I love that Necklace that Michelle Obama wore with her Black Dress

[LynneSin]

The Jewelry was made by Irish Jewelry Designer Tom Binns with a cheaper version at $875. I'm going to assume in about a week or so I can find a similiar version on Ebay for less than $100.

BTW, the Queen - for 80+ years old she looked great in that beaded dress

1. Stunning. Classy and cutting edge at the same time. n/t

2. It looks like what happens when I throw a bunch of necklaces together

in the jewelry box and then I can't get them untangled. Didn't care for it much. But the dress was great.

3. +1

4. I've got dibs on her bracelet.

8. just find a nice broach

ad attach it to another sparkly bracelet. she was very smart. did not compete with the queen's usually colorful outfits.

[AtomicKitten]

13. I love the old school broaches, almost always rhinestones.

[ClarkUSA]

5. It's jazzy 21st century style befitting this realtively young country's youthful leaders.

She's da bombe.

6. Love, love, love it!!

Love the dress, necklace and bracelet!

7. I think it is a Tom Binn. nt

9. Wonder if it cost 100,000

It's up there.

[GoCubsGo]

18. And, if that's the case? So what?

What's your point? I doubt that necklace costs anywhere near that much, since they look like rhinestones. And, just because she's wearing it, it doesn't mean she owns it.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

10. love it too. ! Maybe it's hidden..but does she not wear a wedding ring?? nt

[Fire1]

11. I don't think either of them do. n/t

12. It's great how FLOTUS gives a nod to local designers when she can

The Tom Binn (Ireland) necklace
The Alexander McQueen (England) belt she wore at Oxford yesterday
The Tom Ford (design house in London) dress she wore to the State Dinner on Tuesday

She gives a boost to new and affordable designers as well. Fashion with a message.

14. Loved the nicklace. n/t

15. Smokin' !!!

16. Yessss! I noticed the necklace before anything else.

It is gorgeous perfection! And I'm not one to get into jewellery at all. But this is ART. :)

[lunatica]

19. I always notice her jewelry. It's always different and pleasing to me

She has her own style and I find that to be part of how elegant I think she is. I don't always agree with her choices but I love that she makes those choices.

[Lindsey]

20. All I can say is I love, love, love the wonderful style she presents..

IMHO she always looks wonderful!

[JitterbugPerfume]

21. it takes a woman of style and stature

to carry off that look . She is stunning and the necklace is pure art.

[mtnsnake]

22. That necklace is one of the gaudiest pieces of jewelry I've ever seen!!!

And what is that thing she's got on her wrist? A portable helicopter?

She does look pretty, though, in that dress.
