1. The lamp post

wait a minute...

[applegrove]

2. I painted a wall in an old apartment that colour. Then I quickly repainted it green.

It was 2002 or so.

[csziggy]

67. In 1975 I moved into an apartment with the living room painted that color

Well, maybe a little yellower but it was walls and ceiling. The overall effect was a school bus turned inside out. The bedroom was painted purple including the ceiling.

I painted the entire place white and it felt twice as big.

[applegrove]

71. Yes. Painting walls dark colours was a thing. I was in an apartment

that was painted forest green. Very closed in. I did faux finishes on the living dining of one apartment. That was gorgeous. I wonder if it is still there? It was years after I left as I drove by and could see it. It was Mediterranean aged plaster yellow. No polka dots. But yeah. Stick with light colours unless you really need to set a mood and Don't mind the walls closing in.

[csziggy]

72. Yeah - I made a mistake in this house and painted the living/dining room peacock green

It's a beautiful color but that room is the darkest one in the house already, then with the dark walls it is oppressive.

Next year we're adding a new living room onto the front of the house with loads of windows for lots of light. I may paint what walls we have a medium/light Williamsburg blue. The existing living/dining room will become my studio/archive (for needlework and genealogical stuff) and those walls will be antique white.

Years ago we lived in a double wide that came with "walnut" wood toned paneling in the living and dining room. When I remodeled it I faux treated the walls with what we called the "smooshed" effect. We painted the walls off white, then put a light blue glaze over it, spread plastic sheeting onto the wet glaze, and pulled it off. It looked sort of marblized and was very nice background for our art and antique furniture.

But I realized that very little of the walls show under all our stuff so I will never spend that much time and effort on a wall treatment again. In fact I had to fight with the builders to do just a flat treatment on the walls - they wanted to do a faux stucco effect on the dry wall. I finally ended up with what they called "orange peel" which has nearly no texture.

3. Mr. Blackwell is spinning in his grave

And rightly so.

[msongs]

4. a tad bulky, must be a raincoat or overcoat, right? not a dress nt

[Ms. Toad]

5. That's one of the least flattering things I've seen her wear. n/t

[pazzyanne]

21. My thought exactly.

What was she thinking?

[trueblue2007]

31. LEAST FLATTERING YOU SAY??? melania waers ugly clothes

[Ilsa]

46. I like the black, red, tan, and white geometric long jacket.

The other items look bulky and ridiculous.

[Merlot]

53. I liked the flowered jacket over the simple shift dress.

The long jacket was nice, but I don't think it photographs well up close.

It feels like she tries to stand out on her clothing selections but just misses edgy and slides into frumpy.

[rusty fender]

68. Me too!

Great coat

[brush]

58. Pls tell me that's not toilet paper trailing her in the fourth photo.

[tblue37]

59. Even worse than this one:

And that orangey-brown color is the same as what you find in the diaper of a breast Fed newborn!

[CatMor]

64. That dress makes her over inflated kidneys ...

look even bigger. The dress is so horrendous I can't believe she chose to wear it. Looks straight off the rack at Walmart.

[RainCaster]

6. Did all those photos come from Craigslist?

Three ugly pieces of worn out furniture.

[Celerity]

47. the rocker is from ducduc, Collins is the model, it's for a nursery, and is actually around 1500 USD

Mid-Century Modern style.

I am pretty sure that print is by Marimekko, the Finnish design firm known for its bold prints. If it is not actually a print from them, it surely is meant to be a tribute.

7. Military couch camouflage

[Initech]

17. Ikea Chic...

[blugbox]

38. Hahaha!

I was just laughing at the couch itself until I saw the boots and traced them back!

Man that works great!

[sheshe2]

8. Trying to match hubbie in color and bulk?

[Cha]

33. The snake..

[sheshe2]

43. Omg 😮

😂

[Solly Mack]

54. Agree. Snake is beautiful.

Meh on the rest.

[brush]

56. The puffy sleeves aren't helping either, just make her look even wider.

[pandr32]

63. She's the snake

Just who is she, what is she like, and what does she do with herself? I think we may have our most indifferent FLOTUS ever!
Aloha Cha!

[Cha]

70. Aloha, pandr!

Yes, she's a toxic "snake" but the 2nd snake wore it better.

[Midnightwalk]

9. Neither at least smile for the camera

[procon]

10. Is there some trashy remark painted on the back? nt

[3catwoman3]

11. We must remember that most of her"modeling" was done...

...in the buff. No wonder she doesn't know how to dress.

