Gosh, you know, the fashion photos of MO's European vacation are so full of blog fodder that it makes one weary to even contemplate blogging about it. Thank heavens World Famous Fashion Icon and Busy Mom Michelle Obama is back at home - but that doesn't necessarily mean that she is slacking in the personal style department. Pas du tout!
Here she is, the envy of early morning dog-walkers everywhere.
.
Ol' Boom Boom is back on American soil, showing off her trademark 48" stride as she walks her daughters' dog across the White House lawn. Oh, the color sense - who but the fabulous first lady would pair bright orange with faded madras? An arm-revealing sleeveless tank top with pearl earrings? And who among us could not admire her fearless refusal to be locked into those stuffy old notions regarding foundation garments?
So youthful and fit! Looks like all that healthy eating combined with a rigorous exercise schedule is really paying off for our gal here. What an example for the rest of us! Talk about "walking the walk" - our gal is giving it her customary 120% and is positively POUNDING the walk!

Oh. Dear. I don't even know what to say about it all.

More like metric-tonning the walk.

I thought I warned her not to borrow pants from that fool golfer Daly.

I shall have to point this out to my sister... a NYC dog walker. I'm sure the fashion tips will make her walks with all her dogs even better! Orange and faded madras... would never have thought of it.

Have you ever noticed the difference in her figure between the sheath and pencil skirt days and the dirndl or let it all hang out days?
It's all about the industrial strength Spanx - probably the ones that go from under the boobs to above the knee (telltale line spotted in photo of the sparkly pencil skirt and sweater outfit worn to Downing Street for breakfast).
Anyone who has even examined Spanx, let alone tried to get into them (requires a team far larger and stronger than those who laced up Scarlett's corset), knows that they must be torture to wear. (Explains her looking angry?)
So Michelle Antoinette swings back and forth. More or less svelte on Spanx days; a whole lot less than svelte the rest of the time.
Built like a shmoo - pear-shaped - she has to wear those belts up high on non-Spanx days because of her 360 degree pear shape. They ride above the belly bulge, supposedly to fool the eye. (Yeah, sure.)
