First Lady Fashion!!

With such a fashionable, model-tall First Lady newly in the White House, the buzz surrounding her sartorial sensibilities is proof that fashion and the national mood go hand in hand.  To get Michelle Obama's effortless American-chic look, go for clean, classic cuts, bold colors and patterns, and opt for minimal jewelry - a few smaller pieces speak volumes.  Also, like the First Lady, pay attention to the details: the color of a coat's lining a belt cinched over an unbuttoned cardigan; a brooch pinned dead-center on the collar of the dress instead of near the shoulder. All add stylish flair and a touch of individuality to whatever you're wearing, and yet you will still appear appropriate, ladylike and polished.
