Kim Kardashian is back and she means business.

Actually, that sentence is probably drivel. She never really went away and she never really stopped meaning business as evidenced by her sadface on the (admittedly abruptly curtailed) post-divorce announcement handbag tour of Australia. What we are actually saying is that we have a new picture of her and that she is wearing a jacket with a bold power shoulder.

Now, we're partial to a power shoulder here at MyDaily towers. Our editor Libby even has a theory on the passive aggressive nature of the puffed or lightly padded shoulder (seriously, buy her a gin and tonic and she'll show you the accompanying PowerPoint presentation).

However, this is less of a power shoulder and more of a tribute to the gabled roofs of fairytale architecture. To add to the odd appearance, the tight black trousers and towering heels make her look like she's tapering to a point and could fall over at any moment. In essence: Kim Kardashian is architecturally unsound.
