Since leaving the White House in January, Michelle Obama has stayed relatively quiet and deprived us of her almost daily power-dressing inspiration. However, the former FLOTUS stepped out in N.Y.C. on Thursday in a vibrant summer sundress that we’re seriously hoping to copy for our next warm-weather event.
For a day out in Manhattan, Obama chose a knee-length frock with vertical stripes of shades of blue and green that elongated her frame. She paired the vibrant dress with cat-eye sunglasses, hoop earrings, and nude pointy-toe pumps, keeping her accessories minimal to let her dress take center stage.

While MObama has delivered no small amount of outfit inspiration during her time in the spotlight, the former First Lady has also spoken out about the sexist standards facing women in the public eye.

“People take pictures of the shoes I wear, the bracelets, the necklace—they didn’t comment that for eight years he wore the same tux, same shoes,” she said at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, revealing that her husband Barack Obama got away with wearing the same tuxedo for all eight years of his presidency.
“...Michelle Obama has stayed relatively quiet and deprived us of her almost daily power-dressing inspiration.”
A person with dignity and face would kill themselves after writing such mendacious drivel.
Still laughing...

I think Bossie there is wearing Vivian’s polka dot dress from Pretty Woman!
(And much better than ex-FLOTUS ever could!)
Looks like she's lost some weight. Her derriere will never respond to dieting as the size is genetic...the best she can do is minimize its conformation with careful choices of well-designed attire.

Brown straight hair on Michelle Obama = cultural appropriation.
Darn, after this one I have to now go look
This is sad, she must feel reallllly left out
I was wondering what you could’ve been looking at until I saw those toned arms.
We get the same crap in the UK....anything she does is hailed as genius.
Still to this day.
It’s seriously weird, like a childs comfort blanket.
It looks better on her than it does on houses being termited in the neighborhood.
Looks she’s wearing a beach umbrella.
After reading the posts. . .I had to click on the link.
I’m not judging. lol
It’s just me, I really have no interest in the Obamas anymore or any sycophantic article written about them.
It would look better on a woman.
