She really likes this outfit whether you do or not
So I just discovered this fascinating woman the other day. Her name is Louise Linton and she is married to the US Treasury Chief. During a visit to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in November 2017 she was encouraged by her husband to pose with him in photographs holding newly printed money- thus revealing the amazing outfit she was wearing in the photos below. Wow!
I suspect that the photographer would not have taken a full-length shot if she was not in it wearing that long leather skirt.She obviously has no problem vamping it up and her husband looks like a very happy man.
Live action footage of the event can seen here

I write this post for two reasons. First; if she rocked an outfit like that with such aplomb I bet she has worn some long leather coats as well and no doubt looked gorgeous in them. Second; it frustrates me to no end that such an exquisite woman has been the target of so much scorn from the press.
