The best thing about Mrs. O's ASOS frock isn't only that it's perfect for a summer barbecue -- it's that it's only $86. The First Lady stepped out in the checkered dress in Concord, NH, where she was supporting the troops and their families at the Joining Forces Cookout for National Guard and Reserve and Active Duty members.
