What's Michelle Obama Wearing?

There is no denying Michelle Obama is already a fashion and style icon.

The way we dress is a form of non verbal communication, and fashion has a huge impact on our economy and culture. For Mrs. Obama, it is her presentation to the world - one that we want to follow daily.

What Was Michelle Obama Thinking?

Well, this ensemble is just a plain old mess. What is Mrs. Obama thinking when she puts stuff like this together?!

The ruffled blouse is too stiff in fabrication, making it overwhelming. Ruffles on a blouse can be lovely and feminine, but work best in a silk crepe - like fabric. So we don't even really have to address putting a cardigan over - it's just more unnecessarybulk and sloppiness. The belt, alas, sure does not help. Again, just too much.

The only way the skirt, with that intense pattern, could look sophisticated and chic would be with a simple black or white tank or tee, and flat or low heeled sandals or ballet flats. The pumps just polish off the misery of it all - simply not the right style shoe.
