First Lady of Bling

In diplomatic circles, it is de rigeur for visitor(s) from a foreign country to return a dinner/banquet. So it is with U.S. presidents.

Two evenings ago, Queen Elizabeth II threw a state dinner in honor of the visiting Obamas. Last night, Obama co-hosted a dinner in honour of the Queen.

Michelle wore an all-white gown (see pic on left) at the Brit-hosted dinner, and an all-black gown at last night’s dinner. Hm, is that symbolic? LOL

Below is a pic of Michelle in the black gown:

No, she wasn’t wearing a humongous wig or some bizarre feather head-dress.

It was the camera angle. LOL

Daily Mail’s sycophantic writer swooned over Michelle’s “toned arms” and calls her “the First Lady of Bling”:

“The First Lady scored a final fashion bulls-eye in a stunning black off-the-shoulder dress by all-American designer Ralph Lauren at the black-tie dinner. The president’s wife showed off a selection of costume jewellery including a cuff and necklace by Irish designer Tom Binns. A similar necklace sells on his website for $875.”

Would you pay $875 for this jumble of a necklace?

Yikes. Get a load of those eyelashes. [Click pic to enlarge]

Looks to me she’s more a First Lady of Humongous False Eyelashes….

H/t beloved fellow Tina!
