I swooned with everyone else over First Lady Michelle Obama is this gorgeous gold (or was it sterling silver? cream? "flesh?") gown by the fabulous designer Naeem Khan.
I went to Khan's amazing Spring 2010 presentation during fashion week and loved every minute of it. She couldn't have made a better choice.
Here is a look at some of the beautiful jewelry that she wore.

Like you, my invitation to tonight's White House State Dinner was lost in the mail (heh!) We will just have to be satisfied with checking out the guests (Alfre Woodard, Blair Underwood, Jennifer Hudson on vocals...) and poring over the menu (Green Curry Prawns, Pear Tatin...) prepared by "one of the finest chefs in the country," according to the first lady - and foodies everywhere, Marcus Samuelsson. If you are really into the details of all of this, look no further than Obama Foodorama.
I was lucky enough to see the unstoppable Jeffrey Osborne over the weekend at B.B. King's in New York. Look at the clip - his voice is just as perfect as you remember! My buddy Shannon Pearson, aka The Sangin Diva has been singing backup with Jeffrey for years and it was such a treat to finally see her in action! If I had remembered to charge my battery before the show, I would have had even better video, but I don't think the footage in the above clip is too bad for a woman who was also dancing and holding two phones and a glass of merlot.

So, it's true what they say: Iman is pretty damn flawless. I can hardly believe it took so long to meet her in person, but I can genuinely say that I was delighted (and I'm not just saying that because she complimented me on my RACHEL Rachel Roy dress!)
I met her in her office, smack dab in the middle of Manhattan's Garment District, where she walked me through some of the latest from her IMAN Global Chic collection for HSN. I was very pleased at how forthcoming she was about her collection and why she did it. She did not strike me as just another celebrity who puts their name on crap they would never been seen wearing in public. She was wearing a few of the pieces from her collection of course, but it wasn't very far-fetched - she was also wearing a $100 jacket from Zara! You've gotta love a woman who can go from couture to... anything she wants!
"Fashion is difficult," Iman told me as she explained the difficulty of obtaining quality fabrics in large quantities for a reasonable price. "I wanted to do something for everybody, affordable and chic, so that is why I chose accessories. It doesn't matter if you are a size 6 or a size 16, you can wear any beautiful bracelet or great shoes."
