    14 Life Lessons The Kardashians Taught Us (& 6 We Still Can't Relate To)

    "There's a lot of baggage that comes along with our family, but it's like Louis Vuitton baggage." Only Kim Kardashian would throw us a quote like that. If 2018 has proven anything, it's that Keeping Up With The Kardashians was a name well-chosen. The year isn't even through and this family has managed to give us more babies, drama, and Versace than we can handle.

    Kylie Jenner became a mom, and not long after, she wore a $1400 pantsuit and red-heeled Christian Louboutins as she stared down the lens of Forbes' camera for her "Youngest Self-Made Billionaire" cover. Kendall Jenner is the highest-paid model in the world. KKW Beauty sold out in three minutes.

    People are mostly on the fence when it comes to the Kardashians. While hundreds of millions of us follow this family on social media, an equal amount is wishing that this family would disappear. Newsflash-they're not going anywhere. In fact, they're teaching us quite a lot.

    There will always be a limit to how well we relate to a life of front-row Fashion Week. Or private jets. Or $1 million Swarovski-encrusted fridges. Then again, the way these women lead their lives is worth taking a look at. Here are 14 life lessons that the Kardashians taught us (plus 6 we'll never be able to relate to).

    20 Every Time Your Orange Had To Match Your Orange

    In 2016, the world was tearing Kylie Jenner apart after her reality show, Life of Kylie saw her sit in an unimaginably plush mansion and tell the world that she was "realizing stuff."

    The formula for having a $900 million net worth might not be written into every girl's DNA, but we do understand matching outfits.

    In September 2018, Kylie wore yet another eye-popping outfit for her 113 million Instagram followers. In a rare departure from glittering Versace, Kylie wore this $20 Sorella Love Struck dress. Of course, it was paired with a $1,295 purse, but we can get on-board with matching. Life lesson: when it's matching, it's lit.

    19 Every Time Your Hair Had To Match Your Lamborghini

    And she has officially lost us. Kim Kardashian has spent most of the last few years insisting that she is "relatable." What's not to relate? Being a mom of three? Check. Being a 21st-century businesswoman? Check. Sneaking to McDonald's for late-night ice-cream? Check. But in 2018, Kim stepped out with yellow-green hair to match her $400,000 Lamborghini Aventador; "Had to get a neon lambo to match my hair!"

    With a net worth of $350 million (that will likely continue to sky-rocket in 2019), Kim isn't one to do things by half. According to High Snobriety, this shot came just hours after Kim was cruising around in a Ferrari.

    18 It Doesn't Hurt To Hang Out With Rappers

    By and large, our criteria for who we hang out with goes something like this: probably knowing them, probably living near them, not hanging out with jerks. The Kardashians may be hanging with the A-List's most exclusive, but the rapper portfolio that these women have in their lives can't be ignored.

    Kanye West, Travis Scott, and Tyga have all had temporary or permanent statuses in the Kardashian lives.

    For weddings, it's 2 Chainz. For Fashion Week, it's Beyonce and Jay Z. Here is the rapper-surrounded family at the 2018 Louis Vuitton show in Paris. Once you go rap, you don't go back.

    17 It Doesn't Hurt To Dabble In Makeup

    In 2014, we had zero Kardashians offering us cosmetics. With Kylie Cosmetics filling every teenage bathroom in America and KKW Beauty lining household shelves across the globe, it's fair to say that this is a lesson worth taking on board. The beauty empires from Kim and Kylie are nothing short of conglomerate powerhouses. The Evening Standard was kind enough to remind us that it doesn't stop there: "Kim Kardashian makes $5 million in five minutes"- come to think of it, fragrances are up there, too.

    But it won't work unless you're passionate. With women across social media following suit, this is one lesson we can totally relate to.

    16 NBA Players Make For Risky Baby Daddies

    Advice that Kendall Jenner seems to be taking with a pinch of salt. With People reporting that Kendall is dating NBA player Ben Simmons, we can't help but picture someone in the family saying: "For real? After the whole Khloe thing?"

    You'd need to be living under a rock not to know that Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson's 2018 baby story didn't come without its drama.

    Just days before Khloe was due to give birth, The Daily Mail released footage of Tristan allegedly cozying up to an unknown woman in an NYC bar. It was enough to get Kim on The Ellen Show. "I have no words," Kim said.

    15 Then Again, A Second Chance Can Be Worth It

    "Keep him" or "ditch him" is a tricky one. Throw in a baby, and tricky turns impossibly complicated. Hot-off-the-press is E! News' report that Khloe is leaving sunny California for Cleveland, where her baby daddy has his Cleveland Cavaliers residency. Remember that Khloe has been through this scenario before-her marriage to Lamar Odom was rumors galore, although, without kids, it was less complicated.

