With gun sales as brisk as they have been in the last few days, I suspect that wearing that kind of bling-bling in public is also far more dangerous a practice than it is wise.

Furthermore, they're really, really UGLY earrings. They don't accentuate a single thing about "Her" face. You could hang those baubles on the rack at Target and they wouldn't sell for $5.00]]>Nov 12th 2008 5:29AMhttp://www.luxist.com/2008/11/10/michelle-obamas-diamond-earrings/http://www.luxist.com/2008/11/10/michelle-obamas-diamond-earrings/Nov 12th 2008 1:20PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2008/11/10/michelle-obamas-diamond-earrings/http://www.luxist.com/2008/11/10/michelle-obamas-diamond-earrings/
I am writing as a British Citizen living in London and I am shocked at some of the hateful and spiteful comments here.

In my view Michelle is smart and would be aware of any controversy over her jewellery so -

1. The earrings were either on loan or replicas.

2. If real were bought with her/Obama's money.

3. Were a gift from a celebrity.

Michelle has never been a first lady before so no doubt she will learn and make mistakes on the way (re appearance etc) but we should all be routing for her.

Her physical shape is what God gave her and she is working it the best she can. She is tall and elegant. What would everyone say if she was short and fat! (and there would be nothing wrong that either).

As a lawyer myself I worked hard to achieve what I have and I did not come from a rich background but once I 'made it' I liked to treat myself. That said I help and support other less fortunate than I with time and £ including family members and others (as do the Obama's) they have worked to their way up. I am sorry I am obviously mistaken, I thought that was the American way??

It is not a sin to enjoy luxury things as long as one knows that these things are material treats and do not define a person.

Also people have been lauding and applauding Jackie O (whoM I also love) but never did a first lady indulge in her passion for Jewellery more than Jackie O (although admittedly some was purchased during her second marriage to Aristotle Onassis) but President Kennedy bought her oodles while he was in office.

The hating towards Michelle is pure jealousy and sour grapes, after all why would anyone bother to sit down and write bitchy comments if they were not jealous of her success]]>Nov 13th 2008 8:51AM
