Reality TV star Kim Kardashian knows a thing or two about racks. The curvy high-profile celebrity reportedly has plans on bringing her hugely successful Kimoji emoji application into stores.
According to reports, Kim K’s company has filed documents to materialize Kimoji into apparel, makeup bags, jewelry and other accessories.
Sources close to Kim tell us plans are in the early stages, but there’s a good chance Kim’s plan will include global pop-up shops to hawk the gear … just like hubby Kanye did for his Yeezy clothing line and little sis Kylie has for her makeup line. The Kimoji brand has been insanely successful, but the gear has only been limited to online sales … so Kim’s looking to take on the retail world too. (TMZ)
Last summer, Kim K reacted to landing a feature in Forbes over her mobile commercial success.

Within her cover feature, Kim dished on venturing into the technology gaming hustle.
“I became really intrigued with the tech world. I started spending a lot of time in San Francisco,” says Kardashian, without a hint of irony. “I realized this is really going to be the next cycle of my career and this is what I want to focus on.” (Forbes)

After the success of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, KK is now looking to make bank off other mobile ventures.
Kardashian’s new push: a $2.99-a-month eponymous app that gives paying users exclusive beauty tutorials and Kardashian content, which currently includes “How to Go Four Days Without Washing Your Hair” and “Bronzed and Braided.” “When people looked at me in a way like, ‘Why is she stepping into the tech world? That’s not her territory! Stick to reality TV!’ I was like, ‘No,’ ” Kardashian recalls. “ This is fun for me. Now I’m coming up with Kimojis and the app and all these other ideas. I don’t see myself stopping.” (Forbes)
