That was no ordinary bling on the wrist of First Lady Michelle Obama at the DNC fundraiser in New York Tuesday night. Those fancy diamond cuffs were the creation of 23-year-old Katie Decker, whose namesake jewelry line has been making a serious splash since her graduation from Texas A&M two years ago.
The native Houstonian is over the moon with the fab pub that photos of the first lady in Katie Decker are already providing. Michelle Obama's stylist picked up the bracelets at Katie's showroom in Fragments in Soho. You can see more photos of the Obamas from the evening here by checking out the Gotham Hall event.
If you've been saving your nickels and dimes, the cuffs are available locally at Judith Ann Jewels. The First Lady wore Katie's Lotus cuff priced at $15,000 with 2.9 carats of diamonds, her Gothic cuff at $15,350 with 2.17 carats in diamonds and the Quatrefoil bracelet at $11,800 with 1.73 carats in diamonds.

That is the point.
Since when do Aggies move to Houston and donate diamonds to Rats?
Oh, since *then*.

I've warned the Admin Moderator. Best behavior, everybody.
I thought that was odd but thanks Matt!
Good on ya, Matt!
Hmmmm. I bet what they really do is like buzz and shock her if she gets too close to a refrigerator.
Tee Hee!!! Tee Hee!!!

Party on, Moochelle!
WooHoo! Yes it does. :)
Oh, how the mighty preen before the fall. I do not think that the American polity will be content to eat cake.

Still looks like Crewbacca with make up. You just gotta have the bling if you want to raise your martini glass with high priced vodka for those exotic vacays.
Wookie Wide Load does nothing for the bracelets.
Wow! I was totally unprepared for Ms O in rollers. Yikes
>Obama doesnt look comfortable kissing the Mooshell.<
Reggie is more his style ... She knows it too.
Lots of talk about how Obama has been scolding her for all the trips and stuff, showing how much money they spend while the country is fiscally doomed. He says it doesn’t look good.
Probably the only perk she gets out of being the FLOTUS. She is not a happy camper.
>At the rate that she spends money on clothes,jewelry and vacations its a wonder they arent broke.<
Was Imalda Marcos broke??

One in the same .. one in the same.
>What an awkward hug!<
The kiss .. look at the kiss.
Like two 7 year olds in a play that are afraid of ‘coodies”
