like whoa: michelle obama.
A black Barbie doll she’s not. Try Harvard educated attorney, mom, and stunna.
And forget Barack Hussein. Her middle name is LaVaughn and she’s a walking breathing testimony to the possibilities of how dynamic, balanced and beautiful women can be. She radiates inner beauty and quiet strength. And like whoa her arms are sick perfection. And what? South Side walk it out. She’s also gonna be living on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue come January 21. Is this even real?

I am SO inspired by her. I have some plans in the works in the next 2 years and they are a direct result of Michelle and Barack.

It’s funny that you write that Simone cause I’ve got post ideas up my sleeve regarding Barack’s extra ordinary rise to the Presidency. Its nothing short of amazing.

As for Michelle, the chic is just Superbad. I love her toothy grin and her smart dame status. She’s truly a woman that women can aspire to. I know she’s gonna rock it out when it comes to the fashion game.
Not to many people can make ruffles look chic.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that is CRUSHING on Michelle right now. I love her, I swear I do…..
And that is a great pic of her.

I totally agree about the “Black Barbie” comment in particular. Educated, obviously in great physical and mental shape, and showing working mothers everywhere how truly to DO IT BIG!
…and I’m trying to get arms like hers when I grow up…lol!

“A black Barbie doll she’s not.” If I’m reading that correctly, that Michelle isn’t especially anything to look at, I totally disagree. Michelle is very, very attractive. She is also becoming a fashion icon.

No such a thing Slim Thug. What I meant is that Michelle is more than her beauty; she’s substance and then some.
Tsk. I thought you would’ve thought better of me…LMAO!

Please pardon me, Ms. GT. My bad. Now I see it.
Ms. GT, Smooth Thug is a old dude from the Disco 70′s. I remember this particular song by, I think it was, D.C. LaRue? But anyway, the song is about how this fella went to the disco one night, wasn’t really doing too much of anything, then all of a sudden, there she was… the most beautiful lady that he has ever seen. The song then goes into him telling her how stunningly beautiful she is and how her looks have totally swept him off his feet. One of the lines of the song says, “… you’re such a classy lady, you were made for this night.” That line puts me in mind of how Michelle is going to look on the night of January 20th, the night of all those formal inauguration balls in Washington. Each and every one of us will look at Michelle, envy the beautiful gown she will be wearing, admire her beauty, and we will all say, “… you’re such a classy lady, you were made for this night.”

Wow, I have never seen this outfit. She looks stunning. Can you imagine what their first Family Christmas cards from the white house might look like? I am sure next year they will be just BEAUTIFUL!!
