Di Carla Bruni si può dire qualunque cosa, ma non che sia priva di stile!
considerare carla bruni come si veste adesso un'icona di stile però è esagerato. sembra la regina elisabetta dei secchi (nel senso di magri). anacronistica. anche jackie onassis oggi lo sarebbe, inutile raccontarsela (e inutile continuare a dire che vi si ispira :p ). a ciascuno il suo tempo.
