First Lady Fashion

I feel compelled to put in my 2 cents worth on an issue that has been nagging at me since the inauguration in January of the new president.

The current first lady may have nicely toned arms, but her penchant for sporting sleeveless dresses in the dead of a Washington, D.C., winter is more than a bit disconcerting. As out of place as wearing white shoes before Memorial Day or after Labor Day.

The most current former first lady needs to put on a pretty shell or blouse and leave the suit jackets unbuttoned. She looks much too up-tight and closed-in.

At least Barbara dresses age and appearance appropriately, but really not cutting edge. Hillary just manages the dreaded unflattering look. Roslyn was plain forgettable, in more ways than one.

What happened to the grace and elegance and STYLE of Jackie and Nancy?

I fully realized that this fashion critique comes from a woman whose wardrobe consists basically of jeans and tees. Well, hey, most drama critics can’t act either.
