finally, style we can believe in!
For the first style Friday post i would like to start by saying how exciting i am that we finally have a style icon in the white house. I bet you are wondering what makes a style icon?.... well, ill tell you. it is someone who takes fashion risks. someone who is willing to wear bold colors and modern statements. someone who is not intimidated by history, but rather inspired by it and passionate about redefining it. Michelle Obama is all these things. She takes classic ideas and updates them for our modern world. She wears bold color, not all that dreary wishy washy color that those lame republican first ladies wore. She has fun, and is feisty, and is not afraid to show it. Michelle doesnt discrimminate when chosing what to wear. she can wear anything from a jcrew outfit, to an up and coming fashion designer (jason Wu, only 26 years old) to Oscar de la Renta-this is true style people. The ability to dress not according to money or status, but to dress according to what you like and how you want to be presented. All hail the queen!
