First Lady Michelle Obama’s predilection for Prabal Gurung continued right up through Easter as she flaunted a light grey floral ensemble by Gurung as the First Family attended services at the St. John’s Episcopal Church. The oversized grey floral print with matching white coat has been seen before on Michelle Obama at the Smithsonian Institute two years ago and when she hosted George W. Bush and Laura Bush at the White House last June.

In her own unique way, Michelle Obama is cutting down on the carbon footprint by repurposing her stylish wardrobe in repeat performances. Daughters Sasha and Malia Obama were not far behind their mom in stylish mixed prints for this Easter Sunday.

Manson and Saint Laurent

Iconic fashion brand Saint Laurent Paris has gone through lots of changes in the past couple years. First, there was the name change from YSL to Saint Laurent Paris. Then, there was the unexpected crowning of Hedi Slimane as creative director. Now, Saint Laurent goes subversive rock n’ roll with new campaign ads featuring Courtney Love, Kim Gordon, Ariel Pink and, get this, Marilyn Manson.

The 44-year old creative director has always had penchant for rock music and for the upcoming Saint Laurent Paris ad campaigns entitled the “Saint Laurent Music Project,” Slimane gets to express this ongoing love affair with 90s rock.

Model Fatigue

Top Model Cara Delevinge admitted in this month’s Interview magazine that the hectic pace of modeling is getting to her. “Left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot … That’s all that’s on my mind at the moment, just walking — it’s mad. This modeling thing, it’s pretty easy, but actually it’s also really tough. I mean, this has been really tough.”

“I think when I started modeling three years ago, it was just a job, and I was so excited — everything was so new, so crazy. I didn’t overthink anything; I just did it and enjoyed myself along the way. But after a few seasons, you get used to it, and there’s a lot you actually have to think about, and, I don’t know, it just makes you much more aware of what you look like and what other people think. It’s a bit of a nightmare,” she continues.

Hmm, we should be so lucky. Also, look for her sexy, revealing editorial in this month’s Interview magazine.