[ProudLib72]

12. Did her husband molest her and get orange paw prints on her white dress?

[KY_EnviroGuy]

20. We had the same thoughts.

I thought the dress was white and Dotard used it for a bath towel....

[Skittles]

13. she thinks she would look great in a potato sack

she looks ridiculous

[MontanaMama]

14. Can this woman open her eyes

all the way? Gawd she’s ridiculous.

[tikka]

18. too many facelifts

[llmart]

40. No.

[MLAA]

15. She is vile. She chose to become and remain a trumpet.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. Strumpet?

[MLAA]

29. In that get up a frumpet strumpet?

[LakeArenal]

16. She looks like a slice of Colby-jack cheese

Considering his Cheetoness they are perfect for each other.

[Ilsa]

45. Perfect!!! And she

is wearing that because it is ridiculously expensive, not because it looks good on her. It wouldn't look good on anyone.

[Dem2theMax]

19. I vote for the chair as well.

What is with this family and the color orange?

[KY_EnviroGuy]

22. Faux gold....

just like the fixtures in his hotels.....

[Dem2theMax]

24. I do believe you hit the nail on the head!

[jmowreader]

23. I was under the impression...

...that we were through with First Ladies who made their clothes out of upholstery fabric.

[Skittles]

27. Laura Bush did it but we just knew she wasn't into fashion

but Melania, she really thinks she looks good in anything.....she does NOT

[NBachers]

25. Squint strikes again

?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds

[JI7]

28. she looks like a plastic freak

[Cha]

30. The snake..

[Maeve]

36. Absolutely! eom

[trusty elf]

32. That's not much better than the shroud of urine.

[blugbox]

39. OMG!!

Awesome comparison, and the name takes it to the next level haha!

[MFM008]

34. Looks like maggot

Rolled around on top of her dress....

[Achilleaze]

35. I really care. do you?

[NightWatcher]

37. Is trump converting Melania into Kim Jong Il? I know they're buds but damn

She looks to have the personality of a sofa cushion too

[llmart]

41. Egads!

That is the ugliest one yet, and she's worn some real stinkers.

Is the tightly cinched belt there to hold up her new, er, "kidneys" or to emphasize them?

Back in about 1970 I had a used couch in the basement that looked almost like that couch.

[dalton99a]

42. At least she's wearing something

Tablecloths work well:



And curtains




She likes the Swiss Guards

[smirkymonkey]

44. Mother of God!

Does she have a stylist? If so, they should be fired immediately! If not, she needs to get one. Her taste in fashion is criminal. And what is with the belted look all the time? It flatters nobody, especially women with large, um, "kidneys".

I'm going to vote to keep that pattern where it belongs:

[Tanuki]

48. Who wore a pith helmet better?

?crop=1xw%3A0.8388244308231173xh%3Bcenter%2Ccenter&resize=650%3A*&output-quality=55

[dalton99a]

49. And when in Egypt, use Indiana Jones

[Tanuki]

51. I'd have to give the "who wore it better" to the evil but dapper Dr. Rene Belloq!

/revision/latest?cb=20080517003902

[GoCubsGo]

50. It looks like she had more "kidney" surgery.

Or else she's trying to hide having taken up her husband's habit of stress eating? I wouldn't mock her for any weight gain or appearance of such, but I'm surprised that her shallow POS of a husband would permit her to go out in public looking like she put on 20 pounds--even if it was just due to her clothing.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

52. Horrible choice.....

Makes her "kidneys" look huge.

[madaboutharry]

55. I am always intrigued by the odd way she stands with her hands cupped inward.

The jacket in reply #31 cost $50,000. The price was mentioned on the news that day.

I think a lot of the time she looks like she is wearing a shower curtain. I think she tends to have taste in clothing that is very "Runway" and not actually real clothes.

[Harker]

61. Her hands are always auditioning.

She won't be able to show her face soon.

[Tanuki]

65. Maybe she cups her hands so people won't see how tiny Donnie's are in comparison.

[Harker]

66. That would be big of her. n/t

[democratisphere]

57. Chair is great. Couch and melanie are horrendous.

[Harker]

60. Against popular opinion...

I have to give it to the couch. Such a bold, unapologetic statement of timeless, gaudy staidness in an era of wanton expression of... of who knows what?

I think it says, "I'm incredibly hideous, yes - what are you?

[Phentex]

69. This made me LOL!

gets an unofficial DUzy award!

[Harker]

73. My first!

For which I kneel in fealty before you.

[Ohiogal]

62. At least she's wearing clothes

Given her propensity to be photographed naked.

[Harker]

74. Well...

if that's the best she has...
