Poltically Savy

Three words...Have You Voted?!?!

I got up extra early this morning thinking I would beat the other voters in my Harlem neighborhood, but apparently everyone is soooo excited about this election! (Squeal!) I know there will be tons of celebratory parties tonight and this weekend. So as soon as you get off work (and after you vote of course), head to your favorite retailer and grab a few politically happy dresses. Better yet, go on your lunch break...this is serious business.

With that in mind, you know Momma wouldn't leave you hanging. Here are a few of my favorite colorblocking styles that will make you burst with American pride.

1. Moschino, Flower Print Dress, $750












2. Cynthia Steffe Loan Colorblock Dress, $159












3. Bebe Cross Strap Colorblock Dress, $98

Michelle is Crowned Best Dressed

I’m such in a good mood today. Why? Because The Vanity Fair 2008 best-dressed list came out this week and Michelle Obama topped the list. The magazine even called presidential hopeful Barack Obama's wife their "commander-in-sheath."

Honestly, my personal favorite was the purple dress by Maria Pinto that she wore with a black Azzedine Alaia belt on the campaign trail in Minnesota last month, it screamed brilliance.

Other Vanity Fair Best Dressed list inductees include: David Beckham, Kanye West (surprise!) and Today co-host Matt Lauer, First Lady of France Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, Christy Turlington, Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton, Sarah Jessica Parker and Daniel Craig.
