Let the Parties Begin

Share

(Newser) – The first couple changed into new duds after a busy day and dropped in on the first of 10 inauguration balls they are scheduled to attend, the AP reports. They treated partygoers to their first dance as a presidential couple, with Michelle wearing a white, full-skirted dress by Taiwanese designer Jason Wu. The first lady will follow tradition and donate it to the Smithsonian.
