$875 for a patent-leather purse?

The White House denies that Michelle Obama went a traveling with a $6000 designer purse.  It was the cheaper, $875, patent-leather version.  Hey, times are tough, and everyone, even the FLOTUS, has to economize.  Mom went shopping on Rodeo Drive, and all Malia got was this lame-ass sixties t-shirt. Some folks call that symbol "the footprint of the American chicken."
