• Though President Barack Obama’s speech was indeed stunning, there was another stunner at the State of the Union Address. I posted First Lady Michelle Obama’s look from Michael Kors (it was her first suit worn at a SOTU) and it seems that the FLOTUS effect has happened. At least at Nordstrom, the suit has sold out!

At 78 years old, the footwear designer founded Nine Westin addition to the Camuto Group which partnered with Tory Burch, Jessica Simpson, BCBG Max Azria, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor and has its own eponymous line.
