NxtUp...First Ladies
Michelle Obama
"Tuesday, First Lady Michelle Obama took off for London wearing an ivory Thakoon coat, then changed clothes on the plane before arriving in a chartreuse Jason Wu dress.
By this morning, for a breakfast with Prime Minister Gordon Brown's wife, Sarah, and a visit to a cancer center, Obama had jettisoned the high-priced designer labels in favor of more fiscally conscious J. Crew -- a cheery, crystal-studded ivory cardigan and mint green jacquard pencil skirt".
British media heaped praise on Mrs. Obama on the eve of the summit. One outlet, London's Evening Standard newspaper, is said to have referred to her as the "mighty Michelle," and a "welcome dash of class" in the British capital.
French journalist Agnes Poirier described the U.S. first couple as "very alluring and very sophisticated." She told U.S. television, CBS News, "that plays well with the French."
