Hina Rabbani Khar, a true fashionista

Her Birkin bag and Roberto Cavalli shades got tongues wagging and the media hailed her as the latest style icon.
Hina Rabbani Khar apparently went back miffed to Pakistan as she wanted to be known for her political prowess rather than the bag that costs a whopping Rs 17 lakh!
While the First Ladys of the United States, the wives of prime Ministers and the numerous Princesses across the world are usually hailed or trashed for their fashion sense, it’s the first time that a foreign minister – Pakistani at that – has been in the spotlight.This trendy 34-year-old is known for her style and possibly more than others.
But did you know that she’s also a mother and owns a restaurant in Peshawar? She’s not just about labels, she’s sporty too – she treks and plays polo. In fact, her restaurant is called ‘Polo Lounge’. Looks like there’s more to Ms Khar than just the Birkin bag!
