Is there even a politician who dresses worse than Rishi Sunak? Everything he wears is 3 sizes too small. He looks preposterous. The dude has everything to look distinguished and serious but he chooses not to. I don’t get it.
Giorgia Meloni, on the other hand, appeared in a powder pink number today that left me breathless. Are these politicians enacting stereotypes about their countries through the clothes they wear?

I’m not a fan of either politically but I think Rishi Sumak is very handsome and I love how he dresses. I think he has that early 60s vibe. And as far as Meloni goes…are you talking about that wide legged pink suit? I thought she looked silly. Not like a serious politician at all. She’s pretty but I never think she looks like a head of state. To me, she dresses like a lady at a make up counter. But again, not a fan of either.

I’d like to go to the place where you buy makeup. The women at the local Sephora look invariably grimy.

Oh I agree. Sephora is depressing. I’m talking about a nice department store. Some place like Nordstrom or Neimun Marcus. The women there look pretty…just not like heads of state. (I don’t understand the appeal of Sephora. If I’m going to buy makeup in person, I’m going to give myself a luxury experience. If I want to buy cheap and fast makeup, I’ll go to Walgreens or CVS. Most of the time, I buy makeup online.)

“Sumak is very handsome and I love how he dresses. I think he has that early 60s vibe.”
He’s a mod! All he needs is a trenchcoat and a vespa revved for all its worth as he tries to get away from a bunch of rockers.
“wide legged pink suit?”
The width wasn’t bad but the bottom was traipsing on the ground…
“enacting stereotypes about their countries through the clothes they wear?”
Yeah, travel around Europe and the best dressers are inevitably Italians (French and Spanish close behind) and the Brits are the worst… especially British women seem to have trouble grasping concepts like ‘flattering’ or ‘age appropriate’….

British women are so beautiful, with that skin tone, stunning. But yes, the way they dress is… unfortunate.

My sister and I were joshing about Charles’ coronation and all the photos from that… where the only people who looked like they made any effort to dress up at all were the delegations from Africa. Everybody else kinda looked like another day at the office, maybe out to sell some real estate…

When the people of Britain pray for their prime minister, they pray that he finds pants that reach his ankles

Snack splits the difference between dressing like a British technocrat and a California venture capitalist.
And you wouldn’t believe how much it costs.
But one in a series of Tory disappointments, with the biggest being Boris Johnson, not Liz Truss.
Remember how it was Boris who would lead Britain into a great new era, only to undermine Brexit and get shuffled off without a positive legacy?
Now with Snack, they don’t even try to promise that much.
And it is Snack, I’ve asked some Japanese and they tell me so, looking confused when I try to say “soonaako” as if I’m trying to find a way around his name being Snack.
So Rishi Snack it is. 🙂

I think Boris has a phenomenal legacy. He’s a hero in Ukraine. The only Westerner with a hold vision for the future. That the Brits have turned into a bunch of whiny limp-wristed cows who can’t notice greatness is their loss.
Sorry, Brits, but I’m coming off a week of watching crazy people rage in the streets of London, and it’s hard to give my ch respect to this.
