I know I’m late to the fashion critique party on this one, but it’s partially because I can’t believe this non-story became such a big deal. Michelle Obama wore shorts while visiting the Grand Canyon with her daughters in one hundred degree heat (see photos). Shocking! The First Lady dared to bare her legs and thighs while de-boarding Air Force One. Blasphemous!
Michelle Obama keeps it real.
Really, everyone needs to get a grip. As one pop culture commentator aptly put it, “She wasn’t wearing Daisy Dukes; she was wearing Mom shorts!” I think Michelle is a great role model for all modern women. She’s not pretentious. She knows when to glam it up and when to be casual and relaxed. While I don’t think her shorts were the most flattering, they were in no way offensive.
But what do you think? Were Michelle Obama’s vacation shorts Hot or Not?
