First Lady Fashion: En Vogue

Like so many fashionistas out there, we here at SAFSHOPS are not immune to being in love with our newest first lady's sense of style. We cheer her selections more often than cringe at them, but we always love her sense of individuality! We also love her sensible selections of mixing high-end pieces with modern mid-range clothes from J. Crew. One of our favorite bloggers, Alexis at J.Crew Aficionada has shared the news that all J.Crew items worn by Mrs. Obama'sin her recent March 2009 American Vogue cover shoot and editorial story will be available in their Fall 2009 line, but can be pre-ordered now.

First Lady Fashion: Inaugural Balls Edition

IMAGE SOURCE

We've just learned that the gorgeous and very bridal evening gown worn by our newest First Lady was designed by the young and up-and-coming designer Jason Wu. The gown is a departure for Mrs. Obama, who we have often seen in vibrant shades and tones of the rainbow. Personally, we here at SAFShops expected her to wear either a very regal purple gown or even a red dress. Even designers asked to create her look imagined her in richer hues.

Nonetheless, Michelle Obama was stunning last night in her white chiffon dream of a gown. For those of you newly engaged or looking for a prom dress, Jason Wu's gowns range in the $3,000 to $6,000 range, but this classically beautiful silhouette can be found at much more recessionista prices. Whether it is full-length, sexy or short and sassy, see below for our personal favorites.
