Beautiful. Just beautiful.

[jamie461]

I LOVE the black outfit with the necklace. I would soooo wear that.

[bikerdude]

I agree that black outfit in the first pic is super as is the outfit she wore to the NAACP event. Both fitting for the venue. Of course with her build she could wear a flour sack and make it look great.

[Stephanie71]

She has such amazing shoulders. If she doesn't show them off tomorrow evening it will be a crime.

For some reason I keep imagining her in a red one shoulder gown with an asymmetric neckline.

Or even a dress like the one Nicole Kidman wore to the Oscars (see link below)

I agree with you on every bit of your comment.I read some(comments) before yours and I was just too surprised at the way people said all sort of ugly things about the Obama's family outfits at all the events.I think they're just being jealous! Who wouldn't want to be in their shoes?Even for an hour.

[Joy Musa]

You're such a humorous person, I like your sense of judgment. I think you're not a jealous person, keep it up.I hope we all make headway too.

[snowshoes]

WOW

[Tugar]

I AGREE...

Michelle is a lovely and her figure is to die for. However, I must say, she hasn't always chose the right dress to wear, but she is showing improvement.

[Mattie]

she has a confidence that allows her to wear anything. Confidence is crucial, if you feel uncomfortable in what you are wearing, you just can't pull it off.

[Joy Musa]

Thank you!.Critically speaking, her dresses may not have done too much for her, but she was confident! I don't understand why people just judge in a way that is annoying.

[texasrodeoqueen]

Michelle is gorgeous and has a to-die-for body!

[InfosolutionWiz]

OMG! I AGREE 100%!!

[Stone1234]

She is smart, caring AND beautiful. Wow!

[Agentlady007]

Michele looks great, and still is a people person. So kind and warm. She will be a magnificent First Lady.
I am still receiving email from her.
Here's a recent Email from our next President:

Agentlady007 --

I have some exciting news to share about the future of this grassroots movement.

I recorded a personal message for you. Please take a minute to watch the video:

What you built can't stop now. Together with our partners at the Democratic National Committee and its new chairman, Governor Tim Kaine, this movement will continue organizing and bringing new people into the political process.

The challenges facing our country are too great, and our journey to change America is just beginning.

I look forward to working side-by-side with you in the months and years ahead.

Thanks,

Barack

Michelle protects her family like a tigress - great to watch her.

It is obvious Barack looks to her for a great deal of strength.

She will be a great First Lady - so stunning and intelligent!

[Joy Musa]

I agree with you totally on this.

[misty1]

I think she will be such a great first lady and she will be the one to keep barack grounded
she will never forget where she came from and she will always try to help others that's
what I feel when I see her. I hope her first task will be the District school system to see
how our schools can be improved. Her second task should be the military familes who
have been forgotten during the 8 years of the other guy. Good luck to the Obama family.

[Joye]

She seems like such a mean, uptight person. I hope she mellows out, after Barack becomes President. I hope her mom is kind to the children. Michelle seems like the type that would yell at them all the time..

[lippy33]

Oh, please. Michelle is very sweet to her girls and husband. She just has a stern look about her, but she cannot help that. I find her very attractive....

[LeftLeanWing]

It that stern look intelligent people get when they are actually thinking ..........and listening to what others actually have to say ...........( and stuff )

[LeftLeanWing]

If you even glimpsed mean and uptight in any of Michelle's appearances then you most definitely have some mommy issues.

No one else sees what you see except other right wing zealots that have been trying their best to demonize her...

Or you probably have issues with her dark skin --

We Guess what this Dark Skinned beauty is going to be your First Lady ----- whether you believe your own propaganda or not.

Ah Putcha Hands Up !

[ChelseaC]

Michelle Obama mean? You're kidding, right?
Her dress is stunning--she looks great! Beautiful!

[Rubyslippers]

"mean, uptight...seems like the type that would yell at them all the time" seems symptomatic of too much exposure to the not so subtle racist tinge of Baby mama-Angry black woman--Can't trust the "dark horse" Fox News.
Michelle seems down-to-earth and warm. Her kids look happy. She is gorgeous in those photos. Lucky us to have such a warm and beautiful couple in the White House.

[coffeebaby]

yup... she bought into the angry black woman stereotype. i'm guessing joye lives in an area where her main exposure to black women is on the tube. sad... get out and see the world joye! it's a beautiful place.

[BannedInBoston]

Oh, sh.oot. I just looked at those slides and here I am getting all teary and ready to just wash away again....

[HappyGirl23]

Such class! What a beautiful person she is!

[BannedInBoston]

Michelle is going to be just a stunning First Lady in every respect....

[wanttruth]

Michelle looks great in all the pictures included in the sideshow!

[lippy33]

She reminds me of Kerri Washington from "Ray" in that first pic in black. Overall, I like her fashion sense. She has some off moments like anyone else, but she generally wears clothes well--they don't wear her. And, I'd rather her take risks and strike out once and awhile, than play it safe and matronly like Laura Bush (no offense to her).

Both Michelle and Jill Biden looked wonderful today in their black leather gloves and purple scarves!! Stylin'!!!

[LeftLeanWing]

All first ladies since Jackie O have been afraid to show off their girlie side ( especially Hillary ) .

They dress like Prison Matron Prom Night Promenade.

[Joy Musa]

You certainly don't want my ribs cracking,do you?.Such a hilarious description! Prison what?!!!!!!
