First Ladies of Style: Beyonce & Michelle Obama

So I'm pretty that my invite for Michelle Obama's NYC fundraiser dinner last night must have got lost in the mail. But is' all good though cause I am quite sure there will be other opportunities to kick it with my favorite first lady of all time.

  Check out pics of the ladies making the rounds in NYC.

Beyonce was one of the guests at the dinner and love her or hate her we can all admit that her post baby body is just ridic. To say she looks amazing is just a huge understatement.

Michelle Obama was also pictured chatting it up with talk show host David Letterman. The First Lady shared some personal details about her late father who suffered from multiple sclerosis and was unable to walk. "I think I learned from him the notion of unconditional love, the notion that kids don't really need anything but to know that their parents adore them. I think that's the greatest gift they gave us, just their constant support and stability. We had rules, we had boundaries, but there wasn't anything our dad wouldn't do for us," Obama said as tears welled in her eyes. She quickly opted to make light of the situation: "Don't make me cry. This isn't 'Oprah!' This is supposed to be Letterman. Where are the laughs?"


Love these Ladies!

Michelle Obama in South Africa- meets Madiba

What a lovely picture! Good to see recent images of Madiba.

Our First Lady Michelle Obama and her daughters are visiting South Africa and Botswana this week on an official state visit along with the first granny. The Obama's met with  Nelson Mandela at his home in Houghton, South Africa.

The first lady gave a moving speech at Regina Mundi Church in Soweto. Memorable quotes from her speech:

• " I want to be an example for girls in my country and beyond" - Michelle Obama in Soweto.
• "So today, I want you to know as you work to lift up your families, communities and your world know that you are never alone. You are joined with young people all over the world. I want you to say with one voice YES WE CAN!!" Michelle Obama in Soweto

FLOTUS pic of the day

Earlier this year FLOTUS appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show and discussed creating a national initiative to  support and honor American's service members and their families.

True to her word Michelle Obama and Jill Biden looked ripe for springtime on Tuesday as she  announced launched Joining Forces.

Love this look on her and Jill looks great as well! Thoughts??
 

Top 5 Lessons in Love from Michelle & Barack Obama

I love Michelle & Barack Obama. I love how the first couple is open with their relationship and they are not afraid to show emotion and be vulnerable in front of the world. .Barack Obama once said about Michelle “Sometimes, when we’re lying together, I look at her and I feel dizzy with the realization that here is another distinct person from me, who has memories, origins, thoughts, feelings that are different from my own. That tension between familiarity and mystery meshes something strong between us. Even if one builds a life together based on trust, attentiveness and mutual support, I think that it’s important that a partner continues to surprise.”

Here is my list of the top 5 things that we can stand to learn in the romance department from the First Couple

5. Make Yourself a Priority

Michelle Obama told Prevention Magazine - "I have freed myself to put me on the priority list and say, yes, I can make choices that make me happy, and it will ripple and benefit my kids, my husband, and my physical health. That’s hard for women to own; we’re not taught to do that. It’s a lesson that I want to teach my girls so they don’t wait for their "aha" moment until they’re in their 30s like I was (laughs). Maybe they can experience it a little earlier."

4. Try and get along with your mother in law:

You know that whole saying it takes a village to raise a child? The Obama's have proved it to be true by inviting Michelle Obama's Mom Marian Robinson to live with them and help take care of the children in the White House. "The girls are going to need her as part of their sense of stability,’ Michelle Obama told Newsweek magazine. So what's the lesson here: be nice to your significant others parents, you never know when you may them or..when they may need you.



3. Make Time For Romance:

I love how the Obama's go out for date night. Even after being together for 17 years, (they got married on October 18, 1992) they still make time for romance. I find this rule to be applicable even if you are married or still in the dating stages. Some couples get in the daily routine rut- meaning you get caught up in the craziness of everyday life, work or school that you don't make time to rekindle the romance. It's important to keep the fire lit by contuining to romance each other and ensure that you spend alone time with your mate. And ladies..dont let your man tell you he has no time, if the Prez can make time for date night so can your boo.
