I've got to say, I liked Michelle's dress, but Dr. Biden looked stunning.
Maybe the most stunning I've seen the First or Second Lady look at an inaugural ball.







So hot!

1. She looks absolutely stunning.
Dr. Biden looks very youthful too. She and Joe are a good looking couple.

2. Dare I say I thought it was a little too revealing?
Very pretty, but maybe a little low cut...and I say that with huge admiration for her fitness. I'm younger than her and I could never pull it off.

4. What does her dress reveal?
Her toned arms and back! She probably worked hard to get into that condition. She should show off a little. I think she looks fabulous.

8. Thank you
it's not just me. I thought it was a bit young for her. It kind of looked like a prom dress to me.

11. I'm 51 and I'm not her
She pulled it off. I think my new goal is to wear a dress like that when I'm 57. I only have about 30 pounds to go.

14. 30 pounds in six years is definitely doable!
But I'm sure you look pretty hot yourself. ;)

18. I lost 50 in 2 years
I was hypothyroid and didn't know it. But I would have to really exercise to get tone, even with losing the weight which is coming off without a lot of effort now that my thyroid is right.

So, no, I don't look hot at all, lol, but maybe when I'm 57.

3. Michelle must have gotten tired of herding her skirt all night. What a pain.
It's going to be very easy to look at these people for the next four years. :)

5. Agreed
I've never seen a 1st or 2nd lady look so stunning. Joe introduced her as "drop-dead gorgeous" in Springfiedl and he was right.

6. I thought she looked great too. I love that color and the length
was perfect. She's such a tiny little thing. She's a hottie for sure.

9. It's kind of plain, but I like the bright color.
Looks like a nice summertime gown.

10. She is 57 and gorgeous
As a woman who has been so tired of having to choose between smart and sexy - I am so thrilled that these two brilliant women are, as the VP says, "drop dead gorgeous" too.

19. At the point somebody alerted the media
I'm guessing her or the Vice President. Rightfully so. I just love it. She's going to keep teaching too, which I love even more. It is a victory for feminism right there.

20. I thought Michelle looked very beautiful in her dress, but the long hem was
a problem for her while dancing--though not as bad as bound feet. I bet she wears a dress with a shorter hem to her next formal event.

27. Loved Jill's dress. Beautiful. I'm 33 and I'm not sure I can wear that!
She is in really good shape, not just for her age. I loved Michelle's dress too but like you said the long hem was tripping her and Barack up all night!

24. she looked good
it was positive and festive. But as much as I love red, I'm not sure we've "taken it back" yet...I couldn't help thinking of all those Repuke women from red districts in their bright red power suits...

Kinda wish it was more magenta. :)

34. maybe it was a hand across the aisle
I assumed that the red in Michelle and the kids' outfits and in Barack's tie on election night was a deliberate and inclusive choice.

And in Jill's case, I would also guess that it's impossible to wear blue or red in Washington without realizing that those colors carry a message, and that she chose red as a little gesture towards the other party.

Or maybe she just knows she looks gorgeous in red. :)

26. She looked gorgeous!
But---I had enough "Doctors of Education" in my lifetime to not want to call her "Dr. Biden".

28. No boots...
Fantastic dress, and she still looks beyond drop-dead gorgeous... but without the boots, it's like pancakes without syrup.

36. I like my pancakes plain, thank you
With a little butter, little syrup, maybe some powered sugar... eggs on the side, sausage links...

I'm gonna go make some breakfast...

Extra stunning in strapless red!

33. She looks amazing.
Both couples are very good looking. Anyone catch when Tweety said the other day "Talk about good looking, these couples look like they come straight out of Central Casting."

37. Jill is the best looking 57 year old woman I have ever seen
Seriously, she looks great. And she didn't even have to botox herself up.
