It’s Official: Michelle Obama in VOGUE Mag!


Next month, Michelle Obama will hit the stands in Vogue Magazine. Following Hillary Clinton, Michelle is the second First Lady to grace the cover. It’s not confirmed what exactly she’ll wear, but we do know she’ll be flaunting Jason Wu. The Washington Post reports:

In the cover photo, taken by Annie Leibovitz, Obama is leaning on a soft beige sofa at the Hay Adams Hotel, where the first family stayed days before the historic inauguration. Obama is wearing a magenta dress by designer Jason Wu, who designed her inaugural ball gown. Her hand rests under her chin. Her left hand folded beneath her. She is wearing a diamond that you do not often see her wearing in recent appearances.

Honestly, the last few articles in Vogue have been rather lackluster. So, Michelle will add a bit of color…literally.

I Want to Meet Rahni Flowers



Hairstylist Rahni Flowers is the man standing behind the first lady...literally.
Since Michelle Obama was 18, Rahni Flowers has been managing her tresses, making sure her look is always up to par. In his recent interview with Rachel Ray, Flowers discusses Inauguration style preparations and even offers tips on how to score the first lady look.
Rachael asked if he will continue to work with Michelle now that she's away from his Chicago salon and in Washington D.C. Flowers then stated: "It would not be a very pragmatic thing to fly me back and forth to Washington D.C. in light of the economic climate in the United States." Instead, he's training people who live in D.C. to maintain her look and her schedule.
How's that for a savvy stylist who isn't afraid of saving a buck or two. I'll take him!
