She wore what? Standing next to HIM?

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoyed their long weekend. Today was a day for celebration and my hope is that we all found time for reflection. Needless to say, I am so very proud of America. Seriously, we have a Newport smoking brotha, representing the South Side of Chicago, named Barack, running our nation! This feels like a dream and I love waking up to realize this is our reality. But on to other business...



UMMMM, WHAT THE HELL, MICHELLE??? The pictures from today's inauguration will be seen from now until the end of time. And she wore that? Hell no. It is unacceptable and inexcusable. I am sick of little Jill Biden out-dressing her. Michelle should be ashamed of herself. Even Hilary's pantsuit wearing ass had on that fly blue jacket.

She so disappointed me with that outfit. Designers from around the globe would have given their firstborn to dress her and that's all she could come up with? NO... Just NO! I love her, but damn! Did anyone else catch those vomit green gloves she was wearing? She held Lincoln's bible with those monstrosities on her hands. Oh lawd, I wanted Oscar De La Renta to jump out of the bushes and fix it! She is a BEAUTIFUL young woman. Why did she have on that horrible Easter attire? That color was horrid and so monotone! Don't get me started on the pattern.



Look, Michelle and I are the same height with similar body shapes. I understand the plight of a tall,pear-shaped black woman. I struggle with style vs. comfort everyday as I stand nearly naked in front of my closet. I get it, I truly do. But this is where I draw my line in the sand. Today's outfit was a fucking travesty! If she doesn't have a stylist, she needs to get one... IMMEDIATELY. If she does have one, he or she needs to be fired... IMMEDIATELY!

Barack has found his swagger. I am going to need her to follow suit (literally). YES SHE CAN! If you think I am just a hater, so be it, but before you label me, just look to Election Day as another example. She looked a HOT MESS all day. Did you peep the voting outfit with the ponytail and headband?

I almost spit out my orange juice that morning! Her evening attire wasn't any better. The dress looked like blood spatter and what was up with the cardigan? It was Chicago and November. I know the sista has to have a light formal jacket in her closet. Disgraceful, I tell you!

In conclusion, I am incredibly proud of this nation and what we were able to accomplish. After the last two elections, we finally got it right! I will pray for President Obama and his family everyday of his administration. He has inspired millions to follow their dreams and in some cases, to began to dream once more. Congratulations Barack! You kick ass...

But I am going to need you to share some of your swag with your better half (don't act like we don't all know she is running shit). Given the right guidance, she can and will become the flyest first lady in American history. Because as we all know, can't nobody wear a dress like a black woman can wear a dress. Get with it Michelle, your moment awaits...

I am really torn on this one...NO I did not prefer the "table-cloth/old school curtain" like dress that the First Lady chose to wear on the day her husband made history BUT I do like that she is making bold fashion choices. She is not affraid to step out of the box clearly (ie - the feathers on the white dress that she wore to the Neighborhood Ball) and the colors are GORGEOUS!!!

Maybe we should give her some time to get in sync with her Stylist (or find one) and revist this in a few months.

Smooches!!

PS - I HATED the boots that Jill Biden wore during the swearing in.
