    I know Jackie Kennedy added her touches to the White House and provided a tour. Well….a fabulous job Mrs.Pritzker orchestrated , research and combined it in a coffee table book. The very old vintage combined with modern aesthetics , remodeling and design is breath taking. When one considers the brilliant job her husband did with the budget, continues to strive and achieve in so many other categories it is quite apparent Illinois has been blessed with the greatest Governor and First Lady ever. J.B. Pritzker is without question a Presidential hopeful and god only knows what his wife could do with the White House. Heaven on earth !!! Stick around Illinois another term J.B. , you will have pulled us out of a macro quagmire to excellence and then run for President. YOUR COUNTRY NEEEDS YOU!

    In fact that is done how should and the Governor's wife is very beautifully dressed and her hair is also very good. Not for nothing they do Hyatt and the nicest hotels. I already heard of the Prizker price but i did not know that was for architecture. Such an estate can't be labelled right away, it just is their style. MK Pritzker tends to wear too long dresses,.My advice: just above or on the knee. Sleeveless always works with her. Ideal for her is Chanel. Also a dark blue woolen cape with light mink fur collar on and all white shirt and finished with a skirt, grey nylons with a dessin and pretty high heels. In summer a very nice jumpsuit buttons at choice in white on half heels black or brown . And also a white shirt sleeves half up with a sitde gesp on the sleeves on a beige classic Ralph Lauren pantalon with side pockets and plies for the belly on brlue half booties. . Yellow golden round or oval shaped jewellery a touch of smaragd and a touch of sapphire,. I won't go deeper in on this topic. That house is more than ok you know.
