Kim Kardashian has proved once again that she is no blushing bride.

The 33-year-old reality star stopped traffic in yet another head-turning ensemble on Thursday, this time opting for a dominatric leather ensemble ahead of her wedding to Kanye West on Saturday.

The beauty didn’t appear to be suffering from any pre-wedding nerves as she paid another visit to the Eiffel Tower alongside best friend Jonathan Cheban, dressed in a racy leather shirt and skirt combination looking composed.

She teamed her latest garment with a pair of gold heels and wore her trademark black sunglᴀsses as she headed out in the City of Love.

Kanye was also seen out and about in Paris on Thursday as he headed to designer shop Lanvin in the French capital.

There was further good news for the US rapper as his good friend Jay Z is set to be his best man at his nuptials on Saturday, MailOnline can reveal.

A close family source has confirmed the star will stand up for his friend at the lavish ceremony to be held at Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy.

Rumours that Jay-Z would be the best man were originally dismissed, but the family member said he would be attending alongside his wife, superstar Beyoncé, adding: ‘Beyoncé had to think about it at the last minute, she didn’t really want to go, but I think Jay-Z’s the best man, so he’s kind of making her go.’

Earlier in the day, The raven-haired beauty was pictured leaving the L’Usine fitness club in Paris where she has worked out for the past three days ahead of her nuptials.

Keeping out the cold, the reality TV star wrapped a fringed Aztec-insired scarf around her neck as she vacated the premises in her exercise gear.

Keeping her head down, the make-up free star hid behind a pair of aviator frames as she headed back to her H๏τel wearing cropped leggings and a matching zip-up top.

Meanwhile, The Sun is reporting that Kanye West has hired an illusionist who will make the couple vanish from the dance floor on the big day – ensuring the experience is a magical one.

The newspaper reports that Kim will also choose from three wedding dresses, one of which is said to be worth £1million. Moreover, there is speculation that Beyonce and Jay Z will perform, too. 

Despite the wedding in Florence being an intimate affair, The Sun reports that no expense has been spared and there will be £175,000 spent on flowers alone.

The Kardashian clan – Kim’s sister Kourtney Khloe, Kendall and Kylie, as well as her mother and step-father Kris and Bruce Jenner – have all arrived in Paris ahead of Kim and Kanye’s celebrations.

Following an evening event at le Palais de Versailles, it has been reported that guests will be flown via private jet to Florence, Italy, where the wedding will take place Saturday at Fort Belvedere.
