cupcakeMAG Man of Style: Our Chat with Rob Kardashian

He's charming and buff -- and makes all the girls swoon. Rob Kardashian sits down and talks fashion, family and how to win his heart. We just can't get enough of his style too! 

cupcakeMAG: Khloe & Lamar just finished their first season (which you were hilarious on!) and Keeping up with the Kardashian just started the new season. How is it filming with your family all the time?

Rob: I LOVE filming with the Fam all the time because it is about the only time I get to see everyone together and that’s when we have the most fun!  Everyone is so busy nowadays but I remember the days when we would do bowling nights or dinners and then go to clubs but things are different these days and our family really doesn’t  like to go out and party like that anymore.  We our homebodies and just like to be with each other.

CM: When it comes to your sister's significant others, what's your philosophy? Are you welcoming from the start, or do you make them jump some hoops?

Rob: I am very welcoming if I vibe with the person. If the person is closed off and a bore then of course I am not going to open up.  Our Family is very fun and we need to see that from the other person as well.  We are all together all the time so we all need to click.  But I never make anyone jump through hoops.  I’m pretty easy going.

CM: Career-wise, where do you see yourself? I'm sure people ask you this all the time, but what do you want to do?

Rob: Well people just assume what they see is my entire life which is completely untrue. I think it’s hilarious that everyone who watches our show and thinks they know me and think I’m some loser with no job and mooches off my sisters.  My father raised me until he passed away and it was just me and him and his values with business and life are very strong and he would NEVER allow me to just be jobless.  He would kill me otherwise.  I worked at Abercrombie & Fitch believe it or not in high school with a bunch of my buddies and my girlfriend at the time.  It was pretty fun! (laughs) That lasted 2 months.  Then I worked for CBS/KCAL Sports for about 3 summers because I have a passion for being an ESPN anchor.  Then I went to USC and graduated from the Marshall Business School in Entrepreneurship.  Once I graduated I didn’t waste any time and I developed a skin care line called “Perfect Skin” with a partner of mine and I had my Sisters endorse the product.  I was working there for almost 2 years when I lost the passion for it and started an online video game company called “Rival Spot” which allows you to bet other people online in video games for money.  Pretty cool considering I LOVE video games!  I am developing a few more ventures currently.  Also, I am going to coach my high school track team with my good friend because we were really passionate about running in high school and just LOVE the sport! 

CM: Is there anything you miss about your life before the show?

Rob: I live the same life before the show as I do now.  Never did I change up my friends or become “Hollywood.”  That term makes me laugh.  I don’t even think of me as anything which I’m not in terms of the “celebrity” world.  I am the same guy as I was since middle school.  I do the same things and have the same circle.  I hate going out and I hate the fake scene.  But the opportunities that the show has brought to our Family is amazing and I just am taking advantage of that.   

Now, on to the style questions!

CM: What brands dominate your closet?

Rob: My high fashion game isn’t where I would want it to be yet because I still am into the more skater/surfer/hipster style.  I know how to get right and wear a suit if need be but I’m a casual guy and dress how I want to dress not how everyone else dresses.  Right now I wear CROOKS & CASTLES, DIAMOND, THE HUNDREDS.

CM: If you have an event to attend or you are going somewhere special do you dress yourself or do you look to your sisters for help?

Rob: I sometimes will ask for my Sister’s opinion and ask if I look ok because I hate going out and dressing up so I’m never comfortable and always need that second opinion.

CM: What upcoming projects do we have to look forward to? (We are pulling for The Rob & Lamar Show! You guys are SO funny together!)

Rob: I have a few things that are really cool but I can’t say yet!

Khloé Had a Little Lam-Lam

A deep dark emerald worth falling for.

Kardashian Kolors from Nicole by OPI features 14 new Nail Lacquers inspired by these six trendsetting women. Kris Jenner and her five daughters – Kourtney, Kim and Khloe Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner – inspired the collection’s hues with their known head-to-toe unique style. The collection is available holiday 2011.

{Side Note: For those KUWTK fans, do you remember that meeting that Khloe & Kourtney missed when joking with Kris? That meeting was for this! Look like everything worked out perfectly in the end!}

Khloe Kardashian - Super Stylish. Super Sweet.

What's not to love?

