Remember way back in the good ol’ days (Translation: prior to November 4, 2008) when Michelle Obama created the fiction that she was just a regular gal who shopped at J. Crew?
Well, those days are now long gone and forgotten.
The Most Glamorous First Lady in History just placed an order for two outrageously expensive pairs of custom-made, high fashion boots — one pair of flat black boots and another pair of calf-length boots in beige buckskin — from French designer Robert Clergerie.
The First Lady must be getting ready for another appearance at a charity food bank and the $540 pair of Lanvin tennis shoes she wore last year are undoubtedly completely worn out by now.
Of course, outrageously expensive clothing was not part of her image during the presidential campaign. Back then, the media helped created the fiction that she regularly sported affordable sweaters carefully selected at J. Crew and reasonably-priced Anne Klein dresses purchased with pennies scrimped and saved from her meager household budget.
The price of Empress Michelle’s new shoes hasn’t been revealed. But we are willing to guarantee that it’s more than you paid for your last pair of shoes. Maybe even more than your last house payment.
