The US election may be over, but as always in this world, the men get noticed for their policies and politics and the women get noticed for… what they wear.

And whilst Sarah Palin has to hand back her $150,000 campaign wardrobe, Michelle Obama is making waves with hers for all the right reasons.

She’s clearly got a thing for red dresses. She divided opinion with the red dress she wore on election night but the latest red dress that she wore when posing with Barack and the Bushes has gone down a storm. It’s nice to see bit of glamour in the White House, and nothing says glamour like a red dress!

In fact I’m thinking of taking a leaf out of Mrs O’s book myself this Christmas. I do love a little black dress but I like to stand out from the crowd, and there’s something just so Christmassy about a red dress.

I think I’ll go with a plus size red dress from Marisota for Pete’s work’s Christmas party… but I’m not sure which…

I love this plus size red dress:

But then I also really like these red dresses:
