Will Queen Rania Carry a Sarah's Bag to Today's 'The Big Read' Speech at the National Press Club?

QUEEN RANIA'S SPEECH AT THE LAUNCH OF GLOBAL ACTION WEEK 2009 - WASHINGTON DC, USA

Will Queen Rania Carry a Sarah's Bag to Today's 'The Big Read' Speech at the National Press Club?

Queen Rania is in Washington D.C. with her husband King Abdullah, presently meeting with Vice President Joe Biden, and preparing to meet with President Obama at 10am.

No word on whether Michelle and Queen Rania will meet. A Google search is nada. I am crushed if these two women don’t at least share a cup of coffee.

I want these two Smart Sensuality women to ‘hook up’ now. Putting Queen Rania and First Lady Michelle Obama together is total Smart Sensuality combustion.

The Big Read

Queen Rania is speaking this morning at the National Press Club, as part of a global action week calling for quality basic education for all children.

The press conference will launch ‘The Big Read’, a collection of short stories written by education advocates around the world including Queen Rania, Nelson Mandela, Natalie Portman, Alice Walker, Ishmael Baeh and many more. ‘The Big Read’ is part of GCE’s global action week with the goal of bringing attention to literacy and the millions of children around the world not able to go to school.

To learn more, go to The Big Read at Global Campaign for Education.

One of the goals in writing about Smart Sensuality women is not only to get the concept of the sensual, intelligent, socially committed women front and center in our minds, but to help business, advertisers and media understand the Smart Sensuality woman as a consumer.

Meet Sarah’s Bag

This BBC News story Lebanon’prison chic’ goes global is an excellent example of the relationship between the Cultural Creative women and shopping.

Steven Klein Captured Amber Valletta & Co in Loewe S/S 2009 Campaign

It easy enough to think that this provocative, photographer Steven Klein S/S 2009 fashion campaign was for Versace. That would be incorrect.

Models Amber Valletta, Chad White and Garaf Neff enjoyed posing in this seductive fashion campaign for Loewe. Acquired fully in 1996 by LVMH, Loewe seemed to be very inspired by the Tom Ford years at Gucci [1994-2004] in this collection.
