I don't think the dress she was wearing previously was all that bad. Ok, the jacket was wrong and the dress looked like it was drapery material, but not really bad. The dress you have in this post, to me, is wrong. She looks over dressed compared to Mrs. Cameron. Maybe its just the very bright colors....

What is this I don't even...

Interesting protocol gaffe when Obama toasted the Queen. National anthem started playing so they all just stood there awkwardly.

You aren't suppose to give his real occupation away. Shame on you!

I swear the Queen and Prince Philip were trying their hardest not to burst into laughter.

Actually I agree with Lisa. I liked the first dress far better. That second one looks like she grabbed it off the Salvation Army rack. Is she color blind by chance?

I think Michelle is far too big to wear the first dress and those tiny shrugs/boleros. One reported said it looked like she was going to the Prom.

Better the prom than a twinset

Yeah, we need someone in the White House with real class, don't we? Someone like Trump or Palin wouldn't make us all look like morons, would they?

I was thinking about that. I can hear Trump saying 'your fired' over and over again if he were to get in. I have a dream he would clean up Washington. Fat chance.

If Romney got in he would be a Nixon clone.

A shantung jacket in the same shade as her shoes would have done better for the second dress methinks.
