'Fashion Critic' or Fan Girl? WashPost's Givhan Won't Critique Michelle Obama's Fashion(NO PIC)

NO PICTURE!!!

Robin Givhan, as our Tim Graham described her last year, is "the liberal political columnist who plays fashion writer at The Washington Post." As Graham earlier observed, Givhan is "best known to many as Michelle Obama's worshipful accessory to fashion."

And so—as you might expect—in her column this week, Givhan was unwilling to criticize the, shall-we-say, controversial fashion choices that Michelle Obama made for her book-tour appearance with Sarah Jessica Parker earlier this week.

Have a gander and judge for yourself Michelle's ensemble of "a full-length, draped, shimmery yellow shirt dress with a pair of gold, holographic thigh-high boots." You might say that Givhan tiptoed around Michelle's boots.

Givhan did let us know that the outfit was "very, very expensive." But you suspect that if a former Republican First Lady had worn such an outfit, Givhan would have reported the precise price tag and scolded her for conspicuous consumption.

Fox News noted the "$3,900 gold sequined thigh-high boots," and the "$550 Jennifer Fisher gold ‘Baby Jamma’ hoops." Not that she would have to actually pay for these things.

LOLOLOLOL! No, seriously. Is moochie's "stylist" just pranking moochie and laughing all the way to the bank? And the fidiots that proclaim her "style". Gotta be a joke. Is it the same "style" advisor to hildabeast and scupper lip use? Remember scupper lip in the sausage skin black shiny pants?

Givhan is "best known to many as Michelle Obama's worshipful accessory to fashion."

Givhan, a Princeton grad, a year behind Ms. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson, is pretty much a political hack racist, from my perusal of the search headings on her.

Really? You had to go and ruin a perfectly good thread. A mule and horse on the same stage. Hey sarah, why the long face? Are she and john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry kin folk or something? I thought I read someplace that psychophants(?) paid up to 3 grand to attend? Obviously more money that brains. Now, STOP THAT!
