Fashion peeps simply cannot stop talking about Michelle Obama's style, and Simon Doonan is the latest to offer up his two cents.
The Barneys creative ambassador-at-large was recently asked if he thinks FLOTUS is chic. He replied:
"She dresses appropriately. I don't think of her as being chic. As a public servant you can never appear to be chic. You need to look kind."
Though he certainly has a point about dressing appropriately as a politician, we just can't believe he doesn't think MObama is chic. She may not be a fashionista/clotheshorse like Sarah Jessica Parker or Anna Dello Russo (that would be WILD!), but she is always stylin'.
If anything we'd say she's very chic, but in an understated way.
Ch-ch-check out some of the first lady's chicest looks in the gallery (below)!
Do U agree with what Simon says???

Monique Lhuillier must really feel like the First Lady of fashion tonight!
Taking a break from Jason Wu and Michael Kors, FLOTUS Michelle Obama decided to show herself off in one of Monique's sheer beaded creations for the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
The black fitted, draped chiffon gown features a high neckline in delicate Chantilly lace. An intricate design of jet black stones is featured around her neckline and shoulders, making her shine as the goddess she is!
Ch-ch-check her out as she posed with Conan O'Brien (above)!
It's not our favorite MOBAMA look, but hey… when there are so many good ones, that's not the worst thing in the world.
Michelle Obama joined four former first ladies — Laura Bush, Hillary Clinton, Barbara Bush, and Rosalynn Carter — at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Center opening ceremony in Dallas on Thursday.
We don't know what they talked about. We assume they all complimented each other on something, or remarked about what a pleasant day it was.
And we're sure some of the other ladies felt a little miffed that FLOTUS looked better than them in her pale indigo dress and matching coat, multi-strand pearl necklace, and gray pumps.
But what can you do???
MObama is a style icon and very few can even hope to compete with her.
It's not like the other ladies looked bad — they were dressed very appropriately — but, really, it was a losing battle.
She not only wore the dress with the sloppy bow, but she also dragged out those pink Balenciaga shoes once again for the Coach 3rd Annual Evening of Cocktails and Shopping event in Santa Monica on Wednesday.
At least she paired the outfit with a cute coral Coach bag, but you'd think she'd wear something different for such a fashionable event.
If Kodak wasn't bankrupt and nearly obsolete, we'd call this a Kodak moment!
The First Family were all dressed to impress as they attended Easter services at St. John’s Episcopal Church on Sunday in Washington, D.C.
Michelle Obama was the epitome of understated elegance in a pale gray, rose-print Prabal Gurung dress with matching coat and silver kitten-heeled pumps.
Adore! Beautiful choice!
Sasha and Malia Obama followed their mother's stylish example and wore simple yet pretty shifts with cardigans and flats.
And wasn't Barack Obama so handsome in his gray suit that subtly matched the First Lady's outfit?!
Gosh, could they BE any more perfect?
We don't think so. They've reached the zenith of perfection.
