No matter what side of the political fence you’re on, it’s fun to watch the fashion choices of our first lady, especially this week at the DNC. I personally adored this Tracy Reese dress that was designed just for the occasion (apparently it will be available soon!).
I love the subtle nod to red, white and blue without it being too bright or a harsh tone. The J. Crew pumps are pretty great too, although I have to say, I wasn’t in love with gel nail color. I think a nice pail pink would have been more demure. What do you think? Are you loving this look as much as I am? Am I being too picky on that nail color? Let’s dish on this Friday morning!

I think that dress is very pretty. Michelle is definitely one of the most fashionable first ladies we’ve had in a while. I get why people compare her to Jackie Kennedy in that respect.

I dug the grey polish…but then again, I have green polish on right now. Haha! : ) K

@The BonBon Rose Girls, I thought it looked blue on my TV. Not grey enough, unless my eyes betrayed me

I normally am right there with you on fashion, but I hated this outfit, except the shoes. LOVE those.
I understand she is trying to be fashionable, but I just feel like she’s trying too hard to look to way.

the details of this look are fantastic. From hair, dress, shoes, nails – Perfection!

She is such a stunning, beautiful lady, definitely the Jackie O of our generation! I’m so-so on the dress (I’m not a huge fan of the brocade trend) but I do love her shoes and polish.

See, I thought the polish was a periwinkle/purple, but I did notice my eyes going to it a little too much. It wasn’t too garish or anything, but I might have done a pink. But other than that? Flawless. Seriously.

She always looks incredible!! I love that dress.

Although I think she looks amazing I was pretty put off by how people bashed her husband’s opponents wife.

I didn’t get to see this dress, but this one takes the gold, with her violet print dress from the final night receiving the silver, and the silver/black lace dress turning up bronze.
As for the grey nail polish I heard about, I think it goes well with the blue/grey/red transition section of the above dress. That’s all I’ve got, really.
