Changing Fashion, Obama Style: Huffington Post

Quoted via Huffington Post:

Time and again it becomes ever more apparent, that one underestimates the Obamas at one's peril. Think of the great care and cunning that even goes into what they wear. The President for instance must have reasoned, 'Sure, I can wear an American flag and it will cost me nothing, it'll become the next cool thing!' As for Michelle Obama, she is a fashion natural, never looking as wonderful as when attired in some severe but striking sheath or suit or slacks.

Devoid of frills and furbelows, the First Lady most successfully complements her refined wardrobe, either audaciously, with fantastic faux jewels, or charmingly, with a playful brooch or an unassuming bow. Exuding capability and confidence from every pore, she might well instead to be arrayed in priceless ropes of diamonds and pearls. Still hardworking as a wife and mom, as if born to it, she has plunged into her new position as an international role model. Best of all, like Jackie before her, working ahead, Michelle takes pains required to make her smart appearance look always effortless. more
