3 guesses as to what the heck Michelle Obama was wearing

Michelle Obama may be the First Lady to-be, and an awesome one at that, but that doesn't mean she's without her faults. While Salon's Broadsheet is busy complementing her fashion choices, I'm still wondering what the heck she was wearing at her husband's acceptance speech last Tuesday. Some bloggers have spoken out in defense of her hideous red and black outfit, but I'm not buying it. Okay, it's not hideous, but it was still a really bad choice for her body type. For a good long while, on November 4th, my female friends and I forgot to be happy about Obama being President because we were too distracted by saying, "What the heck is she wearing?" Here are some ideas about just that:

1) An anti-Obama voter spray-painted her red out of anger on her way onto the stage. She decided to keep the paint as a show of courage.

2) She really likes slasher movies, and thought she'd show solidarity with all those victims whose blood gets spattered on their clothes.

3) Michelle accidentally put her once black dress in the wash with some bleach, turning spots of it bright red. Embarrassing!
