US first lady falls in love with Prague ('Bow' wow?)
China Daily ^ | 4/05/09 | (Agencies)

PRAGUE -- Michelle Obama's whirlwind tour of Prague turned into a love affair with a city and its people. "I'll be back," she said.

Crowds of young Czechs and tourists chanting "Obama! Obama!" waved at the first lady as she walked the cobblestones of the Jewish Quarter. She waved right back, and there were no angry faces as far as the eye could see.

"She was totally with them," said Michaela Sidenberg, her guide.

Rummy Chick, she must be showing off her trendy Sock Hop moves to the ladies in that pic.

Keepin' it classy in cotton pleats.

Mortifying Michelle is giving Chicago's truly fashion-forward such a bad name. I guarantee everyone that this bumpkin is causing Chicago's hipper "ladies who lunch" to sign a very collective, bipartisan GROAN. She's ruining Chicago's fashion image.

And sequined knits? Was that on April Fools'? Knits have much fluidity, while as everyone knows, sequins are static. Even Dolly Parton would cringe at incorporating the two. Some elements you just don't ever combine, no matter what. Kinda like glitter-n-gaberdine, viscose-n-velvet, flax-n-fur, bunting-n-beads, accrylic-n-angora, feathers-n-felt, spandex-n-spraypaint, or shantung-n-chenile. ;-)

“I think Michelle was inspired at a fancy restaurant where they fold napkins in a creative way!!”

I thought the same—it looked like she had left a restaurant with the napkin tucked in the front.

Look at the URL. I don’t think it is a photoshop job.

It is uncanny, isn’t it? Michelle is doing a “mingle with the common folks” cheap imitation of Princess Diana.

I actually like the bow! Although, if the blouse is sleeveless, it would look truly idiotic. The skirt is sensible, though, and actually fits.

She seems to be obsessed with belts. She has no fashion sense.

Here is what Time said under a photo

“Mrs. Obama apparently changed into something a little more upbeat for her arrival in London. Here she wears a canary yellow Jason Wu dress under a black Michael Kors coat. The accessory is also familiar: an Azzedine Alaia belt — which her husband supposedly calls the “Star Wars belt.””

What you don’t see are the studs. She uses that belt to keep odumba in line.

Jason Wu is the flamer who “designed” the Inaugural Ball dress, isn’t he? One gets the impression he hates women.
