The Obamas welcome the Camerons

The President and First Lady welcomed the Prime Minister of Great Britain, David Cameron and his wife Samantha to Washington DC this week.

Yesterday saw a dinner held in their honour at the White House, where Mrs Obama wore a off the shoulder blue Marchesa gown accessorised with strands of Tom Binn pearls.

Dr Jill Biden wore a strapless white chiffon gown.

Mrs Obama also held a preview of the dinner in the afternoon, wearing a sleeveless pale blue Zac Posen dress with a jewelled Saloni bird pin to accessorise.

All of Mrs Obama's looks had ties to Britain- Marchesa was created by British born Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig, and Saloni is a London based jewellry chain. Zac Posen also has ties to Central St Martin's.

The clear winner over the past two days- Mrs Obama by a mile!

Investment: Tory Burch Riding Boots

Author's Own

I've been meaning to share with you my new Tory Buch riding boots for several weeks now. Whilst spring is just around the corner, it is a little chilly here so still acceptable to wear them!

I scored a great deal on these at The Outnet, with over £200 off. I'd been looking at them for quite a while, seeing them in brown but really wanting the black. My shoe prayers were answered!
