She is too big of a woman for these designs, IMO. The patterns and frilly details are too bold and come off as garish. She needs to rely more on classics and ditch this pimped up wardrobe.
Condalezza Rice wore some incredible things (she had some phenomenal shoes and boots!), but she always looked very tasteful.
You can wear cutting edge things, but still have some class. If she had on a grey suit with some lacy trim on the skirt and a more bold blouse or scarf that would have been better.
You can do classic without being stodgy or matronly, is my point. She doesn’t seem to think it’s possible.
Michelle looks like a mental patient most days. She seriously needs to ditch the dresses and go for skirts and blouses.
