Hillary Clinton ditches pantsuit, stuns in bright pink

I like the white pantsuit the best. Suspose she had to wear a dress last night-given all the tux's at the gala event.

No, we don't know or think that pink is her favorite color.

But Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton set aside red, white and blue pantsuits in favor of a Ralph Lauren Collection fuchsia silk wrap-front shirtwaist gown at the annual Al Smith Dinner in New York.

Not everyone can pull off those AMAZING gowns that Michelle Obama wears.

I like Hillary's dignified yet colorful style.

A vast difference in what a woman Hillary's age and a woman Michelle's age can wear. I can testify to that!

Perhaps understated (except in terms of color) is a better word for Hillary's style.

she has a different flair for clothes. She can wear things that might look awful on someone else.

Especially for a woman in her position, a high-profile public figure and trailblazer as our first Black First Lady.

Lady in pink stood out everywhere she went. It was a great visual for Hillary. There was no doubt who the star was at that party. Well, there never really is, is there, no matter what she's wearing?
