Michelle Obama Watch

she’s awesome!

Thanks for keeping up with things Aminah! This totally rocks.

OOh Look @ Ms.First Lady Michelle you Go Girl.

I have not seen the top photo in the blue gown. Where was this taken?

I want to share my Michelle O style obsession with my facebook friends. Where is the link?

Thoughtful remarks, Darton. It’s nice to be reminded that we value these people for qualities and achievements more intrinsic and remarkable than their fashion choices, good or bad.

I hope that Mrs. Obama will change the official White House portrait and wear a dress with sleeves !!!!!! I also do not think her arms are as beautiful as some people say— I THINK they look like a wrestlers arms !!!!!!! I am not a black woman—so I have no idea WHY they [ black women ] obsess about the texture, etc of their hair. And APPARENTLY spend so much money to get it straightened—in order to have it look like a caucasion woman’s hair !!!!!!

“Ruth Smalldon”…your name says it all. Your statement sounds like the words of a small town gal living in a small town world and if that’s the case, I’ll give you a “I don’t know any better” pass for today. If not, you should be ashamed of yourself! Why should Mrs. O wear a dress with sleeves? What would that do for you as a woman? In what way is it offensive or harmful to our country? Or the women in our country? She is a beautiful, strong, young and fit first lady and you should be proud to see someone as vibrant, youthful, classy, and educated as Mrs. O in the White House for a change. The closest we ever came to someone with such intelligence and class was the former first lady Mrs. Clinton. A wrestler’s arms? Perhaps you’d prefer someone with saggy baggy arms who had no choice but to cover up. Have you ever heard of cardio? Or toning? It’s what women and men do to keep their body’s from becoming something they feel the need to cover up. And finally, the hair thing. You don’t sound like you know much about hair and getting it done, so let me school you on a couple of things. First off, the hair business, whether for African Americans or Caucasians, is an extremely lucrative business. Don’t be so naive to think that white women don’t spend just as much or even more on their hair as black women do. Black woman have the versatility (that means options) to wear their hair naturally, straight, or even with a weave, piece or wig. It’s called style! You know? As in, I’m going to wear my hair this way to go with this outfit and switch it up that way tomorrow. Please don’t confuse that with African American women trying to have hair like Caucasian women. How ignorant a statement is that? Oops, I forgot who I’m asking. In this new day and age, you shouldn’t hate, just congratulate. Have a nice day.

Well Ms. Ruth Smalldon……as soon as I can figure out why caucasion people stay in the sun baking themselves, or stay in some tanning booth, I will be able to answer your questions about the straighten hair. The First Lady arms look great. If mines looked like that, I would go sleeveless any darn time I wanted too. The White House protrait is just fine. She don’t need to change a thing. I guess a Barbara Bush two piece suit would suit you. Not me. No way. No how. I love the fact that the First Lady is being true to herself. Not trying to be Jackie O, but Michelle Obama.
