MICHELLE FASHION POLICE ALERT -- Issue 4

[GOP_Lady]

First Lady Michelle Obama arrived for tea at Buckingham Palace dressed conservatively in a black cardigan, white top and a black full skirt that appeared to have a tulle overlay. She was also wearing her trademark pearls, with her hair half-up, half-down. Because this was not an official state visit, the meeting with the queen was considered informal, reports The Times' Booth Moore.

[GOP_Lady]

Oh, no!

[randog]

Yes, that outfit makes your ass look big. Same for you, Michelle.

[Batman11]

Zero’s cheesy smile looks like Eddie Murphy in Coming to America!

[Red Badger]

She’s dressed to the 8’s......................

[chris_bdba]

First time I’ve ever seen her dressed like a first lady should dress. Now if they would’ve only consulted someone about the gift. *sigh*

[Above My Pay Grade]

Hey, at least she gave in to the desparate pleas from her staff and didn’t go sleeveless.

[COBOL2Java]

Is that the official picture or a re-take? What’s Prince Phillip doing?

[sheik yerbouty]

“Yo Majesty, you old heathen!”

[noexcuses]

It appears that she at least wore stockings. And shed that ugly green skirt, tiger striped shoes and sparkly sweater she wore earlier in the day.

[God luvs America]

zero’s bitter half has the look that says, “man- I hate posing for pictures with all these white people!!”

[Mamzelle]

Dumpy...but I must admit that yellow/black number she wore on the plane stairs was smashing.

Michelle mighta "broke wind"!

[Hatteras]

"What’s Prince Phillip doing? "

Looks like the Cha-Cha

[Jane Austen]

Everybody go ahead a flame me, but I think Michelle looks nice. It's the gift of an iPod that made me wonder if it was an April's fool joke.

[WVKayaker]

oops... What’s Prince Phillip doing?

...

[xsmommy]

are there pix of the yellow/black ensemble on a thread somewhere?

[FlyingEagle]

She walked in to dinner at 10 Downing sleeveless - before Easter. Her bare arms are called “thunder and lightning” by the Brits.

[maggief]

Oy, she brought out her guns.

[caseinpoint]

The conservative black was nice but the cardigan is, I think, a bit too informal, especially in light of the queen’s outfit. A nice suit would have been better. The cardigan has a “Mr. Roger’s formality” about it.

[noexcuses]

Everybody go ahead a flame me, but I think Michelle looks nice

No flames. She does look nice compared to some of the photos I've seen of her.

[maggief]

[tiredoflaundry]

Maybe she should trade the sweater for a nice jacket.

[GOP_Lady]

A tank underneath a sweater for a First Lady is a NO-NO!

[Batman11]

“What’s Prince Phillip doing?”

Trying not to get knocked onto that loveseat by her big booty! It looks like she may have pushed him out of the way to get into the front of the picture.

[annieokie]

Question??? What does the Queen carry in that little bag. She's in her own house, who carries a purse around their house?

Oh the other two choclate nugget things on her arm, phweeeeeeeee

[colorado tanker]

What’s Prince Phillip doing?

Finding a way around that butt.

[wolfcreek]

Queen saying, “Who let these dark people in my house?”

[GOP_Lady]

LOL

[trumandogz]

I recall a few years ago during a Bush family visit with the Queen, one of the Bush twins was wearing blue jeans and flip flops.

The MSN went wild, but she was defended by conservatives.

[Melinda]

At least the outfit has sleeves.

[Ditter]

LOL I wondered that myself, looks like the Prince is trying to back out of the room.

[azishot]

Her skirt looks like it’s unraveling on the bottom right. Is this a J. Crewe outfit, too?

[Sig Sauer P220]

Philip looks like he’s getting ready to dash.

[BubbaBasher]

What’s Prince Phillip doing?

He's going over to throw up in the waste basket.

[Winstons Julia]

No flaming here. I think she looks nice. We can be too brutal sometimes.

[tumblindice]

“What’s Prince Phillip doing? “

`e left a can of stout on a black table, but it looks like it vanished into some kind of black `ole.

[varina davis]

Prince Phillip looks like he’s trying to stifle a snicker.

[wolfcreek]

That’s her *husband beater* shirt.

[RegulatorCountry]

What’s Prince Phillip doing?

Artfully dodging Michelle's backside, it would appear.

[FlyingEagle]

Well done. Incredible.

[TSgt]

One would think FR Threads would be above this nonsense and leave this childishness to DU or tabloid magazines.

[Sig Sauer P220]

Dayummm, is Ray Lewis retiring anytime soon? Cuz the Ravens could replace him at linebacker with her.

[Ann Archy]

Michele MOVED In FRONT of Prince Philip AFTER he had been next to the Queen!! The EMPRESS squeezed him over!!!

You stay classy, Michele!

[synbad600]

Really. Who wears shoes at home, either? I’d be in my slippies.

[kittymyrib]

“...that ugly green skirt, tiger striped shoes and sparkly sweater she wore earlier in the day.”

That ensemble was truly straight out of a garage sale. She may be playing a trick on the slobbering U.S. fashion writers by seeing how bizarrely she can dress before they finally comment on it...a slap-down of the fashion gurus who obviously hold no interest for this woman.

[21twelve]

“It looks like she may have pushed him out of the way to get into the front of the picture.”

Correct - another thread has video! (Wouldn’t work for me, but makes sense.)

[maggief]

Belt by Urkel.

[GOP_Lady]

Oh, it’s just a little bit of fun with fashion.

You won’t see me posting anything cruel.

It’s about FASHION.

[Glenn]

What’s Prince Phillip doing?

Gettin' down, brother!
