Hypocrisy.
(White House Dossier) — Mrs. Obama was gaining a lot of traction as the fashion icon for the everywoman when all of a sudden she stepped out of the Michellemobile — reportedly Monday — grasping a $1,000 tote bag.
It’s a Reed Krakoff two-tone ribboned large tote, and you can get it at Mr. Krakoff’s website for $990, plus shipping I guess. But we don’t worry about shipping. Fedex it, in fact.
No wait a second, you can’t get it, because it’s already sold out, at least in the teal color she got.
Love it with the blue slippers, BTW. It just WORKS, okay?
I don’t know, go ahead Mrs. Obama, tote around anything you want. If you’ve got spare the cash, be my guest. C’mon now, what’s she supposed to walk around with, a plastic shopping bag from the Giant?
Just, please — please please please please please — don’t put on any more cheapskate clothes and allow press coverage anointing you the Fashionista of Affordability.
A year ago Mrs. Obama appeared on the Today show in a $35 dress. You would have thought she eliminated poverty in Bombay.
