That’s the first thing I thought too, a teleprompter.

Or perhaps its a backup mirror. (No, not a replacement mirror for makeup. A backup mirror. The kind with the “objects may appear farther away” label on them).

I guess whoever dresses her is a Republican, because they sure aren’t telling her to lose the belts and sweaters. A couple of times, I’ve seen pictures of her wearing clothes that look fine on her, but that is seldom.

Isn’t it too early for spring colors?

You know the first time I saw this picture I thought she had a hankie in her hand and she was holding it behind her. I put my glasses on and said “what the hell”. Horrible as usual.

Oh my gosh.... Rome...... great...... I’m about the BO’s height and age... when I traveled in Italy in my early 30s, I made sure I was dressed appropriately -— and I was certainly no dignitary, just a grad student!!

To me it looks like the top and skirt are two different shades. One looks slightly more green than the other.

The red and white (or pink?) dress would have been cute on a woman weighing 40 pounds less than Michelle. On her, it looks like she split out the back and her slip is showing.

“They sure did use air brushing for Mechelle in this shot.”

I thought exactly the same thing!

I cannot understand this woman. No woman I know wants to purposely look that bad. And, I sure cannot stomach seeing the outline of the president's wife's bra through her clothing. I mean, come on now, how vulgar. Not that she has anything to show off, her bust is not an attribute anyway.

And,then we have the belt...why, why, why? Again no purpose, and it is cheap and ugly looking. Sweater, too small, showing off her massive linebacker arms and shoulders. This woman can look nice, a few times she has. Why does she appear like she just took her clothes off a rack at the thrift shop and dressed in the dark with no mirror?

Then, she tries to make herself look feminine with a string of pearls that look like she just threw them on when she realized the rest of the outfit was so bad, trying to class it up. Did not work. The woman has NO FASHION SENSE, and those who say otherwise are simply like the people in the story "the Emperor's New Clothes." They are afraid to state the obvious...wouldn't be PC for them.

Michelle looks like hoochi mama instead of First Lady!

Sad but true. She really needs a few weeks in a finishing schhol.

Seriously.

~LOL~ caught my eye, too, along with the sleeves on the sweater being too tight and wondering how long before she forgets she’s wearing a skirt and we learn she isn’t wearing panties.... followed by how huge her ass is.
