Michelle Obama demonstrated a fresh skill to the American people last week when she completed an impressive 142 swivels of a hula hoop on the South Lawn of the White House at a "healthy kids fair" to promote fitness and nutrition for children. She hitched up her studded belt over a blue cardigan, held out arms hung heavy with bangles and skilfully sashayed hips clad in figure-hugging black capri trousers.

Mrs Obama was again filling the role she gave herself during her husband's presidential bid of the nation's "Mom-in-chief". For her legions of fashion devotees, it was also further evidence of the style she has brought to events ranging from glitzy dinners to physical work-outs.

Almost a year after Barack Obama won that historic race, there have been numerous books about the election, the first African-American incumbents at the White House and a new era of American politics.

Now the First Lady is now the subject of a series of glossy books celebrating a closet that has made the transition from the campaign trail to Washington. Published this week by Hachette, Mrs O: The Face of Fashion Democracy is a tribute to the mix of designer brand with high street outfits that is earning her glowing acolades.

Chic’s face looks intent on screwing itself into a block of wood.

What’s next? I’m surprised they didn’t invent an award to give her for hula hooping.

“Michelle Obama demonstrated a fresh skill to the American people last week when she completed an impressive 142 swivels of a hula hoop”

Yeah, that’ll look good on the resume.

She was just as happy wearing $150 off-the-rack items....? So would I, if I could afford $150 items.

Oh...you must have missed it, O'Reilly gave her the title of 'Patriot' for her hula hooping.

He sucks up to them constantly, but this was beyond the pale!

If she has a “growing band of fashion devotees”
are they “the belt brigade”?

Great, another fawning article telling us that our eyes are wrong.

Michelle Obama almost always looks like she just went shopping at Ross Dress For Less. Ugly patterns, too-small 'trendy' clothes, mall style.

And as far as I'm concerned she shows way too much skin for a First Lady. Arms, back, shoulders naked, dresses too short....she is TACKY with no class.
