The outfit looks great on her body shape but the protruding pockets are what bother me the most. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-61458 Sun, 19 Apr 2009 02:15:32 +0000 chewyspaghetti 61458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't like that particular jacket on her. I think that she has a wonderful sense of style, but that it doesn't always translate well in the media. Putting together a great outfit, and putting together an outfit that looks great in pictures and on camera are not the same thing. I really want her to hire a stylist to help her with that, because I think that with some help she can become the next fashion icon- and she should! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-61414 Sat, 18 Apr 2009 19:13:24 +0000 Chris 61414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that she repeated this outfit from an earlier public event (read that somewhere) but don't like the jacket much. She seems to only have pre-defined combos and not mix up her beautiful seperates much. I love her overall style though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60834 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 08:22:18 +0000 Ele 60834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the shape of the jacket (pocket bags included) but I'm also not crazy about the colour, the striped shirt and even the trousers. I think she has great style, though, and love that she's a little more fringe and fashion-forward with a lot of her choices. She seems to really get it. </p> <p>My hands-down favourite look of hers is when she pairs a big retro skirt with a fitted cardi. When she was recently here in the UK for the G20 I was glued to the news to see what she was wearing- it was just one fab look after another! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60793 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 02:22:50 +0000 Ariadne 60793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of the trench and the dangling pockets, but I don't like the colour (it's actually one of my least favourite colours in the world, on anyone) or the top with it. I love her adventurous sartorial spirit, though, and that she stays true to it and continues to take risks even though she's one of the most high-profile women on earth and is dissected mercilessly every time she leaves the house! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60773 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 01:46:36 +0000 Maya 60773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually kind of like the pocket thing, but I don't think the color is right on her. I also don't like the striped top underneath. I do love that she isn't uptight and conservative (no pun intended) in how she dresses. It's very refreshing. For that reason, I could never truly dislike anything she wears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60766 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 01:31:54 +0000 Angie 60766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a little off as well. Not her best look by far, but she gets away with it. She's a little fringe and I like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60744 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 23:39:52 +0000 shiny 60744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not her best look - the color is off, and the dangling pockets are weird. BUT, I applaud her for taking risks- and having a sense of humor. It's refreshing. She's not all staid and conservative about her outfits - she likes a sense of whimsy and fun. I like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60709 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 21:12:21 +0000 ImogenL 60709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't like the colour on her, it makes her look sallow, and it's too strong for her, we see the jacket before we see her face.</p> <p>Not sure if the dangling pocket linings are the best idea. Shape wise it seems OK from what we can see behind the podium. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60708 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 21:04:19 +0000 shana 60708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the color on her , I love the brooch and I like the way she's layered the jacket with the ls purple shirt underneath. However, I hate that dangling pocket lining (I am guessing that is intentional as part of the design???) and I also think the layering seems a bit casual for the event. In general, I love our First Lady's sense of style - it is fun, playful &#38; approachable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60705 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:56:02 +0000 NCyogini 60705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a dangling pocket lining. There's one on either side. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60704 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:55:00 +0000 Maya 60704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's kind of hard to see. I don't understand what that little flap is just above the hip. I'd like to see a clearer picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-michelle-obamas-jacket#post-60702 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:49:25 +0000 NCyogini 60702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm curious what you think.<br /> <a href="http://www.mrs-o.org/?p=5248" rel="nofollow">http://www.mrs-o.org/?p=5248</a> </p>
