28. Not good. How could she look in the mirror and say, "Okay, I'm good. Let's go."
Even if she wasn't wearing black hose, the beige shoes do not go with the blue/black dress.

45. Easy. She's British. She's a Power Player
And doesn't need to prove herself to be a fashion maven to get invitations.

I don't care for the shoes, either, but Brits tend to demand substance from certain women, more than fashion sense.

Edited on Fri Apr-03-09 04:54 PM by JayMusgrove
pictures brings up-front and close, Michelle could have been a top NY model, in my opinion.

I love these shots, and, yes, Michelle's dress is stunning.


By the way, Jackeens, thanks again for posting all the links to your photo threads today.

I would love to have a separate forum for all of these photo threads you have done for us this week, maybe when Obama gets home to DC.

19. It's totally absurd
how fantastic she looks all of the time. Totally put together with an effortless "i just pulled this out of my closet" look... and a big smile and utter confidence oozing every time you see her.

She's better then Jackie O.. she has more confidence (but perhaps after 50 years she is allowed to in public).

I just love her!

21. Wow. Great dress.
I also love the picture of Obama with the nameplate in front of him. It looks so official and at the same time really cool. Guess I'm still getting the hang of having a President Obama, every time I see him I feel like I should pinch myself.

24. Heavens! Are those bare arms on Carla Bruni!
Stop the presses! What a disaster! What a tragedy! Doesn't anyone tell her how to dress?!!11?



Oh, yeah. Poutrage is only reserved for Michelle's bare arms. .... Nevermind.

your photo threads.

In this batch I really like the smiles in #2 (a really handsome couple) and #8.

Thanks for what you do.
