Posted on 01/20/2009 5:41:52 PM PST by KJC1

Coverage of the balls on Fox News.

Her dress looks like a wedding cake turned sour.

Why do close up photos of the two of them remind me of Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley....?

Philip Bloch, one of those cable channel go-to style “experts” goes all effusive when asked about MO’s dress tonight: "Again, she hit the trends like you would see in Vogue or Harper’s Bazaar...She brought that kind of evening dressing, but to daytime. It was just enough. It was a little bit of sparkle, but not too much...it was elegant. I look at it (the color) as an homage to the troops, you know, bring the troops home from Iraq and Afganistan...I think Jackie Onassis would have been incredibly proud.”

That man is what's wrong with fashion today. IMO

Jackie was timeless, that picture could have been taken today. The pundits are blind and crazy, Michele will never be a Jackie O.

I've seen several articles that I found in a Google search comparing Michele to Jackie...........

Michelle: Does this dress make my butt look big?

The timeless question we always ask......

Too bad it wasn't answered truthfully.....

I'll bet that white dress got fuzz all over BO’s black tux.

That's something no one thought of before you!

Thanks for that photo, so we can all be reminded that:

MICHELLE OBAMA IS NO JACQUELINE KENNEDY!

IMO, Michelle’s inaugural ball gown was horrible. It made her look six months pregnant (maybe she is? So they can have another FIRST: first African-American child of a president born while he is in office?)

“wearing a Jason Wu gown this evening, which per tradition, will be donated to the Smithsonian”

Has the Smithsonian ever rejected a ballgown donation?

If not, they might want to consider it.

my husband is an oral surgeon. she needs a mandibular reduction. she can’t help how she purses her lips, if she relaxed her lips would not close due to the space between her upper and lower jaw. although she is an angry unhappy person, this only further accents her demeanor. a happy person with this problem is “Bubba” from Forrest Gump!!

BTW, did you se e what she is wearing at the prayer service this morning???YYYEEEECCCHHH
looks like ANOTHER old bedspread, this one is Floral!!!!

If a pregnancy would actually happen, the media’s slobbering would exceed our expectations.

I do like all her “African Queen” earrings.

Now there is a designer with good taste!

Random unattributed gown musings from the print media:

•Laura Bush’s 2001 red-beaded Chantilly lace gown by Dallas designer Michael Faircloth met with an underwhelming response in fashion circles.

•Hillary Rodham Clinton’s 1993 purple gown by a young designer was criticized as less than chic.

•Nancy Reagan wore a glittery one-shouldered off-white gown that was considered very Hollywood but also very insensitive during the 1981 recession.

Most Americans can’t debate the fine points of Social Security’s future. But they know an ugly dress when they see it.
That’s why even armchair fashionistas lament First Lady Laura Bush’s frumpy suits and wait to see if her style metamorphoses from clueless to chic.

But after Hillary Clinton’s transformation from headbands to Vogue covers, all eyes are on Bush to shed her matronly suits for something younger (like Hillary’s uniform of chic black pantsuits paired with bright blouses).

“The fashion response and rapture over the Obamas (are) amazing,” an editor says.