    "They are doing better and have had a positive summer," E! News reported. Then again, another source told the media outlet that Khloe "doesn't trust him 100% or know what's going to happen." For all the times you thought True would be a simple baby name…

    14 The Unimaginable Stress Of Furnishing Our $20 Million Mansions

    For all the times we totally related to this one-Armani Interiors via the magazine? Please. Someone speed-dial Giorgio himself. Four years after purchasing their $20 million Bel Air mansion, Kim and Kanye finally moved into their marbled home for… a bit of a buzzkill. Kanye West just announced that he wants to leave California for Chicago.

    $750,000 gold-plated toilet seats and a $1 million Swarovski-encrusted fridge. #WeFeelYourPainKim

    According to The Daily Mail, these are just a handful of the extravagant interior choices in the KimYe mansion. The pressure? "Who let you choose black covers for your furniture? That's disgusting," Kourt to Khloe on KUWTK.

    13 The Inexplicable Need For Fried Chicken In Our Private Jets

    Remember the time you had to fly from New York to San Diego and nobody was there to escort you from your Bentley to your private jet? Before we even get to the fried chicken, fire whoever was in charge of that disaster. Fortunately, the world has given us the goodness that is melt-in-your-mouth fried chicken. If it's good at your local chicken joint, it's good in a jet.

    In 2016, Khloe and Kourtney released this cheeky shot of their "cheat day" nibbles. This isn't the first time that the Kardashians have taught us that fried chicken is life--Kylie has done it with Popeye's, too.

    12 Thou Shalt Sip Starbucks In Parking Lots

    Come to think of it, likely the most relatable thing that the Kardashians have ever thrown our way. This 2018 pic of Kim and Kylie in a Calabasas parking lot went viral the minute it was posted.

    Doing what they do best, these two wore head-to-toe Yeezy, the sock boots that Cardi B considers important enough to rap about, and just enough #LongHairDon'tCare to pull it off.

    Kim K has called her Starbucks order "extra." A short white chocolate mocha, but she "only takes a few sips." A Starbucks drink (extra or not) can easily cost $4. We'll take the vibes, but please, we finish that stuff.

    11 Thou Shalt Be Contoured Within An Inch Of Your Life

    2018 is officially contouring year. Women are emptying Sephora's contour counters like it's going out of style. If we aren't recreating our own in the hope that Huda Beauty or Anastasia Beverly Hills will repost it, we're making a dire mess of our faces in the process. Then again, learning this art is indeed a process.

    The "rule of 3" involves drawing a "3" on each side of your face, from your forehead through your cheekbones and along your jawline. Yes, it's a very "Instagram look." In the Kardashian household, it likely involves a veritable makeup army. We'll take the contour stick, a mirror, and the selfie option, though.

    10 If He Isn't Worth It, He Isn't Worth It

    You don't need a Kardashian to tell you that dating comes with certain requirements. A thick skin. A bestie for when it doesn't work out. A little faith. Kourtney Kardashian hasn't had it easy with relationships. The "on-off" status with her baby daddy Scott Disick lasted years.

    In 2018, a 339-year-old Kourt split from male model Younes Bendjima after approximately two years together.

    The Daily Mail reported that Kourt "dumped" Younes after seeing "hands-on" pics of him with a Mexican model. People is now reporting that Kourt has moved on with Luka Sabbat. Major relationship lesson: if he isn't worth it, he just isn't worth it.

    9 When He's The One, You Just Know

    Kylie has had it with fans throwing shade on her relationship with Travis Scott, even taking to social media to systematically shut down split rumors from fans. When these two were spotted shopping at a jewlery store just outside LA in September 2018, the media was quick to suggest a possible engagement.

    Kylie: "What did I eat the most when I was pregnant?" Travis: "In-N-Out. Fact." Kylie recently asked Travis 23 questions with GQ. Travis knew how many cavities Kylie has (none), her biggest scar (left leg), and her astrological sign (Leo). With a baby and so much love, learn this: When he's a keeper, he's a keeper.

    8 Never Accept Less Than You're Worth

    Business meetings with the Kardashians are no picnic. These women know their worth (and they won't settle for a penny less). In 2017, the man responsible for coordinating the family's deals told Harper's Bazaar just how much that is. $500,000 is the minimum they'll accept for a sponsored social media post.

    In 2018, The Sun reported that Kylie Jenner now demands up to $1 million-Kylie is now the most bankable person on Instagram.

