First Lady Michelle Obama knows how to work her style! She always looks glamorous and beautiful. We especially like her more casual fashion choices. Showing all fashionistas that gorgeous style doesn’t require a second mortgage on your house, Obama wore a pretty dress from H&M for her appearance on the TODAY Show with Matt Lauer yesterday. The navy and white dress is only $34.95, and is available now in stores for Spring. We admire the savvy First Lady for having her personal stylist add the sleeves, which customized the frock for the cooler weather. To get more mileage from your dress choices, style a similar look with a light blazer or a sheer tee underneath for added layers. Then, in Spring wear your dress with sandals and enjoy feeling the warm sunshine.

Winning Look from Maria Pinto

As the final stages for the next host of the Olympics are being completed, fashion has gotten into the game for Chicago’s bid for the 2016 Summer Games.

Designer Maria Pinto has created lovely looks for the delegates while they showcase their final presentations to the International Olympic Committee this week in Copenhagen. Pinto’s designs have been worn by other fashionistas, including the beautiful First Lady Michelle Obama. For the representatives, the Chicago-based designer wanted to create a capsule collection “where the women would be able to personalize their look to match their individual styles.” Pinto produced a mix-and-match line of essentials, including a slim jacket, pants, blouse and a dress. Known for her focus on attention to detail, she handcrafted her line with wool, cotton and silk charmeuse. Here’s hoping for the Windy City!

: First Lady Michelle Obama in Italy

Recently, the First Lady Michelle Obama joined the spouses of members of the G8 Summit for a tour of the earthquake damage in the medieval city of L’Aquila in Italy. Wearing a sunny yellow J. Crew skirt, a floral print cardigan from Liz Claiborne and a pretty Moschino brooch, Mrs. Obama looked lovely at the Palazzo del Governo of L’Aquila. Obama was in Italy along with her daughters, Sasha and Malia for her husband’s appearance at the G8 Summit.

It is so refreshing that Obama stays true to her favorite American designers, and chooses looks from brands, such as Liz Claiborne, that are affordable to all fashionistas.

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?
