In continuing with my Black History Month celebration,this one was a no brainer for a spotlight. Michelle Obama has not only made history for being the first black women as the first lady of the Free World but also a fashion icon. Not since Jackie O have we seen such glamour,flair, fierceness and down right goregoeusness. Mrs. O serves as an inspiration everywhere on how to make a statement in both her charity work as well as her fashion choices.
She gained much recognition while Barack Obama was on the campaign trail for her fashion choices, but what she did on inauguration night,blew us all away! She wore a then unknown designer by the name of Jason Wu and catapulted him into super star status overnight. She has always made wise choices in fashion, and also has taken risk that other First Women wouldn't dare all while maintaining class. Take for instance her one shoulder shirt that had everyone up in arms. I thought she looked FAB! She loves to look like the everyday woman by wearing accessible brands like J.Crew and Talbots, and she loves a kitten heel since she is already naturally tall. Anytime she is seen wearing anything from those lines,it sells out in record time. Florals are also a favorite of hers as well. She has the body of a real woman with curves, and has committed to good health as a positive example. Her classic standard looks are sheath dresses and skirts with embellished cardigans and also, pearl jewelry. Some of her most favorite designers include Azzedine Alaia, Takoon, L'Wren Scott, and Narcisco Rodriguez. There aren't enough positive things to say about her and what she has committed to changing in this country for the better. The fact that she has added major fiercness to an otherwise dull White House is an excellent reason to celebrate her as our Black History Spotlight today. Enjoy the pics!! LOVE!
