Throughout most of the campaign, Michelle was impeccably dressed - excluding the Oscar de la Renta disaster (although Sarah Palin wins my award for the most fashionable politician ever ;). And on the 20th of January, she was very nicely put together.
The classy yellow dress and coat she wore for the inauguration were designed by Isabel Toledo and suited her just lovely, in my opinion. Be prepared to see more of this "transparent" lace - it was extremely prevalent in Prada's fall collection. I think that green shoes are a nice touch to her outfit, but there's something about these pumps that I don't like. Maybe the shade or texture should have been tweaked.
The new "First Daughters" were dressed to the nines and looked "pretty as a picture". Malia sported a double-breasted, purple coat with a ribbon belt - just lovely. Her black accessories finish it off nicely. Sasha was decked out in a pink coat (similarly be-ribboned) and an orange scarf and gloves that matched her dress (check out the ruffles underneath!). A fun surprise is her red ballet flats with ribbon ties and matching tights. Absolutely adorable.
The First Lady's Inaugural ballgown was equally flattering, a chiffon affair by Jason Wu. Very pretty, although I would have liked it better without the little accent pieces, which look a bit too similar to cotton balls for my taste. Michelle's peep-toe heels are great - and just check out the stacked bangles on her wrist! There's at least 13. :)I'm sure the whole country is waiting with bated breath to see what this new year will have in store for our nation. There's a lot looming on the horizon - let's pray that God will use our new President to carry out His-story and give us all the grace to do our part, each and every day...
