text: A life coach and author with a curvy figure and dyed black locks has been dubbed the Romanian Kim Kardashian. Alexandra Harra, 28, who now lives in Miami, has a BA degree in creative writing and classics. She now works as a professional life coach, a writer for the Huffington Post and an author of The Karma Queens' Guide to Relationships. But when she was persuaded to pose on the cover of the Romanian Playboy, she suddenly found it wasn't her university education that people were interested in. Scroll down for video . Selfie queen: Alexandra Harra has been dubbed 'The Romanian Kim Kardashian' and even shares the same love of selfies . All about the booty: The life coach turned model enjoys showing off her curves in tight fitting clothes . Since appearing on the infamous cover she has graced the pages of countless glossies in her homeland. The model, who formerly had long peroxide locks, recently took to the bottle to make her similarity with the reality star, married to Kanye West, even more striking. With her dyed black hair, she now lays claim to the title of the Romanian Kim Kardashian. Harra is already a bigger success than the celebrity in one way, as her derriere apparently measures 43 inches, while Kardashian's is just 40 inches. She said: ‘Someone in Romania noticed that my bottom size, at 109cm, is larger than Kim Kardashian's at 101 cm. 'Now I'm in the paper all the time as the Romanian Kim Kardashian.’ Curves galore: Alexandra Harra recently dyed her hair from blonde to black to look more like Kim . Meow: Harra states on Instagram that she loves cats, evident in these selfies . The decision to dye her hair black has been well received by fans, boosting her online popularity. Whilst she now lives in Miami, she said that when she returns to her native Romania she is treated like a celebrity. ‘We are the Kardashians of Romania. We're just as controversial as them. 'When I arrive anywhere in Romania, all the cameras are after me, the paparazzi are after me too, they don't expect to see a body like this and a booty like that.’ Alexandra also uses her suggestive shots as a vehicle for her life coaching advice. On one Instagram snap, she wrote: 'Change doesn't come by accident. Change comes by will.' Next to one picture, in which she posed side-on, she posted a Bible quote from Romans, 5: 3-5: 'But we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame.' And maybe Kim should look out, as according to one picture, Alexandra believes in the power of positive thinking. She wrote: 'What you wish, you can manifest. Always.' High flyer: As well as being a business woman and author, Alexandra claims that she is treated like an A-list celebrity in her native Romania . Cover girl: Alexandra has appeared on the cover of Playboy Romania, as well as in many more magazines in her native country . Alexandra dyed her hair black to cement her claim of being ‘The Romanian Kim Kardashian’ ‘In Romania women are supposed to be very thin, they're supposed to not have curves. That's what they think is beautiful. That to me is outrageous.’ And it seems that Harra’s move to become Romania’s answer to Kim Kardashian is already paying off. She owns a Mercedes S 550 2015 model worth £95,000 and a Mercedes CLS 550 worth £63,00. Yet Alexandra's mum, Carmen, who she runs her business with, thinks her daughter is unique. ‘My daughter is being labelled as the blonde version of Kim Kardashian. 'But we don't try to imitate anyone, we're just ourselves.’ Alexandra runs a psychology company with mum, Carmen, who is also supportive of her modelling career .
