I am her biggest hater but this is...fine

It's fine. But it adds more fuel to my theory that Usha is just really depressed and barely able to pull it together for public appearances. It screams frazzled, WOHM who stopped at WHBM on the way home to buy something for an event.

There is nothing about that picture that screams frazzled.

The issue is that she looks like she's doing the bare minimum to look presentable at an event. She's SLOTUS and her job right now is to represent the US at events...and dinner with foreign royalty, even at their house, is an official event.

For me, the frazzled part is something I can relate to. I worked all day, kids will be all over me when I get home and sitter doesn't arrive for another hour, but oh no the dress I was going to wear to this dinner for DH's work is at the dry cleaners. So let me stop at the mall and get the first reasonable thing that fits. If I'm lucky, I will have time to shower, blow dry my hair, and do 5 min of makeup. That's what she looks like, but that isn't her life anymore.

I really have no idea why some of you go on creating these inner lives for these women. Also I thought you understand what the phrase “screams frazzled” means.

I think they must be bereft of their own inner life and so have to project fantasies onto other women. It's simultaneously entertaining and pathetic. Usha looks the polar opposite of "frazzled" here.

I think Usha is particularly interesting for the posters on this forum because until a couple of years ago she had a life which was very reminiscent of many of the posters here. She’s relatable in a way that former “model” Melania and midwestern governor’s wife Karen Pence are not. So I think some posters here are thinking “hey, I could do much better than this if someone plucked mefrom my early 40s busy lawyer with small kids life into being SLOTUS with a virtually unlimited fashion budget all of a sudden.”

For a fashion thread, she’s a more relatable paper doll than other prior FLOTUSes and SLOTUSes so people do project what they would be wearing on her.

In the pic at the top of the article, Usha's hair looks amazing (if she dyed it and had this style it would be a knock out the park--30s is too young to succumb to gray hair)

The article picked the worst pics to show her shoes you could barely see them.

Didn't go to the link this time but I think I know which pic that was, with her hair styled. I thought the style was great and lively.
