She's not as determined as Michelle Obama in public campaigns, she's not as vibrant as young Kate Middleton, yet, she's always been mentioned as the best first lady in terms of fashion.

Born in Italy, the art and architecuture major in college, former model in Paris, song writer, France's first lady, the 44-year-old Carla Bruni-Sarkozy seems born to be a fashion icon.

Unlike Michelle Obama, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy carries her stylish fashion in a more low-key manner -- favoring neutral colors and demure outfits.
