Jill Biden: A Study In Scarves (PHOTOS)

Let's take a moment to meet the woman whose husband, Joe Biden, couldn't help but call "drop dead gorgeous" in his speech on Saturday. She certainly is pretty, and her look has lightened up a lot in the last few years (a few blond highlights here, a few cheerful pastels there). But upon closer inspection, there seems to be one accessory that's become her signature style: the pashmina scarf.

Jill and scarf are nuzzled by Joe as he waits to be introduced at a rally in January. This conservative style falls a little flat. Perhaps Jill could take a cue from Ms. Pink Pashmina in the background.

Ok, now we're talking. Here's Jill looking a little sharper in a sky blue scarf worn with a fitted black jacket. (And while we're on the subject, may the Style section be so bold as to suggest a haircut for Joe? You're looking great, JB, but could maybe lose a little length off the back.)

And here is the pièce de resistance: an orange scarf. Jill is one of those people who can really wear orange and doesn't let orange wear her--and as we head into the fall, we hope to see more of this autumnal color on the missus.

Happy campaigning!

Try not to focus on externals for a second, and look a little deeper.

The second to the last picture, is great. What do you think is on their minds?

My wife tells me that she looks like she's never had Plastic Surgery or any other kind of work done.
How many of you agree ?

[Topfeeder]

I do.

Speaking of which, my very conservative older brother as me if I thought Cindy McCain had had work done because she looks so much younger than her husband. I told him that she should, since she was 17 years younger than he when she started having an affair with him. I don't think he liked that very much... you know, family values.

I loved her St.John suite that she wore on Saturday but it was to hot to be wearing a St.John knit suite when it was 90 degrees out side Saturday...

[ZenCrusader]

Does Chanel still make the suits that were copied by St. John & Adolfo ?

[expedito]

As long as she can really wear orange, she's OK by me!

[elcojonu]

Light blue would also go well with her hair color and skin tone.

Huffpo continues to mine the fatuous and insipid, forgetting the gravity of our world.

It's become like a cross between Tiger Beat and Ladies Home Journal.

The article is in the style section....what were you expecting?

[elcojonu]

It's called VARIETY; some say it's the spice of life.
Don't be so uptight, loosen up and enjoy the little things life has to offer.

[zizyphus]

Aye, but the opposite of gravity is levity!

[JudyMillerDubyaAgent]

Time for a spellcheck....the words are spelled "campaigning" and "taut."

I like her hair the way it is. It looks natural and goes with her personality.

[JaneEyrez]

Am I the only one that thinks Jill Biden looks a lot like the awsome actress Helen Hunt?

[MBLADY]

I knew she reminded me of someone! She's lovely.

Jill Biden is a lovely and accomplished woman. I suppose the do nothing/kn­ow-nothing bunch will try to swiftboat her as "elitist" for working hard for a PhD. But I'll bet she didn't get a private showing at Oscar de la Renta the way Cindy McCain did. I suppose an obsession with expensive clothing does not brand one as an "elitist" the way an interest in IDEAS does.

[ballerinagirl]

She looks lovely......a real live person, unlike Cindy McCain who, to me, looks like plastic!

[designer]

she's really attractive. and when it comes to blondes, i'll take mrs. biden over mrs. mcsame any day. she doesn't look stretched and taught like cindy does.

[zizyphus]

She reminds me of Candice Bergen a little.

Lighten up everyone!!!!! After the awful stench left by John Edwards, I'm thrilled to see a 30-year marriage still generating a snuggle. The more I see of Jill Biden, the better.

[elcojonu]

With all due respect, Jill's snugable.
Elizabeth, ahh, I won't go there.

[MamaBird62]

Why do people always say "with all due respect" when they're about to say something very disrespectful?

[Topfeeder]

That photo of Joe Biden nuzzling his wifes neck is awwwwww! inspiring.

[Mattie]

it is a great shot, and after 26 years of marriage my husband does the same thing!

HOW PETTY CAN YOU GET HUFFPOST???

Relax, go back to the political page; leave the rest of us alone to gossip and enjoy.
