[Lucky9teen]

First lady Michelle Obama speaks to children of executive office employees in the East Room of the White House in Washington, Thursday, April 23, 2009, during the White House's annual 'Take Your Child to Work Day.'

She is the beauty blooper of the year.....Doesn’t she look at fashion magazines????????

[Freedom56v2]

That’s the same ugly big bow blouse she wore when she took European fashion by storm!!!

Hadn’t noticed that...

OK, I will ask the question...is she pregnant?

[Hoffer Rand]

I’m telling you, she’s recycling old truck tread fresh from some blowout on the freeway. Whoever told her hiking her belt up under her armpits was in ANY way flattering should be horse-whipped.

Why are the kids wearing jackets?

Going Green means keeping the heat off except in the oval office :(

I think someone gave her that studded leather belt when all the hideous torture weapons were removed from Gitmo.

They could station her at the finish line at Indy this year. That sweater would stop every race car pronto.

What is it with her and those cotton picking belts which do nothing for her? She looks like someone who needs to be on What Not to Wear.

Whats with the belt? She has a thick middle. The mix of patterns is awful, and all the different layers hanging out at the bottom just looks plain sloppy.

I often wear a narrow belt over a longer sweater, but I have a very small waist.

This cuts her figure in the wrong place, and looks ridiculous.

She should follow the Laura Bush example : the simpler, the better. Laura is a very pretty woman, which doesn’t hurt.

If she knew that the argyle patterns she favors on sweaters were originated by a Scottish clan as the Campbell tartan, she might not want to wear them so often, given her animus towards pink people. I'm expecting her fashion advisors to break out the Kente cloth in the second 100 days.

Ah! Michelle looks very pretty, her usual self. True to her form
All she needs now is an Elizabethan collar, one white shoe and a flopping pointy hat with a ball at the end.

Someone needs to steal that belt, take it behind the shed, shoot it and bury it. Better yet burn it so Michelle can't dig it up. She's a professional gardener, ya know! LOL

[Albion Wilde]

OH gawd I have the exact same sweater, never have I ever thought of putting a belt on over top of it.

If you don't mind amusing us, how much did it cost?

[Albion Wilde]

I’m starting to think that she’s wearing her belts that high to keep her alien chest-burster inside her.

Now THAT's funny!

[Toespi]

Ok, something is wrong......no one can put the same belt on with every outfit. I think she is cut-in-two and it holds her together.

[Albion Wilde]

ROFLMAO!

[Shyla]

What is with her and that damn belt?

[siamesecats]

Holy cow that belt again.
That has to be the ugliest belt I have ever seen.
Seems to pop up from time to time :)

[Shyla]

After reading the thread...that belt is now officially called “that damn Belt!”

[1_Rain_Drop]

"Do women seriously wear a belt like this?"

Yes. Only when it's a joke.