    The gender pay gap is something we know all too well, so we commend these ladies for their work. We might take a lifetime to earn what these ladies net in a week, but the mentality is one to learn from.

    7 Never Underestimate The Power Of Louis Vuitton

    There are over 31 million results for #LouisVuitton on Instagram. There are well over 31 Louis Vuitton purses in the $1 million worth of bags that People estimated fill Kylie Jenner's closet. This family's love of the French luxury brand might border on the ridiculous, but it has put that name on the 2018 map.

    "There's a lot of baggage that comes along with our family, but it's like Louis Vuitton baggage," says Kim Kardashian. Ordinary working women can save up for a Louis Vuitton bag. It can take years, but it isn't impossible. Sporting a more toned-down look with Adidas athleisurewear, here is Kendall Jenner showing us how it's done.

    6 If You're Hit, Hit Back

    Oh, have you met your match if you dare cross these women. Lip glosses aren't a sign of being shallow for this family-they're the ink they used to scrawl back any shade you throw their way. When Kim was body shamed by social media, she hit back.

    "I am empowered by my body. I am empowered by feeling comfortable in my own skin," Kim stated.

    Kim accepts her flaws, but not the haters. Then again, Kim isn't above sending out insults to her own family. "She's the least exciting to look at," Kim said as she got straight to business clawing out Kourtney on season 15 of KUWTK.

    5 If You're Pregnant, Vanish Off The Face Of The Earth

    The sheer amount of manpower and money this must have cost is only just dawning on us. Fans were suspecting that something was up when Kylie Jenner stopped updating her social media in 2017. With nothing but a handful of promotional Kylie Cosmetics posts, the rumors were settled with the 2018 announcement of baby Stormi. With over 18 million likes, the post remains the most-liked post in history.

    Disappearing off the face of the earth to conceal your pregnancy, though? Because that totally works in the real world. Kylie has justified her absence with the "privacy" that she needed. Then again, gated communities don't have many neighbors, right?

    4 Girl, Every Week Is Fashion Week

    From a self-confessed fashionista, this is one to bookmark. The Kardashians are undeniable fashion icons. From Kim's brazen outfits to Kendall's offbeat hipster looks, there isn't an area of fashion that this family hasn't conquered.

    Kendall may have Fashion Week on her work calendar, but life is one giant runway for the Kardashian-Jenners.

    Kim wore vintage Versace to 2Chainz's 2018 wedding. Her own wedding gown was custom-made Valentino. In September 2018 alone, Kylie was spotted in Chanel, Dior, Alexander Wang, and Prada. Kourtney's kids have mini Louis Vuitton bags. And North West? She was a fashion icon by the time she was two months old.

    3 Does Every Day Have To Be Yeezy Season?

    Kanye West must be thanking his lucky stars. Hiring high-profile celebrities to promote your apparel? Who in their right mind would bother when you've got the world's most-photographed woman for a wife? Kim has been loyally promoting the Yeezy clothing and shoe line since the first season dropped. That was great until every day became #YeezyDay.

    How $150 nylon slides, $300 shorts, $400 leggings, and the rest of the questionably priced Yeezy Supply are worth our while, we'll never know. That said, The Yeezy Boost 350 was the most searched-for sneaker of 2018, according to Footwear News. Kylie, Khloe, Kendall, Kourt, and Kris Jenner join the carousel of Yeezy promo.

    2 The Family That Always Comes First

    Call them a power family. Call them a pack. Whatever the Kardashians mean to you, one thing can't be denied. Blood is thicker than water for the Kardashians, and family means everything. When Kourtney was going through her baby daddy drama, Kim went straight on The Ellen Show to defend her. Have you seen these girls do lunch?

    "Family is more important than money." - Kim Kardashian

    These girls eat together. They shop together. They train together. From the laughs to the cries, they're 100% there for each other. If you listen to anything they say, let it be this: Family is everything.

    1 The $1 Billion That Isn't Far Behind

    2018 has been a busy year for the youngest Kardashian. Nobody ever thought that little Kylie Jenner would overtake her sister to find herself fronting Forbes' "Youngest Self-Made Millionaire." With 21 candles on the cake, a baby, and a staggering $900 million in revenue from Kylie Cosmetics, this new kid on the block now owns the block. And the one next to it. "Before I even refreshed the page, everything was sold out," Kylie told Forbes. That baby might "make all my mornings," but we have a feeling that Kylie is motivated by something else- the 7-figure bank balance that she acquired as you were reading this.

    Hit share on Facebook for anyone who needs some life lessons Kardashian-style. We definitely can't have people mismatching their Lambo + hair combos. Throw in the other 19, and you're all set.
