Or a casual summer dress. Or comfortable flats. I’m not angry - she can wear what she wants. But she looks extremely unprofessional. She is not a woman going on vacation. She is 24/7, the First Lady of the United States, the new Jackie O, going on vacation. She should dress accordingly. She looks like she’s been traveling in a station wagon with no air conditioning for 10 hours.

Re: “She looks like she’s been traveling in a station wagon with no air conditioning for 10 hours”

*************

ha ha — that brings back memories of my youth. We’d cross the CA/NV desert from L.A. thru Vegas on our way to North Rim of Grand Canyon or those national parks in Utah.

We’d arrive in Vegas for lunch in our ‘54 Ford station wagon with one of those weird cylindrical things affixed to a window — the ‘a/c!’ You’d pull on some string to release a little cool air. Hilarious.

And boy, did we look rumpled and messy when stopping in Vegas for lunch. My mother was embarrassed to go to a hotel coffee shop for lunch until we all stopped at a gas station and primped for 10 minutes, trying to look more presentable.

Different times, to be sure, and we were NOT the ‘first family!’ It seems to me that things were nicer overall, though, back in the days when people showed some sense of decorum. In these photos Michelle O. looks like she is ready to paint the living room.
