The official cover for Michelle Obama’s memoir has been released.(snip)
In the photo, Obama is smiling with her right hand resting underneath her chin. She wears a simple white T-shirt that’s pulled off of one shoulder and hoop earrings. Her hair is blown out in loose waves and her skin is glowing.
According to Obama’s stylist Meredith Koop, she started with the idea of jeans and a T-shirt and wanting to portray her as all-American, relatable, and real. “It’s what Michelle wears as Michelle, not First Lady Michelle Obama. I wanted the modern ease of a tee mixed with the regal drapery of a toga. A little pinch of post-White House edge with that sexy shoulder, the tee falling off. No fancy designers, no distractions, just Ms. M herself, up close and personal,” Koop revealed.
The fact that she’s so obviously showing skin could have a hidden meaning. In 2009, after the White House released her first official photo as FLOTUS, people criticized the fact that she was wearing a sleeveless dress and showing off her toned arms. In the years following, she continued to make similar style statements despite the critics by wearing strapless gowns and off-the-shoulder dresses.
Commenters can’t wait to get their hands on the memoir and think the cover photo is “elegant,” “gorgeous,” “inspiring,” and “beautiful.”
In the lead-up to the cover debut, Obama has been sharing personal photos and stories that are in the book, including a picture from her wedding night.

Dude, that’s not a picture, that’s an art project
Things are often exactly as they appear.
She looks okay, but nothing to go all gaga about.
She’s pretty much ruined the neck of that tshirt, though.
Who was the lady she was embarrassing (the one who was trying to wipe a mess off of her lap?) - Seems like Nbr 3 in succession: Boehner’s wife?
It’s a MAN baby!!!!!
Believe me, she topped that one for ugliness and garishness many times over.

You can’t polish a turd, even with the best Photoshop program in the world.
Lots of women don’t have pictures of themselves when they were pregnant.

Wig blown in loose waves. That’s not her hair. What is she ashamed of her race and why is she trying to appear white?
Sasha looks just like her in that photo.
You ever see what a good cosmetologist can do with a sow’s ear?
