Michelle Obama's Jewelry Style

********

Whether or not you agree with her husband’s politics, you’re likely well aware that Michelle Obama’s sense of style has been met with approval. But style means more than merely donning a fashionable dress. It’s often the accessories that makes the outfit.

Pearls, pearls, pearls – Michelle Obama favors these classic stones, but she adds her own contemporary twist by wearing oversize faux pearl necklaces and gorgeous strands of color in gold and brown.

Michelle Obama’s Brooch Love: When it comes to jewelry, Michelle Obama has already made her mark with one piece that was falling out of fashion: the brooch! Mrs. Obama often wears brooches that are glitzy and fun and add a dash of personality and color to some otherwise plain dresses. The brooches she chooses to wear are sometimes high-end jewelry with diamonds and gold, but some are downright inexpensive and could even be mistaken as something made at a craft fair or fashioned by hand.

Michelle Obama’s Funky Bead Jewelry: Michelle Obama’s love of fun and funky jewelry extends into other pieces of jewelry, from necklaces to bracelets to earrings. Mrs. Obama has been spotted wearing some over-the-top glitzy rhinestone necklaces, multi-standed beaded bracelets, floral rings and brooches and even (gasp!) dangling earrings! These are not usual jewelry choices for a First Lady, where the trends in most years has been to stay with simple pearls, smaller gold pieces and a little bit of silver from time to time.

Of course, we can’t really expect her to wear handmade bead jewelry all the time, but it does look like this new First Lady likes a lot of fun and funky jewelry, so we’ll have to keep an eye out for jewelry and fashion trends she may be setting over the next four years!
