Michelle & Carla lock Lip Lock
Tuesday, April 7, 2009
Carla Bruni Sarkozy. Slim, gorgeous, great clothes and even more gorgeous. No first lady ever wants to be photographed with her ? no one likes to lose in comparision you see. But then along came Michelle Obama. True, she may not be as conventionally drop dead wow, but that woman eludes power, poise and calm. Michelle stole hearts, got famous in a minute and eyes follow her all around. So for Carla to be J, is all so normal.
So we all expected a French- American war of the beauties to begin when Carla and Michelle met for the first time in Strasbourg. Instead look on ? here?s what we got!
Ahhhhh… What's happening?… Pipe down people, yes they did kiss- but not on the lips. ?tis is just a little trick ? or mistake by the camera. Wrong angles can work wonders can it not? So while lives were not lost ? a different war struck! A war of the wardrobes that is...and lets see who won.

Round 1: April 3, 2009
Spotted Obama Michelle in a dark coat that you can knot at the neck with weird magenta flowers and weirder tiny spots all over. Shoes ? shiny, pointy and pretty.
Spotted Sarkozy Carla Bruni in a calm grey coat ? also knotted at the neck with a trendy belt. Shoes- ballerina dull and in need of some polish.
And after some meditation I hereby declare Carla Bruni Sarkozy the winner of round one ? War of the Wardrobes.
Round 2: Same day April 3, 2009
Spotted Obama Michelle in conversation with Sarkozy Carla Bruni - - - COATS OFF! Michelle?s coat colours are used on the reverse on her dress i.e Shiny magenta fabric with weird navy blue flowers and weirder tiny spots all over ? but its better than the coat.
Sarkozy wearing a darker-than-coat grey dress with satin around the neck and buttons down the front.
And after some more meditation (I?m attaining enlightenment soon) I?d say Carla is the winner ? simply because I?d never wear Michelle?s dress ? would you?
Round 3 : Once again ? later on the same day
Spotted (yawn again) This time they?re in black! Michelle is wearing a trendy A-line, knee length, net trimmed black number. Carla wearing nice peep-toes, and a simple yet designer looking fitted dress.
And the winner of black is back is...(drumrolls please)… MICHELLE OBAMA- for trying out something not "her" and still carrying it off!
Round 4: April 4th, 2009
A new day means?… A new outfit my sillies
Spotted Michelle O in a black tailored suit with a bow on her shirt and something printed and purple under the jacket that I can?t seem to figure out.
Spotted on her right, Carla Bruni in a lovely lavender long coat with lovely black pants and top. Please check- her purple printed scarf has doubled up into a belt ? how very French.
Winner is? Well its Mrs Sarkozy all the way.
So when you tally up the scores Carla Bruni wins. Too bad because Michelle does out-shine in every other way. But I guess that does mean it takes more than clothes to win hearts.
