[Minnie_the_Minx]

No!



Public service. No one googles like minnie googles.

Google's my mate

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

So why are you bombarding us with images?

Got bugger all else to do.

Do you want me to find some more?

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

Got bugger all else to do.

Do you want me to find some more?

Yes, please. I'm bored too.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Yes, please. I'm bored too.

Google away. I'm off to lunch

She wore that dress to the church service on the morning following the inauguration- its frumpilicious.

 

[quimcunx]

I like it. I like how she dresses for the church picnic sometimes rather than being very formal.

 

[Melinda]

A powder blue Doris Day dress would have been cuter. Or too twee?

Yeah, probably too twee.

 

[Melinda]

Get the inauguration look!

 

[5t3IIa]

ZOMG those daughters are going to be gorgeous

 

[Melinda]

Well she made it onto the front cover of Vogue!

A very photogenic family,I think Michele's a fox,summit about tall statuesque intelligent women makes me go weak at the knees

 

[quimcunx]

She's arrived: wearing something yellow. I didn't get a proper look, yet.

 

[London_Calling]

I'm fixated by the eyebrows, they wander around like the Thames at the start of boom . . . boom . . . boom . . Eastenders.

It looked good, whatever it was.

 

[Upchuck]

The dress detail. Yeuch.

His fingers look gross

 

[blossie33]

What I like about her from the little I've seen is that she seems to wear what SHE likes and not to worry whether other people think it's good fashion or not.

It's far more important that she does a good job as the First Lady.

 

[Looby]

I think she looked great today/tonight and I love that she wore leopard print shoes when she went to downing st.

Seeing her stood next to queenie this afternoon was hilarious. Liz is so short Michelle looked like a giant.

I think/hope she'll be great. She has come across really well so far and is a bloody good public speaker.

Back to the clothes though -I like that she's picking little known designers a lot of the time when chanel etc are begging her to wear their clothes.

 

[Melinda]

From another thread:

His wife is outshining Sarah Brown in the fashion stakes.

 

[Melinda]

Today's clothes *shakes head*

And you so dont want to see the back view.

 

[quimcunx]

Well. What on earth is going on with that cardi? I half like it. (subject to seeing the back obviously)

Sarah needs the services of Rigby and Peller, amongst other things. But I didn't start this thread to castigate women who are not fabulously stylish. I'm here to celebrate Michelle's sartorial elegance.

 

[Upchuck]

That green skirt rocks! She's like the Whitney Houston of politics Same vintage too

 

[Melinda]

Oh I love me some Obama drama.

The top half of Sarah Brown first dress (the black one) has some real promise. I really like her hair.

Ive got no problem with Sarah having help with her wardrobe, after all most high profile women do. The wives of British politicians perhaps dont want to be seen as 'frivolous', but you candress well and keep your dignity.

Side and back view



On top of everything, again with the black hosiery.

 

[Upchuck]

((((Sarah Brown))))

 

[quimcunx]

oh dear.

 

[beeboo]

That cardi is positively bonkers. It looks like a cut-and-shut.

Sarah Brown....

 

[girasol]

Who. Gives. A. Flying. Fuck?

Am I the only one who thinks an obsession with "the First Lady", aka the unelected spouse of an elected representative is really quite unhealthy?

I agree with you

but having said that I do quite like this!

 

[5t3IIa]

I am far too pimortant to read this whole thread but has Sarah Brow's brassiere been mentioned yet? Poor woman had 'double tit'

 

[Melinda]

That cardi is positively bonkers. It looks like a cut-and-shut.

at cut and shut! It doesnt even look as if its done up correctly.

Its so awful, you dont even have to mention it doesnt tonally match the the skirt which must have 4 metres of gathered material in it.

I'm throwing away all my black tights, immediately.
