Looking back, I agree with all of this. Too bad she felt the need to do this, but most of us would have done the same. |
OTH- It is so refreshing to see someone not trying to look 29. Her white outfit was fine, if it were me I would have worn a wool or cashmere camel wrap coat over it. |
Oh, bless their hearts. |
Thought JD said in a NYTimes interview that he is a weekly church goer. She attends with the children. |
In her book she explained that she made very deliberate fashion choices to get more press coverage of certain events and to complement the administration’s agenda. The WH years were about packaging messages in the most palatable ways, not about expressing her own uniqueness. |
I thought the kids went to Catholic school (so they get religious instruction during the week) and he goes to Mass alone. From the sounds of it during the RNC she is still a practicing Hindu and mostly stays out of the Catholicism. |
+100 I met her many years ago through another DC Circuit clerk. She looks so much older. Not sure what happened. JD must be stressful. |
Don't forget, with "her children." Not his. Not theirs. Hers. |
DP. Are you black? I don’t think those were wigs. My sister had the same heavy bang in college (which coincidentally one of my white friends also thought was a wig). But to answer PP, I feel like certain black women feel that their hair isn’t “done” unless it’s straight. |
With friends like those who needs enemies |
Actually her “job” is to stay bland and out of the limelight. Who has ever cared what the second lady wears? Half the time we don’t even remember her name. |

She knew that, as a person of color, the dark colors would make her disappear amongst the dark suits and dresses so she went with white. Meghan Markle likes white for the same reason. It looks good on her but I do think she must have been cold. |
Agree her white outfit was one of her better looks - possibly her best? - but come on. You can look your age. It's not like you either have to try to look ten years younger or settle for looking 20 years older, in Usha's case. |
No, she has every right to shine. They like to have her there as their POC so she stands out whether her clothes are bland or not. |
I think she looks nearly 40. It’s just that we are so used to everyone dying their hair, getting Botox, getting treatments, that we have forgotten what aging looks like. |
