First Lady Michelle Obama celebrates her first full year in the White House Wednesday, and while she has done splendidly in the public eye as a mother, wife and and champion of social causes, a lot of people have also focused on something else entirely: her wardrobe.

Mrs. Obama, who won a spot on People's 50 Most Beautiful List, has been nothing short of a vision of style, grace and beauty, putting herself together with timeless fashionable ensembles that scream “fashionista” quicker than you can say Jackie O.

She was also honored by Council of Fashion Designers of America for the effortless way she brings vibrant styles to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, draping everything from Jason Wu to J.Crew over her toned figure.

Mrs. Obama stands out because "she doesn't dress like a first lady," Washington Post Fashion Editor Robin Givhan told Good Morning America on Wednesday. "I think she's changing that definition. She looks like someone that you would know as opposed to someone who looks like there's a wax statue of her somewhere.

First Ladies Of Fashion: Classy & Matchy!

“I think it helps her to relate more to people at large,” Givhan said, “because I think women look at her and they see more of themselves in her than they would, perhaps, someone who dressed more like a traditional first lady."



The First Lady always look great!!!

this is a shame that all feel the need to put down the first lady. Everyone has a choice in how they dress. You don't have to like it at all. At least respect who you are talking about. This is not Jon Gosselin here.

Style? No, I don't see many around the DC area that dress like the First Lady. She's moved off of Talbots and Anne Taylor...no one wanted to buy her choices.

her outfits are very unflattering. Most first ladies dress bad though. Not sure if it's in their contract or what. Like her dress when they won.. looked like she had a flaming pumpkin straight out of sleepy hollow on her stomach.

All Hail the FLOTUS and her array of 'boob belts'. She is no "Jackie-O" don't even try to put her in the same category. She and her staff have made some of the most awful fashion faux pas choices for her at state events.

It is so amusing how the media portrays this giant klutz of a woman - she is anything but graceful, she is NOT attractive and she cannot dress worth shi t. She is totally classless.
