LOVE the natural look though I'm sure some people prefer the lye-based, hair-straightening chemicals that they wouldn't even put in their own hair. She looks fabulous!!

This is a natural look? There are tons of make up, filters and photo editing in this photo. There is nothing natural here.

You say this like she hasn't sported a straightened look for years. Truly, if you are taking aim at lye lovers, you should start with MO.

My daughter has that type of hair and I assure you that it takes POUNDS of products and tons of time to make it look like that. If you use "natural" in the sense of "low maintenance, just-rolled-out-of-bed hair", then this ain't it.

But I truly loved the way she dressed as First Lady much better. The sunny dresses and cardigans, the lovely gowns she wore at state dinners.

What a happier, simpler time.

Her gowns were hit and miss. Her dress-and-cardigan styles were typically utterly unsuitable for her face and body type. MO cannot possibly wear anything girly, overly ladylike, and look good. She has the same facial type as Cindy Crawford who looks amazing in strong, architectural lines, but resembles a transvestite in anything with ruffles or frills.

Exactly, thank you!
Not to mention she was just forced into that cutsey style and sure enough she never went back to it.

I think 75% of the time she doesn't really care about clothes (but can't afford with her body type to be that nonchalant) and 25% of the time she just wants to looks sexy, which is the worst trap. And a path to looking trashy.

Obama wearing sneakers is in the news today.


As Barack and Michelle Obama appeared in Kuala Lumpur at an event for the Obama Foundation, he sported a decidedly cool look: French cuffed chinos with exposed ankles, a fitted polo shirt à la Richie Tenenbaum, and classic Adidas Stan Smith sneakers.

^^^Yes, I've seen on social media today. Such a cool, down-to-earth President.

Melania did it last year!

I read in the comments he’s wearing women’s shoes. That’s not true, is it?

Mel looks fab.

No, Stan Smiths are available for men and women

+1. And no he's not copying Melania Trump, people have been wearing these for years.

Correct.
Actually, Melania wore the green ones in 2017.

I feel for her, and sympathize, but you’ve hit the nail on the head.

If you compare her WH style with her after WH style, this is completely true. Nothing she has worn since Barack left office remotely resembles her WH wardrobe.

For 8 years in the WH, Michelle wore highly “scripted” outfits. Now she’s choosing her own wardrobe and the results are not great. She should hire a real stylist.

Looks like he’s wearing women’s pants.

This forum is dedicated to MO. There's one for Trump already for you.

I wish some of you would just go on over or back to the Melania Trump forum where you will be happier with blond hair vs natural, extremely thin body shape vs full body, thin lips vs full.

Michelle Obama is not Melania Trump and enough already with the physical comparisons. Like it or not, there are ethnic attributes and dress preferences that will not cater to the eye of some.

Hmmm, I think another person has done some touches here and there to her, ahem, naturally blond hair.

Also, I wonder how you would've reacted to MO wearing this 'natural' style in the WH while attending banquets, state dinners, official receptions, etc? MO is a smart woman and knows a great percentage of folks would've complained. I know there were many days when she probably wanted to just kick the lye to curb. And you know this.
