I agree. Her ‘prom’ dress was not appropriate for the inauguration. I didn’t feel that she didn’t know better; I believe she didn’t care. I think she wanted the night that Americans take to celebrate/welcome a new president to be about her status climbing - and so she wore a debutante dress to say I have ARRIVED!
She has well toned arms, yes. But she will wear sleeveless fashion in cold weather because she couldn’t quite face going to that non-state-of-the-union address without being singled out for particular attention for her arms! I believe she could be stately in the right clothing and with a little coaching, and that is more than I can say for myself. But stately isn’t enough attention for her. She thinks public events are about her or should be about her personally- even if it’s her husbands speech.
You know - that seems like it’s kind of ‘it’; she is trying to compete with Obama for prestige and attention. At present, she is employing her ‘style’ because it worked for Jackie Onassis. I keep reading that ‘people are comparing her to Jackie’ but no one ever admits that the comparison is unfavorable.

Oh, I can see the similarities. Jackie was also a shallow status seeker, and the press worked very hard at giving her much undeserved favorable ink.
