Now that she will be first lady and Sarah no longer needs her wardrobe maybe she can sell it to her. It's quite obvious she has no taste in clothes from what she wore Nov 4th. (and her other outfits also) She is in desperate need of some style help and a makeover. Where were the Fashion Patrol. That red dress looked like (?#@%^&*) ...
Oh, you silly thing. One daughter was wearing red, the other black, so of course Michelle was wearing the perfect dress - both colors. She looked beautiful and timeless, and I will always remember how wonderful they looked in those first few minutes I realized that they will be our new First Family of the USA.
And she has already been asked what her plans as First Lady would be:
..."My first job ... is going to continue to be 'mom-in-chief,'" she said in a recent magazine interview referring to daughters Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7.
She also says she hopes to focus ways women maintain a work-family balance, and the needs of military families ...
Michelle Obama - U.S. First Lady Role ...(Michelle) Obama suggested that if she were to become first lady, she would take on women's and family issues, prompted by the stories she has been hearing from females on the campaign trail. ...
... "And if I have the honor of becoming the next first lady, I want to continue these conversations like the ones I've had with these incredible women across the country. I want to ensure that their voices don't get drowned out ever again in Washington."...
Chicago Sun Times - Michelle Obama as our next First Lady By the way, I read this last year in Vanity Fair: ..."Michelle Obama, who turns 44 in mid-January, is also young, by First Lady standards. Regally tall, stunning, and city-chic ..."
Another fashion review read:
...the world�s collective gaze soon turned to future First Lady Michelle Obama as she joined her husband on the podium in Chicago�s Grant Park. And, what they saw will likely keep the fashion world buzzing for days. Whether you loved it or hated it, Mrs. Obama�s frock choice -- a red-and-black sleeveless sheath with a criss-crossed black satin cummerbund off Narciso Rodriguez�s SS09 runway -- definitely made a statement.
Michelle Obama�s decision to sport an American designer was no surprise; she�s been doing so with everyone from J.Crew and Thakoon to Mario Pinto throughout the campaign. ...I�d argue Michelle Obama made her most commendable fashion statement as of yet. The dress was by all accounts unexpected, unconventional, and right on trend ... Like any true fashion icon, Michelle Obama knows how to push the sartorial envelope, and how to ruffle some fashion feathers. I just can�t wait to see what�s awaiting us come Inauguration Day.
The London Times online yesterday wrote:
...Everything about this woman speaks to the modern, post-feminist woman: she is manifestly clever, independently minded, attractive in a normal, accessible way ... Her demeanour is a reassuring mixture of sassy and self-deprecating; her easy, confident dress sense neither too sexy nor too self-conscious. Most of all, however, she appears to be the personification of sanity...
I admire her as a person and as a mom, as an individual and as a wife, and quite decidedly as a First Lady of my family's country.
