Former First Lady Michelle Obama is releasing a book looking back at her favorite fashion and style moments over the years.
Obama said she wanted to write the beauty book, titled “The Look,” to “reclaim” her story after her looks were scrutinized during her time in the White House.
“During our family’s time in the White House, the way I looked was constantly being dissected — what I wore, how my hair was styled,” she wrote in an Instagram announcement.
“For a while now, I’ve been wanting to reclaim more of that story, to share it in my own way. I’m thankful to be at a stage in life where I feel comfortable expressing myself freely — wearing what I love and doing what feels true to me. And I’m excited to share some of what I’ve learned along the way,” she added.
The $50 book, to be released on November 4, features more than 200 photographs of the former first lady, including never-before-published images, according to publisher Crown Publishing Group.
Obama said the book will give readers a behind-the-scenes look at her most memorable looks and the meaningful moments that accompanied them. It will also introduce readers to her style team from over the years.
“The Look is about more than fashion. It’s about confidence. It’s about identity. It’s about the power of authenticity,” Obama said in her social media announcement. “My hope is that this book sparks conversation and reflection about the ways we see ourselves — and the way our society defines beauty.”
Obama has spoken out before about her style being scrutinized during her time in the White House.

This guy wrote a “style” book??? LOL!!!!!
Correction: “Michelle” should read “Michael”.
Just why would a “style icon” wear a garish bed sheet???
I thought so. So, future generations can go to the Smithsonian, and be dazzled by Big Mike’s bangs. Makes it all the more ridiculous that American media made a fuss over what FLOTUS did with “her hair.”
“Po me” she mumbled with a mouth full of wagyu steak.
“Profiles in Courage and Flopping Junk”
“Profiles in Boob Belts”
“An entire book about...MY LOOKS!”
Fifty bucks? How long before it is on the bargain table at Costo? And even then....
Big Mike hit every branch on the way down...
I’ll have to get a copy. I always wanted to know how to make clothing from 1980s furniture upholstery and drapes.
Isn’t this his 2nd? 3rd? book since leaving office?
Those were good. I must have missed them.
SCRITINIZED!?! My arse.
The media tripped over themselves to declare she is the most beautiful and stylish and well dressed woman in all of human history.
She hates white people and knowing she lives in a white built country. She expected her commie husband to turn USA into to just another African run s hole like Sierra Leone with her as queen. Biden almost finished it off but now that Trump is trying his best she is seething with anger and hatred.
Could that be a medical device worn under the clothing, perhaps?
Still, that doesn’t jive with the other (cough) pictures
That’s a MAN, baby!
