Kim Kardashian's first post-baby interview leaves no stone unturned. Speaking to The Sunday Times' STYLE supplement, the 33-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star discusses everything from her diet and workout regimen to her new mommy style.

According to the fashion designer herself, Kanye West plays an integral role in her dressing decisions. "You want your guy to think you're really hot," she explains. "I'll put something on and he'll say, ‘No, that doesn't look good,' and I'll trust him." Kardashian adds that she's also dressing differently because of daughter North West, who was born in June.

"I want to dress a little lighter color-wise," she shares. "I think North looks cute in light colors, and then I want to wear light colors. North doesn't typically wear pink, though. She wears mauve or blush, not, like, typical baby pink."

During her pregnancy, Kardashian says she felt "completely destroyed" when anonymous bloggers would mock her weight gain. Since giving birth, however, the reality star has lost an impressive 25 pounds.

"I haven't exercised a whole lot so far," says Kardashian, who's been seen working out at Barry's Bootcamp and Pilates Plus. "I've busy with the baby and I don't want to leave her."

Kardashian adds that she still has "some" baby weight left to lose. "Atkins worked for me and I don't feel tempted to eat a bunch of junk food," she says. "It's just about staying healthy—it will come off."
