Kendall Jenner, new face of Estée Lauder and modern icon to Instagrammers everywhere, shares the beauty and style essentials she can’t live without and proves that black will always be the new black…
THE TROPHY JACKET
Leather jacket Dhs1,390 Topshop
“Black leather jackets make an outfit. I just got a new one that’s black with embossed snake print.”
THE MIRACLE MASCARA
Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara Dhs172 Estée Lauder
“My favourite type of mascara is volumising – my lashes have the length, but sometimes I need the bulk. I love the Estée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara. When I was in sixth grade I went through a phase where I wore bright blue mascara and bright blue liquid eyeliner; it was ‘the thing’, but now I mostly stick to black.“
THE LBD
Leather mini dress, Dhs18,016, Balmain available at net-a-porter.com
“I rarely wear dresses but when I do, I look for something that stands out.”
THE EDGY EYELINER
Intense Kajal Liner Dhs99 Estée Lauder
“I’m really bad at putting on my own eyeliner! But I like kajal liners that you can apply and smudge. I sort of have OCD with my eye make-up so even if it’s supposed to look messy I still try to make it look perfect!”
THE CULT HEADPHONES
Beats by Dr. Dre headphones Dhs1,245 available at amazon.com
“I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like knowing my schedule because it can get really stressful, so I don’t use planners or notebooks. But I always have my black phone in a black case with me. And my headphones – I got my black Beats Detox headphones before they came out.”
THE CLASSIC SHADES
Aviator sunglasses
Dhs1,818 The Row
available at ssense.com
“My favourite sunglasses are a pair of black aviators. I also have a pair of boxy, black shades that just go with everything.”
THE EVERYDAY TOTE
Leather handbag Dhs9,900 Céline at Mall of the Emirates
“I have a big black bag that’s really good for traveling because you can fit everything inside. But I wear my black Céline Mini Tote everyday. I have two others – in nude and red – but the black one is just so easy: you grab it and go.”
THE 24-HOUR BOOT
Suede ankle boots Dhs3,369 Tabitha Simmons available at mytheresa.com
“I used to be into knee-high boots with heels, but now I’m much more into ankle boots. My favourites are booties from Tabitha Simmons. I’m tall and I don’t really need the height. Plus, I like being comfortable.”
