Dress worn on an earlier occasion. She must like the "shimmery" look.

President and Mrs. Obama hosted a decidedly more subtle state dinner for German Chancellor Angela Merkel at the White House Tuesday evening.
Though Mr. Obama presented Merkel with his highest honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the dinner otherwise lacked the glitz and glamour of the Obama administration-- with one noticeable exception.
First Lady Michelle Obama wore a shimmery ivory sleeveless gown by Naeem Khan, a designer she favors and also donned at the president's first state dinner in 2009.
Naeem Khan gowns retail from $5,000-$15,000.
Khan told the Wall Street Journal the first dress he made for Mrs. Obama was "priceless."
Known for her fashion, Mrs. Obama accessorized Tuesday with gold bangles by Alexis Bittar, which range in cost from $145-$695 per bracelet.

I’d love to know what those Marines were thinking.
Satire Alert !
“First Lady shimmers in expensive gown at low-key state dinner”
Is that the Obamabots way of saying she was overdressed and inappropriate?
If Laura Bush had worn such a dress, it would have been, Doubtful Fashion Sense Plagues First Lady
Aunt Esther...

I couldn’t agree more. One nasty, wicked couple.
System’s broke folks, bigtime. Was the chief executive, family, friends, and an army-like entourage resembling a small city supposed to enjoy at taxpayer expense an unlimited lavash lifestyle of travel, leisure, food, and entertainment, every single day without end, that would make rennaisance European aristocracy blush with envy? Obama probably spends easily a few mil a day if you factor everything in on his personal lifestyle entirely unrelated to actually doing his job. Aids, aids of family, andjunt aids and their assistants, motorpool, cooks, relief cooks, 24 hour aircraft staff, drivers, bodyguards, dieticians, fashion advisors, itirary planners... the list just goes on and on. I’m done folks. Can’t go on like this. Like I said, system’s broke.
I am impressed. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to dress a wookie?
They should just give it to her...who else would wear it now??
Only The Clydesdales would love.

“We had to take out our firing pins”.
Is that her husband? If so, he’s a sadist.
She looks like she’s playing a bicuspid in a 1st grade paly..
She looks like Tina Turner in the movie Tommy.
What is up with her hair (picture #8) looks like she is trying to emulate the Statue of Liberty!
LOL !!
What is with her hair??? It looks like she stuck her finger in an electrical socket. I guess it’s a wig but...
And Obama - will somebody pleeeeeze tell him how to hold a wine glass.
Vulgarians, both of them.
