It's no secret we're obsessed with all things French at TrèsSugar, and France's first lady, Carla Bruni, is no exception. But while she may be our favorite, the Daily Mail claims she was bested yesterday by Princess Letizia of Spain in style and beauty.
Carla accompanied President Nicolas Sarkozy to Spain to placate rumors that Spanish tempers ran high after a gaffe-y Sarkozy said Spanish Premier Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero was "not very smart." What better way to reach peace than to bring two beautiful faces from each country together?
I will insert an obligatory line about how both women are beautiful in their own right because, well, they are, but that takes me away from a problem I want to discuss. Beautiful women — Michelle Obama, Carla Bruni, and now Princess Letizia — are used to distract us from the political issues at hand. You know, like how President Sarkozy said something mean about the Spanish premier. Mon dieu!
Anyway, since the Daily Mail started it, I am going to finish. With a superior integration of the beauty-pageant-like sash and fortunate absence of a tiara, Carla reigns.

huh?
1i love the pic of the two of them walking away
the princess is sooooo skinny
2and carla has sick louboutins
I think they're both attractive, but Princess Letizia looks much too pageanty for my taste.
3They're both beautiful women with different styles.
Personally, I happen to align more with Carla Bruni. I prefer more quiet, elegant styles. That's my taste.
4The sashes and tiaras are too funny. It's like they are TRYING to make it into a beauty pageant. But with her updo and Louboutins, I think Carla wins. Since you asked.
5They both brighten up a room
My fave royal beauty is definitely Queen Rania of Jordan though
6Carla Bruni is so exquisitely gorgeous. That black gown is so simply gorgeous.
7Letizia looks like a Disney cartoon princess. But Disney animated princesses are beautiful, yes?
8But I vote for Carla.
On second thought, Letizia looks so beautiful in photo #2...And she is wearing a fleur de lis brooch, to honor the French. Pretty classy.
9Carla owned. Leti's face scares the hell out of me.
10Well Letizia is a real princess, so she can wear a tiara anytime, I'll be okay with that.
11Does anyone have an opinion on what it says about the country's leaders for marrying (having an affair with in the case of Carla) extremely attractive, young, and culturally popular women?
How would Americans feel if Obama divorced Michelle and married Beyonce a four months later?
12I saw these pics yesterday on one of the Spanish sites I read. I lived in Spain when Felipe married Letizia and I've always been a huge fan of the princess. She's a divorcee and ex-news broadcaster.
13Carla Bruni knows that simple and elegant works for her and she sticks to it. I admire her style. The Princess is beautiful as well, but a bit too "doll-looking" for me... Does that make sense?
I agree with Cordata. Queen Rania is exquisite! She even makes exercising look glamorous! ^__^
14I´ll vote for Letizia. I love Loubuotins, but not those ones. And I think the dark pink dress fits Letizia better than the blue one to Carla. And I love Letizia´s pink dress shoes.
