You-Can't-Make-This-Stuff-Up Department: Michelle Obama beats Carla Bruni to style award

The French fashion world has dealt a new blow to Nicolas Sarkozy’s desire to upstage President Obama: Elle magazine, the Parisiennes’ style bible, has proclaimed that Michelle Obama is more chic than Carla Bruni.

The magazine’s annual best-dressed list, unveiled yesterday, awarded first place in the category of “political chic” to America’s First Lady, and second to France’s Première Dame. It is the second year in a row that Ms Bruni, 42, has come second on the list; last year Elle put her behind Asma Assad, the British-born wife of the Syrian President.

Last year Carla was Elle runner up to that chick from Syria. What does that tell ya’? LOL

Totally elegant! Are those Michael Jordan’s feet?

All she needs now is the red suit to go with the belt...white beard optional.

What's wrong with her right boob? Looks as if it has gone missing.

As to the butt photo. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. It's too revealing, plus we can see her thong lines.

Something has to be up in the political scene. There has to be some logical explanation why Elle would place mooshelle over Carla. How much has Elle been paid by the obamas?
There's just no way the french could even consider mooshelle as having any type of class or be in their league. The French are snobs. Why are they kissing mooshelle?

The belt is not tight enough. She is still able to move about and cause trouble for many people.

. . . . #100.

Now I’m confused. Which one is the Clydesdale?

Bernanke warned there was some risk of deflation.....

Oh hell...never saw this pic, post 43

I wish I did not.

Doc Brown warned me not to screw up the space time continuum!

Photos of a First Lady will live longer than she does.

I know of what you speak I have some pictures of me where I too thought I was looking good when I was really looking goofy.

[kempo]

Would someone please buy the first lady a sweeter that’s not three sizes too small.

[nutmeg]

ROTFL!

[Rushmore Rocks]

I have never ever seen any First Lady dressed that way in public. I would not go out in public looking like that. (at home is a different story) I am ashamed of her and embarrassed for her.

Sorry, but she FAILS fashion big time! She is supposed to represent our national pride and she comes off looking like a south side street walker.

[Neverforget01]

I wonder who the judges were?

[CAluvdubya]

Whoa, Fuddy! I have only just seen the back of our Ringmaster FLOTUS! She is certainly not doing herself any favors!

SoCal, maybe we can take to our next counter protest and use her backside as a sign!

[Palladin]

Lord have mercy!

Roscoe, you are killing me!

[azishot]

Which one is the Clydesdale?

Clydesdale's are beautiful....'nuf said.
