Real Style: Michelle Obama

Urban ran a feature on Michelle Obama last week and dubbed her a style icon. I agree totally!

Just as her husband has captivated the world with his eloquence and mandate for change, she has captivated the world with her fuss-free style, love for colours, and pick of unconventional designers. Her dressing is not stuffy yet befitting of her position as First Lady. She knows her asserts and how to accentuate them with the right silhouettes and styles. Check out her signature styles below that we can incorporate into our wardrobe as well.

  • Sleeveless Sheath dresses

The silhouette fits her to a T and shows off her toned arms. This style is great for working ladies like us. Just accessorise with a nice necklace and earrings and you're ready to go!

  • Coloured cardigans

She made J.Crew cardigans hot property! Well, we can now get our fix of candy-coloured cardigans from Uniqlo!

  • Belts

Her cardigans are normally clinched with a simple belt to give a polished look.

  • Ballet Flats

You can still look dignified with ballet flats. But then, Michelle's height itself is an advantage. So it may not be suitable for girls of an average height.

Most importantly, walk with confidence like Michelle Obama and be yourself!!
