Let's play first lady of France dressup. Carla looks every bit the part after a visit to the Met in New York — Bentley in tow. I wish I could browse endless walls of art wearing an origami folded neck skirt suit, Tod's flats, and a perfect little Dior bag.

Carla Bruni Sarkozy is gracing the cover of
Vanity Fair this month, for their special September style issue, photographed by Annie Leibovitz.
The
ultra stylish former model, and singer, is looking typically polished. I am in slight awe at the shininess of her hair.

Who's the fairest of them all? Vanity Fair has that answer for you. The magazine's
annual style poll is hot off the press and ready for your judging pleasure.

The first lady of France Carla Bruni stepped out to celebrate Bastille Day on Monday with her husband Nicolas Sarkozy. She wore two outfits, firstly a violet dress with a cropped jacket and then later she changed in to a navy silk dress both by Dior by John Galliano. She made contacts with fashion houses during her twelve year modeling career.

Though his visit
ended amid panic, France's Nicolas Sarkozy's first presidential visit to Israel this week made quite an impression. Sarkozy
called on the country to stop settlement in the occupied West Bank, saying Mideast peace depends on Israel dropping its refusal to surrender sovereignty over parts of Jerusalem claimed by the Palestinians. As compensation, he assured Israel that it could count on France's support in halting Iran's nuclear program.

In the new book Carla and Nicolas, the True Story readers get an inside look at the seven-month relationship between French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his Italian singer first-lady wife Carla Bruni.
Carlita and Sarko met at dinner party, which they attended as each other's blind date. Carla's former lover Luc Ferry was there, too.

Carla Bruni has struck the whole the world with her amazing transformation from model into the leading Lady of France. You've probably noticed she's switched out her platforms for flats; but that doesn't mean Carla's compromised her style. This First Lady of France has an elegance and grace that demands attention, even from the Queen herself!

It seems slightly wrong to spend the majority of Nicolas Sarkozy's visit to the UK discussing his wife's wardrobe. But when a President marries a supermodel, fashion and politics collide and suddenly fashionistas become interested in the news! From the moment Carla Bruni
landed on British soil her outfits have been under constant scrutiny from the press, but the feedback has been mainly positive.
First ladies are everywhere! France's first lady, Carla Bruni, channeled a certain American first lady yesterday when she arrived in Great Britain. Hillary Clinton's travels with Sinbad as first lady (especially her
recollection of them) are all over the news.

Carla Bruni has arrived in England with her husband French President Nicolas Sarkozy. They were greeted by Prince Charles and his wife Camilla Parker-Bowles, but the real question is, what did she wear?! Well, Carla looked uncharacteristically sombre for the occasion wearing a Dior long grey coat with clinched in waist and matching pillbox hat teamed with black flats.
