Style showdown: Michelle Obama vs. Charlize Theron

Yesterday, Mrs Obama donned an awesome gray, gathered Lanvin dress to celebrate International Women's Day at the White House. The metallic pointy-toe pumps she paired with it work perfectly—she looks chic yet totally professional.

Meanwhile, stunner Charlize Theron rocked her Lanvin—shortened and in movie-star gold lamé, natch—to the premiere of The Burning Plain in France last year. With so much metal going on, she wisely chose to complement the dress with simple black accessories.
