  Carla looks lovely. Michelle looks like she is ready for happy hour. Also, what is with her hair? The front looks just fine but the back is just awful! I think the First lady has made some very nice fashion statements, but this is not one of them. The long beads do nothing for the dress either.

  She really needs to learn how to stand up straight. She should have been wearing something more elegant, rather than this. This dress is rather common, not remarkable at all.

  I agree with MistressMinx, she needs to learn to stand up straight. She is a public figure, afer all.

  Carla looks so elegant.

  I'm from Pittsburgh and I just want to say that I'm SOOO glad this is almost done and over with.

  I know that she dresses in clothes that are attainable for the average woman, and I love that. However, coming from an average woman, if I were meeting with the leaders of the world I would have been more elegant than this. Especially with the hair, the little pony thing in the back looks sloppy. Again I am a fan of our first lady, I think she is a fantastic role model for our young women and I think she does a fabulous job of keeping herself down to earth with her clothes. I just think that this time, based on the pictures, she looks ready to go to a summer BBQ.

  Black is beautiful but Michelle is not measuring up to our standards of dress and style. One of her conservative suits and a DNC hairdo would do it for me. My grandma would turn over in her grave. The firecracker ponytail is not her best but she doesn't look like she rolled out of bed.

  Wow. Synia is a rude one, isn't she? And a tad bit on the racist side...that's a shame. I thought people had gotten over the "black and white" thing a LONG time ago.

  I think Michelle is beautiful, however I don't think that she chose the right dress for this occasion. Her hair looks fab in the front but the back looks pretty "bedheady". Mr. and Mrs. Obama do look like they are in love, and I think that's the best look for anyone :)

  Being a public figure, I think she should have dressed elegant. As for the common woman I consider myself one, I have to admit I would not wear that dress anywhere in public. I would probably not even wear it in my home. So Michelle I say forget about trying to wear clothes that are attainable for the common woman, and start dressing the way a first lady should. As for the hips most black women do have large hips, and the gut maybe she is pregnant, or it could just be the dress the way it is made. Synia calling her ugly you are entitled to your opinion, but you may also be ugly as no one knows what you look like.

  I really do not think she looked elegant at all, her dress is "strappy" not "sleeveless" As the hostess she should have looked so much better. Seems like she was dressed for a casual luch on the beach. Look at Carla Bruni, or Margarita Calderon from Mexico, she also looks elegant.

  La La, give up on Synia. God himself could tell her, I will promise you entry into Heaven if you would say one thing nice about Michelle Obama.

  She would ask God what is the temperature in Hell and would she have to share a room.

  There are somethings that wil never ever happen. I deal with it and move on.

  Hello Synia, how is life treating you?
