Une Belle Époque - I've been to a White House party or two, but none so splendid as a State Dinner for a foreign head of state. The event honoring French President Francois Hollande did not disappoint. The glitz, the glamour, the caviar! But nothing was dishier than First Lady Michelle Obama, pictured here with President Obama and Hollande. She ruled the night in a black and liberty blue confection created by Venezuelan-American designer Carolina Herrera. The guest list included several members of the crème de la crème of African-American leadership. Here's how they rolled. —Joyce Jones (@BETpolitichick) (Photo: AP Photo/ Evan Vucci)
