Samantha Cameron Attends Burberry, McQ Shows At London Fashion Week 2012 (PHOTOS)

The UK's first lady, Samantha Cameron, never attempts to hide her interest in A-list fashion shows. In fact, style is part of her job: she's the ambassador for the British Fashion Council, after all.

Last year, SamCam sat front row at Christopher Kane and other shows, and she also threw a Fashion Week party at 10 Downing Street that was graced by the likes of Anna Wintour and Tom Ford.

And this year, she continues her sartorial streak, popping up at A-list shows and hanging with fashion's biggest names.

In a Jonathan Saunders green top paired with a black suit, she perched front row at both Burberry and Christopher Kane shows on Sunday. Later, she attended the first ever McQ runway show in a gorgeous pink frock and camped out next to Anna Wintour and Salma Hayek -- the latter of who was attending her first ever London Fashion Week show.

We can't wait to see where SamCam will show up next!

Dang, and I was actually hoping it was OUR First um Lady...God knows she is in desperate need of some fashion help. Why was she in Aspen with her daughters skiing when there is so much more she could be doing that would be better for her position, rather than taking another free vacation on the taxpayer's dime! I'd certainly let a fashion show or two slide by for the good of the country, simply to teach her how women of class are supposed to look and behave. I'm just so tired of seeing her looking like she buys everything off of the clearance rack at some cheap department store!

It's all about issues, mine and yours.

Had Mrs. Obama been in the front row of this fashion show she would have been in London. And, as you so graciously pointed out at "taking another free vacation on the taxpayer's dime!" What does it matter where she goes? She was spending time with her daughters she should be. Mrs. Obama has said exactly where she buys her clothes, some coming from J. Crew, and she always is dressed appropriately.

Oh very well done Beth!

An entire paragraph without a single objective fact or truth!
That's some going!

*stands to applaud*

Why does the media think everyone needs a nickname, esp. a stupid one?
09:39 PM on 02/21/2012
Why are the models wearing ankle restraints? Shackles? Good grief--those are SHOES? I'll stick with my boring pumps, thank you. At least I won't look like I just escaped from a prison barge.

From the headline, I thought the writer of this story meant the U.S.'s first lady. I was thinking that would be great. Maybe she will learn something and quit wearing those stupid belts. She is too short waisted to wear them. All replies go to my Spam folder and I delete them.

Oh that first lady. Makes more sense since our first lady spent President's Day weekend with her daughters skiing in Aspen.

Typical H/P headline, notice they didn't say British First Lady.

How bitchy of you. Get out much?
04:08 AM on 02/23/2012
Its like Ive stepped into a parallel world where left is right and up is down.

What's wrong with the way Michelle dresses.

Perhaps your gag reflex is faulty?
06:16 PM on 02/21/2012
our first lady should be sitting on the stage.. maybe then she can get a clue on how to dress!
07:51 PM on 02/21/2012
She would be an embarrassment in her tacky goodwill clothing - not that I have anything against goodwill - you just need to know how to shop. She does not.
08:23 PM on 02/21/2012
I thought she purchased them from Target.
04:05 AM on 02/23/2012
So she wears couture gowns and she's an elitist.

She wears JCrew and she's a 'tacky goodwill' shopper.

Why not just be honest and admit that even if YOU dressed her, you'd still hate her.
08:17 PM on 02/21/2012
I was thinking the same thing. Too bad it wasn't Michelle Obama. She is an embarrassment.

British women, by and large (no pun intended) are just plain homely. This one is no exception.
10:05 PM on 02/21/2012
In your opinion, I hope. I find nothing to justify that as a factual statement.
08:41 AM on 02/22/2012
It is only my opinion, of course. But it was developed by studying in the UK for one year and then later working in the UK for a British company for two years.
05:48 PM on 02/21/2012
Soon America will have a first lady we can once again be proud of.
