Kim Kardashian Makeover: Fab Or Fail?

When exotic looker Kim Kardashian first hit up the Hollywood scene, she was just another Paris Hilton knock-off – crashing D-List events while flaunting her booty in barely-there outfits. These days, Kim’s chucked the cheesiness for a look that’s more classic, simple and sleek. But the starlet didn’t just swap out her trashy clothes for a chicer look – she’s also adopted a macrobiotic diet and slimmed down from a size 6 to a size 2 – all for the sake of looking fierce.

Kim also hit to the gym to help tone her eye-catching booty, after she grew tired of the frenzy her fanny caused. “I love that I’m curvy, but I’m on this major kick to try and lose weight, especially in my butt,” she told Radar magazine in March 2009. “I’m just so over it! When you’re posing on the red carpet and the paparazzi shout, ‘Turn around! Turn around!’ — it gets a little offensive.”

Do you prefer Kim back when she was an unknown, bootylicious babe or is her current slimmed down, high fashion look more your speed?
