Fashion Week Daily has grouped together First Lady Michelle Obama’s fashionista moments during her first 100 days as First Lady. In the book, Michelle Obama: 100 Days of Style, her fashion choices are chronicled from the Inauguration balls to her jet-setting to political events with her husband, Barack Obama. I’ve been waiting for a book to showcase her style, I’m not a fashion fanatic or a fashionista (though I like the word), but I like seeing what Michelle has chosen to showcase her fashion sense.  The book also has profiles on her most known/fave top designers  like Narciso Rodriguez and Jason Wu. If your a lover of fashion and a fan of Michelle Obama, be sure to pick it up.

Phenomenal Woman: Michelle Obama

1 Mar

Michelle Obama is now my new role model. Not because she is the United States first African-American First Lady, but because she has achieved so much as an African-American woman. Being that she’s ivy-league educated and raised from a two parent home, she breaks the stereotype of how society views African-American lives. Her intelligence and achievements aren’t the exception to the rule, but the actuality that is being forced on to every ney-sayer who believes that people of color cannot achieve the same lifestyle as white Americans. She’s a phenomenal woman.
