$8,500 FLOTUS Faux Pas
It\’s the lighter side of reality. I just couldn\’t cover anything serious this Friday morning.
So let\’s take a morning break from the back breaking tragedy of the news this week to revisit a whopper of an embarrassment, though you might have to be a girl to understand the horror.
And on Sunday, four women at the reception wore the exact same $8,500 Oscar
de la Renta dress, Mrs. Bush among them.Letitia Baldridge, Jacqueline Kennedy\’s chief of staff and White House social
secretary, says the gown was beautiful, but oh, what a faux pas!\”They all should have congratulated one another on their good taste
and the fact that they could afford the dress. … Jacqueline Kennedy,
when she was first lady, made sure, and her couturiers made sure, that nobody
else wore that dress that season.\”
As for Ms. Letitia Baldridge, having researched Jacqueline Kennedy a great
deal for my political show, I only have one thing to say. Mrs. Kennedy and Mrs.
Baldridge couldn\’t stand each other.
Meow.
Hey, it\’s Friday and it\’s been a long week. It was either Laura\’s horror or contemplating Bowers\’ piece on impeachment, with Markos jumping in. BooMan has an altogether different point of view. As for me, not while our soldiers are dying in Iraq.
See why FLOTUS won out?
