Michelle Obama wears $4K thigh-high Balenciaga glitter boots on book tour
I did know that my clothes were making a statement, I knew that was the case.

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



This former FLOTUS has some serious footwear game.

Michelle Obama made an appearance at Barclays Center on Wednesday night for the final stop of her book tour, where she was interviewed by Sarah Jessica Parker in a high-end outfit worthy of Carrie Bradshaw herself.

The “Becoming” author, 54, went all out with her designer duds, wearing a vibrant yellow silk wrap dress from Balenciaga’s spring 2019 collection paired with equally eye-catching shoes — the brand’s  $3,900 gold sequined thigh-high boots.  She also accessorized with  $550 Jennifer Fisher gold ‘Baby Jamma’ hoops.

And if Obama’s past wardrobe choices are any indication, these disco-ready boots will be totally sold out in no time flat.

During the event, the former First Lady explained that during her time in the White House, “I did know that my clothes were making a statement, I knew that was the case. So we decided why don’t we use this platform to uplift some young new designers who normally wouldn’t get this kind of attention, because you can change their lives, which is one of the reasons why we chose Jason Wu for my inaugural gown.”

This is the same woman who, when she was First Lady, bragged about doing her clothes shopping for her and her kids at K-Mart!jrSmiley_10_smiley_image.gif

And the same First Lady who was criticized by Michelle Malkin for wearing couture to a state dinner instead of sweats from Target.

No to mention that she was also attacked for wearing a sleeveless dress. I mean...she showed her ARMS!!!! OMG! But the current FLOTUS poses naked and the right doesn't say a word. Gotta love their selective outrage.

Well, Melania's nude and girl-on-girl porn shoots were "art".

Michelle Obama's toned arms probably made a few men ashamed of their own biceps, or lack thereof.

Last time I saw a woman wearing boots like that she was on the corner with a mattress on her back yelling "CURB SERVICE"

the current FLOTUS poses naked

She does?  Are you living in the 1990's since that is the only time I can find.

I have one of her wearing MUCH less than Michelle on trumps personal airplane, so it can't be that long ago. I would post it here but it shows too much and would be a TOS violation.

So it's alright for the CURRENT FLOTUS to have posed nude in the past....but you're making fun of the FORMER FLOTUS wearing glittery boots NOW?!

Boy! You all have really feel of the morality train!

I'm not up on women's fashions. My wife, one of my daughters and I were having dinner and they showed me an article about this and we all felt that Michelle's dress looks like the slinky silk robes that actresses wore in 1930s movies but Michelle's was several sizes too large for her. I think it looks comfortable, but they felt that it made her butt and stomach look big.

You can have the dress (fluorescent banana yellow is NOT in my color wheel), but gimme those boots!  In fact, I bet I could walk into the grocery store completely naked but for the boots, and not a single person would notice I was naked.

Not sure why a conservative would post this here. Is it supposed to mean something to someone?

Here's another story for you if you're that into fashion Jasper:

"Melania  Trump gave out candy to young trick-or-treaters, many of whom are from military families, in a plaid brushed-wool coat by Bottega Veneta. It  retails on Net-A-Porter for $3,950 ."

"Melania Trump spoke to the United Nations about cyberbullying, but people couldn't stop talking about her $2,950 hot pink Delpozo dress with voluminous sleeves."

" Aside from the Michael Kors jacket  costing $2,195,  Trump wore a  Hervé Pierre hat  and  $775 Christian Louboutin heels"

"Melania Trump wore a pale yellow coat with a butterfly detail belt to the summit in Helsinki where President Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The coat, made by Gucci, is on sale for at Farfetch for $3,701."

Went right over your head.  That is the very point of the article- to point out the hypocrisy. The left loses it when Melania Trump wears anything expensive; but gives Michelle Obama a complete pass.

Please link any seeds or articles where the left is "losing it" over Melanias expensive outfits. The business insider article I linked is almost a magazine advert trying to sell the clothes she was wearing.

And let's face it, that's not a Democrat versus Republican thing when this dick hole criticizes Michelle and praises Melania, it's a racist thing. To this sorry excuse for a human being, Pat Robertson, black skin is obviously unattractive and shameful and must be hidden while white skin, especially that of a thin European immigrant from Slovenia, is regarded as the epitome of "God's" beauty.

I'm having a hard time accepting these things on her legs as boots. To me, it looks like she has glittery leggings with matching high heels. This is a boot:
