Kim Kardashian remained a loyal Blackberry user to the very end. 

While it was a tragic loss for the reality star, Kim finally had to bid farewell to her beloved Blackberry Bold after it stopped working. 

"Sooo my blackberry bold died. I can't find anymore on ebay. I knew this day would come & to be honest I'm prepared. But the question is...." she tweeted to fans on Thursday. "Do I try a different kind of blackberry? Or ditch it all together? Or a different phone like Samsung? I need 2 phones. Because I love having 2 different phone services so I always have a working phone."

Though she initially felt ready for her tragic breakup, Kim quickly sensed the pangs of her loss. "I really want my blackberry bold though. Reality is starting to set in & I'm getting sad."

While the star embarks on a new search for a replacement phone, we decided to revisit a few things Kim did break up with from life in the early 2000s.

1. Her Juicy Tracksuits

There was a time when every famous lady in Hollywood could not run errands around town without sporting a colorful velour Juicy tracksuit—including Kim herself. Before her closet was filled to the brim with Balmain and the likes of other haute couture labels, she donned many of the fashion trends of the early 2000s, including those signature two-piece outfits. 

2. Her Hairline

When looking at earlier photos of Kim, you might notice baby hair peaking out from her hairline that can't be found today. That's because she had them permanently removed back in the day. "I lasered my baby hairs off years ago because my forehead had all these little baby hairs and I would always break out because of them," the reality star wrote on her website this year. "Every photographer would photoshop them out anyway, and I thought I looked better without the baby hairs, but now I miss them."

3. Her Hoop Earrings

In addition to the Juicy tracksuits, there was one other element of Kardashian's look that constantly made an appearance—her hoop earrings. Years before she was a mom of two, Kim would sport all different versions of the traditional style. However, as her overall look evolved, she traded in the hoops for diamond studs and other more minimal jewelry styles. 

4. Her Waist Belts

Who could forget the chunky belts that highlighted every woman's waist in the early 2000s? Kim was a fan of cinching virtually every blouse or dress. Today, she's ditched the accessory in favor of streamlined tailored silhouettes, like body-con dresses. No belt necessary!

5. Her Bombshell Hair

Before hairstylist Jen Atkin began crafting some of the most copied sleek hairstyles on Kim, the fashionista sported a different signature look. The extensions were long and the hair was voluminous. However, she's toned down the trend since then and has experimented with shorter, textured cuts.
