Michelle Obama mmm....Fashion ICON or Fashion MISS

April 3rd 2009 19:43

Michelle Obama---gotta love her! Being that she and her husband Barak Obama, are the first African American president America has seen. Her style and fashion supercedes most in politics, making her a role model and fashion diva, many has come to fashion after.
I'm not sure if she measure's up to all of the hype mentioned in fashion though. I do truely love her style, classic, colorful, taylored, etc, but does she truely have what it takes to become one of the most fashionable diva's in our modern history.

YOU BETCHA! Many of you might highly differ with me but you have to check her fashion record sweety

Mostly, not everything, she wears hits the fashion currency mark exactly. (I would be lieing if I stating that I liked or have loved everything that she's wore

) Nevertheless, we can't always get it right all of the time. Michelle Obama has truely inspired me personally as the rest of the world with her class and swagger.

I am a AA woman in American and I believe that she represents my culture well. Her husband Barak Obama has truely found someone worthy enough, fashion and style wise, to be called 'First Lady' of the United States of America. I do believe that we will be talking about her keen since of style, dress, clothing and fashion for many years to come. The pics below shows her beautiful ensemble worn to visit the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth herself at Windsor Palace during the G-20 Summit. Michelle visited children, schools, bought alms and gifts, everything that dignitary in her spot light would do. Of couse she had mockers, in regards to her 'touching the queen'. You have to understand that we 'Americans' are pure 'down home folks' especially African Americans. We are outgoing and no one is a stranger that crosses our paths.

I would love to meet Michelle Obama, talk to her, possibly sip green tea and talk and share idea's on how to raise our children and be the best wives that we can be. Not to mention she is, in my opinion, a great bargain shopper(J.Crew, etc.) Now this woman could be buying the most exquisite of worldwide fashions, and the most expensive, but she and her husband chooses to support our designers and american made clothing. KUDDO's!!

London and Queen Elizabeth never knew what hit them when Air Force one landed on their patch of the world. Hopefully, Michele did not mess up too bad and Queen Elizabeth welcome's her back soon!

The new RED Stick look

June 24th 2008 20:19

Do all of you remember the retro-60,70,80’s look? Madonna, Goldie Hawn and a few other’s use to sport this trendy look. Well, it quickly went out of style, with the turn of the decade: 90’s is here!!! I grew up in the 80’s and at the time, loved the style. But who doesn’t love and try to ride the trend tide in their decade? We all do.

The blue eye shadow, the poofy hair, the curly perms, the leather w/zipper jackets, the whole nine yards. You’ve probably seen that some aspect of this past trendy style is back and a big hit in Hollywood. Lipstick, especially. I personally, really use to hate RED lip color. I felt it made people look like vampires or zombies. But Hollywood has been incorporating the color red, very nicely, I must say, in movies and on celebrities. I like the new, up to date, red lip color, especially with the opaque face.

I brings back the whole Eva Gardner and Audrey Hepburn. Eva Gardner and Audrey Hepburn as that timeless look of the early 50’s. CLASSIC….one might say! The flowing waved/curled hair, clean matte complexion, red or other color of lip tent. Audrey Hepburn and Eva Gardner were truely trendsetters of their day and they continue to be style and trendsetters of this day. Kate Hudson, Eva Longoria, Julia Roberts and more has sported these looks recently at award shows and while on outings.(paparazzi gets all the good shots!!).

Guys, I just love the look so much, I had to write about its beauty!!!!

Stay GORGEOUS!!
