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.

... because wearing only one wasn't ostentatious enough!
Egads. How many ways can FLOTUS says "FU, America"?
She likes cuffs, well alrighty then.
Got it, thanks.
I await the black caucus and black leaders to protest at how they are always dining while unemployment is sky high in their community

Old jessie and sharpton are waiting to get their order to march when a republican becomes president and then blame their bad economy on that.
Huma?
Let them eat cake!
Soros probably got them back from his 28 yr old gf when they broke up in August and gave the castoffs to MooseChelle.

35 grand a plate of food, 50 grand for this and the black community is lacking and applying for more food stamps.
When will the black community and the Jewish community for the most part frigging wake the hell up.
What did freeloader say?
Ah yes we all have to take some cuts or words to that affect.
Sarah wear clothes and she gets hammered even though it went to charity.
old fat arse freeloader wears this expensive get up and she’s stunning
Only in the American biased corrupt lying sack of crap media would this happen and then they try and tell us they’re not biased too.
The real enemies as the enemies and that goes for some at FOX too, the likes of Alison C, shep Geraldo, Hannity and Meygn kelly with their liberal views
Celebrating Affirmative Action
Hon, who said she bought them?
IIRC, she gets a number of items from designers as an ‘in.’ I’m surprised Hart, Schaffner and Marx went bankrupt, too, but I guess the ChiCom-Hong Kong/S Korea custom suit market is just too sweet.
That is a very awkward kiss. Did they somehow manage to avoid each others’ lips? It almost looks like it.
They shiver and coo their awed, tacit approval over this -- yet scold Sarah Palin for her (alleged) $20K or whatever worth of campaign wardrobe. My Gawd, their hypocrisy knows no bounds.
It’s all about being tone deaf once again. People are out of work and she’s flashing bracelets worth more than many people make in a year. Like she’s saying “I got mine, too bad for the rest of you”
She be stylin’ !!!!
It’s good to be Mrs. Mugabe
