Certainly for the Inauguration, the team that put Michelle together, and I do believe it was Ikram Goldman who did both the day and night Inauguration outfits, also dressed the girls. And they were in J. Crew, head to toe. They're not photographed very often, the girls...
...Market sentiment was boosted earlier in the week by a surprisingly good profit report from Goldman Sachs, which logged second quarter earnings of $3.4 billion and an eye-popping return on equity of 23%.
