Pink Dress Debate: Michelle Obama vs. Ann Romney

Oct 17, 2012 @ 9:55 am

The second presidential debate took place last night with Barack Obama and Mitt Romney facing off at Hofstra University. Their wives were there to offer support to what many are calling an Alpha Male battle, with both Michelle Obama and Ann Romney wearing hot fuchsia pink ensembles—perhaps an homage to National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The First Lady wore a Michael Kors crepe sheath and matching jacket, while Romney paired her short-sleeved dress with a turquoise statement necklace. Just this week, Kors told InStyle.com how he feels about dressing women in the spotlight: “I’m only as good as the people I dress,” he said at the Golden Hearts Gala in New York. “They are the ones who bring it to life.” So, which look did you prefer? Tell us by voting in the poll below!

Barack and Michelle Obama: 20 Years Together

Oct 3, 2012 @ 5:11 pm

Awww! President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary today, and the President sent out this adorable tweet earlier today: “Twenty years ago today, I married the love of my life and my best friend. Happy anniversary, Michelle. -bo.” The pair met at a law firm in Chicago in 1989 when Michelle (neé Robinson), then 25, was assigned to mentor Obama, a 27-year-old law associate still studying at Harvard. This sweet video will give you all the details you can handle about the First Couple’s history together. “I figured out pretty quick that I wanted to ask her out,” the President says in the clip, and we can understand why: Not only has Michelle become one of the most powerful women in the world, she’s stylish to boot. Here’s wishing the President and his wife a happy anniversary!

2012 Democratic National Convention: Eva, Scarlett, and Kerry Rock the Vote!

Sep 7, 2012 @ 10:44 am

Not everyone was at the VMAs last night: Kerry Washington, Scarlett Johansson, and Eva Longoria spoke last night prior to Barack Obama‘s big moment at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, NC! How does a red-carpet regular dress for a political soiree? Washington wore a Bird dress and Roger Vivier’s Belle de Nuit pumps. Johansson dressed it down a little bit, opting for a patriotic American flag T-shirt, and Stella McCartney maroon slacks and blazer, while Longoria went for traditional democratic blue, with a gorgeous Victoria Beckham dress and Christian Louboutin heels. Tell us in the comments, which celebrity endorsement was your fave?

But if you caught any of the DNC’s speeches, you’ll know that the stand-outs were Michelle and Barack. If you’re a fan, try on their hairstyles below and post them to your Facebook wall to show your support:

Watch ‘Em Both! MTV Moves VMAs An Hour Earlier to Accomodate President’s Speech

Sep 5, 2012 @ 3:30 pm

There’s probably only one man who could cause MTV to completely reschedule the Video Music Awards: President Barack Obama. In order to prevent airing the awards at the same time as his Democratic National Convention speech this Thursday, MTV has bumped the start up to 8 p.m. EDT, an hour before its original 9 p.m. slot. Obama’s speech is slated to start around 10 p.m. EDT on all the major networks. Performers expected to appear at this year’s VMAs include Rihanna, Demi Lovato, Taylor Swift, and P!nk. It’s a busy night for the U.S. of A!
