I like her style in general especially her color palette but there is something, I don't know... like she is trying too hard. I actually have a similar body type - shirtwaisted, slimmer on the lower part of the body and a DD cup I definitely will pay attention to her style choices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64/page/2#post-1807499 Wed, 10 May 2017 23:24:56 +0000 MsMary 1807499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love her style and I think, to paraphrase Gloria Steinem at 40, "this is what 64 looks like!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64/page/2#post-1807458 Wed, 10 May 2017 20:33:17 +0000 Style Fan 1807458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't read the article just looked at the pictures.&nbsp; I like her style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64/page/2#post-1807235 Wed, 10 May 2017 05:34:07 +0000 Anonymous 1807235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She looks healthy and like a person who would be friendly and interesting to sit next to at a state dinner. I wish her the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1807222 Wed, 10 May 2017 03:32:16 +0000 Jaime 1807222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She looks like energy personified, which is always stylish. Yes Macron is the trophy husband, hee hee. Who cares if she looks younger or older or just her age - she looks like she knows her style and herself perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1807053 Tue, 09 May 2017 18:22:14 +0000 approprio 1807053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wait, wut??? Does this make Macron the ultimate trophy husband? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1807028 Tue, 09 May 2017 17:20:38 +0000 Scarlet 1807028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loved the pictures, thanks! Oh my goodness, if I could be bothered to do my hair every day I would run out right now and get that hair cut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806960 Tue, 09 May 2017 14:56:57 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1806960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that she looks great, and I her style is refreshing to see. She reminds me a bit of Jane Fonda (some time ago, that is).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806934 Tue, 09 May 2017 14:23:32 +0000 Sara L. 1806934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting photos - I didn't actually read the article. &nbsp;I think she looks good although I don't think she looks particularly young for her age. &nbsp;She has a beautiful smile and seems to be enjoying her life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806928 Tue, 09 May 2017 14:14:05 +0000 ClaraT 1806928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like her style and I like her smile. I don't think it matters one bit whether she looks older or younger than her age--who on earth is the reference? Every age has a range of looks, and I think she looks beautiful (even though the deep tan isn't my cup o tea in general). Good luck to both her and her husband in the coming months/years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806917 Tue, 09 May 2017 14:04:41 +0000 texstyle 1806917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>minimalist - thanks for the other link - a much less tainted view of her style. :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806912 Tue, 09 May 2017 13:55:06 +0000 Aquamarine 1806912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She seems confident and proud of her age. Good for her. It will be fun to watch her on the world stage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806879 Tue, 09 May 2017 12:45:14 +0000 Anonymous 1806879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you notice all the above the knee dresses and skirts?<br /> I like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806832 Tue, 09 May 2017 11:09:06 +0000 viva 1806832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, it's funny, I thought her style seemed quite Parisian -- the heels with jeans, the lack of pattern, the leather pants, the sophisticated coats, etc. But I could be wrong. Anyway, I think she has great style, whatever it is. Really chic.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806789 Tue, 09 May 2017 07:50:12 +0000 Ledonna N. 1806789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did not read the article because it's vapid. I liked her style and she looks good. Good on her for finding someone to love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806785 Tue, 09 May 2017 07:44:33 +0000 Sal 1806785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish them both the best of luck. &nbsp;A challenging time to take over as President (not that there is ever an easy time!) &nbsp;I think she has a lovely smile and she has some great pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806780 Tue, 09 May 2017 07:12:45 +0000 rachylou 1806780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had no idea there was such an age gap. Actually, I never thought about Macron having a wife or not, lol. I think - I think it's not quite that she doesn't look her age, but that her style is rather American. She's an American 64. And we suffer greatly from neotony, us Americans. I mean, how old am I and I'm like turning 'Forever 21' for maybe the 20th year now? Lol. I mean, I use the filler *like*, lol...</p> <p>On the other hand, or in keeping, I have no problems with her style. I find it quite satisfactory for a First Lady. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806770 Tue, 09 May 2017 06:29:18 +0000 Jane 1806770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me, she looks super happy and confident. i like that she wears clothes that seem quite normal albeit designer labels. I haven't seen that many presidents wives in jeans for example. I wondered if she was the same age as Anna Wintour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806763 Tue, 09 May 2017 05:55:39 +0000 Mel 1806763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way she plays with textures and neutrals. A subdued and chic style. I'm not sure I'd call it French chic, though. French chic authors are always harping on how "natural" is better, and her bleachy hair, dark tan, and obvious eye liner move her a little away from that category. But today's style is all about individualism so it's interesting to see a French role model embracing it, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Her structured jackets are marvelous, but they seem to give her a "short-necked effect" in some of the photographs. Maybe it's the combination of the big bob and the heavily structured shoulders.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806749 Tue, 09 May 2017 05:06:34 +0000 Gigi 1806749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This was a nice selection of pics covering her style. I'm glad that she's not afraid to wear what she wants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806562 Mon, 08 May 2017 23:13:53 +0000 Angie 1806562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A BREATH OF FRESH AIR.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm nodding along with Texstyle, Xtabay, Cindy and Runcarla.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806559 Mon, 08 May 2017 23:03:40 +0000 minimalist 1806559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a pre-election article with more photos (a few are the same) and a more nuanced reading of her style choices. </p> <p><a href="http://madame.lefigaro.fr/style/brigitte-macron-un-style-de-premiere-dame-190417-131010" rel="nofollow">http://madame.lefigaro.fr/styl.....417-131010</a></p> <p>I don't find the DailyMail's marked-up photo with speculation points in especially good taste. But DailyMail's gonna DailyMail, whatcha gonna do?</p> <p>Energy -wise, this age pairing is likely far more compatible over longer time than more commonly practiced couplings are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806556 Mon, 08 May 2017 22:47:12 +0000 Janet 1806556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed with Cindy. </p> <p>Oh, the Daily Fail... :-/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806555 Mon, 08 May 2017 22:46:20 +0000 Carla 1806555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that she is smiling so broadly in her pics. She looks genuinely happy in them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806540 Mon, 08 May 2017 22:22:56 +0000 cindysmith 1806540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that she looks her age (and there isn't a damned thing wrong with that, she looks lovely). However, I also agree that in spite of the garbage that the article spewed, it DID have a good collection of pics of her style. And I do like her style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806534 Mon, 08 May 2017 22:00:58 +0000 Anonymous 1806534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She sure has a head of hair, doesn't she?&nbsp; Wow.</p> <p>Very fashionable woman, very much the chic Parisienne.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806525 Mon, 08 May 2017 21:44:47 +0000 Minnie 1806525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>texstyle, yes I agree she dresses casual and some outfits are quite "youthful".<br /> I do like that.<br /> Except that leather mini-skirt, which I find a tad too short to wear with bare legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806510 Mon, 08 May 2017 20:46:18 +0000 JAileen 1806510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking she actually looked older than her age. I'm glad to see the woman older than the man, for a change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806506 Mon, 08 May 2017 20:37:01 +0000 texstyle 1806506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lisap - Ha!&nbsp; Well he is 39 and she is 64. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frances-new-first-lady---her-fashion-at-64#post-1806504 Mon, 08 May 2017 20:27:18 +0000 texstyle 1806504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Minnie - I know what you mean about the content of the article and the speculation was ridiculous. But it came from another news link and the content as I mentioned wasn't my point - it was a good collection of images of her outfits which I enjoyed, probably because a fair number of them were casual. </p>
