We’re a little nervous writing this post, because we’re scared that if we showed a little too much interest in the fab style and lovely looks of Michelle Obama, we’re going to get some kind of FBI file opened up on us. We don’t want to push Barack’s jealousy button! And we’re not going to reveal her age either, because that would definitely land us in some kind of federal prison. But today is our beloved first lady’s birthday, and we wanted to do something special to mark to occasion. That’s why we’ve gotten together our 20 favorite fierce styles of our flawless first female of fashion! From elegant evening wear at state functions, all the way through to presiding over the White House Easter egg hunt, Michelle has always lead the nation in awesome attire. Happy birthday, Michelle! Sorry we couldn’t have something cooler like jets flying in formation. Maybe next year!

Okay, so maybe this isn't the most flattering picture of the First Lady - nor is it the most fashionable of sports outfits around. But Mrs. Obama, seen here at the "Let's Move London" event in England, reminds us that we absolutely love a woman who can kick a soccer ball with the best of them!
This cute yellow summer dress the First Lady wore while participating in honoring the upcoming Military Spouse Appreciation Day in Washington D.C compliments her skin complexion perfectly. We don't know what shines brighter - her smile or the dress?
