Carla Bruni scoops Vanity Fair cover

Well, she's taken on everyone else, right? Yes, Carla Bruni knocked the Supermodel reunion off the cover of Sept. Vanity Fair Style issue . Some of the VF Supermodels shots now inside are shown.

I am still trying to figure out all the gaga-ness over Carla. Yes she is beautiful, but I recall all her model/ rock star girlfriend heydays. You know breaking Eric Clapton's heart when she cheated on him with Mick Jagger, whose marriage she supposedly was the last straw for. Jerry not being so fond of her and Mick. Then they say she then dated Donald Trump. Well when one then lands a Prime Minister, I guess it is time to stop and stay. Thats super upworldly mobile my friends.

So lets address the stylish part. She is not Jackie O. Everyone tries to be, none will be. Furthermore, how could she not be stylish? She has long legs, high cheekbones, was a model for years , has unlimited funds and just decided to make Dior her wardrobe of choice. That would work for me. Hey, that would make anyone stylish.

I think I may be one of the only people not that impressed
with her UK tour clothes. Yes I loved the pillbox hat. But the grey thing was dowdy, sorry. Yes it was conservative, but incredibly boring .She could have at least worn a big brooch. Her navy blue State Dinner ballgown was equally boring. I hope if I get to State Dinner I can do a bit better than that.

Ok, she was worried about protocol, after hours of tutoring on it, and she needed to put every foot right, but it was still boring. Her safari inspired choices of late have been much better. For VF she is doing her best Lady of The Manor. It looks good, but ,umm, hasn't this been done a few times before? Like Angelina Jolie in 2005 inside the pages of VF?

Now- will I buy this issue? Yes. It's the style issue and one of the only magazines I don't subscribe too. Will you ?
