I like the photo in group #2 where Michelle is, once again, wearing two cardigans at the same time.

Speechless

[evets]

LOL ! Right back at ya'!

[Da Coyote]

DILLIGAFF...Do I look like I give a flying.......?

[ElayneJ]

I wish they wouldn’t do things like this. IMO, Michelle is an attractive woman, and sometimes she looks lovely, but a fashion icon she’s not, and the press just shows itself to be a fawning sycophant when it says that she is.

[scottdeus12]

Does she use conditioner? You be the judge.....

(Demonstrating her famous 'Gotta big turd and gonna squeeze it out' dance to other first ladies)

(The tripple lux BeDazzler Boob Belt. A true fashion icon.)

[Jewbacca]

“Michelle is an attractive woman”

To horse flies, perhaps.

[TheConservativeParty]

Speaking of her cardigans, what the heck is up with all the times she buttoned them unevenly? It seems it was done on purpose. I don’t get that at all.

The huge belt thing too, she does that all the time.

In a very classic and simple dress she looks nice. Some stupid fashion advisor is probably giving her really bad advice and outfits to wear. Either that or she needs a full length mirror.

[freekitty]

She is ridiculous

[Jewbacca]

Wookies are kind, attractive people.

Michelle is no Wookie.

[scottdeus12]

“Wookies are kind, attractive people.”

LOL!

Now there's a man's man. Especially compared to the one on the left (who may also be a man's man).

[pallis]

Michelle’s entourage of primping pimps might be the only real job creation accomplished by the despotic duo of Camelot pop. They certainly come cheaper than the beneficiaries of the stimulus scam, and their jobs seem secure. Michelle will always need all the help she can get.

[hsmomx3]

I do not know who is advising her but it is awful. She is no Jackie when it comes to fashion.

[autumnraine]

Notice the black widow dress is missing from their collection.

I just had to go to the link and read this clap-trap. (Why do I do these things to myself!?)

Maybe it’s like the old expression, “I don’t know anything about art, but I know what I like”. Raina Kelly, the author, tells me many wonderful things about MO that I just am not seeing. Did you know that she is “graceful”, that she has a great waistling — thus the belts, which Ms. Kelly tells me MO wears just right.

I am far from a fashionista, but, as a woman, I have always tended to choose garments that are somewhat current but are flattering for my particular figure and age. But, apparently, I just don’t know much about fashior because I think MO looks ghastly most of the time.

[Bigg Red]

waistling = waistline

[Bigg Red]

...wearing two cardigans at the same time.

***
Did you notice that the author praises this look and vows to “copy” it.

Bizarro World here. Every fashion faux-pas MO commits is touted as stylish by this writer.

[luckystarmom]

I think you have said this brilliantly.

[BP2]

It MIGHT be possible to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear ...


... but she's still a pig.

[norwaypinesavage]

It is hard to tell which is funnier, Michelle’s clown costumes, or Newsweek’s fawning coverage of them. I guess we can just laugh at both.

[Fu-fu2]

Looks like Newsweak didn’t get the memo—the emperor (and empress) have no clothes.....

[NoDRodee]

She is so AWESOME, unlike Sarah Palin who is discusting. sarc.

[ElayneJ]

Thank you. :)

[azishot]

Accentuate that waist??? Hour glass figure??? Belts on the waist are hot??? (Does she really have a waist?)

Which one is supposed to apply to her?

I’m so depressed and sad now.....

[Dan(9698)]

what the heck is up with all the times she buttoned them unevenly?

She has extra buttons or button holes.

[uncitizen]

judging by picture #8 i’m concerned the woman is color blind. (no pun)

[LucyT]

Here is the person who dresses Michelle 0bama:

[monocle]

And I thought I felt an earthquake.

[Jewbacca]

"what the heck is up with all the times she buttoned them unevenly?"

I don't know what yoooou, mean, Master!

[LucyT]

[when the time is right]

Like Mammy said to Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind...”just a mule in horse harness”.

[Palladin]

YIKES!

Everyday is Halloween for this gal.

[sweetiepiezer]

That is an insult to pigs.

[GloriaJane]

Yuck! No wonder Michelle dresses funny!

If that’s the person who’s been dressing her then it all makes, ...... wait! no it doesn’t! She should fire them!
