When I think of Michelle Obama, I think (along with many other women) – ARMS! With arms like that it is little wonder that she is mostly seen in sleeveless dresses!
This impressive woman has done a lot to help awareness of healthy eating in an effort to reduce the growing obesity amongst our children. She has even taken steps to demonstrate healthy eating by having the White House Kitchen Garden (an organic garden) planted – the first time there has been a vegetable garden at the White House since Eleanor Roosevelt!
But Michelle Obama’s initiatives are not what often draws attention in the media – no, everyone wants to know what she is going to wear.
Jackie Kennedy all over again?
No, she has made her way gradually into the fashion scene with a much different approach than Jackie did. And without the causing the outrage that resulted from extravagant spending on clothes and hair. (See more about that in the Salt Lake Tribune article mentioned below)
Here are several articles discussing Michelle’s style, and this is just a very small representation:
