Michelle Obama is still a YOUNG woman, why submit to the cookie cutter image and trot about in a BORING neurtral/pastel suit. She likes color, she looks good in color, styles have changed. DO YOU, Mrs. Obama, DO YOU!

i AM HAPPY TO SEE MRS. M.OBAMA AS A FIRST LADY TO BE HER STLYE AND GRACE IS WHAT EVER GOOD MAN WANTS. THE LOVE AND CARE SHE DISPLAYS FOR HER FAMILY BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES EVERY TIME I SEE HER. I LOVE HER FOR THAT. ESSENCE I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE A COMPLETE STORY ABOUT HER.

Michelle Obama inspires me as a woman. She's strong, smart, commited, and has a lot of charisma. She is a fashionista. When they went to vote, they looked like a regular family and people were able to relate to them. I do however think that she should have combed her hair and that of her daughters. That's it. Her wardrobe is great. They have my full support and I will continue to pray for the family for strength, inspiration, and guidance. The road ahead is steep, but God will be there with them. He's taken them thus far, and will accompany them in this journey.

I'm so proud of them! Love You Obama Family and Michelle is a beautiful first lady...There is hope for the Black Family in America! God Bless the Obama family and his administration

Mrs. Obama is a beautiful lady and no , suits are not required, in order for her to look professional. She could wear dressy dresses. A jacket would look better on her with sleeveless out fits. November 4, when she went to vote , she looked terrible. No matter how tired you are or how busy, you should look your best. Some people say Oprah Winfrey can go out looking any way she wants to because she is rich. I do not agree, take a few minutes and fix your self up. Especially if you are a public figure. Mrs. Obama is to be the next First Lady and is making history, she should look like a well dressed First Lady.When attendind functions , professional women should always wear hose. Bare legs are out for the intelligent woman. Michelle step up your style of dress for your self and the history books.

I just want to say, I'm proud of and I wish you the best in office, and to your wife, I love her and think she will be a classy and bright first lady, I know she won't be in hiding she will be right by your side. Congratulation President Barack Obama!!!

I greeted Michelle Obama when she came to Colorado Springs! I embraced her,she has a spirit that is so genuine. She is the epiphany of beauty! A meek & humble spirit,yet with the charisma and elegant style of a First Lady! God sits high and looks down low,and we can be sure that "he" still is in control"!! Michelle Obama,as a corporate career woman,a mother,devoted wife and leading lady of America,she is,truly a role model!

I so admire Mrs. Obama, she is such a strong BLACK WOMAN. The White House has become a colourful rainbow.

You have my support First Lady Obama. We love you and thank and praise God for you. You are beautiful and you are regal. We do need to rally around her. Now on a sistah-gurl note...any scandalous women who now have sights on your husband...we gotcha back on that too.

In photo 16, Michelle probably wore ballerina flats so that she wouldn't tower over Mrs. Biden; and Barack for that matter. Remember, Michelle is tall and has been trying to soften her image. After her speech at the DNC, Fox News and some Republicans labeled Michelle "unpatriotic and bitter". I think white voters have warmed to Barack, but still struggle to like Michelle. She'll need black women to rally around her and offer her our support over the next four years. Black women rock!

People clothes do not make your soul..Michelle style is great at less she have a style..you see color and who said that you had to be dress all fine those are white people got black people thinking if you dress a certain way then you are in..but it is ok for white people to dress anyway they like at any event..but as soon as black people the same at the same event black people got something to say..Michele do your thing for the ones dont like it then dont look..move on its whats in the heart not on the outside..OBAMA DO YOUR THING

she is a beautiful woman and definitely knows how to dress!!!

I love essence

Michelle Obama is a true beauty, she shows hard work, courage, and power just by the way she speaks and stands by her husband through everything, i truly feel that being like that is important as a mother, wife, and a woman. Many young black women today look up to her. I know I do.

MO brings a totally different view to America. As a tall, dark skinned African American woman her style will be unique and she'll bring a little bit of that south side favor. She can't and shouldn't do what Cindy McCain or Hillary are doing. Black women are ALWAYS criticized but secretly admired for their bold style and use of color. She's not a man so why wear suits all the time?
