Interesting choice of colors by Laura Bush, a dove gray dress and matching coat. Not a color we frequently see on her. What's up, Laura? You think she'd be in party mode.
If anything, her outfit looks warm ... or cool.

I also kind of love that Barack and George almost look coordinated with their red and blue ties.
