First Lady of Fashion! Michelle Obama's Inauguration Day Style

January 21, 2013 L'Oreal

Michelle Obama was perfectly elegant at the Inauguration on Monday, when she stepped out — sporting her stylish new bangs — in a blue checked coat and A-line panel-pleat dress by Thom Browne, J. Crew belt, gloves and kitten-heeled shoes (she later changed into Reed Krakoff boots) and Cathy Waterman necklace.

The designer ensemble was fashioned after a silk jacquard necktie fabric and was custom made for Mrs. O, reports New York Times’ Eric Wilson.

Although Michelle likes to repeat outfits, don’t expect to see her in this one again. The First Lady’s office told Reuters, "At the end of the inaugural festivities, the outfit and accompanying accessories will go to the National Archives.”

Daughters Malia and Sasha looked picture-perfect too. Malia wore a pink, J. Crew coat with purple tights and flats, while Sasha chose a periwinkle Kate Spade coat, with purplish tights and a statement necklace, according to the Huffington Post.

I personally think Michelle has really bad taste and dresses very tacky, absolutely no class. The belt paired with that ugly coat was atrocious. She is one of the worst dressed first ladies ever....Let alone she does not even seem to be a happy person except when she is spending our taxpayer's dollars. For the amount of money she spends, she usually looks cheap.

Michelle is not pretty and she is far from being the first lady of fashion. The girls did look cute though.

Michelle Obama is the classic beauty, she has such an amazing sense of style, I adore her as a woman, our First Lady, a style icon and her beautiful daughters definitely take after her. I love our President, President Obama will go down in history, not just as our first African-American President but as one of our finest presidents. I love this first family, I only wish Presidents could run for a 3rd term because President Obama would get my vote again.

billy jerk bob: Fortunately your opinion is not shared by intelligent people & no matter what you THINK you look like, it isn't necessary to see a photo of you to know that you are 'butt ugly' - your words make it a given.
