If you are a fashion watcher like myself, you have been waiting to see what the first lady would wear on this great day. I can’t imagine what thoughts were going through her mind as she picked out the outfit that would define here style for the next four years.The whole world was watching and she did not fail to impress.
Michelle stepped out in an outfit in yellow wool lace designed by Isobel Teledo. This young, hip designer came through with a coat and dress set reminiscent of a young Jacqueline Kennedy with an edge. The yellow outfit popped with green gloves and Jimmy Choo pumps.
I sat and watched the ceremony and wondered how she could stand the cold weather. Silly me! The designer had built warmth into the outfit!!
I visited other websites and blogs to see what the remarks would be about her clothes. Many of the remarks left little doubt that these same people were not Obama supporters.There were cutting remarks about the price. I wondered how many woman would dress for an important occasion in a bargain basement knock off. Yellow? Why yellow? I say why not yellow? The color was picked for its feeling of hope and promise. Besides, the color was just right for her complexion.
Sasha and Malia looked very fashion conscious in their bright colored clothes. Age appropriate, but oh so hip. Malia wore a periwinkle coat tied at the waist with a blue ribbons. Sasha shined in her pink coat and orange scarf. These moderately priced J Crew outfits showed that style does not have to be expensive.
How after such a long day could someone look so great in a long white one shoulder evening gown I will never know. Well Michelle did. No boring, covered up, old guard dress for her. This dress moved and swayed as she danced with the world’s most powerful man.
Michelle you were chic and I can bet there will be a rise in the sale of that dress and coat outfit.
Eat your hearts out you player haters A Black woman with style is large and in charge.GET OVER IT here and now. WE will be here for four more years. And god willing maybe even eight!!!
