## Michelle Obama

This dress is glorious. It's like.... extremely beautiful continental drift. Whenever I look at the large version, it looks sort of like a bunch of land masses floating around in a gilded sea. (You guys, I'm real tired.)

See what I mean, though? Maybe? ... MAYBE?

I didn't ever see a credit on this dress, which is too bad. It's REALLY cute.

## InStyle, October 2016

That is a fantastic color in her, and the earrings are great... Originally I thought this cover was a little chilly, but the longer I look at it, the more I see the warmth and strength. For InStyle, anyway, which is a magazine that thrives on chilly remove.

## Essence, Oct 2016

Speaking of warmth, this is also totally lovely.

## FLOTUS Hosts National Student Poets Program With Hip Hop Artist Q-Tip

This event sounds cool -- they had 70,000 applicants this year, for a program she and the President started that's designed to foster interest in poetry and the arts and self-expression. The idea being that art helps kids work through their emotions, which I believe of adults as well. She quoted Q-Tip, who said, "The world is kinda cold and the rhythm is my blanket." I am on board.

I also like the dress, but might have liked it BETTER if it had no sleeves.

I don't particularly like this at ALL. The shoes.... are they brown? If so, they don't really have any relevance here. I like the green and the floral, though, and COULD like them together if they were cut in ANY kind of way that would flatter her.

## Michelle Obama And Former First Lady Laura Bush

I like that these two are apparently friendly. I ALSO think they both look lovely, although Michelle's shoes are a distracting yellowed-white. I'd have gone another direction. But that floral is divine.

## Michelle Obama in Gucci

I don't mind this too much, but when you see it in actual motion, the sequins along the neckline look REALLY costumey.

## Michelle Obama in Milly

FLOTUS was on Stephen Colbert's show last night, and she was very engaging, as per usual. Her head looked great. But, reader, that's pants.

## FLOTUS

REALLY REALLY high-waisted and wide-legged pants. Between this and the Gucci that had a belt practically up in her armpits, someone has clearly decreed that she is not allowed to have a waist that's more than two inches below her chest.

They are really not a flattering garment on her. At all. I can't figure out the strategy here. Watching her walk out, I actually yelped. And the PLEATS. To use a phrase Fug Nation suggested we widely apply to things that are whoa: [THE PATTERN IS BABIES](https://www.gofugyourself.com/fug-nations-worst-dressed-emmys-2016-09-2016/68th-annual-primetime-emmy-awards-arrivals-41?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

## FLOTUS and COLBERTUS

But I would very much like to pull up a sleeping bag and a snack plate.

[Recent Fugs and Fabs of the FLOTUSI just imagine Malia -- or Sasha, frankly -- poking her head around the door and saying, "You're saving all of these, right, Mom? You are. Right?
