Freshman Congressman Frederica Wilson likes her hats

How did I miss this? Washington Post's Robin Givan (or more accurately, Newsweek's new hire) profiled freshman congresswoman Frederica Wilson (D-FL) in early December. The representative-elect is known in her home state for wearing embellished and decorative hats and often wore them on the Florida Senate floor. However, when she come to Washington next month she will learn that things are a little different since the House floor bans hats.

Robin Givhan leaves the Washington Post

The New York Times is reporting that Robin Givhan, the famed writer of the Washington Post and 2006 Pulitzer Prize winner is leaving the newspaper to join the revamped Newsweek as a special correspondent for style and culture. Givhan was with the Post for 15 years and often covered the First Lady, including writing a scathing piece on her when she wore shorts last year on a trip to the Grand Canyon. She also penned a book about the First Lady entitled "Michelle: Her First Year as First Lady" that was released earlier this year.
