The elegant girl singing groups of the 50s and 60s were far better role models to black women than the first sow. I have worked with a lot of black women who dress to the 9s every single day. And I know for a fact that they shop the thrift stores for their designer fashions. I took all of my plus sizes I had to wear when my heart wasn't working and I was so swollen to a thrift store. All the clothes were very nice and not at all frumpy, like many plus size thrift store items. The second trip I walked in and said, I have another load of plus sizes to drop off. There was a heavy black woman on the other side of the counter who burst into a big smile when I said that.
Michelle doesn't try. She doesn't care. In fact, I think she resents being first lady instead of the president.
you dont need to be rich or beautiful to have ....class or elegance..
the problem is michelle is trying to be something she is not.....she needs to work to her strengths and in my opinion she does not.
She has never been all about her looks as some here are attempting to portray. She does need to put her best foot forward on occasion and I feel she does that very well. She is NOT fat or ugly and the people here saying that are simply hateful and dumb even.
She was photographed coming off the plane in shorts and the people here are complaining that she doesn't look glamerous enough for them. She's not trying to be something she's not. She's the First Lady and sometimes she has to glam it up. I say she looks beautiful, you all think she's somehow not good enough.
Go figure. She can at least be compared to Jackie.
She represents the US in her role as first lady. How she presents herself is VERY important. Jackie knew that. It isn't about glamour. It is about her role. A role that she deliberately sought when she set about to groom Barry for the job of POTUS.