Khloe Kardashian tells us just how funny it was teaching her darling hubs to swim, plans for her own book, and her thoughts on those burning baby questions. Plus -- learn some things you may not know about her. 

Khloe is the fun-loving, hilarious and can we say gorgeous youngest sister in the Kardashian clan. With everything she had going on, including the brand new season of Keeping up with the Kardashians - we were lucky enough to sit down and chat about all things Khloe! 

We see you teaching Lamar how to swim this season. How fun was that for you?

Oh my goodness! It was a ball! Some of my greatest memories are with my Dad swimming. My family and I take amazing vacations in tropical places where swimming is pretty much required. So for Lamar to not know how to swim actually made me sad.  It made me want to show him how much fun the water can be.  I love that I was able to show him something new especially in the sports department.  I love that he wanted to fight his fear for me.

Do you plan to write your own book? Do you and Lamar have plans to have your own spin off?

I would say yes to both.... I don't like putting restrictions on my life. I love writing. I used to write in school and I even had some articles printed in my school newspaper. I would love to write my own book one day. I never say never to anything.  That goes for a spin off as well... My life is now accustom to shooting daily. I am used to it. I definitely wouldn't mind.

What is your favorite part of being married?

My favorite part about being married is probably the unconditional love I feel daily. I truly have a best friend in Lamar. He isn't afraid to love me and he isn't afraid to tell me when I am wrong.  He makes me better and that is what a marriage should be about. Two people that are better together.

Everyone always asks you how soon you will have a baby, are you tired of the question or do you think that your fans are just excited and happy for you?

I can never be tired of such a sweet question.  I love and am flattered that I even have fans...(laughs) let alone people actually interested in when we will start a family together. We are anxious too. But babies are in God's hands.  I guess it just isn't time yet.

You always look fabulous! Please tell us, what can we find in your make-up bag and other favorite make up products that you can't live without. Favorite mascara?

Why thank you... I tend to break out easily that's why I love to stick to one thing. I always keep my Perfect Skin toner spray in my purse for when I get oily and feel like I need to freshen my face. I love it! It is so convenient.  My favorite mascara is Lancome Hypnose... works WONDERS!!!

Do you have a beauty secret you can share?

Honestly... My biggest beauty tip would be to take care of your skin. The better your skin quality and texture is, the better any makeup will look. My sisters and I have spent years formulating a product that we feel so confident sharing with others. Perfect Skin will change your life!

On a typical day, what is your "go to" outfit?

I would say my go to outfit would be a pair of skinny jeans, boots and a tee... Basic and not trying too hard but then I sex it out with the boots... Did I mention the boots are 6 inch thigh highs? (laughs)

What is your favorite trend to date?

I love the new sexy pant suit trend coming for fall. Don't get me wrong, I love dresses and mini skirts. But I love options. An amazing fitting pant suit can be dangerous to a man. Lamar LOVES them. I also love that camel is a HUGE color for fall.  Neutral but not black.

What can you tell us about the current season of KUWTK?

The season's get better and better with time. I believe because we do. (laughs) 

We are older. We have families now. More drama, yes... but in different ways.  We are always crazy but always in love with each other. You will be seeing Kim dating, Lamar and I tying to have boundaries with my family, Kourt and Mason... all family stuff.  Tears,

love and laughter.

What is your favorite part about being in the show?

My favorite part is being able to work with my family everyday. I get to be with Mason every single day and my little sisters and see them grow.  Most families do not get that luxury.  We are blessed.

1. I am terrified of whales.

2. One of my biggest pet peeve is tardiness... I feel when people are

late they are basically saying I don't respect you.

3. I have naturally curly hair.
4. When I was 5 I had an accident on a treadmill and have a massive scar on my leg due to it.

5. I have and always be in LOVE with leopard print (has to be the right print though.... some look cheese ball)

6. I wanted to be a veterinarian until I was 12. Then I changed my mind when my vet told me they had to put my dog to sleep.
7. Lamar and I have a secret language. Shhhhh
8. I haven't eaten pork or red meat in over 18 years... and there is no real reason behind it. (laughs)
9. Another pet peeve of mine is when people meet me and they don't look into my eyes when they say hello. It's genuine.
10. I am obsessed with Snapple ice teas.
