Mum's the word
Friday, January 16, 2009 at 1:35 PM As bits of information had begun to surface this week - Mrs. O's official hair stylist for the Inauguration, the family's official White House decorator - we had hoped that it was a sign of things to come. Specifically, that an early announcement would be made with details on what and who Mrs. O will be wearing throughout next week's Inaugural festivities. (In the past, first ladies have sometimes announced such details in advance.)
But according to Stephanie Green of The Washington Times, the waiting game continues. She reported yesterday that "an aide to Mrs. Obama who asked not to be identified confirmed that 'an announcement may not be made until Tuesday.'" There's nothing like mounting suspense. Wait on, we must. Update: To help bide time, the Today Show ran another First Lady fashion segment this morning, touching on Inaugural fashion of first ladies past, while adding another round of speculation on what Mrs. O might wear next week. Cindi Leive, Editor-in-Chief of Glamour, weighed in with thoughtful and well-researched commentary.

I love her look. It's classy, but fashionable at the same time. It's suitable for a First Lady. She makes her presence without being too overpowering. There will for sure be more focus on her than recent First Ladies on all fronts, clothes, makeup and hair especially. I have a feeling her bob with flipped out ends will be the rage this year, combined with light makeup and leaving the bold colors for the clothes (http://www.totalbeauty.com/content/gallery/p_michelle_obama). It all starts on inauguration day..I can't wait!
Regarding that interview - good heavens, what pressure !
Mrs O has 5000 expectations to ponder over the choice of her clothing on I-day. Yikes.
enough already! she wears what she wears....the country is in recession, people are struggling and this is all you write about. If Obama is smart as you guys claims she is, she will get a dress from Macy's and that will say more about her than all the stuff has written so far!
I see that Leive was wearing Louboutin heels for her interview. Nice choice!
