Michelle is to politics what Jennifer Hudson is to pop stars [you readers will quickly learn just how much I love Jennifer Hudson]. She is newer to the game than many, but she is respectable, remarkably intelligent, strikingly confident, and a fierce little fashionista as well.
Michelle is a much needed breath of fresh air in the White House, using vivacious colors that pop [think: bright purples, oranges, and greens] for classic silhouettes that echo the sheaths made famous by Jackie Kennedy and Barbara Bush. And like Barbara Bush, a regular go-to in Michelle’s jewelry box is her strand of gumball-sized pearls. Jumbo pearls are not what your grandmother [or many other first ladies] used to wear, they are a statement-making accessory for the confident, professional woman. Wear them with a traditional LBD [little black dress] or take a cue from Michelle and go brighter and bolder with your colors. Either way, channel your inner uber-confident powerful woman and try oversized pearls on for size. Sometimes bigger really is better…
