Closet Crashing: Kelly Bensimon

Like her or hate her, you have to admit Kelly Killoren Bensimon, the newest member of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of New York City," has fantastic style. Who else would dress for a showdown with her arch enemy in a green mini-dress and pink boots? This week Kelly let us dive into her closet and gave us a guided tour of her favorite pieces.

First of all, Kelly's closet isn't exactly a closet. It's more like a series of rooms. The clothes are organized by color and texture. There's a rack for all black and a rack for pastels. Soft fluffy sweaters occupy one shelf; wooly cardigans another. Shoes are kept in boxes with Polaroid photos of their contents! Honestly, it's every girl's dream.
 
Kelly's had a longtime career in fashion,so  we imagined she would have some pretty special pieces, but we were blown away by the sheer variety of her collection and her belief in sky-high, orange alligator stilettos. Kelly's got her own line of yoga clothes too, check it out.














Thanks for watching the Thread.  We'll be back soon from our Planet Hollywood studio in Times Square with a brand new episode.

      The (pink) shoes she was presenting in the one picture, say something loud and clear to me. Although, I am not much into fashion however, still I am a man. I appologize for the comment which may sound sexist. Maybe she should try posing in those shoes, and nothing else but those shoes. She is a very attractive lady, that is until she opens her mouth.

      To the author of this article:

      Get a life and stop kissing this fake biatch's butt. She has no style. Come on, green dress and horrific pink boots? Really? That's style to you? You want a fabulous closet and actually make an interesting read? Try getting pointing your lens to Anna Wintour's closet. Till then, you bore me...

      all of the real housewife’s are sooooo annoying, don’t they realize the only reason people watch them is to loath them. No one admires them, they are the rich filth of America.

      I really dislike her and I still am not sure why they decided to cast her or why you are featuring her. I do not like her style, I think she often looks quite messy and not put together. Also, did she get some kind of chemical peel done to her face? I am not trying to be mean, but everytime she is shown on the show it looks like her skin is fried.
