WET REPUBLIC welcomed Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian to celebrate the launch of their new E! reality show, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami. Khloe sported a sexy plum maxi dress, while Kourtney opted for a more casual look by wearing jean shorts and a loose fitting studded top, which concealed her tiny baby bump. Although five months pregnant, Kourtney still looked petite and was hardly showing. The soon-to-be mom was sans the father of her baby, on-again, off-again boyfriend Scott Disick. Although he was spotted partying at WET REPUBLIC the day before, Disick was a no-show for Kourtney’s poolside appearance Sunday.

Rather than letting loose “Vegas” style, the reality starlets spent the day relaxing in one of WET REPUBLIC’s exclusive bungalows. Khloe along with close friend Malika Haqq indulged in the party atmosphere and hung out by one of the private pools as many admirers vied for the attention of the younger Kardashian sister. Meanwhile, Kourtney spent most of the afternoon laying low in the bungalow, shying away from the crowd and was seen texting non-stop for the majority of her stay at the Vegas pool party destination. The socialites ordered fruit platters, virgin Miami Vices, champagne for Khloe and water for Kourtney.

Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami is to premiere on E!, tonight.
