So she swapped out the stilettos but then puts on a hat labeled "FLOTUS"

[rainbow4321]

Really?
Maybe any other time some might think it's just a fun hat..but not for this trip. Throw on some jeans/tshirt, jacket, and unlabeled hat/clothing that will not give off a "me, me, me" attitude.

[lunatica]

13. Flotus hat for in case she swims away to rescue somebody so everyone can know who she is.

[pangaia]

26. Maybe she should open her designer shirt a little more..

[Retrograde]

28. It's those little touches

like the hat that can take an outfit from being border-line appropriate (yeah, a crisp white shirt with artfully rolled-up sleeves) to tacky. No fashionista underestimates the power of accessories.

Note also how she reflects Donnie's duds: white hat/black hat, black top/white top, light-colored pants/black pants. She's an accessory, not a person.

31. why doesn't donnie wear a wedding ring?

[RedSpartan]

34. Can't find one small enough for his little fingers.

[TheBlackAdder]

38. Similar to Miss Piggy and Michael Jackson's missing glove--except with a hooker in St. Petersburg.

[Skittles]

[rufus dog]

Traitors R'us

[smirkymonkey]

23. They look like such undignified idiots wearing baseball caps to what should be

a solemn occasion. God, I hate them so much!

[brush]

30. And pls somebody tell her to stop being a fu_king model.

Take off the cap and button up the shirt.

You're not there for a photo op.

It's a solemn occasion, a natural disaster for God's sake.

[elehhhhna]

33. And the popped collar? Reliving her heyday in 1990 I see.

[brush]

35. Yes, the popped collar/shades/celebrity look.

[spiderpig]

3. Was she ever acclaimed for her taste?

(cough - Jackie/Michelle - cough)

Ugh - when will this nightmare end?

[kimbutgar]

4. You know they saw the social media critcizing those shoes and someone on the plane gave her

the white shirt and shoes. Such a phony ass pos.

[Angry Dragon]

12. go to the link ........... they took bags with them

page down and you will see pics

[CatMor]

18. They had to be Louis Vuitton bags of course.

[Angry Dragon]

21. OF COURSE

instead of Flotus hat it should be Flaunt It

[CatMor]

29. After seeing some photos of her on another thread

she does more than just flaunt designer labels. It would be a perfect hat.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

5. Flotus and jetsam

[Ptah]

36. !

[Freedomofspeech]

6. Is this from the Onion?

That is incredibly disgusting.

[smirkymonkey]

24. No, the effing Daily Fail. "She went with 'classic' black stilettos..."

No idiots, there is nothing classic about 5-inch high eff-me stilettos. They are such right-wing, nazi ass-kissers.

[0rganism]

7. more like FLOATUS

badum tish
too soon?

[CatMor]

8. And ditch the damn sunglasses

[Achilleaze]

9. FLOTUS hats soon on sale ($285) @ TrumpFashie.com*

Sorry, no discounts for Climate Change Refugees.

* All profits will be donated to Comrade Casino, republican Draft-Dodger--in-Chief to insure his lavish, deluxe, gourmet lifestyle.

[Vinca]

11. At least she hasn't sent out a picture of her clothing with the designer's name attached.

[lpbk2713]

14. OMFG. This family occupies a separate parallel universe.

Everything about them is bizarre.

Rod Serling would love meeting these people.

[JuJuYoshida]

15. SCROTUS

[msongs]

16. did she hash tag her clothes and accessories? nt

[Orrex]

17. Are you sure that the "O" isn't an "A" instead?

[MFM008]

19. Good lord

Where's a SINKHOLE when you need one.

[treestar]

20. IMO this is like the eclipse

The eclipse got all the attention, so the Orange Buffoon looked at it so everyone would start talking about that - him. He doesn't care how stupid the move or how negative the attention - as long as the dialogue is now about him.

Likewise the hurricane got everyone's attention. This attire thing gets us talking about the Orange Buffoon and his wife - attention back on them, problem solved.

[procon]

22. Why is she wearing a man's shirt? Something borrowed? nt

[meow2u3]

32. Gotta be one of the shirts that BLOTUS couldn't fit into anymore nt

[LuckyCharms]

25. Kinda like my uncle when he was dying of brain cancer.

He took a baseball cap and wrote "hat" on it.

[hamsterjill]

27. Is that her take on the Mayor of Rockport asking people to write their ID info on their wrists?

In case they needed to be identified?

Seriously! She's trying to go for the "Top Gun" look here and it's not working.

[sarah FAILIN]

37. I don't think those are her shoes

They just look odd. Probably some reporter has no shoes at the moment.

[rainbow4321]

42. LOL..wonder what aide had to stay on the plane

Barefooted.

[GoCubsGo]

39. Those shoes are so glaring white.

Fresh out of the box. I wonder how they managed to sneak them onto the plane before she got off.

[rainbow4321]

41. Probably had an advance person buy them while AF1 was enroute.

They took a while before deplaning after landing..even one of the news channel guys was like "um...we'll check back and let you know when they deplane". They kept a live shot on the plane steps in a little box in the corner during the wait.

That would have given whatever flunky bought the shoes time to go in the plane's back door for the shoe swap.

I had the same thought as you while I watched..especially as they were sitting around the table..first her feet stick out because of the stilettos and then they were sticking out for be too brand spanking shiny new.
As I said in a prior post..it was the first and last time she will ever wear them. Probably will throw them out as soon as it's wheels up from TX in AF1.

[GoCubsGo]

43. They had a couple of hours between the time when the tweets first went out,

when they landed. Plenty of time to get her a pair of sensible shoes, especially since they didn't land in the disaster area. I doubt they'll toss those shoes. They'll probably stash them somewhere on AF1, in case they need them again. No chance of getting caught trying to sneak them onboard next time.

Honestly, I don't understand why she was even taken along. Presidents don't normally drag their wives along to survey disaster areas. All I can think of is that this is a distraction from other things, like the fact that he slashed FEMA funding, and rolled back federal standards to flood-proof infrastructure projects a few weeks ago. Or, the Cohen e-mails. Or, the North Korean missile launch. Better to get people talking about his wife's fuck-me shoes than about any of that that. Too bad he still hasn't learned that we can talk about more than one thing at once.
