"Fashion Is Foremost Inspiration"

Michelle O!

The Transatlantic Trendsetter

Michelle Obama is unlike any First Lady that the world has ever seen. Highly educated, tall, and beautiful, Michelle proves once again that she is just an ordinary woman doing extraordinary things.

Just over a year ago, First Lady Michelle was more so recognized for being a soccer mom than a high-style fashion icon. Family and the pursuit of the White House were far more important than a pair of Jimmy Choo’s. Fast forward a year later and she is still the same Michelle Obama but with far more grace, world adirmation, and fashion.

Yesterday Mrs. Obama joined the President as he journeyed to England.

However; jet setting isn’t be the only thing on Mrs. Obama’s agenda. Today, she and President Obama met with the Queen of England for tea, and the First Lady along with Sarah Brown (wife of the British Prime Minister) visited a cancer center in London. She (Mrs. Obama) is a woman who wears many hats and just happens to look great while doing so.

I heart Michelle Obama! She’s smart, powerful, very educated and her own individual. She can put on a garment priced at $70 and wear the heck out of it; she shops at J.Crew for Christ’s sake! How many First Ladies of the past would have done that? I also love the fact that she’s not trying to be like anyone else – she’s her own woman. When she’s not in J.Crew, you can catch the First Lady in designs by Jason Wu or Thakoon. Just hours after she was seen wearing a cardigan and pencil skirt by J.Crew it was sold out. Talk about having a high influence on people. It’s no wonder her approval rating has soared.
