Is it really appropriate for Roll Call to comment on Fed nominee Janet Yellen’s clothing?

Roll Call, a DC publication that covers the US Congress, ran a column yesterday in its gossip section, “Heard on the Hill,” that criticized Federal Reserve chair nominee Janet Yellen for wearing the same outfit to her nomination announcement with the President as she did yesterday to her nomination hearing in the Senate.



Here’s Roll Call, noting that Yellen wore the same black outfit to both events:

Janet Yellen with President Obama in the infamous black outfit.


Whether Janet Yellen, President Barack Obama’s latest pick to head the Federal Reserve, proves to be the financial genius our sputtering economy so desperately needs, remains to be seen.

At least we know her mind won’t be preoccupied with haute couture….

Mind you, nobody has ever accused (Heard on the Hill) of being particularly stylish. But we do manage to switch up outfits on the reg.
