Two Things fashion, hair color, men's hair | (7)
Two things: I love that Michelle Obama wore Alexander McQueen to the state dinner for Chinese president Hu Jintao this week. I know this kinda falls into the "who really cares" category, since politics should be all political and not fashionable, but growing up with a glamorized notion of JFK and Jackie, I can't help but love the fact that we have a first lady who is so fashiony and would even wear McQueen. Even though her choice is now being debated in the press because it wasn't a Chinese designer, etc. It must be exhausting to have your clothing ...
