Michelle O wears $2700 sweater
Washington Free Beacon ^ | May 2, 2012 | Washington Free Beacon Staff

The first closet has increasingly become a subject of interest since Michelle Obama swept fashionably into the White House in her Jason Wu ball gown.

Yesterday, Ann Romney’s clothes stole the spotlight as she wore a fashionable top on Tuesday for an appearance with her husband on CBS “This Morning.” Politico reported that the Reed Krakoff shirt would “cost you a pretty penny,” at $990.

But Mrs. Romney will need to step up her fashion game if she wants to fill the shoes of Mrs. Obama.

In March, the first lady visited her British counterpart Samantha Cameron wearing a L’Wren Scott sweater in a trendy bright yellow hue. The embellished cardigan costs $2,720.

Obama, widely regarded as a fashion icon, likes the brand so much that she wore a peach cardigan from the same line last week during the Take Your Child to Work Day festivities.

Ok, to be fair ... I've walked by the outside of this wing; never through it. Estrogen rich environment.

So, I let my wife walk through that display and found something else to look at while she went through. Like Eddy Van Halen’s guitar, Archie Bunker's chair, Farah Fawcit’s Swimsuit and the Ruby Slippers from Wizard of Oz.

No matter what she wears she looks like she belongs in one of those “People of Wal-Mart” e-mails.

When you spend most of your life hating your country it shows especially in the face. All that hate alters the facial tissues.

That peach sweater she has on in the article photo looks like something you could get from the Blair catalog.

“Obama, widely regarded as a fashion icon,”

You can dress a sow in silk, but she’s still a sow.

I shop twice a year at one of our “better” second hand stores. It’s amazing what people donate for resale and lots with the original tag still on the garment. Most of my purchases for my daughter-in-law and I have the top fashion label names but I have never paid more than $20 for anything - which is my self-imposed limit. I did, however, notice last Christmas when I went on one of my sprees that there wasn’t quite as much to choose from and one of my friends who works at the resale shop said that donations, particularly of clothing, were really down. Donations of fine china, old family furniture, crystal and silver were up.

Only to the press. What is that phrase about "Repeat a lie often enough ...,"?
