Today's Washington Times has a front-page story on Michelle Obama's fashion throw-down with Carla Bruni: can she win with American designers and yet still not look elitist? *facepalm*
I thought they were wonderful together, and that it was very sweet. It seems to be mostly Americans who are insanely upset about this, because the Guardian thought it was pretty cool (my workmates were gossiping about it this morning, and I read them part of the Guardian article).
