Huma Abedin, Fashion Icon or Good Wife Martyr?

Say what you will about perverted New York City mayoral candidate, Anthony Weiner, but his faithful-to-a-fault wife Huma Abedin is one lady we'd love to go shopping with.  Like First Lady Michelle Obama, Huma has a classic, chic style and a flair for bold patterns and bright colors.

But why is this lovely lady, who worked closely with Hilary Clinton during her candidacy for President and at the U.S. State Department, still standing by her sexting-crazed man?

In an editorial she wrote for Harper's Bazaar, Huma says: "New Yorkers will have to decide for themselves whether to give [Anthony] a second chance. I had to make the same decision for myself, for my son, for our family. And I know in my heart I made the right one."

To be honest, even if she's sure, we're not so sure the admittedly private Huma should continue to subject herself to the embarrassment and public ridicule that come along with being this troubled politician's good wife. We considered voting for Mr. Weiner, but he's stepped over the line of decency one too many times and at this point the odds of him defeating temperamental Democratic frontrunner, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, are now slim to none.  Hopefully, Huma will come to her senses and leave this loser. In the meantime, however, we encourage her to keep shopping...on her disgraceful hubby's dime.

Me at the Amazon Swim Shop preview. The online shop is stocked year-round with trendy and timeless swimsuit styles, cover ups and swim accessories from your favorite brands.
