First Lady in Fashion


First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama has been featured in today's Vogue online daily article. She was last seen on the cover of the magazine in March of 2009, two months shy of her husband's inauguration as the first black president of the United States, President Barack Obama. She was quoted saying “I love clothes...First and foremost, I wear what I love. That’s what women have to focus on: what makes them happy and what makes them feel comfortable and beautiful.” Known to don some of the most classic and elegant styles First Lady Michelle Obama has been said to be one of the most stylistic women in politics and fashion period since former First lady Jackie Kennedy, one of the first political trend setters known for her brilliant and sophisticated sense of style. Both women have shown the world how to take a place in world change in a male dominated society and create a difference politically while looking their best doing it. Her main style advisor is 41 year old Ikram Goldman from Israel who is the owner of the chicago based boutique Ikram boutique. Goldman is known for her vintage apparel within her store and has been said to posses a eclectic style. The First lady has stated her top 10 designers to be...
1.Naeem Kahn
2.Barbara Tfank
3.Isabel Toldeo
4.Jason Wu
5.Michael Kors
6.Azzedine Alaia
7.Narciso Rodriguez
8.Rachel Roy
9.Thakoon
10.Tracy Reese
What I find to be the best part is that this influential black woman has a prominent position in both a political aspect and social aspect of our country. She inspires and demonstrates to all young women that success and positivity are within arms reach, but for the young African American women and girls all over the world this woman will be more than just an inspiration, she will forever be an example of their own!
