Michelle Obama cannot seem to make her mind up if she likes expensive designers or cheap chains. Also known for wearing H&M and Target, the First Lady boarded a helicopter on Friday sporting a 'Impressionist Print Draped Dress' from Gap, retailing at $29.99. Her choice of cheaper chain clothing during times of recession makes endears her to a cash-strapped public. Not one to stick to a genre, she is also often spotted in very expensive attire from designers such as Alexander McQueen and Tracy Feith.

Yeah, I'm sure she visits Goodwill weekly!

I have no problem with the Obama's living well but I do resent the patronizing crap!

So what's the special occasion this time and why is she overdressed for it?

I can’t - but somebody has to do an edited version of that commerical where Mary Todd Lincoln asks Abe Lincoln if the dress makes her butt look big, but substitute the current clowns.

Be thankful that belly shirts have gone out of style.

LOL! When she first went sleeveless shirts in the winter I wondered if she’d wear a “tube top” in the summer. (shudder)

I think she would look just stunning in prison jumpsuit orange... with boob-belt and crazy-curl wig.

I thought the dress was from target and why is she wearing a dress over slacks?

Maybe she didn’t want to ask if the pants made her rear end look fat...

I never noticed before but she has cellulite on her leg
I am surprised her being so active and all and telling the masses to get fit.

Just another sign the Regime knows they are toast and out of touch. I am sure that the word is out in the WH. No more Kobe beef and extravagant spending till after the election.

You can put lipstick on a communist but it’s still a communist:)

Maybe she was dressed for one of those 98, 99, or 102 degree days that Washington enjoyed recently.

That’s a tunic designed [theoretically] to keep people from noticing your ax-handle ass.

Hers is about 3 sizes too tight.

"Okay, so is it a dress, a tunic or what? "

It's a dress on a regular woman - but Moochelle's ass takes up the yardage to turn it into a tunic & she needs the slacks to cover the rest of her.

Look at Bozo's pants!! He's starting to wear the 'drapes' in the family now.

Good thing she put on pants under that "dress", yikes. The article also claims she's wearing ankle length pants. Maybe on someone who isn't a wookie but on her they're called capris. Next faux pas, blue and white top doesn't go with that yellow/green tote. And then there's the black sandals (sure, every first lady oozes class in a pair of ugly sandals and bare feet) with the brown accented tote. Someone needs to call Stacy on "What Not to Wear" pronto.
