Fashion editor Mandi Norwood is soon to publish a book about US' First Lady Michelle Obama and her much talked-about fashion sense. The piece entitled « Michelle Style : Celebrating the First Lady of Fashion » is supposed to hit the stands on May 5. You can be sure to have a very particular insight into the style of the woman recently named one of the '100 most beautiful' by People's Magazine.
The book offers fashion advices by the subject herself and her style is analysed and explained. What makes it so special? The fact that she is just like any of us plus a few dares (like her recent controversial Lanvin sneakers choice...). It actually makes her all the more of a fashion role-model to many women. Giving its life back to the traditional American sportswear consisting of bright colors, lady-like floral prints, simple but stylish elements in noble materials, and above all, confortable clothes, most of us could look elegant into.
There is only one criticism voiced by Leah Chernikoff of the Daily News with a touch of humour : could she finish off her stylish outfits with some chic purses?
I’d just love to see her carrying a purse,” she says. “Where does she keep her lip balm?”
So check that very trendy book when it hits the shelves on May 5th (William Morrow, $19.99) for an informed point-of-view on the « First Lady of fashion »'s style!
