I’ll preface this by revealing that all my taste is in my mouth. Seriously. I’m one of those people who could care less about fashion and it shows… but I still don’t care. If I need something besides shorts and a t-shirt to wear there is wailing and gnashing of teeth, after which I inflict myself upon Macy’s. After several hours of indecision I invariably return home with whatever the mannequin was wearing.
So… I’m clueless.
As mentioned previously, MO visited the Gulf coast. Not having Suzette’s acumen concerning all things MO I did not pay attention to the First Lady’s wardrobe…. until this morning, when finally alerted to the full magnitude of her slacks and blouse…
MO wore white on white sandy beaches. White with globs of black.
Now, since I don’t know, I’m asking. Was this as bad as I think it was? Conscious decision and if so, is she sick? Or maybe it a simple case of unfortunate fashion counseling? I get white; white is very cool. But… even I know this is wrong.

Good thing she did not get close to the water – Playboy would have had the seathrew centerfold shots and make her Playmate of the Year

Ewww…

1) never wear unlined white pants, especially if you are going to be photographed in the sun
2) she ain’t smart enough to realize the black on white mistake she made
14. July 2010 at 3:09 pm
I think you’re right. How sad…
14. July 2010 at 3:35 pm
Look on the bright side…
At least it wasn’t spandex…
How’s that for a vision?…
davek…

Talk about unconscious bad taste…

Looks like Barry missed the target…
Yeah, I know, think about it…
15. July 2010 at 8:14 am
I didn’t have to think about it very long..
15. July 2010 at 12:38 am
Bitch stole my oil spill.
15. July 2010 at 8:16 am
I’d shoot off a nicely worded letter to MO right away if I were you. Just be sure and let us know how many members of the NBPP show up at your door afterward…
15. July 2010 at 5:37 am
I am to the point where I think she does such things on purpose. Haha! I look like the oil spill but while you poor honkies are dealing with it, I’ll be up in Maine, on your dime!
Of course, I am past the point where I could think anything nice about that crowd.
15. July 2010 at 8:19 am
I hear that. We’re conditioned to expect only the wrong and twisted out of them.
15. July 2010 at 6:02 am
Well obviously she is a racist. I mean cannot we all see that she prefers white to black. She didn’t give an equal opportunity to the black portion of her wardrobe. I hope that Jesse Jackson picks up on this little detail.

There ya go, Lukie!
15. July 2010 at 10:07 am
now now… she’s from Chi-town and not used to the humidity and heat in the S. Coast. She’s probably pretty comfortable all things considered. A case of function over form. I won’t hold it (white britches on beach) against her.
But it is interesting, considering the wealth of fashion/media savvy talent on that side of the fence that other options weren’t presented or chosen. Must have figured Marth’s Vinyard = Gulf Coast.

I would never hold white slacks in the summer against someone. Even men. Someone dropped the [tar] ball on that shirt, though.
15. July 2010 at 11:51 am
The queen of obvious bad taste she is.

She IS fashion forward. Next season, ALL the fashionistas will be walking around with visible maxipads.
15. July 2010 at 2:00 pm
I can’t wait!
15. July 2010 at 2:18 pm
I thought that was an adult diaper like the ones we use at work (Hospice)
15. July 2010 at 2:53 pm
Oh, hell no.
15. July 2010 at 5:26 pm
That is the ugliest blouse I’ve ever seen. Looks like an ink blot test. She buy that at Walmart or what?
15. July 2010 at 5:45 pm
Looks like it.
15. July 2010 at 6:42 pm
Wait, black absorbs heat – white reflects it. Right? She’s just tryin’ to deflect the heat, thas all.
15. July 2010 at 6:44 pm
Sure! In more ways than one…
15. July 2010 at 6:46 pm
That’s what I’m sayin’. heh
