Shelley O and the Fine Art of Belt Placement

Werq.

First Lady Michelle Obama at the Maria Shriver Women's Conference at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, California. She's wearing Jason Wu.

She's been on kind of a winning streak in terms of her clothes lately. Perhaps the fictional Antoine Lamay, Queen of the White House is having an influence on her. We like to think so. Anyway, here's an instance where her inexplicably beloved high belt actually works. The high contrast between the black skirt and the relatively pale print top is what takes it away from looking clumsy, like it usually does. Plus, we think the neckline is very flattering on her. Good job, Antoine, you triple-snapping diva.

As for Maria Shri-Schwarz, to borrow a line from The Devil Wears Prada, "THAT I can't even talk about right now."
