Michelle Obama wore a yellow $337.00 J.Crew ensemble for her appearance on “Tonight Show With Jay Leno” last night. Michelle admitted that she picked up her outfit while shopping online. Via fashion blog, Mrs. O, you can check the below photo collage (that I made) for what Michelle exactly wore.
Much fuss was made about Governor Sarah Palin’s $150,000 outfits. The Associated Press wrapped up the discussion of Michelle’s outfit as follows…
No $150,000 wardrobe malfunctions for Michelle Obama.
“Actually, this is a J. Crew ensemble,” the wife of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama told comedian Jay Leno on Monday on his talk show. She wore a yellow sweater, skirt and blouse ensemble.
“You can get some good stuff online,” she added.
Questioned by Leno, the potential first lady declined to criticize GOP vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin about revelations that the Republican National Committee spent $150,000 at Neiman Marcus and other high-end retailers on clothes and accessories for Palin and her family.
Obama said she and her husband have a policy of spending their own money on their clothes. But she said she wanted to be “empathetic.”
“A V.P. pick, it’s like being shot out of a cannon. All of a sudden you’re at the center of attention, and you want to look good,” said Michelle Obama, adding she has never met Palin. “You’re living in your home, minding your business, and all of a sudden you’re on the national stage and everyone’s watching.” [READ MORE...]
Regardless of your political affiliation, do vote next Tuesday November 4th! What do you think of Michelle’s ‘empathetic’ J. Crew outfit – love it or not?

I like the collage you made! But she only wore one of those skirts. It’s the one in the upper right corner.

Marcus I prefer Conan over Leno! I can’t explain why but that’s what I feel. Leigh thanks for the tip. I was unsure which one was the skirt she wore so I posted up the two just in case.

I love Michelle’s outfit. I don’t care what she wears, she is always classy and sophisticated.

How can you say she is classy. Her clothes always look like she was poured into them. She needs to buy them at least one size higher. How are they going to “survive” on one salary?

Speaking of First Lady Michelle Obama:
Michelle Obama is a racial-minority individual, and in her heart and mind she inevitably does not endorse hate crimes committed by George W. Bush.
George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).
George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.
And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.
Many people know what Bush did.
And many people will know what Bush did—even to the end of the world.
Bush was absolute evil.
Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.
Bush is a psychological prisoner.
Bush has a lot to worry about.
Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.
In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

I am not sure where I had read it before, but anyway, it is a linguistically excellent statement, and it goes kind of like this: “If only it were possible to ban invention that bottled up memories so they never got stale and faded.” Oh wait—off the top of my head—I think the quotation came from my Lower Merion High School yearbook.

Michelle is the most classless, of all first ladies. Her choice of clothes are bad. She is a racist.
