As if her multi-colored cardigan collection, affinity for reasonable J.Crew outfits and endless supply of adorable Jimmy Choo heels weren't enough ...
... Michelle Obama now rocks sneakers?
Yesterday, the First Lady of the United States and member of People's 100 Most Beautiful list visited the Capital Area Food Bank in D.C., where she helped assemble more than 2,000 bags of food for hungry children. How nice.
But what was even more awesome was her fashion - Michelle wore a typical J.Crew sweater, natch, but paired them with gray sneaks with a pink toe. OMG!
Well, technically they're not sneakers, according to fashion experts, just shoes - really unexpected ones by Lanvin that cost $540 at Barneys, in fact.
So they might not sell out as quickly as some previous Michelle Obama fashion ensembles. But hey, still neat. What other First Lady could pull this off!

Fashion sense? Puh-leeze! It looks like she borrowed a pair of her daughters pants. Is that cameltoe I see? And $540 shoes at an event to help the poor and hungry? This woman has no common sense, let alone fashion sense.

Well first of all, its getting a little old with everyone having to comment on everything that the Obamas do or say. We need to unite as one and stay focused on the real issues at hand. The shoes that she bought with HER on money has nothing to do with us and the shoes will surely not make or break the real problems at hand, and to be frank about the situation, former president Bush spent more money on bailing his daughter out of jail for drinking and driving, but we overlooked that. Let's just let the Obamas live their lives in peace.
