Inaugural Style
Political Fashionistas: Inauguration Style Round-Up
Michelle Obama isn’t the only political fashionista that’s been in the media spotlight in recent months, of course—Sarah Palin and Cindy McCain certainly grabbed their own share of the style chatter (and, in many cases, crossfire). In honor of the upcoming inauguration, TBF is rounding up some of our fave posts on the topic (and as soon as we link the hate-comment-inspiring Sarah Palin Moose Tote post, you’ll find us ducked down behind our desks until the we get the all clear . . . )
Sarah Palin Wardrobe Challenge. Kathryn spent about 12 hours holed up with her laptop and a steady supply of lattes to put this piece together, and is still waiting for her consulting call from the RNC stylists ...
Sarah Palin Shoes: Look for Less. No controversy here—everyone agrees that Palin’s taste in shoes is fab, but we can definitely do it without soliciting donations (though we’re not against them either if you’re so inclined. . . ).
Sarah Palin Moose Tote: Get It. If you have something to say about this still, in the spirit of post-election America, let’s try to keep it civil. Seriously, between this and WalMart, we’ve had all the controversy we can take for the moment. (check out what other readers thought, too, on the TBF forum)
Cindy McCain Look for Less. An heiress-worthy look without the trust fund we only wish we had.
Political Fashion Comes To Rain Boots. We know the election’s over, but they’re on clearance, and are still super cute.
Michelle Obama: An Inauguration Style Round-Up
With the inauguration right around the corner, naturally our thoughts here at TBF turn to—well, fashion. Yeah, we’ve had enough of the politics to last a lifetime and with a stylish (and budget conscious) First Lady like Michelle Obama on her way into the White House? It’s like we won the style icon lottery (and we’re open to an ambassadorship to say, France, if you’re listening Mr. O). If you’re a regular reader, you know we’ve given Mrs. O lots of fashion love over the last several months; in honor of the big event, here’s a round-up of our top Michelle Obama posts:
Michelle Obama Fashion: A Budget Style Retrospective. This is only the beginning, we’re sure, of a beautiful fashion blogger/first lady relationship . . .
Michelle Obama in H&M Dress. The dress that kicked off the budget-fashion girl-crush we’ve been harboring for Mrs. O ever since.
Michelle Obama: The View Dress. The kind of publicity White House/Black Market could have only ever dreamed of before this episode . . .
Michelle Obama: The Look for Less. We loved this look (which about 60,439 other media outlets also pounced on) for the bold color that now defines Obama’s look—and we also love that the belt and necklace showed up again on multiple outfits, meaning she knows how to get some mileage out of great accessories - holla!
Michelle Obama’s Election Night Dress: What Did You Think? Readers weigh in on the controversial Narciso Rodriguez dress that got even more buzz than McCain’s “that one” comment.
