Carla Sarkozy (née Bruni)

Bruni Seems like I’m the only one disappointed by what France’s first lady wore this week. With one bright exception, it was all dowdy, boring, unflattering, and terribly aging. I would have loved to have seen her break out one or two of her vintage catwalk looks for this trip. What a waste of beauty and allure.

Comments

I couldn't agree more. She looks pasty and dowdy. And those clothes look like she bought them at the Liz Claiborne outlet. There isn't any wit in sight.

You're crazy, she looked classy!

I thought she looked boring, too. I also didn't like the whole Kidman/Cruise effect... he wears high heels, she wears flats in order not to dent his male ego. At least that's how I saw it.

  • What do you get when you throw a true beauty obsessive in Europe together with a veteran beauty journalist in LA? Not much room on the bathroom shelves, that's for sure. Make-up, hair products, skincare, perfume, salons, spas, luxury hotels with toiletries and treatments that make us never want to go home - if we've left anything out, you can pry our mirrors from our cold, dead, perfectly manicured hands.
