Is First Lady Michelle Obama sporting a taste for ultra-expensive fashion pieces, or is she cementing her status as a savvy shopper?
Back in April she wore a pair of $540 Lanvin sneakers at a Washington food bank. Earlier this week (while strolling the wooded landscape outside of Moscow), she carried a sexy black clutch, which Italian luxury house VBH boasts is their shiny black alligator manila bag – with a retail sticker price of $5,950.
The White House flatly denies that Obama bought such a high-priced accessory, and says that she was carrying a patent clutch that retails for $875. http://tinyurl.com/lerfaaThe People's First Lady
Things that make you go, "Hmmmmmmmm" Told that Obama's office denied the bag was the high-end VBH clutch, Kelly Vitko, a rep for the company replied, "It’s definitely ours."

Perhaps we'll have "PURSEGATE" as her many minions scurry around to try to find a patent leather replacement to deflect criticism. Fortunately, she's in Italy, where purses are rampant! I'll bet her "staff" are busy little beavers today. There are so many out of work and so many behind on their mortgages that either way, this is a problem. The leaders are detached from the people of the country and the status of the economy.
