Maybe people are bored after the election, but we have something new to talk about. And it's not just the puppy question. Fashionistas may love it (I at least like it), but others are complaining about the dress first lady-elect (or FLOTUS) Michelle Obama chose for Tuesday night. Care to weigh in? See the dress here

Here's another take on the dress: NEW YORK – The Obamas' first official appearance as first family-elect will be long remembered for many weighty historic reasons, but it could also signal another new beginning: An entirely different fashion sense in the White House. The Obama family took the stage in Chicago Tuesday night in color-coordinated outfits, all with touches of red or black. For Michelle Obama, no stuffy suits or demure pastels here: Instead she wore a striking red-and-black dress designed by well-regarded, but not-so-mainstream, Narciso Rodriguez. The dress is actually really flattering, I think, and the ensemble works for the new first family. How does the song go? "Happy days are here again..." ;-)

I liked the dress. Yes, the dress isn't your typical mainstream look, but "Mimi" isn't your typical mainstream woman.

It thought it was ugly. Reminded me of a black widow. I know she has better fashion sense than that.
