Kim & Her Blackberry Curve
Little did she know she'd eventually create a game that could be played on a phone much fancier than this one that would be wildly successful.
22. Khloé Posing In An Actual Tiara
Please let her recreate this exact photo, but in the present day.
23. Rob Kardashian & Adrienne Bailon
Raise your hand if you also thought these two were going to last forever, and were also heartbroken when they did not!
24. This Photo Full Of Exes
RIP to both of these relationships.
25. This Colorful Family Photo
So young. So innocent. So pure.
26. When Kim Straight Up Went To An eBay Event
I have so many questions.
27. All This Pregnancy & Velvet
I forget what the world was even like before Mason Disick was born.
28. When Khloé Showed Off Her Engagement Ring
And promoted weight loss supplements, all at the same time.
29. This Photo That Belongs On A Mantle Somewhere
So many fashion choices being made here that would never have been made in any other time period.
30. Whatever Is Going On Here
No, seriously, what is happening here?
31. When Kim Posed With Justin Bieber
And that haircut. Look at these babies!
