Michelle Obama, the new First Lady of the United States of America is an inspiration to American women. She is an amazing role model for young women everywhere. Stay-at-home moms, working women, college graduates, and CEOs are inextricably linked to Michelle. On January 21, 2009, we saw this incredible woman hold Lincoln’s bible as she took her place in history alongside her husband, now President Barack Obama. America has fallen in love with this incredible wife, mother, and community activist. Her heart is filled with compassion for people of all nationalities and races.
She is a walking fashion statement for this generation for tall, full-footed women all over the world. On opening night, she was striking. She debuted in an elegant one-shoulder gown by Taipei-born designer Jason Wu. The first lady’s dress was made of silk chiffon embellished with organza and Swarovski crystal rhinestones and silver thread embroidery. During the dressing ceremony earlier that morning, she wore a classic lemongrass ensemble designed by Isabel Toledo. Tall women all over the world had their heads a little higher, but I’m sure they were trying to guess the size of their feet. I think I can say this with some authority. Most women who wear size 11 and up tend to try to guess other women’s shoe sizes on full feet. Well, I admitted it. I make.
Now, those of us who wear oversized shoes are no doubt curious to know what the first lady’s shoe size is. I suspect it’s a size 11 or 12. The First Lady wore a pair of green Jimmy Choo Pumps along with her Isabel Toledo ensemble. Of course, those of us who wear a size 10 and up know that Jimmy Choo has curated styles available in a size 11. It’s possible he wears a size 10. I’d love to know. I already feel a kinship with Michelle Obama. She just makes me proud. I also think we have something in common: size 11 feet. Now wouldn’t that be something? Everything is possible!
