Behind every great man

...is a fabulous, witty, fashion-forward woman.  Or at least in the case of the President.

 One night President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn’t too luxurious. When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the president’s secret service if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged and Michelle had a conversation with the owner. Following this conversation President Obama asked Michelle, “Why was he so interested in talking to you.” She mentioned that in her teenage years, he had been madly in love with her. President Obama then said, “So if you had married him, you would now be the owner of this lovely restaurant,” to which Michelle responded, “No. If I had married him, he would now be the President.”

Farewell to an Icon

... Elizabeth Taylor.  A screen siren with a body of work that spans over 70 years, a social activist, an icon, and my mommy's style inspiration.  One of the most beautiful and enchanting women of our times.
