Hillary Clinton’s Red Suit: Can A Woman In Politics Be Judged by Her Wisdom and Not Her Wardrobe?

First Lady Michelle Obama Wears Naeem Khan Gold Strapless Gown to the Phoenix Awards Dinner 8 Michelle-Obama-Gold-Dress-Phoenix-Awards-Dinner-2016

The past 8 years of Barack Obama’s presidency have been powerful, hopeful…and also sartorially stimulating because of the vision that is our fabulous First Lady Michelle. She walked into our worlds with perfectly pointed kitten heels, and kept a strong hold on our stylish hearts with a wardrobe that spanned from J.Crew to Naeem Khan. She was the master of the cardigan yet could pull out a jaw dropping gold flecked ball gown for the night. We had a good old time swooning over her many chic turns, and have documented every hair and outfit change with unmatched glee.

Enter Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, whose arrival onto the scene has been met with so much lukewarm sentiment, that #GirlIGuessImWithHer trended on Twitter.

Jezebel wrote a hilarious article about our general ennui and ambivalence towards Senator Clinton when we heard she was the Presidential Nominee.


Let’s be honest: Hill is not much of a fashion plate. Her suits are simple and practical (she mostly wears pants, not skirts). And though her words are powerful and she is, obviously, the best and most brilliant candidate, we can’t seem to get fired up.

Hillary+Clinton+Hillary+Clinton+Campaigns+q_9syrj3uoex

Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who famously claimed she could see Russia from her home in Alaska, was feted and fawned over, with copious details of her designer digs, cool glasses, and blush pink lip color populating newspaper articles.

Even though Palin was *not* qualified for the position, she sure was popular, due to her good looks, simple makeup, and leggy ensembles.

The world is sexist. Some people won’t vote for Hillary because she’s a woman. Trump has used extremely offensive language towards females (About Rosie O’Donnell, he said, “Rosie is just disgusting…she’s fat, she’s a loser.” He stood by his statement last night!). And somehow it is still a close race in this upcoming election.

It simply is harder for women. Just as Beyoncé mused, “Strong enough to bear the children…and get back to business,” women in politics are expected to be smart, know policy, have a stunning track record, but most importantly, not just look professional, but enviably fashionable while doing so.

Hillary is our first female Presidential Candidate and GOD willing, she will be our first female President. But I sometimes wonder if we’d stand more firmly with her if she chose to wear something we could sink our sartorial teeth into.

We can only hope that one day females will be judged for their brain power over the brands they wear. That black men will stop getting shot in the street. That people will be rewarded based on talent and not theatrics. But it seems we have a ways to go.

Let’s hope that real change happens soon, however, on November 8th. Register to vote here.

Bomb Blogger: Annabelle Fleur of The Viva Luxury

Happy Tuesday, Bombers and Bombshells!

Now, today, I chose to spotlight a young woman who has played a large role in supplying me with some of the best sartorial inspiration since 2015. I’ve always kept a keen eye on her growth and progression but, it wasn’t until now, that I’ve taken the time out to actually feature her here on Fashion Bomb Daily. Her wardrobe is a treasure trove of endless glitz and glamour but it’s her impeccable styling ability that keeps her followers so delightfully intrigued.

With that, join me as we get into our latest Bomb Blogger: Annabelle Fleur of The Viva Luxury!

In her ‘About Me’ section, Annabelle briefly writes, “I started my love affair with fashion working with a wonderful Hollywood designer Elisa Ferare. Elisa was the most intellectual, creative, chic, lively and brave person I ever met. She used to tell me “Dare to dream and all you wish for will come true”! Starting a fashion blog was a long-time dream of mine. I live, breathe and dream fashion. I hope my blog reaches people who share my obsession with all things fashionable and who dare to dream just like me!”

Annabelle is a style maven who knows no limits. Whether she’s floating down the street, drenched in Gucci‘s latest designs or simply donning distressed denim and an on-trend off-the-shoulder stunner, her versatility is the key factor that distinguishes her from other successful bloggers. In addition to her flawless grasp of selecting statement-making pieces, Annabelle is also queen when it comes to taking looks from day to night!

When I first started following The Viva Luxury, I found myself enthralled by Annabelle’s evident beauty but her Vogue-worthy style combos were also pretty high on the ‘outfit inspo’ radar as well. I found myself combing through every single page of her site, just hoping and wishing for another fashionable fix. And, she never disappointed.

Annabelle is a style chameleon who always builds her looks based on a feminine yet luxurious appeal. No matter what she slips into, this Bomb Blogger always remains the epitome of chic while providing added bits of straight-off-the-runway intrigue. If you were given the opportunity to raid Annabelle’s enviable wardrobe, you’d definitely discover some of the most coveted shoe selections, countless printed maxi dresses, bold voluminous silhouettes, loads of ladylike lace and a handbag collection that will bring you to your knees!
