She rarely does the press circuit with Intern George, but honestly, the cement is its own red carpet for this one. She can't go anywhere without a photographer's lens in her face, and she knows it.

And she often uses it to great effect, but also often with one "but." For me, here, the "but" is the shoes. I LOVE that she went interesting, but not that she chose a green shoe that's really picking a fight with the color of the dress. Especially because the dress itself is such a refreshing, bracing tonic of a color that it almost makes me nostalgic for a hot summer day -- even though today IS a hot summer day where I am, and in fact fifteen minutes ago I just cursed our lack of sensible seasons. So for making me forget where I am, she gets at LEAST a pat on the back, no?
