Michelle Obama in London

Looking chic in a pale green pencil skirt and a beaded cream cardigan from J. Crew, Michelle Obama visited a cancer care center in London with Sarah Brown, wife of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. President Obama and his stylish First Lady are in London for the G20 Summit to discuss the world economy with other world leaders. Amid the chaos at London’s financial district, Obama’s signature classic style provided a welcomed dash of class, continuing her impact as a style icon overseas.

President Obama and the First Lady

Since their arrival to Great Britain, Michelle Obama has wowed the public with her elegant looks and her undeniable charm. She landed with her husband in London’s Stansted International Airport wearing one of her favorite designers, Jason Wu. The sunny yellow frock embraced the freshness of spring and also highlighted her natural beauty. It is refreshing to see that even on European soil, Obama is wearing American designers, said Wu. Wonder what designer Michelle Obama will be wearing when the First couple meets Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip at Buckingham Palace?

First Lady Michelle Obama on the cover of Vogue

The fashionable First Lady Michelle Obama will appear on the cover of Vogue, on stands in New York and Los Angeles Feb. 17. For the magazine’s March issue, Obama chose to wear a beautiful fuschia silk dress from one of her favorite designers, Jason Wu, who created her lovely inaugural gown.  

Praised for her style having glamour without having to sacrifice comfort, Vogue met with the First Lady after her husband’s election night in November. Obama is only the second first lady to grace their cover. Anna Wintour, the magazine editor at Vogue, chose Obama for the cover because “it’s inspiring to see our first lady so serene and secure in her personal style.”

The First Lady has favored the styles of new American designers, including Wu and Isabel Toledo, but she believes that women should wear what makes them feel comfortable. “First and foremost, I wear what I love,” she says. “That’s what women have to focus on: what makes them happy and what makes them feel beautiful. If I can have any impact, I want women to feel good about themselves and have fun with fashion.”
