I actually had mixed feelings about the first dress while watching the live telecast. But, now that I see the ball gown, WOW

That was beautiful! The lady has all a first lady could ask for

I love her

I also would like to add that I liked Dr. Jill Biden's outfits too. I just like the fact that she has DR. in front of her name so she can do no wrong in my book (in the fashion department).

i like the dress, but wasn't a fan of the gloves. the dress was a great choice and her daughters were adorable in their coats.

Now, I wasnt a fan of the Ball Gown, but I hearted the Inaugural dress....Green shoes and gloves and all. I thought it was very chic. I also adored the jeweled colar.

About the designer of the Ball Gown,

though i was not a fan of that particular dress, i very much appreciated the fact that Michelle chose an unknown up and coming. I thought it was the classiest thing she's done thus far. I mean, she could have chosen ANYONE!!!, and she chose a relatively unknown. It's Halle and Ellie Saab all over again. TEAM MICHELLE!!

I liked the olive gloves, JCrew designed them for her specifically

I actually liked Michelle Obama's dresses, both of them. For the first outfit, I like how she wore a dress. It was probably freezing that day and she could have worn pants and a parka or something. But she went out very stylish and classy. I loved the color. And I like the fact that she is into wearing gloves. Not too many celebs or famous people like to sport gloves nowadays. Her dress for the ball was stunning! I liked the color. Not too sure of the one shoulder, but I really liked the outfit. Actually anything that Michelle Obama wears she can pull off. But to each is their own style. Some people will like it, and others not. It's fun to discuss everyone's opinion though.

I agree, i was a bit dissapointed in her choices for herself but her daughters looked adorable!

I personally loved both her outfits. The dress with the coat was the perfect color for her skin tone and the green gloves added just the right amount of pop. And I loved her ball gown, because it wasn't what was expected. It was classy and sexy at the same time. She didn't look stuffy and stiff like most first ladies. I'd wear her clothes any day!

I really loved her GOWN...it kind of looked like a wedding dress. I mean, I would have worn it at my wedding.

For the most part I like Michelle Obama's clothing. She is attractive and has nice arms, but sometimes I feel she shows her shoulders too much in the daytime. I'm not against sleeveless outfits and I do not consider myself conservative. Her choices in clothing are usually really stylish and flattering. Jackie Kennedy also wore sleeveless dresses alot. Hopefully being first lady and dressing this way will weaken the standards on what is work appropriate for normal people. I wouldn't consider going to a job interview sleeveless and most jobs don't allow you to wear sleeveless clothing. I guess i'm just a little jealous that women still cannot wear sleeveless outfits in particular environments without being called innapropriate names. We definitely do not need another uber conservative Laura Bush.
