...cares what the First Lady wears? The stock market, for one. Since the Inauguration, every time Michelle Obama has worn a J. Crew outfit, the company's stock has enjoyed a boost, and the items she has chosen have sold out. Michelle's sleeveless dresses have sparked a national dialogue about appropriateness, and her decision to wear a cardigan sweater to visit Queen Elizabeth provoked an international debate about etiquette. But watching the attire of the nation's First Ladies is hardly a new sport. Pat Nixon's cloth coat and Jackie Kennedy's pillbox hats provoked plenty of conversation...

It's summer now, so we haven't been seeing her in them, but certainly all through the fall she wore a lot of long coats, which made great sense. She really chooses unusual colors. She doesn't often go with the traditional spectrum: red, cobalt. She does not do that. She does chartreuse, she does teal. The red that she uses is a kind of tomato; it has an orange tint to it. I personally think that it takes an evolved sense of aesthetics...
...shirt, I love it--it's comfortable and wicks away sweat--and I'd wear one all the time if not for its $89 price tag, the cheapest in the line. It's given me a whole new appreciation for my wife's underwear, though lately I've started to obsess about my thighs. I'm thinking manny hose...
