The MSM won't say it, but I will!

I admit that I am a "dedicated follower of fashion," and have been all of my life. Call it a strength, call it a weakness, but it is what it is. The media, lacking any real stories, was quick to pounce on Sarah Palin's wardrobe during this elections, none of which, I thought, was called for. Sarah Palin always looked polished, smart, put together, and chic, even when she chose to wear jeans, or something like boots. In October. I know, crazy, huh?

So since I have heard nary a peep in the media about Mrs. Obama's clothing choices, and since SHE will be setting the fashion stage for women across America for the next 4 years, I thought that I would bring some attention to the wardrobe of Michelle Obama.

Let me just say that Mrs. O herself has also worn a few very questionable frocks, colors, and styles, IMO. Michelle, watch the trendy. I give you props for rocking flats and wearing Narcisso Rodriguez to the post-election shindig, but hey--isn't that a DESIGNER DRESS COSTING LOTS OF MONEY?!? You know...like they said about Sarah Palin's clothes?! However, I think this dress is just about perfect for her. This outfit? Something about it is just wrong. And what is up with this outfit??? Faded clothes...HORIZONTAL STRIPES?!?! And what about the rest, below: strange, funky skirts...hideous prints and flowers...leggings with a skirt...and a WHITE CAMI without a cover up??? Woman, GET THEE TO A STYLIST to help keep you away from these fashion faux pas! You cannot tell me that the media would not be merciless to Sarah Palin if she were to wear any of these articles of clothing! We'd never hear the end of it!

Michelle, you are a tall, statuesque, lovely woman. Stick with what looks best on you: classic shapes, classic cuts, solid colors, jewel tones. Stay away from flowers, too many prints, and even though we know you have a fondness for purple (we get it - red and blue make purple!), it's a little much at times. And girl, get you some blush and some lipstick! Your skin has very yellow undertones...stay away from yellow and olive...they only make you look sallow! Remember...we have to look at you for 4 years! And please don't ever let us see you in African nationalism attire, a dashiki, or a headscarf, ala Erykah Badu. *shudder* As for Miss Malia Obama, first daughter, we may have a model in the works. Can you believe she's only TEN? She's nearly as tall as her mama!
