Michelle Obama Style

Michelle Obama’s Prague Fashion Redemption

So I have to address the Michelle Obama sweater-gate that took place a few days ago. Several of you loved her argyle/sequins combo while others, like myself, hated it and found it an odd choice to wear to meet the royalty and fellow country running comrades. I hold to that opinion. However, I am First Lady Obama fan so….

I post this in a peace offering. The jet-set First Lady flew to Prague after making a stop in France to visit Carla Bruni. During the flight to her next destination, Michelle busted out a body hugging black dress and black cropped cardigan that boasted three quarter sleeves.

Redemption at it’s finest. It was simple and appropriate travel wear. Obama also sported her favorite kitten heels. Upgrade. It was a bit different for her. She isn’t afraid of color, which I do (believe it or not) adore about her, but this flight friendly style was demure and (forgive me if conservatives) sexy.

Michelle Obama Sweater Debacle – Photos

Everyone is going nuts over Michelle Obama’s sweater. The President’s wife met the Queen of England wearing a button down frumpy sweater. Michelle has gotten a lot criticism for wearing sleeveless looks and “looking like she constantly at a cocktail party.” I like her style, but her London visit wardrobe was a fail and a fry cry from her stunning entrance into the White House and lovely Vogue feature. See the Obama Vogue Feature by clicking HERE.

Then the First Lady wore another awful cardigan, by Junya Watanbe, that clashed blues with her dress. Her other choices were by J. Crew. J. Crew is never acceptable for a meeting-the-Queen-wear. She even missed a button on the Junya sweater and looks like a kindergartner who needs help. Someone needs to let her in on the secret that argyle and sequins are horrid combination.

That and when meeting the queen and foreign ambassadors it’s not wise to bust out the snakeskin pumps. Save it for Ladies Night at Camp David.

Note by The Dame: Thank you to those pointing out the Junya Watanbe sweater. However she DID wear J. Crew in some the photos show.
