Inauguration Undies: First Lady Style

Yesterday marked a historical moment when Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States. But what about the intelligent, stylish First Lady, Michelle Obama?

Michelle has been a favorite with the people ever since she was seen wearing her fashionable yet pocket book practical pieces from stores, such as The Gap, as she campaigned alongside her husband. Last night marked the pinnacle, celebratory moment for the Obamas as they attended ten inauguration parties, as is tradition with each new president.

President Obama and the First Lady made their initial appearance last night at the Neighborhood Ball and he started off by saying, “First of all, how good lookin’ is my wife!”

Michelle was stunning in a glamorous, white full-length, one-shoulder gown (images above) by young American designer Jason Wu. His collection is a "manifestation of (his) eclectic and diverse background. Born in Taipei but having lived in Vancouver, Paris and Tokyo, he combines modern lifestyle dressing with the spirit and detailing of haute couture that is both innovative and romantically reflective." If this designer is a sign of things to come with this new administration, he sums up the collective hope and inspiration projected with the new president.

HOW TO LOOK FIRST LADY FABULOUS:

• 2 parts ~ style and classic elegance
• 1 part ~ choosing a designer who reflects your personal style and world outlook
• 3 parts ~ convertible lingerie that makes you feel confident, comfortable, and coquettish

The first two ingredients are up to you. To get the lingerie right with Michelle's one-shoulder dress, choose a convertible bra that allows you to play with the straps and bring it across your body. A convertible bra will ensure that your breasts stays put and you'll look flawless all night. It will also keep your bra from migrating down to your waist. That is always a bonus!

For a simple convertible bra solution, Eve's Apples loves the Natori Memory Foam Bump Convertible Underwire Bra (black bra image above center) for $54 in black or cafe and pairing it with the sexy Natori Sheer Femme Hipster for $18 in black, cafe or black coffee.

For something a bit more romantic and lacy, Eve's Apples adores the silver lingerie set by Blush (image above center). The Blush Precious Charm Convertible Bra is $32 and matching Precious Charm Thong is $16.


Here's to looking as fabulous as the new First Lady and to Celebrating Your Inner Eve!
