Kim Kardashian thanks loved ones for all the ‘birthday love’ in new post rocking a fluffy black coat

Kim Kardashian penned a sweet thank you message to her loved ones and more than 259 million Instagram followers as she rang in her 41st year of life on Thursday.

In addition to expressing gratitude for the sea of ‘birthday love’ over the past 24 hours, the reality star shared three images of herself rocking an oversized fluffy jacket.

Under her glittery coat, she wore a chic blouse, skintight leggings and a towering pair of heels as she strutted down a dimly lit street in a pair of black sunglasses.

In her first image, her shades were low enough on the bridge of her nose that fans could see her expressive brown eyes looking off into the distance.  

After heading inside, she posed for another image of herself leaning on a wall with her hands on her hips as she pouted. 

Within a few hours, she received more than two million likes and tens of thousands of comments, including one from her younger sister Khloe and bestie Foodgod.

‘There she is,’ gushed the Good American founder, 37, while the 47-year-old TV personality (born Jonathan Cheban] wrote: ‘The hits keep comin [fire emoji]!!’ 

The reality star celebrated turning 41 by posting a video of her oldest children North, eight, and Saint, five, dancing to a hilarious sketch from her stint hosting Saturday Night Live earlier this month. 

Kim said on her Instagram Story: ‘This is what they’re making me watch’, before panning her phone around to show her massive projector screen.

The room was dimmed, and North and Saint were seen running around the living area while Kim’s sketch Grown-A** Women In The Club from her recent hosting stint on SNL played on screen.   

The pre-taped music video–style sketch showed the KUWTK star showing off her rap abilities as she joked about wanting to party all night but ended up falling asleep in a nightclub multiple times throughout the evening.

She was joined by SNL cast members Ego Nwodim, Cecily Strong and Punkie Johnson as they rapped along with her about not being able to party in stilettos and being too old to stay out at the club.

‘The party the kids are throwing me is lit,’ Kim joked in her caption while filming.

North had already proved she was a capable dancer at her father Kanye West’s Sunday Service shows, and she continued the trend when she showed off her moves for her mother. 

She seemed to have made up a dance that matched perfectly with the sketch once Kim took the spotlight.

The shapewear mogul’s verse was abruptly interrupted with the sound of her snoring and leaning on another clubgoer’s shoulder, and North playfully closed her eyes and rested her head on her hands to mimic her mother’s sleeping face.

Kim’s mother Kris Jenner and her sisters have shared throwback photos of her on social media throughout the day to mark her birthday.

Before the children’s dance party, Kim revealed some of the gorgeous flowers her family and friends sent her.

Opulent floral displays are a regular birthday tradition for the Kardashian–Jenner sisters.

Among the elegantly arranged displays was a legal-themed bouquet in the shape of a judge’s gavel that was sent by fashion designer Alexander Wang.

The flowers referenced Kim’s desire to become a lawyer, though she’s failed multiple times to pass the mandatory ‘baby bar’ exam that’s needed to continue her studies. 

Another striking set of flowers was arranged to spell out Kim’s name in gorgeous white roses.
