Bling in the White House

British Vogue is already talking about Michele Obama's election night earrings. Guess what! They were *diamond* earrings and she paid for them herself to the tune of $11K. That Harvard Law thing pays off! Note to self in future life. Sigh.

Makes me like her even more that she buys herself jewelry!

Amazing . . . no snark like the endless obsession with Cindy McCain''s diamond studs. Why am I not suprised.

I don''t really consider 11K "snark-worthy"...they''re not THAT expensive so as to be offensive. My e-ring is worth a lot more than that.

Agreed. And I believe that Cindy McCain's studs were worth $300k or something obscene like that (at least at retail price no PS prices!)...quite a difference.

Let me just say in a non-partisan fashion that I love seeing all the candidates/wives jewels! As long as they can afford it, more power to them! Mrs. Obama has great style!

I agree DS, I love her style.
