Style Points

The competition for world's most photographed woman, 2016, is still going neck and neck entering the far turn. Britain's Theresa May is giving Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel a run for the money as they meet to talk about the money and migration at an E.U. Summit conference in Brussels.

The two pictures could not be more unalike. There's Ms. Merkel looking all serious sitting down reading prepared remarks. And there's Ms. May, looking a bit flirtatious with her pearls and nicely buttoned tailored jacket, getting her hand squeezed by Ireland's Prime Minister Edna Kenny. No further evidence is needed to alert you to the fact the world has changed than to see the Irish making nice with the British.


And based on the man in the middle of the above photo, Alexis Tsipras, the Prime Minister of Greece, we may have to open up a newly created category: Best Looking Foreign Leader Without
A Necktie.

Anyone who has ever been to a diner in New York City, or really anywhere in the tristate area, even upstate New York, will know that diners are predominately owned by Greeks. And the Greek male is a bit of peacock, always checking themselves out in the mirror, finger parting their hair (if they have any), sucking their teeth clean, and most of all, twirling their chest hairs, all while passing a mirror and retrieving the pie, cheesecake, chocolate cake, or rice pudding from the display cabinet.

If Prime Minister Alexis was so bold as to open up one more button on his nicely pressed dress shirt, tufts of well groomed chest hairs would puff up under the shirt. Guaranteed.

The competition will be interesting.
