Not sure if this is the kind of publicity that they should be proud of at the moment.

First Lady Michelle Obama steps out in Lanvin sneakers and they're only $540!

Oh good grief! Most of the time she wears stuff like J. Crew, which is a store I could actually afford to shop in. So you're going to condemn her for having a pair of shoes, which she bought with her own money, that are expensive? Where oh where was the outrage when Sarah Palin was donning clothes costing many thousands of dollars and paid for with campaign funds, hmmmm?

When is the last time you could afford $550+ shoes and felt like you could flaunt it as thousands and thousands of Americans were laid off from their jobs? Get the point?

No.

Unless your point is that you want the first lady to dress like a WalMart yahoo.

Is that your goal? Or are you just truly desperate for something to snivel about?

I get you're point, but I have to say I disagree.
They are millionaires and she is the FIRST LADY - She better be wearing the best there is.

Not while people can't feed their families, she better be keeping quite about it and setting the example with some Keds.
