Michelle Obama is giving fans a glimpse at "The Look," her new book coming out in the fall. In the book, reflects about how her appearance during her time in the White House was "constantly being dissected" and aims to "reclaim more of that story" for herself.
The former first lady, whose memoir "Becoming" was a bestseller in 2018, announced on Instagram on June 5 that her new book will be released on November 4. "The Look" is her first book since her 2022 bestseller, "The Light We Carry."
"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. "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."
Obama, 61, wrote that "The Look" is "a reflection on my lifelong journey with fashion, hair, and beauty."
"Inside, you’ll find some of the outfits that have meant the most to me, but more importantly, the moments that I lived through in them — big and small, personal and political, historic and ordinary — that were as memorable as the clothes themselves," she continued.
The former first lady is also sharing the stories of her stylist, makeup artist and hairstylists who helped shape her appearance during her time in the White House.
"The Look is about more than fashion," she wrote. "It’s about confidence. It’s about identity. It’s about the power of authenticity. My hope is that this book sparks conversation and reflection about the ways we see ourselves — and the way our society defines beauty."
My goodness MO, it’s just clothes. Thank God they covered you even though many were crazy looking and ill fitting, and stop obsessing with yourself and your fixation on how badly you feel about you. Just move on to something of real importance in this world, God can’t help you if you continue being so stuck on yourself.
Keeping herself front-and-center has me concerned of her future in major US politics.
Londoners would surely appreciate Big Mike reclaiming this that can never be unseen.
ugly den
ugly now
Yep. 99% of the First Wookie’s complaint against the world is how ugly she looks. As Barack said, Ya can’t put lip stick on a pig...
Boob belts.
Who can forget those?
She is ugly and she is self obsessed. A winning combination. Mooch will make an ass of herself with this book.
And yet she was on the cover of Vogue multiple times, yet a real model like Melania was snubbed both Trump terms. No bias there right?
fixed it for you
More like a linebacker next to a couple of attractive cheerleaders
The tittle should be “Sasquatch”
waaaa, waaaa, I’m a victim over here. I’ve been so victimized I’m a multi millionaire with four homes.. please feel bad for me with millions of adoring fans.... waahhh.
She's still trying to explain this First Lady flying "look."
My God, why doesn’t that stupid, sick b!tch get off the stage. Her 15 minutes of fame are up.
Just another book about drag queens that will be read to school children in democrat cities. /spit
LOL!! Old boob belt must have read the comments here on Free Republic!!
Where is that picture that has a Ferrari and a dump truck in the first frame and Melania and Mooch in the next ... ??
“’how my hair was styled,’ she wrote.”
We never saw her true nappy head. 100% cultural appropriation with wigs galore.
