I will get into my feelings about the State of The Union address later, but right now I want to focus a little more on the Woman behind the Man. Tonight, for the last time, I got to see First lady Michelle Obama. What a beautiful and honorable first lady we’ve had for the past seven plus years. Tonight she looked as stunning as any First Lady I’ve seen.

She wore that beautiful orange dress and her hair was absolutely laid! It was like someone really made sure that she was on 10! Her outfit seemed to compliment his to perfection. He wore that Navy Blue suit with the Blue and Black tie like the dapper man that he is and she wore that dress as if she were standing right there next to him. I’m always so interested as to how Mrs. Obama dresses when she attends various major events with the President.

She is definitely a trend setting and stylish First Lady. The arms out dresses that she wore over the years. The practical designer dresses she wore at times, you know, to show that you can be fashionable and not pay a ass load of money  to look like it. I have been extremely proud to see her in the role that she has played over the years. She has been elegant and graceful; stylish and fly; humble and real. For everything that she was portrayed in the  media at different times, she is without a doubt one of the biggest assets that the President has had over the past seven plus years in the White House.

As we get ready to say goodbye to this historic and wonderful First Family, I pause for a moment to say thank you to Mrs. Obama. She made being a Black Woman really cool, as if it already weren’t. She showed that you can be a mom, a powerful woman, a supportive wife and do it all with style and grace. You can look good doing it and you can display your anger without having to be titled the “Angry Black Woman” as she has been called before.

Thank you Michelle Obama for being the role model that you’ve been to little girls and women. You have shown how to be everything that we have all known is true about a Black Woman. Amazing woman you are and America will remember you.
