Michelle Oh!

Fab finds to pull off that First Couple look. Bettina Prophete
Essence // Essence

Michelle Oh!

"Michelle Oh!" \\ President and Michelle Obama Next Slide

Throughout the 2012 election season, our First Lady has set the campaign trails ablaze with her fiery spirit and signature style. As she navigates the whirlwind of fund-raisers and rallies of supportive volunteers, FLOTUS can always be found at the center of the action, poised and polished. Not one to shy away from the fashion forefront, above she elegantly wears a form-fitting suit in an eye-catching royal blue. Her silky top contributes a luxe and feminine feel, while her bright earrings and pumps add a fun touch. You, too, can turn it up a notch with key office pieces: Mix power with play and punch up your tailored suit by choosing a bold color. A patent kitten heel is a chic way to comfortably heighten your stature. Have your other half coolly complement your look, just like POTUS does for the First Lady. A sleek tie that picks up on a hue in your standout blouse will result in a powerful combo. Now you can step out with these steals and make a vibrant statement of your own.

fashion: trends & must-haves for your wardrobe

  • Floral-appliqué triangle bikini

    The best swimsuit for your body type—yes, yours!

    When morning talk shows and local newspapers dole out their seasonal swimsuit shopping advice, I’m usually pretty disappointed by the lack of body types represented. What about the women who don’t resemble fruit? (Or aren’t boy-shaped—the third “one of these things is not like the other” category I’ve never quite understood. Couldn’t they say “banana?” Or is that somehow more offensive than “apple” and “pear” shapes?)
