I love that blue color.  If I could have Ivanka's dress in that color I would be in heaven.

@Puss-N-Boots

I found my favorite...it's Tiffany's (I guess that's her?) silver brocade.  Omg, that dress.

Off and on through my 70 years, I've thought about such things.

RE dressing larger women.

I finally came to the conclusion . . . there's no hiding large girth. One can slightly minimize the looks of it--but not by a great deal.

In past years and areas, there have been tendencies of some large women to wear large tent sorts of styles in very very bright printed flower patterns. That will sure splash one's eyes with plenty of color.

I finally decided that--given that there's no hiding their 'whaleness,' more power to them to wear whatever color, pattern and shaped dress THEY enjoyed. And hang everyone else's opinions--which were likely to be negative, REGARDLESS of what sort of 'tent' they wore, anyway.

@Quix

Of course she should wear what she wants.  Women critique clothes, though, and we discuss ways to look best in them.  I'd be surprised to find Mrs. Pence hasn't done the same.

I understand that.

Though a minority of such critiques seem to have much, if any, caring in them--at all.

DHS doesn't have it yet.  We've been instructed to take Obama down and put up a placeholder until the photos arrive.

@beandog

Oh, I don't think it's catty.  Most women have an interest in clothing, and we naturally critique what we see according to our own tastes.  I could say all of the dresses were equally lovely, but who's buying that, lol?

I agree with you...larger women who wear big/loose clothing end up with a tent effect.  Mrs. Pence's voluminous skirt just made her look wider.  She might have been better off with some good shapewear and a more moderate line to the dress.

Not particularly. Hadn't gone there in my thoughts at all.

Was just speaking generally in my experience of overhearing many such comments in my 70 years.

I believe I spoke with you and your husband that evening.  What a GREAT time that was!

I think you are correct.  I am trying to find my pictures from that event.  I just realized hubby was't hubby yet, but soon thereafter.

That was cool.  The media is so obsessed with crowd size, it's beyond sick. Who really cares?  Now if we really want to measure something meaningful how about showing the trash left behind by this crowd vs. The Obama crowd.

The hard truth is that the security for Trump's crowd was much tighter, and restricting than it was for Obama's 1st term.  Reports are that many tens of thousands were gridlocked outside the detector zone and thus weren't visible to the cameras. 

Not an excuse...just an observation.

I dunno.  One person, probably Justice Ginsburg, looked sound asleep, as she is during oral arguments.

Fitting tribute to the 45th POTUS>>>>>>


King and Lionheart
Of Monsters and Men

Taking over this town, they should worry
But these problem aside, I think I taught you well
That we won't run, we won't run, we won't run

And in the winter night sky ships are sailing
Looking down on these bright blue city lights
And they won't wait, they won't wait, they won't wait
We're here to stay, we're here to stay, we're here to stay

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart

His crown lit up the way as we moved slowly
Past the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We're still the same, we're still the same, we're still the same

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And as the world comes to an end
I'll be here to hold your hand
Because you're my king and I'm your lionheart

A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart

Many of the protesters arrested on inauguration day for rioting with face "felony rioting charges"; so, quite a bit worse than the routine arrest for trouble-making but good.

I remain skeptical about what the oligarchy is or might be or will be doing vis a vis Trump.

HOWEVER, I'm thrilled at the way he appears to be upsetting the status quo in DC etc.

May The Good Lord Yehovah keep him alive and troubling the enemy a long time.
