Yes WSJ, Michelle Obama is our new fashion darling

The Wall Street Journal finally discovered our fashion crush on Michelle Obama. And clearly we have plenty of company. Following her appearance on The View (another secret love) women across the nation are flocking to White House/Black Market to buy the $148 dress Michelle wore on the show.

Like us, we're sure Michelle prefers to have her assets listed in this order: smart, funny and pretty. And that's how we'd describe her. She's wicked smart, and successful, and we can totally imagine being office buddies with her.

Kind folks sweeten bad reviews with a little good news, too

Two weekends ago we wore a new party dress. In the scramble out the door we forgot to do that last minute Any Mistakes? double-check.

We were excited to see event pictures until confronted by the one of ourselves wearing The Wrong Shoes and no earrings. Gack! We had to go find a good picture from another night just to feel calm again.

It got us to thinking, this must be what it's like for celebs, flipping through a magazine and seeing yourself at the back, in the What Not To Wear files. Do they keep a library of past appearances in best dressed spreads, just to stay sane?

We determined that it would be a kindness to combine the good news with the bad, so we were pleased to see that Stylelist is doing just that, in a feature that shows celebs getting it wrong, and then getting it right.

We think Hollywood will approve. Based on personal experience, a spoonful of sugar really does make the medicine go down easier.

This one is for Clinton Kelly.

If Mr. Kelly, of TLC's What Not to Wear, has pushed one fashion accessory on the American public it is the pocket square. Unfortunately, very few of the very few men that appear on the show are open to said square. Why not? What's the big deal?

Do people think squares are for squares? Probably. Not us. We agree, Clinton, a bold silk handkerchief in a man's coat pocket can add just the right amount of pop to his ensemble.

The smoky eye lie

Posted Apr 5th 2008 12:44PM by Cat Lincoln

At the gym this week, as usual we were watching What Not Wear. It was standard fare until they got to Carmindy, the so lovely, sweet and dreamy make up guru.

The makeover-ee asked Carmindy to show her how to do a smoky eye. Carmindy arched a perfect eyebrow and responded, "Oh, that's what you want to learn?"

Tim Gunn beats Stacy London

If your wardrobe is a reflection of your true self, it stands to reason that a messy, outdated closet equals inner turmoil.

This will come as no surprise to anyone who ever watched Tim Gunn's Guide to Style on Bravo, or TLC's What Not To Wear. The transformation on each episode is always accompanied by tears and high emotions.

Here's the question. Your life is being dissected in front of TV cameras, presumably for the viewing enjoyment of millions. Which "therapist" would you prefer to experience:
