Carla Bruni’s Beauty Competion With the World’s First Ladies!

Posted under fashion & Princess Diana & Barack Obama & Carla Bruni & michelle obama

In these days of economic hardships and world wide financial and terrorist issues, it seems somewhat pathetic that the French prime minister’s wife Carla Bruni should launch a new website devoted to her own self promotion and vanity.

But as fast as the website launched, it crashed!

The site, when viewable is a lavish tribute to Carla Bruni Sarkozy and the work she does as France’s first lady.

But beyond a few words on her ‘work’ evidently Carla has used the site to comment on what she sees as a ‘beauty contest’ between her and several other first ladies from around the read more ....

Is Michelle Obama Selling The USA Short(s) As The First Lady?

At the risk of venturing into unchartered waters when it comes to criticizing Michelle Obama’s dress sense, and voicing a less than approving opinion about her choice of shorts, the lack of class that this woman exhibits in her fashion taste has been highlighted once again this week as she was snapped at the Grand Canyon looking less like a First Lady and more like a tour guide!

If you’re in the public eye, and you’re thinking about wearing shorts while the world’s camera lenses are focused on your every move, even if, like Michelle Obama, you feel comfortable read more ....

Not since Britian’s Princess Diana glided onto the fashion scene in the early 1980’s has there been a first lady with as much class, beauty and elegance as the new wife of Nicholas Sarkozy, model Carla Bruni.

Mr Sarkozy, 54, and Ms Bruni, 41, had a whirlwind courtship and they married less than three months after they reportedly first met, and less than four months after Sarkozy divorced his second wife, Cécilia.

But in the past year, as Carla became the First Lady of France and revealed herself as a fashion plate for the new millennium, we also see that back in 1989 read more ....

Sarah Ferguson: The Jolly Green Giant!

There was a time when Sarah Ferguson’s lack of style and fashion sense, which was often highlighted as she stood next to her close friend and sister in law, Princess Diana, was put down to just that, a different look from Diana’s. But years after the death of Diana, Fergie still doesn’t seem to have grasped the idea of body image, colour, style and fashion.

Arriving at the Media Magnate Awards ceremony at Vinopolis last night in London, its clear that Sarah totally forgot to check herself out in the mirror prior to leaving home and didn’t notcie the read more ....

There’s just a few days to go now to the most celebrity packed event of the year, where every style, colour, design and outrageous creation will be caught by the shutter-bugs as the stars parade themselves up the red carpet.

No, we’re not referring to the Golden Globe Awards, but the presidential inauguration that will take place on January 20th on the steps of The Capitol Building in Washington D.C.

With that in mind, there is just one ‘celebrity’ who will be under the spotlight that day. No not Barack Obama, but his wife, and First Lady in waiting, Michelle read more ....

‘They Had Style, They Had Grace!’ What Will Michelle Obama Have? Pearls?

Waking up today and realizing that the United States of America has not only a new president but a new first lady, prompted the thought, ‘just what will Michelle Obama bring to the world of fashion?’ A rather frivolous thought but none the less, as with every first lady Princess, and even presidential running mate, history has shown that these women bring their own style to the world of fashion. Styles that are imitated and reproduced in the fashion houses of the world.

What’s with the Americans when they visit the good old United Kingdom that makes them drag out their weird and wonderful hats as though they’re popping off to Lady’s Day at Ascot?

It may be a well know English fashion (along with cucumber and cress sandwiches daily at 3.00 pm!!!), brought back into fashion in the 1980’s during the Princess Diana era, but it really isn’t compulsory, and it is definitely not a sport to be entered in an attempt to out do the previous Hollywood cleb as to who can wear the most read more ....
