Michelle Obama’s footwear is causing a fashion frenzy, after the former first lady sported sparkling $4,000 designer boots.
The “Becoming” author stepped out in the eye-catching pair of Balenciaga boots on Wednesday at a Brooklyn stop on her nationwide book tour. Former “Sex and the City” star and fashion designer Sarah Jessica Parker served as the celebrity guest moderator for the chat about Obama’s best-selling memoir.
The gold, thigh-high boots retail for $3,800, and several sizes were sold out or low in stock on at least one site selling them after Obama's appearance.
Multiple fashion gurus and first lady watchers went wild for the lux look:
The current first lady has also drawn attention for her footwear. Last year, Melania Trump's press office slammed the media for focusing on her high heel shoes as she boarded Air Force One to head to Texas to visit areas damaged by Hurricane Harvey.
In a headline, The Mirror called the stiletto-style shoes the "most inappropriate clothes imaginable."
Stephanie Grisham, Trump's communications director, said in a statement to CNN at the time, "It's sad that we have an active and ongoing natural disaster in Texas, and people are worried about her shoes."
Grisham also knocked the press for another instance of homing in on what Trump was sporting on her feet in a CNN op-ed last week, writing, "When Mrs. Trump invited children from a local Boys and Girls club to help plant vegetables in the White House garden, the media chose to focus on the cost of her shirt and the fact that her shoes were clean."
Size "Amazon". I mean you can get them at Amazon.
OMG GROSSSSSSS
The saying is “You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.”
Mooch-elle really might consult Hillary about where she gets her designer muumuus.
I love those boots! With those boots, Moosechelle doesn’t have to shave her legs, saving several hours a week!
Oh, did you see that! That was awesome. Most enjoyable video I’ve seen in awhile. Mark Rober was the guy who designed it. This is what it would look like if she tried to open the bomb under her skirt!
TAMB.
Gross. I thought those were her blue varicose veins.
I always knew she was lower than a snake. Now she has snakeskin looking legs to prove it.
Ahhhh...what is it..!..?..!
The poor, poor woman.
Still heavily oppressed, I see.
Because she really cares about people.
Yep, watched it, and enjoyed it. Those boots jogged my memory...what little is left of it.
“What would they say if Melania wore those”
It would be some sort of attack. Vanity attacked the first couple’s Christmas photo. Melania look beautiful as always, but it does not stop the anti-bullying left. What hypocrites they are.
There is absolutely nothing this nasty, ignorant woman can do to make her anything but what she is.
Did she buy those at Palessi of Santa Monica?
She thinks sh’es a rock star. In truth, she’s a slut.
Can anyone remember another first lady who has appeared on virtually every crap TV show on the planet? She and her partner seem to be trying to milk their old position for every dollar they can get...no class at all. About the only one who comes close is Hillary, and she can’t give tickets away to her and Bill’s speaking tour. Evidently, you can’t even fool some of the people some of the time.
