District L

During a recent bout in France for D-Day commemorations with the Premiere Famile Francais, First Lady Michelle Obama (who single-handedly banished the dark age of pastel pant suits known as the Bush Administration) outshined former model and French First Lady Carla Bruni at her own game. In a Narcisco Rodriguez sheath and Marc Jacobs coat, Michelle truly stands out over the equally chic but more-traditionally so Bruni.

Needless to say, District L approves.

So where was Carla Bruni during Givenchy, Chanel, and Dior?

Flashing her diamante at a state dinner in Mexico, thats where. But not after spending the weekend in a $5,000 a night beachfront villa in that country with hubby Nicolas Sarkozy, much to the chagrin of the recession-striken French populous.

So not only did the première famille de france stick it to sixty million of their angriest citizens, they stuck it to...Givenchy, Dior, and Chanel. Way to go, Bruni and Sarko.
