[Lucky9teen]

U.S. first lady Michelle Obama gives her speech to the National Conference on Volunteering and Service in San Francisco, California June 22, 2009. Obama kicked off President Barack Obama's United We Serve campaign urging people to help the nation's economic recovery through volunteering and public service.

[Lucky9teen]

Yeah Me!!!

[SMARTY]

I guess she didn’t learn anything about fashion in Paris.

[kittymyrib]

Bizarre. Who dresses this woman?

[jakerobins]

Yes Hillary gave me the idea...Now I Keep Barry’s in a tiny little box...LOL

[Retired Greyhound]

I understand she is the most beautiful woman in the world.

[Sacajaweau]

She's in Frisco......Her kids are where???

And by the way...We''ve heard zero about grandma...Is she at the Whitehouse??

[RexBeach]

“This just in! Michelle Obama’s arms today announced that they would seeking a congressional seat in south Chicago.”

[JohnLongIsland]

Bet anyone dollars to donuts she’s wearing her $500 sneakers.

[Kimmers]

I must confess I only look at these Michelle threads to see what she is wearing....I admit I am not a fashion icon but this is the first lady and she really needs to step up her fashion sense or have someone step it up for her......

[Just another Joe]

HEY GIRLS! SEE MY ARMS?

I CAN'T DRESS BUT I'M AN ATTENTION WHORE!

[jaucoinns]

why do we have to see her arm pits?

[Carley]

The most fashion forward icon on this or any century.

[LucyT]

Prepare yourself.

[TexasCajun]

Calling Algore! ....What must Michelle Obamah's 'carbon footprint' be to straighten out that nappy hair?

[azishot]

You pinged too late. Just saw it...Yuck!

[DieNarrin]

Fashion police ping.

Well her belt is slipping ... it is actually an inch or so lower than normal.

[T Minus Four]

Can a leopard change its spots?

[Mashood]

In that middle picture she looks just like Jackie Kennedy. The similarities are uncanny.

[bray]

Is Kevin Johnson here??

[bigbob]

Still exercising her right to keep and bare arms I see...

[T Minus Four]

There is always something a NQR about her clothes. This would have been quite lovely if it were all in the same print, preferably the top one. (Disclaimer - haven’t seen hemline or shoes)

[porter_knorr]

It’s a wig -

[evets]

Alien...

[lormand]

"I understand she is the most beautiful woman in the world."

It's either that, or power forward for the Washington Wizards

[1_Rain_Drop]

Is her pit about to make a speech?
What a strange place to place a mike

[GloriaJane]

Actually, it's a surprise to see her smile and look happy. She should put away her scowl and smile more often. It's quite becoming. But her momma still dresses her funny. She really needs to find someone with better taste to pick out her outfits.

[T Minus Four]

It’s a wig

Yup

[bigbob]

Have to agree, she looks about as good here as I’ve seen her.

At least this outfit doesn’t make her butt look two axe-handles wide ;-)

[green pastures]

Disclaimer duly noted... ;-)

[TexasCajun]

That makes sense.

[razorback-bert]

Is that a new boob belt?

[matt1234]

[eCSMaster]

Oh-h-h-h-h

"I feel pretty, oh so pretty..."

"...and I pity..."

"...any girl who isn't me too-ooo-ooo-day."

Thank you very much.

This is MO's stylist from Chicago. Can't recall her name at the moment.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

I don’t get the connection between the top fabric and the bottom, but the belt is much prettier than most she wears. This actually isn’t a bad outfit for her

[a fool in paradise]

Michelle: "Talk to the hand, FReepers."

[xsmommy]

i like it. to me it looks like a dress with a belt sewn on to it, with coordinating fabric top and bottom.i wouldn’t wear it, but it looks nice on her.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

[6323cd]

Found it, her name is Ikram Goldman.

Actual photo "BEFORE" photo!

[Eaker]

Looks like you posted the “after” photos.

;<)

[patriotspride]

How come her waistline is always about 6+ inches above the place you would normally expect it to be.

SARC.............................

[T Minus Four]

What in the Sam Hill is that? A pinafore? And how is it possible to make a nice trim little black cardigan look wrong?
